With Bernardo on the left? I doubt it. I imagine it will be:

Sterling -- Bernardo -- Mahrez

You could be right though, who knows with Pep, it might be Ilkay in false 9.

Could be Ederson, knowing pep

No surprises. Most predicted that team more or less given the rotation and players available. I personally would have liked him to follow through with his claim about Newcastle being the more important and start some of those kids on the bench.

Squad is already looking a bit thin on the ground and we’ve got the best squad in the league. I imagine in a few weeks time the percentage of youth players starting in games is going to rise dramatically just out of sheer necessity because of injuries than anything else

As is Doyle, to be fair

I hope the same for Tommy Doyle too

Doyle and THB have already made their debuts. I hope they get on too though.

Most offensive chelsea side ive seen in years.

Is Bernie up top? as he hasn't scored since November.

Has Doyle made a League debut?

No just League cup.

Mrs Vienna read that Foden didn’t travel.

Gone fishing.
