Wrexham vs Chelsea (FAC) Saturday 7th March 17:45 GMT

Very important that we make a good start, a young and inexperienced team could struggle if things go pear shaped early on.

Very brave to leave Caicedo & Enzo at home, as unused subs they shouldn't use up too much energy. I hope LR knows what he is doing.☹️

 
That whole left side again. Omg. The SD didn’t pick a great side lol 😂

Oh dear lord I missed that. What kind of a message does that send out?

You’d think Sanchez would be the obvious captain for this one.

Hato was captain of they who cannot be named.

Andrey Santos captain at Brazil youth level

Tosin is not good enough to play for Wrexham

Midfield choice is a tad risky.

Lavia injury prone ... and the bench cover for midfield is the injury-prone Essugo, or James, who could do with a rest as much as Caicedo or Enzo.

 
Tosin captain. Amazing.

Rosenior is aware that the objective is to win the match right? That XI is a bit f**king grim.

That said, somewhat understandable that he'd pick this game to rest players in (see below for our March schedule), I just imagined a less... er... 'dramatic' set of changes:

At least we're starting our best keeper. It may also be some comfort to know that Wrexham are resting/missing a few of their big hitters too (three of their top five scorers in the league aren't in the starting XI).

Good to see both Lavia and Essugo back, we may finally have some midfield depth so we don't have to start Caicedo/Enzo fifteen times in thirty days like we did in January. Will be curious to see how Hato and Acheampong get on as (presumed) wing-backs.

Never fear, Garnacho will score a hat-trick and get MOTM. Santos or Acheampong should be captain though.

P.S. The Rodriguez on their bench is the now 36-year-old Jay Rodriguez. He has scored against us four times over the course of his career.

I did look at the bench quickly after seeing Lavia is starting...

And Santos was Rosenior's captain at Strasbourg as well. Surprised he hasn't been given a go here !

Yup. A captain should lead in some sort of positive way. More likely Tosin inspires a collapse.

 
No sign of Kavuma-McQueen on the bench then ! Why not include him at the expense of one of the 4 defenders ?

So much for the pre-match press briefing LOL.

All on Jesse Derry, Reece James and Joao Pedro when Delap, Neto and Co blow this.

Yes that was pretty much my take on perusing the bench too !

Actually I thought "all on Joao Pedro" 😎
