Chelsea v Man Utd team news: Alonso starts as Mount, Havertz and Ronaldo benched

1,860 Comments

In the final match of Gameweek 13, Chelsea take on Manchester United at Stamford Bridge, with Fantasy interest mostly centred around the hosts backline.

Kick-off is at 16:30 BST.

Chelsea, who have conceded just four goals in 12 league matches this season, make four changes from Gameweek 12, with Marcos Alonso (£5.6m), Ruben Loftus-Cheek (£5.4m), Hakim Ziyech (£7.3m) and Timo Werner (£8.6m) replacing Ben Chilwell (£5.9m), N’Golo Kante (£4.9m), Mason Mount (£7.5m) and Kai Havertz (£8.0m).

That means another start for Reece James (£6.2m), who has four goals and four assists from nine Premier League appearances this term, plus Trevor Chalobah (£4.8m). As a result, Cesar Azpilicueta (£5.8m) is once again a substitute, along with Romelu Lukaku (£11.5m) who is back from injury.

The headline news for Man Utd, who will have Michael Carrick in the dugout, is that Cristiano Ronaldo (£12.4m) drops to the bench with Bruno Fernandes (£11.6m), Jadon Sancho (£8.9m) and Marcus Rashford (£9.4m) preferred in the attacking roles.

GAMEWEEK 13 LINE-UPS

Chelsea XI: Mendy, Chalobah, Thiago Silva, Rudiger, James, Loftus-Cheek, Jorginho, Alonso, Ziyech, Hudson-Odoi, Werner

Subs: Arrizabalaga, Christensen, Lukaku, Pulisic, Saul, Barkley, Mount, Azpilicueta, Havertz

Man Utd XI: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Bailly, Telles, Fred, Matic, McTominay, Fernandes, Sancho, Rashford

Subs: Henderson, Jones, Ronaldo, Mata, Martial, Greenwood, Lingard, Dalot, Van de Beek

    Only way to get to Jota is to sell Antonio as part of a hit. Antonio has Brighton at home next game. Bad move?

      IDK - Antonio has returned only twice in the last 10 GWs.

      Brighton aren't too leaky, and guess I would prioritise Jota. As has been said - fixtures ease up soon.

    Alonso was crap today, I’m wondering if he even starts against Watford? Chelsea fans not best pleased with him

      I thought he was decent... Got into the box, good corners. Not sure what Chelsea fans want, considering its his first game back in like a month

        He wasn't attacking, all his corners came to nothing, not so sharp first touch, mostly got caught up & passed backwards. Lacked intent!

          This is true actually. The back passes are just classic Alonso.

          Others giving upvotes are because he did 'fantasy good' things like corners which is true, but as you say they were a bit too loopy and threatening.

          I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt coming back from not playing consistently, up against United who only wanted to defend & counter attack..

          Watford next is a different situation. Not quite as tricky (hopefully).

    Means I can bench Mbuemo and transfer out next week. What an awful signing he has been instead of Gallagher and ESR.
