Cleverley

Disappointed with the news that Cleverley is out for 6-8 weeks. I thought he had settled in really well and had been one of the better performers so far. I suppose it could have been worse, as it looked bad when first done.

Someone elses chance to make the starting place their own I suppose!!

if it means Deulofeu comes in I'm not disappointed at all

Against Chelsea I'd go with

------------------ Howard
Coleman - stones - jagielka - mori*
Lennon - McCarthy - Barry - Mirallas
------------------ Barkley
------------------ Lukaku

Bring deulofeu on if we go behind and go 4-3-3

*galloway and Oviedo both have knocks so may not be fit in time

To early for Mori I think

Howard
Coleman - Stones - Jags - Barry
Lennon - McCarthy - Barkley - Besic
Mirallas
Lukaku

Oviedo in for Barry if he is fit. Del boy on when Lennon tires, not last five minutes !!!

Apparently Deulofeu was MOTM for Spain U21's last night and played full 90 mins, so his fitness must be getting there now.
I'd play him from the start against Chelsea but on the left, so he can have a go at Ivanovic, considering how poor he's been this season. If Lennon is fully fit I'd play him down the right as he can help Coleman look after Hazard.

---------------------------Howard------------------------
Coleman--------Stones-------Jags-----------Oviedo
------------McCarthy--------------Barry----------------
Lennon----------------Barkley--------------Deulofeu
--------------------------Lukaku-------------------------

Mirallas hasn't looked great so far this season, so he can take his place on the bench in my book.

Mirallas looked good against Barnsley but like most of the team was fairly poor against spurs

Will lennon be fit? Match fit? Not played any pre season as far as I am aware & not been in the spurs squad this season.

Martinez did say Gerard wasn't fit.

But we have plenty of options. Shame about Cleverly but we have Ossie

I appreciate he may be unfit for 90 minutes, despite playing all ninety last night, but he must be fit enough to come on for more than 5 minutes in the premier league games! He can be literally the dictionary definition of an impact sub but he needs more than 5 minutes!!

His 5 mins the other day should have been about 15. But the ball never went out to make it
