Even if we don't I like that idea. Conceding that number of goals 100% means we will win title. Basically we are competing with ourselves and City, Liverpool become irrelevant in any conversation.
OneMoSalah tagged me also after he made assist against Arsenal now you are doing the same after his first good game in 5 months. He was close to 6 months without scoring. Imagine if I do the same after his every bad performance🤷♂️
You waited 6 months to do this which I can do every 3 days.
After last season I used argument that if you don't count relegated teams and set pieces he had 1g and 0a in PL. If I can say something similar after this season again, that's definitely not a good thing.
He doesn't need rest. And he is best keeper in the world. But TT since arriving always play Kepa in b2b games. Sometimes he plays before Cup game, sometimes after. Norwich at home is easier than Newcastle away so this is why people expect to see Kepa. It has nothing to do with Mendy really.
And don't forget without Kepa we would not win Super Cup and would be already out of Carabao Cup and state of the club and fans would be much worse so he deserves to play here and there more than many outfield players we see far often.
Last 2 games at Stamford Bridge were losses in this kick off. City this season and WBA last season. Even 2 games before that in early kick off we didn't win. Leeds and Southampton away.
Kepa always play b2b games under TT when we play Cup so I think he will start here. Newcastle can be tricky next week.
CHO, Havertz sure thing in attack and I expect Kova and James back in the lineup.
CHO/Havertz have some good chemistry.
Krasnodar, WBA, City, Palace and today. 5 goals they assisted each other. Dont have exact stats but considering limited game time CHO has I imagine they spent very little time together on the pitch.
This is his chance. Many attackers out now.
Havertz will start as false number 9. Mount/Ziyech for 2nd spot and we need that 3rd fast player in attack CHO/Pulisic.
