So many great performances today. I thought Silva give a masterclass when he came on in making the right decisions, calming things down, wasting time etc. But only on for a half so I’ve went for Christiansen who goes from strength to strength.

Thiago Silva = class act.

Absolutely disgusting. The ball hit his arm from the leg and then the arm followed through making no further contact. How can a player not get booked for kicking the ball away, this has been a rule for 30 years. Henderson is a c**t.

Liverpool 1-2 Chelsea Lukaku 34

Didn’t see this coming. Would have been a lot more dangerous at city, not that bothered by him going back to Utd as he’s not what they need.

He’ll be a very good signing for city unfortunately. He’s a superb finisher and city will give him loads of chances.

What a brilliant photo. I’m sure not even in their wildest dreams, at that age, could they ever have imagined what the future would hold for them.

James for me. Granted I only see first half and highlights of second. Liked what I saw of Kai today and of course Lukaku was a beast.

Change Werner to Lukaku 7. still 0-3 Chelsea.

Arsenal 0 - 3 Chelsea Warner 7. 😂

This is my place on the official site with scoring 25 points for 3-0 prediction. 32 point total.

Hope it goes well for him at Roma, I think it’s a good move. I wish him well.

People forget that he was fairly sh*t at the start of last season before he got injured. Was at fault for at least 3/4 goals and was present for their 7-2 defeat by villa. Good enough player but the hype about him way OTT.

Just looking at the expert predictions and they all go for the same top four teams in various orders. Surprised Leicester didn’t make it into someone’s top 4. Pity Jermaine Jenas hadn’t been asked. Chelsea wouldn’t have made his top 4 and Tottenham predicted as champions. My prediction would be runners up.

From top of the table to bottom in one glorious Friday night of football.

Must bear that in mind!! 👍

Chelsea 3 - Palace 0, Werner - 17 @Valerie you’re probably safe enough, I’m crap at predictive leagues.

Great evening at Windsor Park. Although the match itself wasn’t brilliant the result made up for it. My take on the match:- In prematch warm up Kepa has some good ball skills, first class keepie-uppie and Kova never missed in shootie-in. I thought Chalobal give a good account of himself. One big mistake which could have been costly when he initially done well but tried to be a bit clever instead of safety first. Didn’t get a lot of help from CHO who I thought was generally poor. Mendy done well apart from a couple of brain fart moments in kicking out. Rudiger needs to be careful with the follow through, looked a bit reckless and refs will keep an eye out for him. Alonso was MOTM for me, worked hard, covered well and was probably our best attacker. Kante had some genius interceptions, you wonder how he does it and rarely misses a pass even when under pressure. Our midfield was poorer when he went off. Up front Havertz had some nice touches but I thought we were pretty toothless. For me Pulisic looks like a player playing about two leagues above him can fully understand why TT doesn’t play him much. Really happy for Kepa in the shootout. Will do his confidence the world of good.

There’s a Monico Bar in Belfast. That’s where he’ll be having a few Guinness and a pastie supper. Needs to gain a few lbs after that Italian diet has him away to scrapings.

Anyone else get a ticket? Entry to the ground is a bit confusing. UEFA site is saying proof of negative PCR test it Lateral flow test required. This has been the information on the there site for some time. The IFA put on their site specifically for the Supercup final that proof of double vaccine would be enough or negative test.
