My Blood Is Blue Report post Posted October 10, 2020 £15 to watch this one, on top of what I currently pay for Sky and BT... I don't think so. I'll have to watch it the 'other' way. Really hope Mendy is fit for this, but seems unlikely, even if it isn't as bad as it could have been, my guess is he won't be risked until he is 100% again. Who deputises for him, I've no idea - Kepa has been on the bench in last few games, but does Frank trust him to play in the PL again yet? Id Kepa doesn't play, it means we have a £72m 3rd choice keeper! Presume Pulisic and Ziyech will be fit enough to be in the squad, if not starting, so we're getting very close to having fully fit squad and hopefully Frank is finally settling on a regular back 4. We'll be having some 'big' names missing out each week soon. Another controlled victory would be nice here, a second clean sheet might be asking too much, but another victory and a run out for Pulisic and Ziyech would be ideal... be nice for Werner to get a league goal too. I expect: Kepa Azpi - Silva - Zouma - Chilwell Kante - Mount CHO - Havertz - Werner Tammy Subs: Caballero, James, Tomori, Jorginho, Pulisic, Ziyech, Giroud Missing out: Rudiger, Tomori, Christensen, Alonso, Emerson, Kovacic, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know I will. Match going fans aren't choosing to stay away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JaneB Report post Posted October 10, 2020 This is where I show my lack of knowledge on the best formations but isn't Giroud worth a place in the starting line up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can get them in UK?....I am somewhat stone age with technology but never been able to get UK streaming in Colorado....I NBC have ripped us off basically but get EPL on Peacock and cup/euro games on ESP+. The new added cost of an individual game over there is ridiculous....it used to be the "peoples" game ........as a teenager on a small wage I could go to SB but not sure if I could afford it as a fixed income senior at least not on a regular basis....all "progress" isn't!
