It's Burnley at home next. We're going to approach that very differently to Chelsea awsy.

Hopefully not in the same way we last approached Burnley home.
-
I would expect at least 4 changes. No, I don't know who.
-
1 Turner
29 Montiel (Aina)
24 Aurier
19 Niakhaté
30 Boly (Worrall)
7 N Williams (Felipe)
22 Yates
12 Nascimento dos Santos (Sangare)
8 Kouyaté (Gibbs-White)
11 Wood (Awoniyi)
21 ElangaI make it at least 6 guaranteed changes. Then you have to consider whether Dominguez, Hudson-Odoi, Origi or Mangala get a look in.
-
If that is our starting team, I’d be extremely surprised. And very worried.
-
The weather in Madeira is annoying me. Am on a hiking holiday and got drenched the last two days. This morning looks no better.
-
Why do you think that there are 6 guaranteed changes?
-
I sense there are people talking about changes from Chelsea game and people talking about changes from the Burnley game.
-
Ah right yes, that makes sense.
I was wondering what changes he would make to the team that beat Chelsea, for the next league game against Burnley. I think he'll want to get Sangare into the team, but it would seem very unfair to drop anyone from the Chelsea starting 11. Personally I think I would go with this....
Turner
Montiel, Worrall, Felipe, Niakhte, Aina
Yates, Sangare
Gibbs-White, Awoniyi, ElangaI can make a case for Neco getting a go at RWB though. Changing out Boly and McKenna is a very tough call but I think I would. Hudson-Odoi, Origi and Dominguez would likely all be coming on around the 65/70 minutes mark.

We really don't know what any of the new players will look like in training. What their current levels are. I don't know which ones will be staying with the group over the international break. You would think that modest changes would be the most sensible - you don't really want half a team suddenly having to discover the pace of the 'ship at the same time in a game.
Clearly we have bought a number of players well capable of starting, but they could still do with a bit of experience at the level alongside them to help them settle. Isn't the next game against Burnley? We need to win that, not just have a grand experiment.
-
Yes but they all performed well in Champ Manager and you don't need to train for that
-
But, if we're basing Burnley selection on Chelsea, also unfair to not give Elanga a start.
-
He came on and scored because Danilo was injured. I'm presuming Danilo won't be fit for Burnley. It looked like his hamstring.
-
Sangare for Danilo, possible change at RB, but otherwise unchanged I think
-
I see that MoTD goal of the month competition didn't merit Big T and the Lightning Kid tearing a 100m long arse-en-hole worthy of consideration.
-
Danilo played, along with MGW, just behind Taiwo didn't he? If so, don't think that is the type of player Sangare is. He's more Yates and Mangala like.
