magneto 0 Posted September 17 Author Report Share Posted September 17 Paul Tierney's the ref. Our one and only defeat whilst he was ref was the away loss at Arsenal last season. Link to post Share on other sites
Jarg Armani 502 Posted September 17 Report Share Posted September 17 I’m neutral about Tierney. He’s from greater Manchester so I assume he is a Ferguson sleeper cell, but he doesn’t seem to have been activated yet. Probably waiting for a key game in a title race once United stop being s***. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I think picking Keita ahead of Gini for this fixture is a huge gamble, and not one I would take. Link to post Share on other sites
Swipe 596 Posted September 17 Report Share Posted September 17 Yeah I'll be stunned if it's not Hendo, Fab, and Gini. Also not sure they'll play as many new signings as they did at Brighton. Link to post Share on other sites

I was also thinking about it from the context of the contract and not wanting have a conversation about why he is not making the first XI for one of our most difficult games. Breaking down battles by side-of-pitch, looking at Chelsea at Brighton - their right side (so side down which Keita or Wijnaldum would be stationed) was James (RB), Christiansen (RCB), Kante (RCM), Havaertz (R-AM), Loftus Cheek (#10) - contrasted to the left Alonso, Zouma, Jorginho, Mount (L-AM), Werner (more left than right) Loftus Cheek is unlikely to play, meaning it could be Kovacic back into a midfield 3 or push Havertz into #10 and bring back in Pulusic. Lampard could even swap out Loftus Cheek for a 3rd CB and go 3-4-3. Link to post Share on other sites

Also not sure they'll play as many new signings as they did at Brighton. They only played two! Would be shocked if Matip came back in, 45 minute pre season and up against a quick player like Werner would be a thing I think we'd avoid. Think he'll start the (potentially) two league cup games but Gomez stays in for the four league games. Probably see him at Everton in the fifth game to combat Calvert-Lewin.

Earl Hafler 215 Posted September 17 Report Share Posted September 17 Gomez needs to keep the line but that'll be easier with Fabinho back in the side Link to post Share on other sites

Cam 202 Posted September 17 Report Share Posted September 17 Alisson TAA Gomez VvD Robertson Henderson Fabinho Thiago Salah Firmino Mane Throw him in at the deep end. If he is outdone by Havertz just send him back to Bayern and cite a cooling-off period. Link to post Share on other sites
