ZAPHOD2319 4,818 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I wonder how much our line up will be effected by the international break. I know Ziyech had a falling out with is national manager. Is Mendy traveling home? That could put him in quarantine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZAPHOD2319 4,818 Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Mendy is playing for Senegal.

cosmicway 1,333 Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Last season it was a trick match and the bookies were robbed. The scene was set thus: We win at Villa, we finish fourth no matter what Leicester do against the Spurs. So we go to Leicester and say "listen folks we are going to win and we also have Terry stationed over there - so it's over but let us propose an alternative solution - what about we both lose ?". Leicester scratched their heads and the gentlemen's agreement was reached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stats 7,142 Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 We already have a big advantage in that Martinez and Buendia both will be unavailable for this due to traveling for Argentina's qualifying games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DH1988 1,348 Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Yikes, he did say he’s been struggling for a while so perhaps nothing that stops him playing. Ultimately, down to our fantastic medical staff to determine whether playing on it will make it worse. Thankfully Villa are without a few key players as well, so perhaps he could be benched/rested.

ZAPHOD2319 4,818 Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Silva out. Thankfully not injured, but we always lose someone because of international games. Luckily France let Kante heal, even if he is not ready to play now. bigbluewillie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikkiCFC 8,319 Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 (edited) Considering everything like minutes played during international games, injuries, suspensions and schedule this is the best lineup: Mendy Azpi Chris Chalobah CHO Saul Kovacic Alonso Ziyech Havertz Lukaku Rudiger, Jorginho, Werner and Mount played all 3 international games with last one being tonight. Tomorrow day off so only one day to prepare the game. Azpi and Kai came from the bench so they should start because they are fresher. James, Silva and Kante are out. Pulisic is playing last game in the morning in Honduras so no chance for him as well. Give Chilwell first minutes in the second half and after that start him in CL.

chelsea_4_eva 1,182 Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Seems like Puli has a slight ankle injury, not sure if fit for this match. Hopefully nothing too serius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Thankfully we have this huge squad. Thiago Silva, James suspended, Pulisic injured, Lukaku possibly out as well, maybe Mount needs a rest (will obv still start) does not even matter, we have Ziyech, CHO, Havertz and fit and/or fully rested. Still, fuck int'l football. Vesper and ZAPHOD2319 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
