Too early to be picking a team, but I'm hoping that last year's victory at Stamford Bridge has broken the hoodoo.

I really think Chelsea can be got at, we will need a fully fit and firing Eriksen for this.

This is what I would go for, three in the middle an absolute must... Lamela and Eriksen roaming behind kane.

Son and Lucas impact subs. I feel the latter could do with coming out of the side, we need to freshen up in attack and Eriksen should be ready to fire now.

Lloris

Aurier
Alderweireld
Sanchez
Davies

Dier
Sissoko
Dele

Lamela
Eriksen

Kane

Our hardest working players need to be in. No one who won't track back or tackle. We have to chase everything, get back close gaps, then attack together. Son, Alli and Eriksen can come on later in the game if we need a goal.

Very early for this given all the internationals ahead but assuming the players who were fit for the squad v Palace will be fit for Chelsea as well, and based on the timings of the international matches:

Lloris
Aurier Alderweireld Sanchez Davies
Dier
Sissoko Winks
Eriksen ____________ Dele
Kane

Gazzaniga Foyth Wanyama Lamela Lucas Son Llorente
Argentina, Brazil and South Korea all play far later on than the European and African sides.

For some reason, I thought that Spurs got SK to agree not to call up Son for the November window as part of the deal to make him available in August for the Asia Games.

He will also miss extended time in January for the Asia Cup.

ETA -
South Korea's latest squad misses their two core players: Son Heung-min and Jang Hyun-soo.

Son, South Korea's attacking ace and team captain, will not go to Australia following an agreement between the Korea Football Association (KFA) and his English Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur.

The two sides previously agreed not to release Son for the November friendlies and the first two matches at the AFC Asian Cup in a trade-off for the player's participation at the 18th Asian Games in Indonesia, where South Korea eventually won the gold medal.

Wow! How quickly things change. Everyone is picking Sissoko over the usual suspects, against Chelsea of all teams!! Saying that, he would be in my starting eleven as well!

Ah I thought it was just January matches he was not leaving us, if he’s staying this time too that’s great news.

Way too early for the thread. Is the team meant to be what we want or what we think it will be?
