Im not sure how to approach this game? I felt confident against Utd and we played good defense but had not teeth in attack. I stress about Liverpool and we were good on both sides...

 

Pretty stressed about this one 😉

Home game, will probably have lots of the ball against a deep Everton defense. Would play CHO on the right and Kovacic instead of Kante here

Def must be flawleys again. Richarlison is in very good form, Calvert-Lewin also dangerous.

Ha! That's what we all thought against United last weekend and look what happened, especially in the first half. 

[MoroccanBlue 5,302]

Quite confident about this. We naïvely played into their hands the first fixture. Tuchel has brought control within the team again and I can't honestly see Everton getting a sniff. Just a matter of if we convert our chances. 

[NikkiCFC 7,953]

City win against United and we win here. Just one point behind them.

Mendy

Thiago Silva----Christensen-----Rudiger

CHO-------------Jorginho---------Kovacic--------------Chilwell

Mount

Giroud---Pulisic

[ZAPHOD2319 4,479]

I don't see Pulisic getting a start until he forces his way in with a sub performance that has people talking. He has not been bad, but he has not been great.

Nope! I hope and think it's going to be as per V Pool, definately want Timo up front again, Pulisic aint ready for a start yet.

Thiago in as much as I like him, as regards to breaking up the back 3, they are really playing well together. and if it aint broke don't fix it.

[ZaynChelsea 423]

Converting chances into goals is what we will need. Tuchel will again make sure that our attackers come near the goal but it‘s the job of our players to score. Very confident about the match, would be very disappointing to not get 3 points.

Except Tuchel likes to rotate

Even so, there's no need to rush Silva back in straight way especially when the back 3 now is working well and Pulisic certainly doesn't deserve to start in a big game like this. 

[ZaynChelsea 423]

Who would have thought when Thiago was injured that we would be struggling to put him back into the team when he is fit since Christensen played like Baresi. Amazing.
