themightyfin Posted 9 August 2018 Share Posted 9 August 2018 (edited) Looking at how we played in Pre season I think CP is leaning towards the so called Christmas Tree formation. Maguire and Vardy will probably start on the bench and Evans will be fit. Benkovic probably to early for him to be involved but who knows? That said I think we line up something like this. Kasper Pereira Evans Morgan Chillwell Iborra Ndidi Silva Gray Maddison Iheanacho Subs Ward Maguire Fuchs Diabate Ghezzal Vardy Okazaki/Albrighton.

Legend_in_blue Posted 9 August 2018 Share Posted 9 August 2018 I think we can go there and get something from the game. There's some unrest in their camp, if we can set about them, cause them problems, get in their faces, we can nick a point or all 3 with a bit of luck.

Guest ttfn Posted 9 August 2018 Share Posted 9 August 2018 This is such a great opportunity for us. The atmosphere around Manchester United stinks. Mourinho is a Class A Tosser and is sucking the life out of the club. Meanwhile after today and the summer in general we’re buzzing. We’re cautiously looking forward to the season but United fans are dreading it. Shame that it’s a World Cup year because with Vardy and Maguire fully fit I’d have us as favourites in these circumstances. Say what you like about Puel but his record against the top 6 is actually pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes just spotted that, I’m assuming he’s not there as he’s with Mendy who’s injured so wouldn’t be going to the game. Maguire & Evans/Benkovic I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARM1968 Posted 9 August 2018 Share Posted 9 August 2018 Just need to be at them enough for Jose to lose his shit at halftime and fully demotivate his team for the 2nd half. I have a real Chelsea feeling for Jose this season. I think the squad will down tools and fuch him over - but only because he’s such a whinging cvnt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great, looking forward to a couple more transfer windows of this crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vardy to come off the bench around the 60th min too. It's a decent line-up, but I still think we will struggle against them. They're missing some big players though, which will help!

fazzyfox Posted 9 August 2018 Share Posted 9 August 2018 Sanchez was strangely flat after joining them, a fish out of water, have a feeling he'll be back to his irritating, jammy, in yer face, ref controlling best / worst. The available Utd players will be looking to show Jose they are more than capable, which was probably part of his plan. For us as well as the new signings, Iheanacho and Silva will feel like new signings as I feel they were just starting to click as the season ended. Whatever formation and line up Puel selects I wouldn't read too much into it, I have a feeling he's going to adopt a horses for courses approach and take each game on its merits. Still feels too early for everyone, if it wasn't for season ticket holders I'd suggest a country wide boycott of the weekends PL games, star players have barely trained and have missed all of the friendlies but the season starts regardless - just hope there are no gambles leading to injuries.
