Shut them down. Harry them. Don't let them settle. Try and snag a scrappy goal. They won't like being rough and tumbled at little old Barnsley. Stick DD on for the last 20 for a famous hat-trick. I think if we sit back or "play the fixture", rather than what's in front of us, we'll get banged 6 nowt.
Its a tricky one - Head says we will lose 0-3 heart still thinks we might nick a 1-0 or 2-1 possibly AET if we still had the side of 15 years ago Id be happy for it to go to penalties as we never missed out in those days - not so confident now
1-0 with the winner coming from a brilliant Brittain cross headed in by DeeKay, despite a pathetic challenge from the Chelsea 'keeper, who ends up on his @rse.
Woodrow scores the first pen, then goes back to the half way line and dyes his hair and swaps shirts with Frieser to take the second. The puts on a goalie shirt for the third. Then let Mowatt and Styles take the others.
Tuchel said in his pre match press conference that he will probably be making lots of changes so you never know
As long as we don’t get slaughtered or have any straight reds, it should be a good (if hard) learning experience for all the team and interesting to see how “vertical football” does against a top side. Players improve by playing against better players so in the long run it’s useful and surely to God as a game it can’t be worse than the one last night. Someone on Twitter said the most exciting thing last night was our goal shown at half time. 1-3 Chelsea.
