Am I confident against Valencia? Nope. 

Our play is so inconsistent right now in games let alone between games. We can look at one point absolutely have no clue on how to progreas the ball to suddenly score bunch of goals and at the same time concede goal after goal. It feel like every game is a roulette. 

 

 

 

it's a team full of youths, so it's normal that every game is a roulette and it was clear from the beginning of the season

This season is getting the hang of it season, getting to know the system, the players, the chemistry and our weaknesses. Next season with quality additions we will race.

Maybe this or Pulisic/Barkley/Pedro  , Abraham/Giroud .

[!Hazard! 3,394]

Tomori-Christensen-Azpi backline would be ideal given the circumstances. But who would play RWB then? Pedro?

Nevertheless, 3-5-2 or 3-6-1 might the way to go. Valencia plays 4-4-2 so a back 3 would take care of their two attackers and we could still have 3vs2 or 4vs2 advantage in central midfield

[Special Juan 27,101]

Fancy us 2-0 here.

[Jase 43,479]

Two former Arsenal players in their lineup...

[Jase 43,479]

Just the one change from Saturday's XI - Zouma in for Rudiger. 

[Jase 43,479]

The lack of rotation is surprising. Hope no repeat of the Leicester game... 

[nachikethas 1,149]

All set!

[Hutcho 8,443]

Come on chels!

Who else was realistically going to come in?

Change of CF was the only thing that seemed possible had Abraham not been fully fit.

[Abreu03 292]

Willian AGAIN? Fuck off

[Pizy 17,860]

Genuinely surprised that we didn't make a single change from the team that finished the Wolves match. Thought for sure Frank would want to get a few others 90 minutes of CL football. Pulisic and Pedro could use the minutes.

[Atomiswave 6,072]

Good man, 343 suits us and we have the players. Pedro and Puli will come on as subs....

[Fernando 6,376]

I'm pessimistic with Zouma in the team. 

[Hutcho 8,443]

Willian AGAIN? Fuck off

He had his worst game I've ever seen vs Leicester when he came on. But he was good vs wolves so don't get the hate.

Pulisic etc are great bench options if we need. Lack of rotation somewhat expected given the injuries other than 1 or 2 potentials

@Vesper I need you right now

 

EDIT: Nevermind, I thought the match had already started
