cosmicway 1,333 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 The top Spanish sides are not doing so great either. Real-Barca and Sevilla lost yesterday and the day before. Only Atletico won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a designated holding midfielder. Even bloody Jorginho, whos a holding midfielder, doesn't sit! Either the players deliberately disobey Lampard's instructions or Lampard genuinely wants all 6 midfielders/attackers to press with no one holding back to prevent a counter.

Keepers don't really get in a lot of physical battles, so even if he starts he stays fit in my opinion. Muzchap 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alabama 1,992 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Even if he has to be rush back...please Lampard do Kepa is so bad....arguably the worst starting goalkeeper in Europe right now... Muzchap 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoroccanBlue 5,382 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 The journalists are just responding to the fact Mendy trained with the team. We have no idea if he's match ready/fit. Which is a reason why Lampard said what he said. Muzchap 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it not a muscle injury? Look at what happened to Rudiger, Kante, Emerson and Hudson-Odoi last season. No point in continuing along the same path, or it will potentially get worse and then we will be stuck without him for longer. Would be hugely irresponsible. Even more so considering the fact we've already made these mistakes last season. If Frank thinks rushing him back and Mendy is not even close to being fully recovered, he would be incredibly naïve to do so. Even with Kepa, play Caballero. I will be interested to see what happens, if he did play and he ended up injured again for longer. Like Rudiger and Emerson last season which it didn't seem to irk as many people as it should have as it is poor management and planning. I suppose with 5 subs its not a major issue but still, don't take the chance just play Willy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZAPHOD2319 4,819 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 I think it is important to remember that when he came back from International duty, the tests they ran did not show a major injury. I hope he is fit and in the lineup. I really want us to start a roll and win CL matches and climb the table while the gap is small.

Last Sicarius 610 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 If Kepa will start we will not het any points. Hope for Mendy but if not, than Caba. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutcho 8,443 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Why do we want lamps to be honest with the press. Yeah just tell everyone who's playing before hand. Let sevilla game plan for shots from everywhere if kepas at goal and making him uncomfortable at set pieces.Be great if mendy is fit. Confidence is a huge thing and the defence will be better if they have a better keeper in goal. Muzchap and kellzfresh 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azul 1,615 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 I hope Kovacic starts against Sevilla. Jorginho can't handle pressure and I feel like Kovacic-Kante duo could work if Kante sits in front of the centre backs while Kovacic is playing a box-to-box role. Sevilla's pressure is basically like Southampton but on steroids. We need fast twitch midfielders like Kovacic to move with the ball and bring it forward to our attackers. Jorginho is very slow and he always chokes under pressure, I hope Lampard realizes that and changes his midfield for this game. kellzfresh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
