Game on Telemundo.

Sarri already came out to say Moses and Drinkwater may not be in his plans.

Moses is a wing-back and not a winger.
Danny not fit to play with 2 other midfielders.

Whatever those excuses mean.

I don't know how we've remained near the top with no real striker. Misses Morata is galavanting as expected!

We've reverted back to 4-3-3 so Moses is behind Hazard, Willian and Pedro in that order and Drinkwater cannot be accommodated in our loaded midfield. I feel for Vic but I understand where Sarri is coming from.

My statement was selfishly made. Sterling is my Vice Captain on the fantasy league. And he currently has 15 points.

Sarri will be insane not to introduce RLC in the second half. I think Kovacic will also come in for Barkley. Hazard might be introduced depending on the scores & Fabregas might see some actions.

Willian's goal should have stood. Scrappy first 25 mins. Hopefully Kovacic and Hazard will get some time. That said, Chelsea need to be in the market for a good rightback and also play Kovacic and Barkley together with Kante rotating with Jorginho. Kante is not an attacking or creative threat - not his strengths anyway.

I could’ve told Moses that during preseason. I believe I started a thread on this topic in July or August. In any event, he should land on his feet at a good club in January so no worries for him.

Speak for yourself. Still way too close for comfort. Hazard to enter around the 65 min mark.
