You forgot about Lewis Baker who played CB against Bournemouth

Ouch.. Silva will be out aswell. If James is out too then Christensen and Chalobah are the only available options(not counting Sarr), so Azpi have to play RCB and CHO wingback. TT will be short handed.

Tuchel said he will be unavailable against Malmö aswell because of quarantine.

Average, average, still we are on top of the league and we already visited Spurs, Liverpool, and hosted City and Arsenal after 7 rounds. Our upcoming games will be against Brentford, Malmö, Norwich, Southampton, Malmö, Newcastle, Malmö and Norwich. If we don't waste many points in these games we'll have no reason to complain.

Brighton's Yves Bissouma is rumoured to have been arrested for sexual assault. Shit.. Mendy, Sigurdsson, now Bissouma.

Newcastle is a great town, they have a beautiful stadium and many fans, they deserve a better team than this Ritchie-Lascelles-Longstaff-Joelinton nightmare. I don't know how serious the Saudis are but either way they will need a few years to be competitive. City's first signings after takeover were better players of midtable PL-teams(Santa Cruz, Lescott, Barry, Given) or secondary players from top sides(Bridge, SWP, Robinho, Vieira). I can see Castle will follow same footsteps.

We are linked with Nkunku and Wirtz. I would accept the Frenchman to replace Pulisic in a heartbeat, he is lit. https://weaintgotnohistory.sbnation.com/Chelsea-fc-transfer-rumours-news/2021/10/5/22710035/Chelsea-linked-with-bundesliga-hotshots-christopher-nkunku-florian-wirtz

Gotta mention Livramento, he plays very mature every week at Soton despite joining them few months ago without one single professional performance. Good choice for him to leave, good choice for us to set buyback option. I can see as activate it soon.

What do you mean? What the club are supposed to do?

This shouldn’t be a foul in U16 female chess.. JK

Please find a way to disallow Chalobahs goal retrospectively also.. Ridiculous.. Is it illegal now to touch each other in football?

2 PL goals already for Chalobah, amazing.. So far so good

Shaking things up.. Not bad Livramento also one to watch.

Kante available? No carantine anymore?

City and Liverpool playing against each other. Would be great if we won adn they played a draw.

Named in England squad for WC qualifiers. Looks like new about his injury could last for three months for not true. Still I'm worried they make him play when not fully fit like Déschamps doing it with Kanté regularly.

I have my faith in Tuchel, I’m very much willing to believe he neglects him for good reason.

Next two games are against Shakhtar for them, if they can manage to reach at least a draw they are likely to play in the Europe League next spring. Amazing.. Tiraspol is a capital of de facto nation Transnistria, around 100k inhabitants. And their team won in Bernabeu.

Fucking idiot

This is something every top club have to deal with. At least this situation is predictable. Any player can get injured and be sidelined for long time.. Look at Van Dijk.. Of course Liverpool didn’t have a back up as good as him. If our def keeps performing well we should be fine with Kepa.

Stones, Laporte, Zinchenko, Rodri and Gündogan are all doubtful for City.

Nice winning goal from him

Sorry but who would you comfortable with? Oblak, Donnarumma? Kepa gained his confidence back, haven't had a bad game under Tuchel. Obviously, Méndy is better and undoubtly he is the first choice but we cannot really keep better backup because of AFCON. ~15 years ago we had AFCONs when key players like Drogba, Mikel, Kalou or Essien were absent. Without Mendy and Mahrez we should be fine.

I'm not saying I watch Milan week-bye-week, but saw them several times last season. Not impressed by him at all. I don't feel getting a new LB is a priority. With Alonso and Chilwell we have two different type of players, both of them can perform in high level when in shape. If I had to chose, I like the Pedraza guy from Villarreal(hovewer I only saw him a couple of times in EL last season) and I think Matt Targett would also do the job for us. Theo would be a luxury signing, could use him against weaker sides who park the bus against us.
