Don't forget the article right after Lampard was sacked - the board did not like Lampard's Kepa treatment, they still believe in him. 🤬

A back four of Kepa, Rudiger, Christensen and a past it Azpilicueta is the stuff of nightmares. 🥶

Pretty sure it's a back 3/5 with CHO at RWB again.

[Jase 43,479]

Tuchel has really put himself in an awkward position, regardless of how Kepa does tonight.

Said it before, this is one of the problems when we get a new manager in, especially mid-season...

Mentally recovering from what exactly?

How the fuck are we starting kepa. I went from super confident to nervous about that game. Sure he made some good saves vs Barnsley but he also flapped at 1 which tammy had to clear off the line. Mind boggling.

Only god fucking knows. Mendy has 3 clean sheets in 4 games under Tuchel and the one goal he conceded was a Rudiger brainfart. Hasn't done much wrong elsewhere too and suddenly gets dropped. This selection reeks of the board getting involved one way or another.

[Hutcho 8,443]

I'd maybe understand if mendy had a few shockers. But he's never conceded a goal under tuchel other than rudiger. 

I hope it doesn't cost us but I'm worried long term if he can bring kepa back in

Kepa, Abraham and Alonso. Big calls. Lets see how we get on. Wasnt too bothered with Kepa’s performance midweek and I think his distribution is a big plus for us really. Newcastle arent really a big side so a bit surprised Alonso’s starting but lets see how he does.

Kepa whoa. Why is being a Chelsea fan so taxing? Im not sure I have the emotional budget for Kepa again?

Lets see what happens.....kill them in first half and we are golden.

Kepa starts... 

LMAO!

Those reports from the Athletic ARE true.

Maria wants Kepa to be the starting goalkeeper they spent 70mill on.

Absolutely ridiculous.
