Cicero 3,975 Posted April 16, 2018 Inevitable 3-4-3 Rudiger still Dropped Cesc still in a 2 man midfield Alonso and Moses the wing backs Morata up top Will play passively and allow Burnley all over us. Will only look threatening when we change to 4-2-3-1 but it will be too late. 2-1 Burnley 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan 1,419 Posted April 18, 2018 (edited) We are badly due a result at home. Season's dead now so I wouldn't be surprised if Southampton did come here and get something. I want him to make a few changes for this. Stop pissing around with under-performing players and give some others a crack. I actually want Puel to stay I've decided. A sizeable number have turned on him but I think he deserves a proper crack. He says the right things and what he's done previously gives me hope that he can do well here in the long run. I also want to think that he will make some significant changes to our first team next year as well if he has the summer because I'm fed up of the same problems going unaddressed every window. It would be a fitting one for him to win. Edited April 18, 2018 by Dan 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
True Blue 853 Posted April 18, 2018 Burnley a tough team to beat this season, i expect a draw but seeing Spurs dropped points a win would be really good. Then again still think it is too late for top four. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cicero 3,975 Posted April 19, 2018 Can see Christensen being dropped for tactical reasons. Conte confirmed Emerson will start. Hope Giroud does too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cicero 3,975 Posted April 19, 2018 Hazard saved for the weekend. Morata and Giroud start together. Looks like a 4-2-4 with Emerson and Pedro on the wings. Azpilicueta at LB? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bluewolf 4,585 Posted April 19, 2018 Can see this being a tough night away.. Burnley have been fairly decent this season and that defence is well drilled so won't be easy to get through unless we get lucky and they have a mare... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cicero 3,975 Posted April 19, 2018 Going to need this 2nd goal. Hope we keep pushing as we've played well. So great to have a wing back that can beat players and deliver a cross. Emerson is a breath of fresh air. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bluewolf 4,585 Posted April 19, 2018 That's twice Burnley have taken an age to take the throw in.... If we were taking that long we would probably be accused of time wasting.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bluewolf 4,585 Posted April 19, 2018 Decent first half from us... I agree we need another though, wouldn't be wise to try and ride our luck against them with just the one goal advantage Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cicero 3,975 Posted April 19, 2018 Let it be known that Emerson has been on the bench behind Alonso since January. Pathetic from Conte Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cicero 3,975 Posted April 19, 2018 Much needed result. Gained 5 points on Spurs in two games. Going to need to be at our absolute best the rest of the season in hope of a miracle. Emerson and Giroud should be nailed on starters going forward. Much better performance from Moses. 4 games to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
