God, a Scummer followed by an Arsenal fan. No wonder this country has gone down the toilet!

We should indeed.

Southampton trio Taylor Harwood-Bellis, Flynn Downes and Tyler Dibling all serve a one-match ban on Wednesday for accumulating five bookings this season.

Loanee Lesley Ugochukwu is ineligible to face his parent club but Jan Bednarek returns after missing the last two games, while Paul Onuachu could also be fit.

 

The question is will Maresca play the Cup team or mix it up, and play a few from here and there.

It's matchday and even after a few days of thinking about this, I still have this feeling it will be mostly the cup team.

Regardless...looking forward to this.

KTBFFH

Wtf did I say!!!

 

Now I'm laying kittens until the final whistle ffs. Pls pls pls let this be easy on my heart!

Disasi to make Cameron Archer look like prime Michael Owen?

Maybe I personally overrate Saints a bit, I know they have important missings, but still, that many changes away in the PL is a bit risky. Hopefully I am wrong and we thump them five nil. Although Tosin and Disasi don't strike me with much confidence to get a clean sheet. 

Up the Blues!!! 

Hi all, has anyone managed to find the game on Amazon Prime ?

Yeah, it's on prime, watching it now.

Check under sports. Mine was on the homepage.

The only thing that calms me down a bit with this lineup, is cucu, caicedo and Palmer. 

I really do admire and agree with what he's doing so he can integrate some of the pl team to play in the knockouts. But this is definitely not good for my heart.

Just wish a few more from the PL team to be in the line up.

Come on Chelsea!!

Ballsy move by Maresca that could easily backfire, but it was the right thing to do imo. 

If we manage to get a comfy lead by HT, I expect Palmer and Caicedo to be subbed off early. Maybe even Enzo. 

Come on!

I know he’s got an eye on Tottenham but the players all rested for the European game, is he taking Southampton a bit light? Any PL team with a low block will give you trouble 

Been a while since Noni scored. 

What do we think Shed End, will he score today?

I reckon he will.

He doesn’t strike me like the type of manager to take games likely. So I believe in his mind he believes in the players on the pitch and they should win this game. 

Risky lineup for sure but we need to rotate as well because the games come at a rapid pace.

Maybe he has picked Jorgensen expecting the defence he picked will let in goals. This way he protects Sanchez?

With Felix, Madueke, Palmer and Nkunku all playing Maresca may well feel however many we let in, we will score more?

On homepage where you see Man Utd v Arsenal etc, click on ‘see more’ and all of the games will be there

It should be enough, we shall see.

He needs to keep all the players fit, happy and up on game time. 

We know he's done the job of team A and B playing the same way, with the idea he can swap players with minimum disruption. But we all agree the subs team isn't really as good as the first team and it worries me...

 

Also felix and Enzo jnr have much improved in the last few games. Hopefully they can show how much today.

Come on nkunku, Madueke, etc...time to cut out the issues and really fight for your PL spots.

I hope we beat these pricks so bad their whole sh*thole of a city ceases to exist.

Oi behave,  my Sons live near there 😉

I wonder what players like Mudryk and Veiga think about the line up. Several conference league players trusted to start but they are not.

Exactly the word I would use. He certainly backs himself which I admire.

Also where is @nonotnowjim?

We should be seeing many happy posts he does not have to see Jackson start today...

Big balls from Enzo 

We should win this, but, I just hope this many changes doesn’t insult Soton and get a reaction out of them.
