Looks like we won't have a new DM in time.

Strike two.

My only plea for the club is that they don't start with Enzo and Gallagher in the double pivot. Disaster in the making.

Man can't score to save his life, but he is a good player so would expect him to have a good game if they rush him in the lineup. Feels a little too late for him to play tbh - had been thinking if he joined us he probably wouldn't at this stage.

Salah I assume?

He's been on fire for them this preseason.

After that apology he gave to Pool fans end of last season, he'll be determined to make amends.

Fucking great start to the season, Nkunku out, and Caicedo lines up against us.

[Milan 17,854]

Dugout change confirmed by Poch - the sides are being swapped, Chelsea's bench now on the right.

[Special Juan 27,429]

Based on the Liverpool presser with Poch sounds like we are targeting a short, medium and long term option with Nkunku out injured.

This game could not have better pre hype. It's going to be crazy!

[ZAPHOD2319 4,479]

There is no way that both teams are not completely distracted in training.

Think our starting XI is better than theirs?
Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Mac Allister, Szoboszlai, Gakpo; Salah, Diaz, Jota

If you say "yes" congrats, this was a test and you've won. 😅

That midfield though isn't very defensive, is it?

yeah that's their "expected" starting XI, but I also find it hard to believe esp for an away match.
