I will not be able to attend our match against Spurs on Saturday. I obviously believe we will win comfortably.
I think Lamps will play with a back three of Dave, Rudiger and Tomori. The wing backs will be James and Alonso.
The midfield will be Kovacic, Jorginho and Barkley with Mount playing just behind Giroud.
COME on MY MIGHTY BLUES.
{Ed047's Note - is Kante injured?
20 Feb 2020 10:06:35
Yes he's out for 3/ 6 weeks.
20 Feb 2020 10:06:48
Yep, supposedly out for a minimum of three weeks but probably won’t be back until after the international break.
20 Feb 2020 10:35:37
So that’s Kante, Pulisic, Tammy still a doubt as we.
20 Feb 2020 09:45:48
Yup he suffered a pretty bad injury, apparently : (.
{Ed047's Note - that’s not good, he seems to have suffered a few lately, he’s a big miss.

I can't remember if it was an Ed or a someone else (think Ed001?) who pointed towards Kante picking up more injuries whilst playing further up the field and being asked to cover more ground; but they were definetly right. He's a work horse, unfortunately he's being worked into the ground in his current role.
Tom, I agree, with injuries etc, we'll see a back three vs. Spurs. For me it'd be the same back three, same wingbacks, but Kovacic, Jorginho sitting whilst Mount plays off Willian and Giroud.
Ideally i'd like to see a fully fit RLC instead of Mount, I think Mount needs a rest and I also think Barkley is a car crash of a player. Then again I spent a good portion of last week saying Wan-Bissaka couldn't cross a ball, hopefully I'm proved wrong again if Barkley plays.

Wonderful player and a big miss Ed but for he hasn’t been 100% fit tall season. Let’s hope this potential extended absence will put him spot on for the final few games and the Champions League final. Haha!
{Ed047's Note - that’s he real shame, he’s just so good. Who you fancying in the final then Tom? 😉

Athletico Madrid Ed. Could be the only way we qualify for next season Champions League!
{Ed047's Note - wow, you don’t want it easy then Tom! 🤣

If I wanted it easy I would have said Spurs or Liverpool.
