    They were prepared for Ole.


    They were not prepared for Michael Carrick.
     
    A good line up for me but Chelsea have far better players, even a draw looks unrealistic
    Correction, Chelsea have far better ‘coached’ players. On ability there’s not much in it, in fact we probably edge it.
     
    To me, we're already seeing more tactical thinking from Carrick than we did far too often under Ole. Not just throwing the same tired lineup out there week after week.
     
    Absolutely screams of Carrick/McKenna making a statement that they were handcuffed with Ronaldo. They’re scapegoating him.
    The conspiracy theorists are in
     
    Ralf might have had some input. He might be wanting Carrick to use the full squad so he can see everyone play. I think a draw would be a great result today.
     
    Possible diamond with McFred helping defend the wings and leaving Bruno to help Matic in the middle then counter with Sancho and Rashford.

    Packed the midfield for once so will be interesting, we had to try something different.
     
    Possibly shows that it may have been Ole holding Carrick/McKenna back a bit and Carrick/McKenna implementing Ole’s ideas rather than the other way around.

    Carrick/McKenna showing some balls at least
     
    McFred again. Fred performed well against Villarreal so no complaints there, but WTF is this fascination with McTominay? He’s been abysmal all season.
     
    Surely we can do better than Matic? He ain't got the legs for a game like this.
     
    How is that a good team?
    What did you want? Another McFred midfield duo getting completely outnumbered and outplayed while our forward line spends entire game without touching the ball? This at least has some hope that we will have a bit of the ball in the game. If we manage to do anything with it or not is a different question but it's an interesting lineup.
     
    No issue with the line up, but how mctominay still keeps starting for us is fast becoming a joke.
     
    So, we’ll see if we look steadier at the back without Maguire. Mind you, it’s a pretty unfair test given that Chelsea are one of the best in the PL at the moment.

    When the hell is Cavani going to be fit?
     
    More likely to be:

    Rashford Sancho
    .........Bruno
    Fred............Scott
    ..........Matic

    Not a massive difference really. That said, I'd say the top one will allow all three players to press onto their centre backs, which will stop them from building from the back.
     
    McFred again. Fred performed well against Villarreal so no complaints there, but WTF is this fascination with McTominay? He’s been abysmal all season.
    He is a willing runner, unlike most of the team. That's about it.
