On my way to Baker Street!
Avoid Stanmore, people.
Axey is a dirty bastard - he'll be under orders to kick Kane into the air.Nathan Ake is starting apparently? Hopefully that's true..

IF it is true, then Conte's 'we are in trouble' comment about the league is really showing. 10 down to 4 is a concern, and he will probably have the memory of being Juve captain when they blew a 9pt lead at the top of the table to Lazio (with 8 games to go) in mind.Ok is this mind games? Why the hell would they bench Hazard? I could see Costa benched with Hazard as a false 9 but both benched? Are they throwing this to focus on the league?
They prob want to be defensive at the start, stay in the game and the. Bring on Hazard when we are tiring. Also will mess with our game plan if we had planned to man mark hazard. We need to win the game in the first half.
