Really important to win this one. Then we should comfortably brush Bournemouth aside.

Though a draw wouldn't be a disaster.

We wont get playing the kind of stuff we did in Israel, and without Costa in any kind of form I see us getting beat relatively comfortably.

If we do win I will be believe we are pretty much 'back', but I can see this ending up 2-0 spuds....Hope I am wrong, obviously!

I agree with the general air of pessimism about this game, we look so fragile and Spurs look worrying good at the moment.

 

I will be happy with a draw, but expecting a loss. 

I'll take a 1-0 to us

 

Come on Chelsea.

 

And I'll take a Scarlett Johansson tonight. Thanks.

lol of course not mate. but it looks like he trained today.

How does it knowing JT he could have been wearing a suit 30 seconds before this pic was taken lol

Baba does offer some nice width on the overlap but jeez he's not the finished article as a defender - play him on Saturday and we'll be trashed on our LH side.

 

The alternatives being: Ivanovic at right back (or Zouma) or Kenedy at left back (who is terrible defensively).

Sorry, but I trust Baba Rahman much more defensively than any of the above.

No it just means he can't resist a free drink.

Based on this seasons form, you play Ivanovic on the right and teams will target him as the weakness.

So which is the lesser of two evils?

At least with Baba he has enough pace to be able to recover and offers natural width and can deliver a half decent cross.

I think we need to start the rebuilding process and I think that includes showing some faith in Baba.

We looked a lot better midweek with the natural width Dave and Baba offered on the overlap.

Of course I will

not sure who really plays for spudz, but they appear to be at full strength at the moment vs Qarabag in Europa Liga action.

Qarabag

From the radio, I assumed they were playing a side called caravan.

Is that what you call it in Hackney?

#THFC team: Lloris ©, Trippier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Davies; Dier, Mason; Alli, Eriksen, Son; Kane

 

 

 

Strong team.

Need a lot of luck to beat that lot

They will be well up for it. Something I haven't witnesses this year with all but 2 or 3 Chelsea players.

Costa needs to sort himself out , JT is a massive miss if unfit , hope it's a wind up.

Early KO here. Could be one for the DVR as out watching the Flaming Groovies on Sat night.

Im tired read how strong team are Tottenham.We are Chelsea and we dont care.

If they put out the same team 48 hours after a game in whatever eastern european country they just played in, we're gonna win

We'll be running 'round the Tottenham with our willies hangin' out...

Alli is suspended, reached the booking limit in their last match.

Ooh ok should really have known that considering I watched their last game.

Have a feeling they could drub us.

I will be surprised if Mourinho does not play this lineup. Ramires might be on for Pedro as an option but apart from that the rest of the positions I feel will be the same. I see Pedro providing more cover to Ivanovich's side.
