Match Thread Chelsea V Everton 25/10/17 League Cup

That it will! I'm honestly interested to see if you guys are on the money though!

Haha I'm genuinely not an in the know. My mate is good friends with some of the scouts for younger ages so I normally only get to hear stuff about younger lads/teams, which is why I heard about Sheedy going a week before it was announced. This has come from that source so what he's told me is what he knows but it's not from Unsworth!

 

[Zatara]

Irrelevant of who plays & formations, we'll have four or five put past us !!

WOW you think we'll score SIX or SEVEN?

That's very optimistic

 

[Goat]

If Baningime does do what Unsworth and many posters have said he does, I hope that, in tribute you get the same hairstyle as him.

I dont have hair anymore Zat, I can copy Zidanes hairstyle.

Based on the info you've received how do you think we'll line up?

Pickford
Kenny Williams Jagielka Baines
Baningime
Davies McCarthy
Lennon Rooney Mirallas
​

That would be a team which 'fights' for everything.

I could see Lookman, Sigurdsson and DCL as the subs to win the game.

I also wonder how Baningime, McCarthy, Mirallas and Lennon would be fitness wise.

Lennon--Kenny on the right makes sense, mate. lennon has excellent defensive work-rate and will help Kenny out a lot, he is also still very quick so it will address our pace issues. Also, Vlasic ran his @rse off on Sunday so probably should be rested. Lookman will be a good option off the bench, one Unsworth wouldn't hesitate to use unlike Koeman.

You havent seen Baningime play a single minute Zatmania and your saying he fights for everything.

SMFH.

I'm someone who likes to think he keeps track of the younger players, and even I don't really know anything about him

I hardly watch the lids at all, so no idea at all what he is or what he does.

God knows Zat, ive got an inkling we will win, but then I think we will win every game we play, you gotta always hope for victory, cos without hope, whats left?

I wonder about lennon baningime mccarthy mirallas' fitness if they all start...especially as rooney will do doubt be knackered too

Vlasic I think picked up a knock or it was said hes being rested...but not playing I think.

Lennon should be fine I imagine. If the rumours are true about Baningime starting well yeah's young so should be able to do it but even if 100% I wouldn't expect him to do a full 90 anyway. Mirallas will be fine.

The only issue there is McCarthy.

But yeah shame if Vlasic has got a knock, I honestly think he's quality and would have started him in normal circumstances.

 

[Lob]

A win tonight would be awesome and just what the doctor ordered but i will honestly be happy if we just play well and are organised and passionate for 90 minutes. It will be something that we haven't seen since about February or March this year and would be a positive sign and step forward no matter whether we win or lose.

COYB's !!!

And a team which contains only two players who weren't here last season - a sad reflection on Koeman's transfer dealings.
