I hope we go 3-4-3 instead of 3-5-2. Brighton are quite solid defensively. If we play with 3 CM I suspect we will have difficulties breaking down their defence. I would prefer we go with Pedro/Willian, Morata and Hazard. While the 3-5-2 provides us more solidarity, we have more chances of breaking them down if we go 3-4-3.  I read somewhere that we are the lowest scorers in the top 6. I think in these games there is no need to have 3 CM. Espc when majority of them are all work horses and none offer a goal threat from out the box.

Hoping to see Pedro, Hazard and Morata up front. Brighton have played the biggest teams in the league this season and not one of them has one convincingly. This is why I would prefer us to go out with all our attacking threat.

But dont you think that Cescy is one of those things we need to break down those defences?

I want just for a game we play drinkwater and cesc together from the 1st minute. We need more creator in our team

[Jase 43,479]

Christensen rested apparently.

Yeah OK. I hope we just go on the offence. I'll give us a 4-0

With Ampadu on the bench?

[Polo7 3,496]

Cahill in the middle....fml this isnt going to go well. 

[communicate 2,703]

With Cahill in the middle maybe Conte will play fab as the deepest midfielder and allow Kante and Bakayoko to bomb forward

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,919]

Glad I didnt bring Christensen in my fantasy team this week.

[DYC. 7,542]

3-5-2 at home. Against Brighton. With Kante and Bakayoko in midfield. I really don't care for this development.

[FabHazard 655]

That Central CB position is going to be a mess...Cahill is not suited to that position....We will struggle in our build up play.
