I don’t look at the table anymore to keep my sanity

I can easily see us losing this also such is our luck already this season

I see a draw here, have a no natural right back, second choice striker. Fulham is not scoring many but don't concede many either, will be a tight game.

 
This must be the first time for years that there's a genuine "rivalry" between Chelsea and Fulham. Come on you Blues 

 
Fulham will be a difficult opponent.  Silva always has them playing hard. This should be a winnable match. Cucurella is back in the fold and it worries me.  Hope I'm wrong and he can change his ways.  CFC really needs to win this game.

 
The table lies. I don’t often say that but we are way better than 15th. On goals against we are 5th. There is lots of upside might not show against Fulham but we will discover how to score goals. 

 
Poch said earlier in the week he hopes to have Carney and Noni available for selection tonight. Personally, I don't expect either to start, but could definitely see Carney coming on in the 2nd half if he's on the bench.

Loads of question marks over the lineup going into tonights game, if anyone guesses 11/11 correctly I'd be shocked. That said, I think I'd start us like this, and try and limit Broja to the last 35 or so, so that he can (hopefully) go 100% without fading.

              Sanchez
Disasi Silva Colwill Cucurella
    Ugochukwu Gallagher
Sterling  Enzo  Mudryk
            Palmer


Without Jackson and Chilwell we lose two players able to compete in the air, which we'll need when defending set pieces, this is why I think Ugochukwu starts over Caicedo. (Although Caicedo is sneaky good in the air for someone his height, to be fair to him).

Bloody hell. Gallagher in multiple scenarios being preferred over both Caicedo and Enzo.

Caicedo  Disasi  Colwill  Cucurella​

Ugochukwu  Enzo​

Sterling  Palmer  Mudryk​

Broja​

Never gonna happen but worth a try.

He's going to start. I'm pretty certain. Without Reece and Chilly he'll be captaining the side.

Plus I'd argue without a real striker on the pitch it makes sense to play our CM most likely to pop up with a goal, which is Con.

Most likely to score a goal?  hhhhmmmmm. He's not though is he. How many goals has he scored for Chelsea?  Answer is you won't need both your hands to count them.

 
Something like this I guess. Would ideally like to see one or both of Broja and Deivid get minutes too:

Sánchez

Disasi
Silva
Colwill

Gallagher
Caicedo
Fernández
Maatsen

Palmer
Mudryk
Sterling
