Spurs fans want to see Lo Celso start against Chelsea

Frank Lampard’s Chelsea host Tottenham Hotspur in Saturday’s early Premier League match.

Jose Mourinho will return to Stamford Bridge but will be without key players Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son for this crucial league encounter.

The north London club sit just one point behind fourth-placed Chelsea ahead of the clash.

However, after Giovani Lo Celso’s midweek display, many Tottenham fans want to see his name in the starting lineup, with some also desperate to see Tanguy Ndombele alongside him.

The last time these two sides met in the league, it was full of controversy on and off the pitch.

The Blues won the game 2-0 after a wonderful brace by Willian, but the match was marred by allegations of racial abuse by fans, whilst Son saw red for kicking out at Antonio Rudiger.

Lo Celso recently signed permanently for Tottenham and has also been praised by Mourinho, so these fans took to Twitter to admit they want his name in the starting XI on Saturday.
