Word is that he's not fully fit yet, given his ankle problem.

Matt Law says otherwise.

Weird team. Do not like Alonso but makes sense as Chilly played last game for England. Werner prolly given the chance to redeem himself. havertz started for Germany as well so is rested

[NikkiCFC 7,953]

That was easiest team to guess. 

I like how Tommy is thinking. 👍

[NikkiCFC 7,953]

We may break possession record here. 

[Pizy 18,368]

That West Brom team is absolutely diabolical. I see almost zero quality in their XI.

So we’ll make extremely hard work of this somehow. 😂

Better not fucking lose...

But I question the wisdom of starting Werner as the central striker in this particular fixture.

Not sure either. Their lineup looks like they will park an aircraft carrier so both Giroud and Havertz would work better in tight spaces.

Yeah. Thought he would start on the left or right instead. Understandable to rest Havertz but think Giroud also didn't play too much during the recent France games. 

[Pizy 18,368]

Their strategy is surely going to be to frustrate and defend with their entire team parked around their box and then bring on that ugly mutant that scored a couple against us earlier in the season to try and steal 3 points.

Only way it works is if we play slow zombie football like we’ve done in this sort of game many times in recent years. 

[Laylabelle 9,359]

Hopefully we can make chances count 

[Muzchap 8,966]

Just need to get a few goals quickly.

I hate these early kick offs always a lottery as to how we turn up.

 

[Muzchap 8,966]

Decent start but crossing to small players. Play to feet and get a penalty 

[Milan 17,854]

ffs Jorginho wtf was that

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,919]

Real lax for Jorgi there.
