Jase 43,479 Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 The permutation: A win at Rennes will guarantee progress to the R16, as long as Sevilla avoid defeat at Krasnodar. A draw will also be enough if Sevilla win at Krasnodar. Also worth noting that we will have 4 days of rest/preparation between this game and Spurs on Sunday.

killer1257 3,282 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I would rest Werner for Spurs and give CHO a chance. He seemed quite fresh today and deserves a start.Maybe also rest Chilwell for this one.Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk Vesper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Armour 4,439 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Time to rotate. Giroud, Azpi., CHO in. Maybe give Kai also a chance to regain match sharpness? Just need to do enough to secure qualification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoroccanBlue 5,382 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I’d even sneak Emerson here ——————Mendy—————— Dave—Zouma—Silva —Emerson ——————Jorginho————— ———Havertz———Kovacic—— Ziyech——————————CHO ——————-Giroud—————- !Hazard! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strike 7,489 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Not a fan of wholesale changes mentioned so far. There are 4 days of recovery before Spurs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 4 days of recovery before Spurs At some point we need to take calculated gambles with rotation and this game seems as good a chance as any. I wouldn't go overboard but I feel Zouma, Mount, Werner and possibly Kante need a rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea_4_eva 1,182 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Hopefully we can rest chilwell, silva, kante, werner. Mount also looked gassed at the end of our game vs newcastle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 On the pro side we ar eallowed 5 subs here so we can still take of important players when we have the game in the bag. ----------------Mendy-------------- Azpi-----Rüdi-------Thiago-----Emerson ----------------Billy---------------------- -----Kai-----------------Kovacic-------- Ziyech-------Giroud-------CHO would be my lineup, get Ziyech, Thiago and Kovacic off asap. Werner, Mount and Chilwell should sit the game out in any case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That much rotation is overkill in my opinion, we should only really be looking to rest the players who played all through the international break. Hopefully we will win this and also Sevilla which will secure top spot with a game to spare, and effectively turn Kransador at Stamford Bridge into a friendly, so then we can rest all the first team.

NikkiCFC 8,324 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Also no chance Billy starts. Frank always give a couple of sub games to players coming back from injuries. Johnnyeye, iceboy and killer1257 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is hard for us to decide how fit the players areintrianing,soi trust fL on this decision.If we win and Sevilla win we are basically qualified.

MoroccanBlue 5,382 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 I don't like celebrating any injury but Alderweireld is unavailable for Spurs. Muscle tear. Only emphasis the importance of rotation. Still think this game would be great for James, Chilwell, Kante, Mount, and Werner to get some rest.

We can get far in this if we avoid likes of Bayern. Difference between first and second spot will be massive. Laylabelle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
