Wolves vs City
Two improving sides going all out here today, Fan finally got his man in Stroots and he's a good addition to that City team, both sides looked to get hold of the midfield and dominate from there, some nice match-ups all over the field, Wolves have a lovely blend in their front 4, some nice technique a good amount of pace and in Lukaku (although I am a big critic) brings a lot of power. City have added a fair whack of pace but not the most consistent of wide-men, when they're on it, they're on it...Icardi though is a great finisher.
Full time Wolves 2-1 City
Lukaku (Mata) (Bernadeschi)
Icardi (Walcott)
MOTM - Strootman - unlucky to be on the losing side, controlled the midfield but his attackers failed to capitalise on their chances.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pompey vs Chelsea
I like Pompeys formation as it gives them a strong foothold. However, I'm not sure on Rabiot and Matuidi in there together, would maybe bring in a ball player instead? The front three would cause Chelsea all kinds of problems - Fan sticks to his 4-3-3/4-2-3-1 and it gives him a superb front four, I still feel maybe his defence is his Achilles heel (not saying it's poor, but in comparison to the attack) BUT I imagine them out-gunning Pompey - who because of the lack of spark in the middle to really get them going, couldn't massively force Chelsea back.
Full Time
Pompey 1-3 Chelsea
Lewa (Coman)
Aguero (Pogba) Neymar (Sergio) Bonucci (Sanchez corner)
MOTM - Biscuits - love him or loathe he did the dirty work well for his team, helped nullify pompeys midfield and set the foundation for some lovely attacking play by the Chels
