Rover bond @ 1:47 – you are of course correct but seeing as to date and even at the tail end of last season when we were struggling, Jose sticks to his core squad and does not try fringe players. On current form quite a few could be dropped – quite clearly. However, IMO, that will not happen. If it was down to me I would go with Courtois, Baba, JT, Zouma, Dave, Matic, Ramires, Hazard, Willian, Pedro and Costa. Matic and Ramires to be stronger in the middle and offer that extra protection so that hopefully we do not concede. At the same time, and depending on how the game goes I would allow Ramires to bolster the attack. Baba and Dave in natural roles should provide some decent crosses. The rest speak for themselves (IMO) and make Costa stay in the box. Fabregas can come on if we are struggling but for me, he deserves to be dropped (and yet deep down I know he will play). At the end of the day I do not care what team starts or even how they play (obviously would prefer a decent performance but being realistic here) so long as we get the result and finish top of the group. I am hopeful that that would give us a big confidence boost for the run up into Xmas. KTBFFH
