Iva will cost us another goal if Willian doesn't track Montero.

Thibo injured now. Confident in Begovic to do the job.

Costa starting is a big surprise, but I hope he is actually fully fit. It has backfired before. Let's start the season with a comfortable home win.

I'm guessing Costa will be out, so I would just go for Remy ahead of Falcao. I hope the team as a whole turn up. It's time to defend our title!

He can play anywhere in attacking mid. Left, right or centre.

Neither is Willian or Juan IMO, but those are the options we're stuck with.

He'll have to be content with wasting away six months of his career, if that's the case.

I'll honesty be quite shocked if he is still here once the window shuts.

At last. Great news, but let's hope whoever he's supplying does their job.

Just seems like a big surprise, seeing as the majority thought he was suspended. While a few totally forgot about it.

Why does it say 31 December 2015 on it?

I'm in agreement. One or two matches could be understandable, but not five games in a row. Mourinho/board need to open their eyes and do something about it before the window shuts.

Yep

Suspension from last season. Red card against West Brom.

Wasn't worried a few weeks ago, but I am now. No Costa and Cesc for Saturday (most likely). I hope whoever starts hits the ground running.

Only player to make the most of preseason.

Very poor half. No creativity whatsoever.

Erm... NA!

I think you're describing yourself. I don't comment or judge a player I've never watched, so please stop talking nonsense. In addition, Baba will be used as a bit part player and developed here. Rose is a poor excuse of a LB.

Happy with some of the line up, but I expected a few more first teamers to play. Not sure what to think about Juan playing as a RB.

Fact - a thing that is known or proved to be trueOpinion - a view or judgement formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge. You've got the two mixed up. It's the latter you're referring to. Happy to help. [emoji106]

Another assumption.

I was asking a question. Secondly, watching YouTube videos isn't WATCHING a player. I've seen him play full matches, so I know what we're getting.

It would be good to not make an assumption next time.
