PRE/POST-MATCH DISCUSSION, LIVE CHAT AND ANALYSIS



2018/19 Premier League Matchweek 10
28th October, Sunday, 2018
Turf Moor
13:30 Kick Off (UK time)

[Vybzkartel 284]

RLC has to start or at least be on the bench, against a low block like Burnley we will need good dribblers. Also helps his coming off a hatrick his confidence will be up. Looks like Willian will start this one too. Any win will do I just want to pick up 3 points and move on we have won 1 of our last 4 league games so we need to go on a winning run since our rivals are all not dropping points.

Maurizio Sarri hints that Eden Hazard could miss Chelsea FC's trip to Burnley due to a back injury

[the wes 7,212]

RLC needs to started in this game RLC would be on a high after that hat-trick with our main goal threat Hazard being doubtful we need players on pitch who are goal threats I would play RLC Kante Barkley

[Laylabelle 9,212]

Hopefully no Europa hangover. Get job done and if other slip up it'll be lovely. Though probably not very likely 

[LAM09 6,442]

I seriously hope either Zappacosta or Emerson get a start at the weekend along with RLC.

We can't keep fielding two fullbacks that are ineffective going forward against lesser opposition.

i understand, but unless he's fit, its not worth risking a long term injury on Hazard this early in the season.

With Hazard out We should play RLC and Barkley they are more off a goal threat than Jorginho and Mateo 

[Special Juan 27,024]

Physicality is the name of their game, we must play Giroud and the Spanish tart. If Hazard isn't fit it must be Willian and Pedro.

Dropping Jorginho is a no no. Three midfield of Jorginho, Kante and Barkley/RLC

What! and you think that Emerson is more effective than Alonso getting forward?

[bigbluewillie 1,785]

We all know what the team is going to be.

Kepa

Azpi Luiz Rudiger Alonso

Jorginho Kovacic Kante

Pedro Morata Willian

[LAM09 6,442]

Yes

[bigbluewillie 1,785]

I don't don't

[jernej93 565]

With Hazard out we will need some extra creativity from our midfield so I would try and start without Kante and with Barkley/RLC - Kovacic midfield duo infront of Jorginho

With Sarri so often stressing that we need to improve defensively, I'm pretty sure for the time being he won't drop Kante in any remotely important game until he feels confident with our collective defending. Without Hazard we'll probably struggle anyway.

With no Hazard and both our strikers being absolute tosh (in terms of goals scored) I would LOVE to see Sarri just go berserk and play pinball footie versus a slow as fuck Burnley
