Chelsea have also got a few players missing today so maybe they will only rip us one arse cheek.....

And Man City will finish the other one Tuesday night

Good thing for this game just like watching England play cricket I have zero expectations.

I will only be annoyed/frustrated if we play endless amounts of players out of possession or just look hopeless on the pitch, not overly bothered about losing as long as we look like we are giving them a game if we spend 90 minutes being toothless in attack and wide open at the back I'll worry.

Could maybe nick a draw but that's about it and we'd need a lot of luck with their finishing/Meslier keeping I feel for that to happen

[Rev72]

A draw would be amazing but failing that we don't want a rodgering as goal difference could be crucial.

[Rev72]

Be interesting to see what side we put out or should that be what side is available.

Anyone got their father’s gun at the ready?

[Rev72]

We hate Chelsea - We hate Chelsea - We hate Chelsea.

[Rev72]

Anyway - where is them Irish tw@ts

Belfast and Billy boy....Come on Down yer feckers

You can share the pain

[joellufcprice]

Just as I typed my post:

A right back at centre back
A midfielder at right back
A winger/right back in centre midfield
A striker (or whatever you call roberts) in attacking midfield
A winger as a striker

all whilst we have:
A centre back on the bench
A forward/attacking mid on the bench
A central midfielder on the bench
A right back on the bench

I love Bielsa but this is getting stupid we should have lined up like this:

Meslier

Firpo
Llorente
Cresswell
Ayling

Forshaw
Dallas
Klich/Gelhardt/Roberts

Raphinha
Roberts/Gelhardt
James


Another thought, is Lewis Bate injured? Baffles me that even as an option he isn't deemed good enough for the bench but Jenkins/Mckinstry/McCarron are

Dearest Rev, I think you will find William and I are British, living in Northern Ireland. Don't start.....

🤣

PS. Not a bigoted bone in my body.
