If Son is fit and Sanchez/Dier play as well as the first three games we can possibly win this. I would love to see Tanguy also. My wrong guess is:
Lloris
Sanchez- Romero-Dier
Emerson Reguilon
Hojberg - LoCelso
Dele
Kane-Son
No we are notWe’re going to beat them
It is delusional. The kid is barely ready to play ECL football now they want to play him against the current Champions league winners. Bizarre the straws that people will clutch onto when they are desperate.I can't believe we're seeing suggestions that Scarlett should/could start (in Son's absence) against the likes of Rudiger and Silva. Is there a joke I'm missing?
I'm not quite as fearful of this as I should be. Obviously the likely outcome is that we lose to the better team, but Nuno teams generally fare pretty well against the top sides. We'll keep it right, and hopefully Son is fit to give us some chance of scoring.
It's delusional, but we may play Winks, that's even worse.It is delusional. The kid is barely ready to play ECL football now they want to play him against the current Champions league winners. Bizarre the straws that people will clutch onto when they are desperate.
If he starts Winks against Kante/Jorginho he should be fired on the spot.It's delusional, but we may play Winks, that's even worse.
It’s mental we loaned Sarr back, he’d walk into our midfield and improve it, even at the young age he is
I’m kind of assuming that Dele will be picked tomorrow. If it were up to me I’d put NDombeleSwap Dele for Gil or NDombele and it looks potentially good.
Sad to see the decline of him and the team.This team was proper meat and two veg. Oh god it feels so long ago....
Why would PEH give them something to think about? In this sort of game, he reverts to pointing and booting the ball back to our centre backs or worse still, Lloris. I would start him but have him charging about the middle third, not taking the ball from deep, that’s SkippLets go for it, PEH, Dele (because he might spring up with the odd goal), Ndombele, Gill should all play, At least give Chelsea something to think about.
I'm not talking about PEH, I'm talking about the other 3, I've grown to love PEH, why? Because of his attitude he tries hard every game. If only Ndomble or Dele had his attitude.Why would PEH give them something to think about?

completely agree on the other three, should happen if Lucas and Berg are out
Gotcha, agree re attitude. I just think he has a tendency to take the (very) easy option when pressured. A better coach would push him to try a bit more….
