Some Chelsea fans react to crazy squad depth as Blues bench Pulisic and Havertz

Frank Lampard has just announced his lineup for today’s game against Tottenham, and the Chelsea boss has pretty much been able to pick his dream XI.

The good form that the side has been in with Tammy Abraham up front and Timo Werner on the left means that the manager has left the returning Christian Pulisic on the bench.

A few months ago that would have caused uproar, as the US international starred in the post-lockdown period.

But the injuries and bad form he’s suffered since mean that nobody is surprised to see him left on the bench today as a potential weapon to use in the second half.

Fans on social media were just happy to see him back in the matchday squad, rather than desperate for him to start.

Most pointed to the crazy depth we’ve got now, with two amazing players like Havertz and Pulisic both on the bench.
