Chelsea's XI is way more comfortable than ours. Reading those lineups, it almost feels like a game we are expected to dominate.

Interesting line up on paper but how that translates on the pitch remains to be seen.

Can we look to play some progressive football at the very least?!

At least that line up says we're gonna try to win the game instead of not lose.

Excited to see this line up (though I'd rather it were against a team whom we could put on more of a showcase). Only concern is the hint of a diamond. Not against that formation at all, but with their wing backs Chelsea have to be the worst possible opposition to utilise it against. Hopefully Nuno has a grand strategy in mind. This could be genius, or an absolute car crash.

Just seen the line up.

Haven't read the posts on here but I imagine even the most insane of spurs fans can't complain about that.

4 at the back
Ndombele starting
Lo Celso

This is Nuno with no pissing about, stick with this team (if possible) replace Dele if he doesn't perform.

Now it's down to the players.

We are going to be seriously open. This could be good.

it’s either going to be really good or really bad with that line up there doesn’t appear to be any half measures.

If we play like we did against Palace we will get trounced but I like the attacking looking line up Nuno's put out so I'm hopeful we can get something out of the game, as long as we try.

They're going to have the legs on us.

2 days extra recovery time + more minutes in the legs.

Dele needs a big game, tired of seeing him run around with the athleticism and pace of a grandmother
