Chelsea_firstlove 178 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 No Willian and Rudiger. I love this starting XI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Not a fan of 3atb against these type of teams but unlike Southampton atleast the appropriate players are being used this time (ala natural fullback on the back three for balance sake and two wingbacks with end product). Should only ever be considered if Azpi, James and Marcos are all available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Kante 1,643 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Not too surprised by the line up, I thought he would stick with 343/351 as whilst it is not ideal it is more suited to us than 433 where we are wide open to the counter all the time. As for starting XI, I am not surprised Alonso starts. I say this as after Giroud he is our most dangerous player that is fit. Further who actually wants to see Emerson again? Willian looks like he will be on his way out. If he cannot get in ahead of Barkley and Pedro when both CHO and Puli are injured then that speaks volumes. Mount is not going to play wide, he will be behind Giroud. Width is going to come from Alonso and James. Good to see Tomori back and that AC looks as if he is CB1. For me, whilst AC lacks aggression and physicality, he actually does the basics of defending pretty well i.e. positioning, showing the defender down the lines, not allowing himself to get caught cold by ball watching etc. Obviously he has his flaws but as a CB he actually appears to know how to play the position in a mature manner than the other three. Lastly, happy to see Kepa on the bench again. Bloke is an absolute liability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesper 30,185 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Kepa surely is out the door this summer I cannot believe we are going to have to rely on the dodgy Willy for the last 15 games of the year what a fucking cock-up by the board £142m dropped and we have a 38yo shaky as fuck keeper to hitch our little blue wagon to King Kante, bigbluewillie, Atomiswave and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 In terms of movement and combination play we quite possibly have the 5 most suitable players (in the midfield and front) out on the pitch. If only Oli and Pedro were a few years younger. !Hazard! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can FL get to that level? Possibly, but as of right now Poch is far superior overall. Its not fair either as FL has 1 year experience.

It will almost be an identical situation to Claudio Bravo where he stays as a (very expensive) back up to the new keeper while Willy walks on a free. That's assuming Kepa doesn't use this as a kick up the arse, I think he will get one more chance, starting with the Liverpool game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
