Because Big Fellers is back

Bit pissed off Kante is back for them. They're a different side with him there.

He's still nowhere to be seen. 8 weeks now.

But but ......Sapien's sources....

Mikki in for us

Kanté back for them

Another brave and exciting Mourinho performance inevitable

Same tbh, something inevitable about losing down there.

That Chelsea side doesn't look up to much on paper tbh. Will depend if we allow them to play, but hoping for a 2-0 win

Need to take out chances and Mikki needs to wake the £#%&! up from the get go.

It's him, lingard or Mata. I'd rather him than either of the other two.

Still expect him and Lukaku to go missing, Rashford to work his arse off for minimal reward and for herrera to do an awful lot arm flailing, pointing and fouling.

Smalling & Jones

Kanté was missing for their bad spell wasn't he? Great that he's recovered from his injury in time for us.

Jesus christ, the money we've spent in the last 3 years and that's the best 11 we can put out in one of the season's big games.

At least 4 of them shouldn't be anywhere near the starting 11.

Needs more money

Doesn't help that the current manager has only got 4 of his own signings in the entire match day squad.

City blitzing these last few weeks hasn't helped. A point today doesn't look too bad when you match it up with draw at Anfield and beating spurs..... but city getting maximum points for God knows how many weeks now has made it all the more daunting.

And then there's the Huddersfield game.... ..... still £#%&!ing livid about that.

Last time we won well there

So are we going with wing backs and Rashford up front again?

Rashes and Rom in a 2

Need a big performance from our full backs today. Not hopeful.

Yep, should have lined up with the well known formation of 2-3-5

Mourinho knows nothing etc

On the other hand, Chelsea at home are playing with two 'attackers'.

Our full backs are probably two of the three most reliable players, along with matic.

It's our £#%&!y midfielders, big lumpy striker and calamitous 'experienced' centre backs I worry about.
