Oh yeah, I forgot about prolific goalscorer from midfield Kante!

To be fair to him, he does make some good runs...

If we play a high line it might not be alright with pace of Auba etc

He’ll have Rudi hunting him down

While the rest have their hands in the air appealing for offside. Alonso will be too busy in the LW position, so Bellerin should be walking past him

Please let there be some truth to this:

Sarri says Morata has been training with the squad as normal, and is available for selection for tomorrow's game, but he doesn't know whether he will play yet.

Ruben Loftus-Cheek, with a back problem, is the only player unavailable.

Sarri says our game against Arsenal in August was different, but he learnt they have very dangerous movements without the ball in the offensive phase, which means we need to be careful.

Sarri on Giroud: "I don't know [if he will start], but I think that Giroud in the first six months played very often. Then it's normal I think that sometimes I can choose something different"

Sarri on Spygate: "In Italy, yes [I've heard of it]. I don't know what to say. I prefer to study my opponents by video. It's very difficult to have a lot of information in the last two days [before a match]"

Sarri says he's never spied on opponents, adding: "I'm not a very good spy, I think"

Sarri reiterates he doesn't want to talk to Hudson-Odoi about his future: "I'm very happy with him because we worked with him from one month ago on the defensive phase & he improved immediately. Now we are working with him on movements off the ball & he is improving a lot"

Sarri says Hudson-Odoi is in a "very positive moment" at Chelsea & praises his attitude in training.

Sarri on midfield replacement for Fabregas: "Marina knows very well my opinion. We need a replacement for Cesc, my opinion"

Sarri: “I want to be clear, I spoke to Marina [Granovskaia] two weeks ago, she knows my opinion and then I decided to be focused on the pitch and training.

“I know that Marina is working very hard, but I know nothing about the market. I don’t call her every evening, otherwise I spend my energy on the market, it is better to spend mental energy on the pitch.”

As usual Sarri does not know anything about transfers, will play false 9 again as he's not convinced with either Morata or Giroud.

Apparently PSG have joined the race for Paredes, they'll beat us to it.
