Time for Brobbey to start against Chelsea?

Brobbey is there for when Isidor get's injured, that's it.

I find it crazy that so many would happily drop him when so many other teams in the league see him as a threat.

Mayenda is still too raw as much as I love him, but he can do some damage from the right late on in games.

Love Wilson, but I’d be giving Brobbey a chance now, we’ve spent big on him and he needs a run of matches.

Wilson can still have a big role to play coming off the bench at the same time as someone like Adingra

We would've had to spend more to get Isidor if he was playing for another club. Also it might feel like 'big money' but thats the going rate of a premier league squad player these days

I still think Mayenda wil score 10+ league goals this season. I’d like to see him getting more minutes and maybe starting on the right in certain games. Once he finds his feet properly and bags a couple of goals he’s going to take off. A little bit of luck with fitness etc and I’m convinced he’s the complete centre forward package who will eventually be a 20 goals a season striker in the premier league.
 
Isidor is a handful. It wasn't his best game on Saturday but the two chances he had he looked very sharp. Excellent finish for the disallowed goal and the one in the second half he had no right to get a shot in. On another day that ends in the bottom corner.

We need someone clinical in this league and he's by far the most clinical we have.
 
no, need brobbery for cup games to prove himself. He joined us late, if he joined us before preseason start, he probably in for starting 11. Anyway, I wouldnt change a winning side unless if there any injuries issues. Brobbery has to wait.
 
If it’s level pegging in the last 20
Mins, bring Brobbey on to hold it up, back to goal and either lay it off to a pacey wide man or to buy a fouls on the edge of the box for Xhaka to bang in the free kick.
0-1 smash & grab
 
Playing against Chelsea we will be relying of quick counter attacking football. This is one of the very few games we should be experimenting.

Yeah I wouldn't particularly object if we went to a back 5, and maybe Mayenda and Isidor both to start. Defend deep, hit them on the break with pace.

Basically this. If we get a goal it’ll be a smash, sprint, finish.

And he’s one of the best at that.

Good point. Put together highlights reel of Wilson this season- what would you say he’s worth?

Well, it didnt take him long to be linked with a £35m villa move. He is on 3 in 8, for a newly promoted side. Any striker that gets 10+ for a low side is instantly worth 40m+ in todays game, so lets see how he gets on. I believe had he been at Ajax last year he would've outdone Brobbeys goal tally, but that is just guesswork really isnt it. I also think Mayenda, as a spain u21 national, is also worth more than what we paid for Brobbey regardless of him not being anywhere near the finished article (mags just paid 70m for a 23yr old u21 german international)
