Right?? For once, the opposition has a pretty weak/depleted squad and Ole isn't tryign to outshit them, or give a handicap by starting Lingard
I know Lindelof was struggling to make the kick-off, but Tuanzebe has been fit for weeks now. He's certainly no less match-fit than Bailly.
Unless there's a power cut and the Mrs gets all romantic with the candles there's little chance of that tonight.I’m actually quite pleased with the line-up. Bailly will be just fine, no worries about him.
1-2 United (Maguire, Fernandes, Willian)Gone with the back 3/5 as I suspected. Look at hit them on the break.
Think it will be a cagey 1-1.Can’t wait to see Bailly do his huge leap and duck headers.
Genuine question, how do you outshit someone?Well, playing Bruno where he belongs can help a lot. Was expecting to see Mason and Martial to play of him, but can't win all. Hopefully it will be a good match.
Ole knows Lingard is crap, he keeps being forced to pick him through injuries to other players.
Hope you're right mate, I'm a bit nervous for him!
Lingard not even on the bench... no need to dread for the moment Lingard will be put on the pitch when we need a goal.
Every time United needed a goal and Lingard came on, to me, it felt like waving the white flag. Atleast today there wont be any of that.We badly need a center half. Lindelof is already prime for replacement, but when his stand in is Eric fecking Bailly, you know you’re in trouble.
Guaranteed feck up on the cards. Let’s just hope he doesn’t have to do much heading.Bailly could actually be a good foil to Harry if he stays on his feet.
NSFW.10/11 I had Mata instead of Williams !!
Try google... im curious to see what kind of results you would get.
Literally shoots himself in the foot. With a gun.That chelsea side are fecking awful lookingLooks like 3/4/3 type of game and we will try to push our full backs up. We have to hope Bruno, Martial and James develop an understanding. Martial and James have to call for the ball, but I am always surprised why we keep using James. Do we expect Chelsea to keep attacking on the side? If so why not.Not a bad lineup if it means Fernandes plays behind a flat front two, it's better than shoehorning a 4-2-3-1 again. Bailly is a surprise, this could go either way...Everyone involved in giving green light for Jones contract extension should be behind bars.I'm wondering what's going to come first.
Bailly giving away a penalty, getting injured, getting a yellow card or jumping 2 meters into the air and landing on his head.
Place your bets ladies and gentleman.
Tuanzebe isn't even training with the rest of the squad yet, or maybe has only just joined up with them over the last few days. Been doing physio work.
Lindelof's ill.
Either of those would've started ahead of Bailly.For the first time we can put 2 strikers on the field as a sub now (Igdaho, Greenwood). That is pretty good I think. No Scott yet though. I suspect when Scott is back, Pereira is out.
I think Bailly has been playing reserve matches whereas Axel has only been training
Left him in Marbella untill he learns how to clear a ball effectively.
You never know what you are going to get with Bailly. He could also be worldclass and make the most insane tackles on his day.
He would also be capable of doing multiple or even all those things you mention at the same time which would make it hard to decide the winner of the bet
£5 Bailly gets hauled off at half time.This could be a rough time for Chelsea if we can win, they play Spurs(Jose will want revenge), then away at City coming up.
Yeah especially that attack - not looking to clever.
Biggest test for us tonight is, can we put our chances away.
No he hasn’t, he just gave an interview 6 days ago saying he hasn’t been training with the group and hasn’t even been out on the pitch yet.Where are the goals coming from tonight?BBC ..... "Chelsea's starting XI is the oldest they have named in the Premier League this season, with an average age of 28 years and 171 days."You never know what you are going to get with Bailly. He could also be worldclass and make the most insane tackles on his day.

Was thinking that myself when I read it back
Bruno, 25 yard screamer.
You take a laxative.Hope this is the game Bailly actually acts like a CB.was surprised with Bailly being selected.
Lets hope he has a good game.
Really depends if Martial is on it tonight or not. Let's see what Bruno can do.- Status
