So Sarri had no wingers on the bench and now Pedro is hurt. Loftus-cheek now coming on. Does Barkley go to RW? Does RLC? Do we play a 4-4-2? With our depth in midfield it wouldn’t surprise me if Sarri has thought of a way to deploy 4 midfielders. Will be interested to see how this works
What a goal for Barkley!! He is the CM we need with kante and Jorginho. We all knew we needed a goal scoring CM. I just don’t think any of us thought he was that guy.
And Willian gets in on the fun. Not willian’s biggest fan but he has been good today. He is just a lot better on the left side. If hazard does sign an extension it would make sense to me for Willian to try and see if there is a top club with an opening at LW. He is much better cutting inside onto that right foot.
tomori forgot he wasn’t playing for Chelsea. Such a hilarious own goal but to have one of our own players on loan score it is amazing. It’s also incredible how bad Willian is inside the box. Both passing and shooting.
And another derby goal. 2-2 all 4 goals scored by derby. Cahill and Christensen sure as hell aren’t giving Sarri any selection problems at CB.
Sterlings new contract with man city is being reported at £300k/week. Hazard is going to get £500k/week from us next summer if he chooses to resign and we should be so lucky as to pay that to him.
At least we will partially get eden back this weekend. Hopefully he starts, Hudson-odoi makes the bench and we are dominating to the point that Sarri gives the youngster a good appearance in a league game.
I really hope Mount manages to break into the first team someday. I want to get excited, but my heart's been broken too many times.
Game isn’t on tv? NBC has lost all the goodwill it got with me when it first took over premier league coverage
It’s on Gold and the 2nd half will be on TV. Blame Spurs. City was supposed to play yesterday but Cup match vs Fulham got pushed back to Thursday and this to today thanks to having to play Monday at Wembley because Spurs stadium isn’t done and last Sunday Wembley has an NFL game
Morata!!!!!!! He seems to have More mental issues than anything so maybe this can trigger a run of decent form
Brilliant move by the board to drop that bum Alavaro Morata weeks ago and bring in world class striker Alvaro Morata.
how do we look? I am not paying for the B/R stream and im at work so other streaming options arent really an option. was hoping we would go up a couple of goals so hudson-odoi can get a nice cameo
BATE hit post in final minute. Kepa had it covered (maybe) if it was inside the post. 1-0 win. Survival is the key in this competition.
hopefully CHO and Ampadu get to start the final 2 europa league games since we have already qualified
What a frustrating game offensively. So close so many times, please bury one and get the three points.
