hard to argue against that BUT I will ...... I doubt CH will leave Stephens out of the starting XI for a second game running simply because he is more defensive than Bissouma & CH is gonna go to the usual sit deep hope for a break tactic he normally does against a big 6 team. Just can not see CH letting the team free of the tight line chains at least til we are a goal down with 15mins to play.

 

[Stat Brother]

Fingers crossed Murray scores and then gets injured again before CH can implement 'Operation Defend For 75 mins'.

Dont apologise I'd rather have three of these threads than the many political ones

Amen to that ... but on quieter days with little Albion news people need something to do and it cant always be the weather they turn to

 

[Arkwright]

Last season CH trialled three centre halves against Chelsea pushing on the full backs. Just saying.

 

[BensGrandad]

I think that it should be

Ryan
Montoya...Balogun...Dunk...Bernardo
March...Stephens...Bissouma...Propper
Gross
Murray

But whether CH agrees is a different matter..

Pröpper on the left wing?

 

[BensGrandad]

Pröpper on the left wing?

No, on the left of a 3 man midfield with March and Gross floating out wide either side. 1 on the right and the other on the left but interchanging.

Let's hope CH remembers then. And doesn't do it again!



Although it would be nice to see White getting a start - youngsters being given a chance and all that; but not this weekend.

 

[BensGrandad]

Slighr irritation which I hope somebody can advise me on. When posting my choice of team I tried to center justify it but the justification for left right and center when in advanced have disappeared off of the Quick reply but is still available on a new thread. I have obviously clicked something wrong but cannot get it back.

That was the way of countering Conte but that didnt even work. Different manager this year.

 

[Albion Prem]

Suggest we play a very defensive side, one man up front, also giving our normal starters a rest, this would also avoid injuries

MORATA may not feature now due to an injury he picked up tonight

Thats good for Chelsea as they will have to play Hazard and Willian up front
