PBP: EPL - Manchester United FC vs chelsea FC - Apr 28, 2019 [R]

Saw some other rumours that Bailly & Herrera were due to start.

Fair to say the leaks haven’t been plugged yet

Not a big fan of Mata in these top 6 games as his lack of speed on the break and fake pressing tend to hurt us. However with Jesse form as it is there are few options I guess.

Not a fan of Matic coming back, but that subject done to death.

Bailly will be great (most of his early form with us) or garbage (his recent form). We desperately need him to be the rock he once was.

 

Chelsea XI: Kepa, Azpilicueta, David Luiz, Rudiger, Alonso, Kante, Jorginho, Kovacic, Willian, Hazard, Higuain

 

Thought Alonso was injured. I sincerely hope Bailly behaves himself.

 

Ole says on Sky he basically picked the team as is midfield 3 who did so well for him early on before Herrera / Matic injuries.

 

Herrera back in the starting ;lineup is really a sight for sore eyes. We've missed our heart.

 

A win is so important today.

 

Basically same old;

- going forward, if Pogs performs we perform

- defensively, we wont properly perform so need Dave to get back to performing when we mess up

 

Great ball Shaw, Lukaku misses 1v1 ...

 

Hell of a ball from Shaw

 

Mata inability to turn on the ball is a problem.

 

Shaw is so good.

 

Shaw to Mata 1-0

Nice pass Lukaku to Shaw too.

 

Lets ********ing go

 

Shaw is so ********ing good.

 

I'll take it. We have been kind of decent.

 

What's the Mata?

 

What a ball from Rom

 

Good attitude and desire from the boys so far. Let's hope they can keep this up for the whole game and not just for part of the game.

 

So relieved we did not get George: he's just incredibly overrated to me.

 

Herrera, also, so good today.

 

His absence and the impact it has on the team is looking pretty evident so far. Mindboggling that we couldn't fight harder to keep him.

 

Unable to keep the ball.

 

So close there from Bailly, following a good corner from AY.

 

Good play from Lukaku and nice pass to Rashford who couldn't do much .. Bailly almost 2-0 from the corner..

 

Big Rom just BODIED Azpi
