Lets go boysssssssssssssssss

 

[der bomber28]

Got to admit, I’m flapping a bit more at the absence of Dias. :/

 

[JGL07]

Lord Hawhaw.

He was Irish.

I think kdb will roam like a free range chicken but he will play as 9 most of the time.

Hope he's not like the one I've just put in the ninja foodi, it's looking a little unmatch fit atm. It's only for the cat anyway

 

[knuckles]

I'm glad BT hate Chelsea more than us. They almost uttered some good words about us

Almost! - Although really I suspect they would like us both to lose if that was possible - gits

 

[wolviedinho]

Lump it to lukaku and hope for a mistake is the Chavs game plan then moan that they have no players with a star studded bench.

Football politicking.

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

BT with their usual desperation for us to lose.

Lescott represents us well and talks sense, he's a good pundit.

 

[kaz7]

Whats his name jake , i am really looking foward to this game , not watched the chavs much then lol

 

[Dadsupportedthem]

Is anyone's bt picture fucked?

He is when he can get a word in between the Rag, the Chelsea fan and Jake the c*nt.

Surprised Werner is not starting..His runs in behind is the main weapon they use against us usually. If Bernie turns up with his two engine lungs then we should have a solid advantage..

mines ok

After all the mystery and conjecture, about who or who wasn’t out with covid, I’m well chuffed to see our line-up.
If KDB has got his mojo back then I think this is a sure fire win, if he’s still fading in and out of games then I worry that we’ll struggle.

Fingers crossed that he shines for us!

 

[Asa's left peg]

It's almost as if BT can't think of anything to say about us.
I have it as - one city pundit - 2 chelsea - 1 utd - 1 Liverpool - 1 independent

 

[PragueBlue]

Would have preferred Gundogan over KDB for this. Our midfield 3 is better in these tougher matches with Bernardo, Rodri and Gundogan. KDB just leaves too much space for the counter.

It will be interesting to see who plays where in the front 3 as all 3 probably favour the left side. I suspect Grealish on the left, Serling right and Foden through the middle but who knows!

Difficult one to call but hopefully we'll do enough to get the win.

 

[Barcon]

What page is the line up on kids?

What, from the £55m 'flop'?

Two up top won't work for them. Their plan is probably going to be win the ball back centrally and then use Pulisic and Ziyech to attack the spaces behind the fullbacks.

Werner's runs are difficult for us but I guess Tuchel would fancy Lukaku's overall presence instead.
