Chelsea are heading up to Manchester to face United in The Premier League this evening for the 8.15pm kick off.
United are in turmoil right now with a lot of drama surrounding them and their current position. Chelsea have been there themselves lately and are certainly not out of the woods yet. But even still, they are not in the same place as United are right now in terms of scrutiny and players turning on the manager.
Mauricio Pochettino is well-loved by the Chelsea players and he has already created a good rapport with a number of them, including Cole Palmer.
The England international is set to be handed a pivotal and key role tonight with Conor Gallagher missing through suspension, and Lesley Ugochukwu injured.
Pochettino’s starting lineup is obvious to me, because they are down to the bare bones and literally have no choice but to go for the midfield three of Moises Caicedo, Enzo Fernandaz, and Cole Palmer.
I suspect Palmer will get the 10 role, and therefore will be very important tonight. The back four I think will be Reece James, Thiago Silva, Benoit Badiashile, and Levi Colwil. In goal will be Robert Sanchez. And up top will be Raheem Sterling, Mykhailo Mudryk, and Nicolas Jackson.
