Attendance for the Lazio match is around 50,000 as of yesterday, seems underwhelming given last years attendance figures. Especially with our good run + revitalised squad and an upgraded coach. Weird.

It’s a midweek game

I have a feeling that this game will have us lose our first points. 1-1.

Dreamt last night that we played Sassuolo (I think away) and we drew 1-1. Lukaku scored and Duncan scored for them...

I never dream about fucking football :yao: so yeah, I'll just leave this here as a prophecy.

Is Antonio Conte available?

This is going to be an interesting game. Why not play Bastoni on LCB, Skriniar in the middle,...

This would only be the 3rd time in our history to manage 5 wins out of 5 if we get the 3 points tomorrow. It being a midweek game and against Lazio no less doesn't fill me with much confidence but I hope Conte is ready and he's making sure the players are too because the chances of those cunts getting complacent are high (13 pts out of 15 is good enough to them) and here's where rotating might actually come in handy in contrast to the usual, whoever plays for the 1st time will hopefully do well to impress Conte and plays counter to the emotional final the Lazio players will inevitably play.

Eh, don’t know about it being an emotional final for the Lazio players. Last time they were supposed to take their big ‘revenge’ we spanked them 3-0.

Haven't seen a single Lazio match so far this season but from what I've read they had some pretty great and some abysmal performances as well. There was some drama with Immobile as well.
Conte should keep working on those underrated lateral passes between the triangle of brozo and wingers and I believe we can effectively deal with Lazio's physical midfield.

Wouldn't mind resting Sensi and Asamoah for this one.

GDS are high with these predictions. There is no chance that happens. Player rotation is to be expected, but a 3-4-3 with spare parts vs Lazio is basically a loss waiting to happen.

But I dont see the difference between 3-4-3 and 3-5-2 in that case. As long as suitable players are on the field, switching between the two formation is like in ...5s or so.

Actually it's a 3421 not 343 and you can change it back to 352 at all times so...

My problem with a 3-4-3 is that candreva and asamoah are part of that 4 and not sure sensi would be as good in a 2 man cm

Inzaghi is about to be taught a lesson on how to play 3 at the back properly by no other than the master himself.

Sensi's sensimilla makes him so fluid in switching between a 2 or 3 midfielders. Lil dude is a genius
