Why do we still keep saying to "try" Tammy. He had plenty of time this season and in preseason and has never repaid any of this trust. Nothing we have seen from him so far warrants further starts.

TBF, none of the 3 strikers are convincing really. It's a case of hoping we strike gold with them for the particular match or hope someone steps up and claim the starting spot as their own.

Also absolutely baffled with pedro starting he must be knackeres even having not trained the full week.
The rest is dictated by the circumstamces.

He's 21 played in 3 games that actually mean anything which is hardly plenty of time. Add into the fact we should boss the ball his pace could help get in behind and we have a pretty good option off the bench if needed for giroud.

I get it he doesn't look like the second coming of Didier and I don't think he will be the long term option. But I love how players have a couple of bad games and they are instantly disliked. If they are wearing the shirt and are putting the effort in then they have earned our support.

We have 3 strikers to choose from all season so like it or not these are the 3 we have. I'd like to see batshuayi given a run out too but he played a full game with the dev squad this week I'm sure lamps will incorporate him more going forwards if someone doesn't grab the starter spot soon.

As for Pedro he was very good first half vs Leicester (collectively we were shit second half him included) and unless we play barkley wide we don't have any other options at the moment other than Willian.

I disagree. He was not great in pre-season but he scored against Barca. We have also faced three tough teams, competitively. On paper, this is now the weakest opposition. Time has to be given. He has proven he can score goals. If we are writing him off already in August then I don't call that he has had "plenty of time". Look how many strikers take time to get in their stride.

Kante 😩

He's been like the terminator for the past few years and now it seems he's always got niggling injuries. 

Makes a tricky away fixture even tougher. Need a bit of Sarriball possession domination here to kill the crowd and take the wind out of their sails.

Barkley replacing pedro apparently.

 

Ray Charles could have seen that Pedro wasnt fit after last week.

[Magic Lamps 11,677]

not gonna say told you so, but i said pedro should not start, just pulled out injured

Here we go... Fun fun fun

we really need to be more variable tactically. all we can do is this total football pressing for 15mins and then  get tired. we neeed to be able to park the bus and tire the opponent with slow posession footy as well. And we really should do because we have plenty of experience in both and they are arguably easier. 

[Pizy 18,539]

My god, another injury!? Fuck sake.

 

[Laylabelle 9,441]

Just win...dont do stupid things! Pukki.. Need to stop him.

Ngolo is injured...again.  Should still win without him. Will he ever truly recover tho? Fucking Sarri

Expand  

he needs to sit out this and the the next game for sure

[!Hazard! 3,394]

Positive thing is Lamps seems to hate Willian as much as we do. When everyone's fit he looks to be 4th or 5th in the pecking order

[Magic Lamps 11,677]

No midfielders now on the bench. really not ideal. 

jsut mark Pukki out of the game and we will be fine. 

damn taht ground is buzzing. either score early or tire them out with posession.
