Team for Chelsea

------------------Adrian
Antonio---Reid---Ogbonna----Byram
-----------Kouyate-----Noble(c)
Ferghouli-------Ayew--------Payet
-------------------Carroll
There may be a fitness question for oggie, so it wouldn't shock me to see Oxford there (I'd think same issue for ginge). Payet may have fitness issues as well but I cannot see leaving him on the bench. I don't see Arthur M. dropping straight into the prem, chelsea away, without even a week of training.

I don't think he will start Payet, only hot that 15 mins last week.
I really hope I'm wrong, mind.

I very much doubt that Payet will be ready to start. If Masuaku is ready to play I'd rather see Antonio taking Feghouli's place with Byram at right back.

Ayew feeding off Carroll's knock downs could work really well.

I could see that as well. Would be similar to the 4-3-2-1 lineup the first game of the season last year.

I reckon the viking is a must the way he sits there breaks up play and sprays the ball its what we missed all last season....

Very hard to call this one, with some players returning to fitness. In fact, with the fabulous squad that we are building, it's going to be hard to call for every game. For that reason I am out.

Fizzing for the game.

Interesting most people people picking just kouyate and nobes in the middle
I highly doubt this is going to happen at Chelsea away

Yeah exactly Romfordboy. I think we would have been likely to bolster the midfield anyway given the opposition but with Lanzini and probably Payet unavailable as well I'd be very surprised if we didn't have Nordveit in the middle behind Noble and Kouyate.
Although to be fair half the responses here do include Nordveit in the middle 3.

The Viking must be given a run for me. The only player I can think that we had in this position was Song who was brilliant there when he first arrived, but then his form dropped off a cliff.
We have been missing someone in this position and we need to see if the Viking can pull it off. I think and hope he will, because if he does it will give us a different dimension.
