Maybe playing Schlupp because he's more defensively minded than our other options on the left.

agree with this also Hernandez starting , its a more defensive 442 but i would have liked to have see us try a 433 .

guys I'm confused, are we playing 4-4-2 or 3-4-3?

Probably 442. Tinkerman doesn't tinker too much anymore. It might be 4411/4231though. Only question is on what wing Schlupp and Albrighton play on really.

I'm actually fairly excited by this.

 

Two wingers that can happily be defensive. (Schlupp more so than Gray, I believe)

 

And the pace of Musa and Vardy for quick counters.

Bloody hell so much negativity for Jeffrey, he will run past Luiz so fookin quickly his hair will look like Marge Simpsons at half time., 2 goals and MOTM for Jeff, egg on the face for all you mockers.

I hope Jeff does score two, my main issue with schlupp is, I have every confidence in him beating a player with his pace, but there is very rarely an end product.

It's not about mocking him, it's as I stated above, and the fact he's been out so long, and has looked off the pace since his return.

Where gray has been patient and is stating to look a talent, with an end product, should feel hard done by, after seeing a player who has been out leap frog him, into a starting position.

I guess Claudio is looking at Jeff doing more defensive work, hope Claudio idea pays off for them both.

I have faith in Claudio. Rest a couple for Tuesday and put Schlupp for that bit of extra defence. I might have played Okazaki but Claudio knows better than me.

I've no problem with Schlupp playing.

4-4-2 though. Bit scary. Let's see how Amartey copes

Chelsea gone 343 

Cahill, Luiz and Azpilicueta not the quickest, with Jeff, Musa and Vardy, if we have tried to match them and go 433 or 343 we could have chances here!

Another piece on Sky about us struggling to find a balance in Central midfield without any mention of Mendy. Deep research there guys. I'm not saying for sure he will be the solution but to sign someone for that much and not be able to play him is at least very relevant to the discussion.

Champions league Tuesday - rest Mahrez and Slimani - Schlupp has defensive qualities that Gray probably doesn't have, I wouldn't say this team is disastrous by any means. 

 

Surprised at how many of you are writing us off so quickly

Amarty will eat Kante in a midfield tussle and will become known forever as 'the kamarty'.

Gray must wonder what he has to do to get a start.

 

Played heavy games and traveling for England u21? 

 

With albrighton starting this this one it looks like he is being rested for a start against Copenhagen to me...

Hammer Schlupp time already?

Give him a break. As long as hes doesn't have to think he'll be fine!

Some wanted Musa so let's see what he's got.

Amartey wants to be 1st choice in midfield, let's see what he's got.

Hernandez...Let's see what you got.....
