My confidence levels just dropped dramatically. No Jan, no party.

Also so baffling why he plays Trippier in a back 4 and Aurier in a back 5.

This is what I really don't get. Trippier is so much more suited to the wingback role as his defensive frailties are less exposed and he gets more crosses in. Poch never seems to play him in that role though and plays Aurier instead, whose skill set it really doesn't suit at all. Truly baffling.

Chelsea in turmoil, we're in need of a massive bounce back statement after a loss during a superb run of form and everyone is acting as if we're playing 2008 Barca. Have some faith boys.

They're going to be good against us tonight. Going to be very difficult to create much against them.
Yes, it is going to be hard to even see the ball. In fact, I'd be surprised if there even is a ball on their half of the pitch. In fact, they might as well rest up and only field 5-6 players against us, that's how good they are and how bad we are.

I think they will be good 1st half and run out of steam. We need to ride the storm and then take them later in the game

More injuries, fuck sake!
Listen to the press re man utd and injuries this week, they should try having what we have had this year.
Not confident tonight at all unfortunately, hope im wrong..

A nicely balanced team imo. People are moaning about the full backs although Davies is solid defensively but weak going forward. Having Son in front of him should compensate for his attacking difficiencies. On the other side Trippier is suspect defensively but has good attacking attributes. With Lamela in front of him being more than defensively diligent I really don’t understand the concern.

Let's look at it this way. Majority of us were confident after seeing our line up v Burnley
