Is Bobby on the bench?.
Going to be a very fast attacking game... No rest..
3-1 to the red men.
Nah mate, clearly bad enough to keep him out of the squad completely.
Unfortunately I think it will have a big impact on our game and will give Chelsea a lot of rest periods in possession. To beat these we have to force errors and the best way to force errors is give them more than they're comfortable to think about and act on as often as possible.
Coutinho must not just shoot on sight (unless of course they all go in then of course he's a genius
). He has to produce a similar style that we saw against Leicester, that style of footy is exactly the style that we need tonight. I wouldn't expect it to produce as many goals or clear cut opportunities against a side as organised and full of quality as Chelsea but I would expect it to produce some chances. Playing in front of them and taking pot shots from 30 yards is how they want us to play, let's not play into their hands and keep those movements inbetween the defenders and beyond the striker and we'll see the mistakes that hopefully we'll capitalise on.
