Defend better then did against Watford and Roma..and so on

[Pizy 18,418]

Although Conte says Kante is probably ready, I would save him for Roma. I would love to see a midfield 3 of Baka, Cesc, and Drinkwater for this one with that front 2 of Morata and Hazard that we've seen before. Think it could work very well.

We really need to control and dominate the middle of the pitch for us to play our best and we simply cannot do so with a Baka/Cesc pairing alone.

United, LFC gonna be hard. With Roma we must play different style then last time. And others game are must win. In this week KFC play with Utd, draw sounds well for us. We must take 3 points and make 2/1 points to second/third place.

Worth noting that we only have 2 days of rest between the Qarabag and Liverpool games. If we thought playing Atletico and City in 4 days was bad, this might well be even worse.

Yikes. This next month or so will really show us how our season will go. We'll probably know right before the Liverpool match whether it'll be a good season or a horror show.

Thankfully Drinkwater is back. Kante is coming back. 

Team would have been run over if Bakayoko and Fabregas were in midfield for that run

[Special Juan 27,439]

Tibo

Azpi Luiz Rudiger

Zappacosta                                      Alonso

Kante    Drinkwater

I don't see how it can be worse than the Atletico, City fixtures. 

At least now we have 4 midfielders ready to play in the first XI...

As for the Qarabag match, We should be able to rest a few of the first teamers and still get a result (if we are serious about making a UCL run this season).

I  hope that lfc will not get in form fotr match with us. For Qarabag we should start with second squad.

[Special Juan 27,439]

Kante and Moses still out.

[Pizy 18,418]

Think Kante could probably play this if we were desperate but glad Conte is being cautious and patient. 

Really hope for a midfield 3 tomorrow. Please!

Switch Kante (injured) with Bakayoko and this is the team I would like to see. Maybe Fabregas for Pedro for 3-5-2, but Fab has been poor recently so I'm not too sure about that.

It's only one extra midfielder. In any case, my point was more about the traveling. Going to Azerbaijan, playing on Wednesday, coming back on god knows what time on Thursday morning, having less than a day to rest/prepare, then heading off to Liverpool on late Friday etc. Plus we all know Liverpool are going to go full throttle at us at Anfield and the crowd is going to be pumped up.

It all depends on the matchday 4's results. If we lose at Roma and Atletico beat Qarabag, then there's only 3 points separating Roma, us and Atletico, making the Qarabag match a MUST win game and likely forcing Conte to play a strong XI. Can't afford to be underestimating them anyway considering Roma only just beat them and Atletico didn't even do that.
