There are fans who would be happy if Mauricio Pochettino wasn’t in charge of the FA Cup tie against Aston Villa.
But while the Argentine looks set to take charge at Villa Park, he appears to be skating on thin ice when it comes to his Chelsea career.
The cup run has been one of the best moments for the club this season and they will also take part in the EFL Cup final later this month.
Here’s the Chelsea Chronicle’s predicted XI for tomorrow’s FA Cup fourth-leg replay.
GK and defense
With Robert Sanchez close to returning, we will face Djordje Petrovic again tomorrow night.
With Malo Gusto taking on a more attacking wing role, the back four becomes a back five.
Next to him is Axel Disasi, who has experience playing in wide defensive positions.
With the experienced Thiago Silva in the middle surrounded by additional defenders, he will hope to exceed some expectations.
Alongside him, Benoit Badiasil returns from injury and plays his first match.
The system needs to improve Ben Chilwell’s game and help him generate more offense. partial protection
The two-man midfielder will take over from Moises Caicedo, who had a tough game against Wolves.
Alongside him, he hopes that Enzo Fernandes can evolve at a much higher level.
Cole Palmer starred despite Sunday’s 4-2 defeat and is certain to return to the starting line-up tomorrow.
Last time Christopher Nkunku was on top, but this time it will be a little deeper than nine figures.
This is due to Nicholas Jackson returning to the starting line-up for the first time since participating in the Africa Cup of Nations.
