I just want to see some passion and fight for the shirt

 

[ToffeeTim]

Whoever is in charge should play what they believe to be the best 11 we can put on the park. Good luck to them lol

People who i think must start:

Pickford
Kenny
Keane
Baines
Davies
Vlasic
DCL

Defense:

Any of Holgate, Jagielka or Williams alongside Keane. Can't really decide. The full-backs are the only ones we've got so they pick themselves.

Central Midfield:

With Gueye suspended you'd assume Schneiderlin if fit but it might have to be Klassen, though personally I'd go with Besic alongside Davies with Rooney or Sigurdsson ahead of them. The important part here is Davies has to start.

Wide positions:

Vlasic obviously on either wing and Mirallas on the other more than likely but would like to see Lookman given a start.

Upfront:

DCL is the obvious choice as the only player who can be an outlet for us. If it's a front 2 then by all means play Rooney up top, just not on his own. Niasse off the bench if we're chasing the game or take the game to extra-time / looking to get the winner.

 

[argietoffee]

I think the most important thing to get right is the midfield.

We have been absolutely porous this season.

Our defence needs serious protection.

Schneiderlins decline has been calamitous for the team.

 

[Cels]

Don't really care who plays so long as we have a sound game plan, and the players run themselves into the ground and challenge for everything.

There seems to be a bit of unrest at Chelsea at the moment, so we have a good chance if we approach the game in the right manner.

Honestly I think Rooney gets in before Sigurdsson on recent form, but DCL would be more isolated.

Pickford
Kenny Keane Jagielka Baines
Schneiderlin
Vlasic Mirallas
Barkley
DCL Sandro

Mate, Barkley may have wanted out because of Koeman but he is genuinely injured.

 

[TheBigBaldy]

Pickford

Kenny - Keane - Jagielka - Baines

Vlasic - Davies - Schneiderlin - Mirallas

Rooney - Niasse​

Why not? We've just sacked our manager and there'll be zero expectation in this game. Go for broke.

I like the look of thia team, with wither Niasse or DCL.

Sigg has been awful has to be droped.

 

[Mooro83]

Lookman and Vlasic on the wings and play Gylfi in his natural position behind the striker/s

On a side note I'm looking at driving down on Wednesday, anyone with recommendations of where to park within walking distance to the ground? Thanks in advance
