NikkiCFC 8,324 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 4-2-3-1. Mendy, James, Chris, Silva, Chilwell, Kovacic, Jorginho, Havertz, CHO, Ziyech, Giroud. I hope we put to bad this game early so Silva, Chilwell, Kai get some rest in the second half. Werner needs rest, CHO deserves a chance, just like Olie and Hakim should have his first start. Kante not needed. I expect us to have +70% possession so this is why I put Chris over better defenders like Zouma. Time for a first win after int. break.

Why is now different? Plus in this two games we will have like 70% possession so it will be like training to him. He had his rest against Southampton. CB position is not demanding in these type of games at all. When we are up 0:2 or 0:3 early in the second half we can make a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is now different? Because he's a year older? Because Ligue 1 isn't the same as the Premier League in terms of the pace and intensity? Moreover, it's not like he had a clean bill of health last season - https://www.transfermarkt.com/thiago-silva/leistungsdaten/spieler/29241/plus/0?saison=2019. And Lampard already said last week that he knows he'll have to manage his game time carefully. 7 minutes ago, NikkiCFC said: Plus in this two games we will have like 70% possession so it will be like training to him.

Not sure how you can confidently say that after seeing all the games we have had under Lampard...but since you're making this game sound very easy, then why play Silva at all?

The Skipper 20,609 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Need to really rest some guys here but we also have big tactical problems so can see Lampard possibly trying some stuff out here. I would like to see something like: Mendy Azpilicueta Christensen Tomori Emerson(?) Kovacic Jorginho Ziyech Mount CHO Tammy Should be enough to win right?

NikkiCFC 8,324 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Krasnodar won just 18 from possible 36 points this season in Russian PL. Mid table. They have some Swedish players. Today they lost 1:3 to Spartak and Moses scored against them. Should be easy. Also this one will have crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matvey Safonov is a really good young GKer Marcus Berg has been our Swedish National Team starting CF for ages, but he is ageing out He has almsot 300 goals for his career 5 times over 20 goals in a season, 2 times over 30 double digits in the Budesliga in a season Viktor Claesson is another SNT starter at times, and a decent winger, he scored 15 golas for Krasnodar 2 years ago Kristoffer Olsson was a starting CMF on our team here, AIK. the year we won the Allsvenskan (2018) he was a force, and it fucked us hard when he left another SNT starter at times Muzchap, The Skipper and NikkiCFC 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellzfresh 7,229 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 We need to win this. Thiago Silva should be rested. Can't risk an injury to him by over-playing him. Ziyech should start to get into full fitness. Havertz and Werner should be rested. They've played every game. Kovacic should start. Hopefully a nice 3-0 win Muzchap 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stats 7,142 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 A lot of our best football last season was when we had Kovacic and Jorginho in the double pivot. I would like to see this more starting from this game hopefully. Burnley, I defo want to see that midfield. We were 4-0 against them last season and I remember Jorginho and Kovacic controlled that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ulvhedin 526 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Would love to see CHO, Giroud, Kova, Jorginho start. And alos to give Havertz a rest and put Mount as 8/10. But of course I don't believe we will rotate so hard. My team: Mendy James Zouma Silva Chillwell Kova Jorginho Ziyech, Mount, CHO Giroud. I would start Silva and Zouma to build their experience, but I hope Silva coult be subbed out around 60 min. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DANILA 290 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 We'll win 1-0, get dominated for periods of 10-15 mins, get outshot, and Lampard will say it was a great performance. Just my prediction but hopefully we get a solid 4-0 win here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
