bigbluewillie 1,930 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 My spuds buddy's tell me Son is out, surely we can beat them without Kane as well. But please Frank play Giroud at least. I am a rare one but i have been a believer in Bats coming good..until Monday's debacle and yes I was wrong he's fucking awful, that aside the ref was and is a cunt, Bats is a useless cunt. And I would go Frank's team as with Simon Phillips suggestion, looks good to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZAPHOD2319 4,818 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Put Pulisic in and move Mount to the midfield and That is the lineup I would like,,,,unless RLC is ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that the prevailing expectation of the outcome is we'll lose this (not without good reasons) but are you ever gonna be positive about Chelsea? If we lose this, you're gonna come here and rant. If we win this, you're gonna call it a fluke. If we are to somehow get our season back on track, it has to start from somewhere, right? bigbluewillie and killer1257 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is I'm left disappointed almost every other week, I don't even feel the same excitement when one of our matches arrives, Lampard has completely sucked me dry. For example I was pretty sure we get a result at United and Newcastle but didn't post here because I was afraid I would jinx it, the reality was I didn't even need to jinx it because we lost anyways. I feel like we can get a result with Tottenham as well based on Willian and Mount who seem to be fired up against Tottenham while they missing 2 crucial players but again means shit we lost to Newcastle and Bournemouth with half of their fucking teams injured and relegation form.

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Son and Kane our does not really make a difference. The team manUre fielded on Mon was a pile of shit as well. We tore their Defence to shreds, created a gazillion chances like we always do and then almost on purpose somehow miss them all. As long as we are this wasteful every team in the world can beat us. It started under Conte again, then under Sarri and now we are at our worst in terms of conversion. Our attack and Defence are average at best and out goalies and centeforwards are average and out of form. No wonder we are leaking goals and scoring none. The failed Jan transfer window cost us top4 And probably top 5 as well. Laylabelle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So based on our performances and that...dont really expect a win. Or we will and lose to Bournemouth again lol. Just cause that's how we roll. Just dont want another game of all the ball..most chances but once again it's a loss. Gotta start putting them away some point surely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iirc in the Conte title we didn't create much half the time but always scored when the chances arrived. Not even swapping Costa for Morata should have resulted in such a drastic switch, maybe the fact we tend to concede any chance we allow results in anxiety from the forwards? City were even more wasteful during the Claudio Bravo banter season then as soon as Ederson was in their conversion rate shot up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikkiCFC 8,324 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 United didn't score in 3 PL games before our game. And look how clueless Spurs look in attack? We know what's going to happen... It would be embarrassing if we concede against this Spurs side. Not to mention they play CL match just 60 hours before our clash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fulham Broadway 17,315 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Play with a back 3 with wing backs. Bring Zouma and tomori back in. Kepa back in goal. Reece james and Alonso whipping balls in for Giroud. With kante out, back to the jorginho / kovacic partnership in midfield, which worked well when we went on that winning run earlier in the season - likewise for Zouma and tomori. bigbluewillie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoroccanBlue 5,382 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Saw someone post this lineup and I agree 100%.

They are in better form than us but they in no way have a better squad. If we played Lepzig in the manner of which we were playing at the start of the season with a full fit squad, we would beat them comfortably. I guess that is irrelevant as they arent the circumstances now. bigbluewillie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
