Milan 17,731 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 First place is secured. No first team player should even leave England. Give others their chance. Let's see what Danny Drinkwater has in his pocket... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see what Danny Drinkwater has in his pocket... He is not in the EL squad so he won't be able to play. But hopefully the likes of CHO and Ampadu are able to impress again. Will be interesting to see if he starts both Giroud and Morata together or one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will he be able even if he wanted to? I imagine most if not all have played in the UYL which makes them ineligible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caballero Zappacosta Cahill Christensen Emerson Fabregas Barkley Loftus-Cheek Hudson-Odoi Willian Giroud Could maybe throw in Ampadu for someone in there. But guess what I was trying to say in the previous post is that Sarri might unexpectedly play someone like Kante, Kepa etc. It's already not ideal that some other players would have to travel to Hungary just to fill up the bench...

Ampadu in for Cahill would be nice. Dont think the team will be too dissimilar to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase 43,478 Posted December 12, 2018 Author Share Posted December 12, 2018 The squad for this game... https://www.chelseafc.com/en/news/2018/12/12/blues-touch-down-in-hungary Willy Caballero Marcin Bulka Jamie Cumming Davide Zappacosta Ethan Ampadu Andreas Christensen David Luiz Emerson Marcos Alonso Cesc Fabregas Jorginho Ruben Loftus-Cheek Ross Barkley George McEachran Willian Pedro Callum Hudson-Odoi Alvaro Morata Olivier Giroud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhForAGreavsie 5,608 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 I'd go really radical and play: - Marcin Davide, Andreas, Ethan, Emerson George, Ruben, Ross Willian, Olivier, Callum Then I'd look to use Callum, Ethan & George for no more than 70 minutes to rest them for the big 18s game on Monday night. I know not everyone would see it that way, and probably won't see the point of Callum or Ethan playing in that game, but I really enjoy the youth cup and really want to get that record. United are quite probably the best U18s side in the country this year and of course they've got a big motivation to stop us taking away their record. All in all, away to United is the toughest draw we could get for our first game in this year's competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea, Arsenal, Napoli, Shaktar, Inter + few more would surely have enough quality to play in CL knockout stages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
