Happy with our Europa league group but tbh I would have been happy with any of them and teams our second team should batter them. I hope Loftus-Cheek stays. There's 6 definite games there for him to get 90 mins not to mention against Liverpool in the cup. If he plays well and someone like Kovacic got injured he could force his way in.

Ampadu, Emerson, Loftus-Cheek and Hudson-Odoi should start all of these it will be good for them.

Then we could use experienced backups around them in Caballero, Zappacosta, Luiz, Barkley, Fàbregas, Willian and Giroud.

Add Cristiansen and Tammy to the starters.

Very disappointed to see Tammy heading out on loan, feel like even if Villa get promoted the best he can hope for in terms of using it as a stepping stone to the first team is they take him on loan again next year and he can get a look in at Chelsea after that.

Still, hope he has a great season for them-shame there’s no JT there for him to play with this year.

Never included Christensen because for me he should be starting next to Rudiger in the league Luiz should partner Ampadu in the Europa league as experience.
