What's new

Bayern Munich (3) vs (0) Chelsea 08/08/20, 20:00 GMT

It would be the Chelsea way to win it now. We have done it before.

It's one of those matches that serves absolutely no purpose given its timing, our injuriy list and suspensions, first game result and the quality of our opposition. Even if we had everyone available and in top form, our chances of overcoming three goal deficit would have been miniscule, now it's basically a pointless formality.

The only thing we can hope for is not to be embarrassed.

 
“Christian is probably a six week injury with Azpilicueta hopefully three weeks. Pedro as we know is moving on but hopefully six weeks after an operation. Willian’s is improving but not right for this game.”

Anybody want to give these fellas a call to see if they're free tomorrow night?

Kante and RLC are fit enough to play, not sure if we want to rush them back for this game, it would be terrible if either of them got injured yet again.

Forget those three, what is Ryan Bertrand doing? He went alright last time at the Allianz.

I fancy an open game more akin to a friendly. Fancy us to win on the night but to go down overall.

 
Not expecting a miracle, but hopefully get a result on the night just to show we belong to this league.

With a full team i'd actually be quite if not confident hopeful. Our match fitness advantage is massive and with a fully fit Puli, Azpi and even Willian if we brought a similar A game to what we did in our clashes vs City there was genuinely a chance, an early goal would have had a rusty Bayern very tense especially with the history of us playing in that stadium.

But yeah, it's almost certainly going to be too much with tonights team.

Or they let their guard down with overconfidence.

 
It's a good chance for CHO to show what he can do. Our mentality should be to fight, Bayern needs to finish the job because we shouldn't surrender even if we have very low odds to win.

Yeah, that's probably how I see it as well. Although there is this tiniest slither of hope...to be quashed quickly probably  :rolleyes:

I think we're going down 3-1, but please no more injuries and no bookings that will result in a suspension in the new season.

 
Squad of 23 have travelled apparently :

Goalkeepers: Kepa Arrizabalaga ; Willy Caballero ; Jamie Cumming

Fullbacks: Reece James  ; Emerson Palmieri ;  Ian Maatsen

Central defenders: Antonio Rudiger ; Andreas Christensen ; Kurt Zouma; Fikayo Tomori ; Dynel Simeu

Midfielders: N'Golo Kante ; Ross Barkley ; Mateo Kovacic ; Mason Mount ; Ruben Loftus-Cheek ; Lewis Bate ; Henry Lawrence

Forwards: Callum Hudson-Odoi ; Olivier Giroud ; Tammy Abraham ; Michy Batshuayi ; Armando Broja

Don't waste any optimism, save it for the new season.

I am optimistic about one thing, we'll have a few knobs calling for Franks head.

And another thing, for every one of them knobs, their are a hundred thousand behind Frank all the way.

Yeah I mean whatever happens can't change the fact he's done a very good job this season. I just hope that we don't lose by a big margin.

 
Not to be negative, but I don’t see Chelsea doing much in this game. This game will be over by first half.
