One thing is for certain Tuchel didnt expect that formation or line up , would be hilarious if we stuff them with our fringe players they might not bother turning up in Istanbul.

Some flapping going on here

imagine what they going to be like when we win and pep plays same team for champs league final as it’s tried and tested hahaha
I would of swapped Dias as well and wrapped him in cotton wool ! Worst thing we could of done is gone full strength showed our hand for the final.. imagine we still got beat Jesus Christ this place would erupt .
league was done and dusted weeks ago relax and enjoy what we got left of Sergio

We won't be winning the league tonight guys, champagne on ice until next week. WHERES DE BRUYNE?.

Hes been wrapped up on cotton wool which is the smart thing to do considering he had an ice pack on his hamstring on Tuesday

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

Keeping Liverpool out of the top 4?

 

[LongsightM13]

However we line up today, it definitely won’t be how the BBC are predicting. State of this

 

[Gumzy97]

Midfield going to get over run.

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

Personally think this is a missed opportunity, but what do I know ....

 

[city986]

Box of frogs that team ,fucking love it pep

 

[DMA's]

The last thing we want is a pulled hamstring due to fatigue. Pep has also mentioned he wants everyone to feel involved in the lead up to the champions league final. Not sure what some people where expecting it was pretty obvious we would see wholesale changes. The league is won it is all about keeping everyone fresh and happy going into the biggest game of our clubs history.

Some posters are so entitled it’s embarrassing at times

 

[mccity]

Has to be, nothing else makes much sense to me.

Just you wait. Midfield 3 of Rodri, Sterling, and Jesus, with Mendy joining the attack!

 

[Akpowell]

What's the Chelsea team

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

???? No it doesn't if it doesn't know our strongest lineup he's in the wrong job. Unless we are resting players for the champions league final.

He knows who we're going to play, and how we're going to play. But he won't get a practice run against them today.

 

[paulchapo]

If we win with that lineup it would be fucking great. Surely Jesus and Sterling have to find some form and goals at some point? I've no idea how we'll set up and neither will Tuchel.

 

[BLUEMATT23]

Final 3 weeks off
Wrap the league up we can then rest key players
Sterling and Mendy woefully out of form.
Just don't get it at all
Very disappointed in that selection

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Close to full strength.

Wouldn't say that, no Mount?

 

[mac]

Another bonus is if we dont win today the raggies will riot again

 

[GaudinoMotors]

The bald c"#nt, can't he let me enjoy at least one line-up?

To the match day thread!

 

[Revolver]

It’s not the end of the world as we have enough games to get over the line. But to me there are too many changes against a team that will be well organised. Unless Chelsea have an off night it will be tomorrow at the earlier till we win he league. Hope I am wrong. I often am.

 

[Project]

Why do people keep saying “keep guessing for the final”. It wont.

It’s one thing for a Chelsea defender to know what team we will play for the final - another entirely to know what it will be like to play the false 9 City.

So it does keep them guessing.

 

[Franknorgrovesnephew]

Don't know why city got pep to sign a new contract as we have the bluemoon mangers every game who think they are better qualified than him and his backroom staff. Give it a fucking rest it's getting boring as fuck
