Big up Brother. Great Line-up Prediction that again! The only changes I'd make is: Mendy instead of Kepa despite the former's recent mistake (I understand he may be going for AFCON early next week only) Also Kovacic to be LCM as he's a natural there + may be instructed to protect Alonso. I'm a bit concerned about Azpi's lack of consistent game time & I won't be surprised if Reece James/Alonso is given a rest at some point during the game, if possible. Pulisic finally had a good game so hoping for him to come on as well. UTC, 2-1 to CFC.

I think you make great sense of the midfield structure so that Alonso will be protected. However, I think Alonso will be better protected by Jorginho, who is more defensively minded than Kovacic. And you are correct about Azpi’s lack of game time, and I am beginning to think that he may start the game, but we will see. This is a delicious comment, by the way.

I meant to say that he may start the game. Lol!

I think it could be good to try pulisic in the LWB position

He could do well there since they don't primarily defend. Welcome to the channel, and please, feel at home.

start saul and bring kova later...He had two decent games. Keep kova fresh for weekend

Here is the thing, Vignesh, we don't Kante, which leaves our defense vulnerable. So, I don't think Tuchel would risk anything.

Senegal's match in AFCON is on Jan 10th. So I think Edou Mendy will play a few more games. He's expected to be around when we play Liverpool. I do understand why you want Kepa to start though. Will be interesting to see if Callum starts considering he played the whole match v Aston Villa. But if he doesn't start, Pulisic? 🤔 Or Ziyech if he's fit.

Pulisic is obviously the next person in line if Callum doesn't start. But I think Callum will start.

Ha!…you’re stubborn on the Kepa thing eh. TT will only bring him in when he has to, cause his pecking order with Mendy is established. James, Mount and Jorginho will get rested cause they were close to being liabilities last game

You make great sense. However, I'd argue that Thomas Tuchel wouldn't want to risk it, given the Charity FC factor. Again, Tuchel does what he wants.

rudiger will prolly rest tanco will replace him

@@ChelseaPerspective yes I trust in him anyway. Lampards zonal marking and constant changing of defenders didn't help Kepa anymore than Lampards man management being useless. This was shown by defenders too. I will expand in the show of me comparing managers.
