Tammy not in the squad

Whilst I am not surprised I do find it frustrating Tuchel has given Timo countless chances and hasnt tried Tammy a bit more. I suppose one cost 52m and one is from the academy. Looks like he will be off for sure this summer.

That probably means Gilmour is.

Not necessarily. I mean look at the game v Porto. Abraham was in but we had no CMs on the bench, even without Kovacic.

Plus I am sure for the cup games you aren’t allowed the same size of bench as the CL? Pretty sure its only 9.

I think we can forget about Billy and Tammy featuring in anything meaningful for the remainder of the season. TT wants a trophy and will not make experiments. Whilst I can understand it with Gilmour who has looked out of his depth in many games where the pressure was on, I can not really see it with Tammy. Esp when we want to play on the counter attack he is a decent alternative. He also has a good record of scoring vs shitty teams, so he should at least have seen some time vs Porto and Crystal Palace. Anyway, my biggest ocncern is that we will most probably be totally useless in midfield with Jorginho being passed by again and again while Kante fucks up our few chances to counterattack with the result us being camped around our own box waiting for KDB or another of their countless wC players to hammer one in the top corner. The thing vs City is you can defend as good as you want, more often than not someone is popping up with something outreageous out of nothing. We have to take our chances. that is the imperative

I'd like to see something like this:     

zouma- christiensen- rudiger
CHO- Kovacic- gilmour- chilwell
          Mount- pulisic
                 Giroud(havertz)

Yes but Kova, Chris, Tammy are out. Billy should be in 20 players squad unless some youngster is ahead of him which I cannot see.

That makes little sense as if he was under pressure to give players a chance due to their price tag Kepa would have been the first one back in.

[NikkiCFC 8,116]

Kepa, Werner, Ziyech...

[milka 3,372]

😅😅😅

so Tuchel like Klopp hate FA Cup .

[NikkiCFC 8,116]

Why not CHO?

[Azul 1,615]

I struggle to see where the goals are coming from. Werner-Ziyech-Mount is not a good trio in my opinion.

I agree. Plus weaker pairing of wing backs (offensively).

[DDA 9,769]

Kepa!

Dear God.. we are fucked. 

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,920]

I only see this going one way tbf.

[Tomo 21,741]

First time Thiago Silva and Kepa have played together so if the former finally starts looking his age after this we'll know why.
