3-5-2 matching their formation

3-4-2-1 for Chelski

They will keep their shape because of their quality.. we will be pinned back into a 5-3-2 with massive gaps in the middle because of our lack thereof.

Cowardly gutless wank. May as well run out behind a white flag.

Great that Ings and Watkins are starting together but I have no idea how we are going to get the ball to them.

Where's the creativity in that team?

no pace to break,  should have a winger and ditch ings. Formation purely to accommodate ings and ollie. Ideal game for Baileys pace.

We'll be pinned back in a 5-3-2 and smashing it long all game.

Watkins and Ings are going to have to do it on their own because there's no one else to create anything. Hoping we can stay in the game and maybe bring on Bailey later on. Maybe....
