OMG, playing Ivanovic at right back? Checked, Matic/Cesc double pivot? Checked, False 9? Checked. I hope I'm terribly wrong about this, I think we will get hammered with this set up. Didn't someone mention Remy is expecting his wife to deliver, is that why he's not even making the trip? For f* sake I hope we have some ( or lots) of luck, because this team gave me 0 confidence.

Having a few beers in sunny Spain watching the Tottenham show. Wtf.. Come on Chelsea.

This line-up confirms everyone's worst fears. Hopefully we'll get to half time only trailing by 2.

Baba Rahman has a blinder of a game, but Ivanovic starts...

Interesting sub bench though with Costa the only striker option and Djilobodji actually on the bench... If we have an injury wouldn't that make him our only go to option (unless plan A in that case is shifting Ivanovic to CB and playing Baba Rahman)?

Love your pic on the left. Sums it up perfectly for me!

Ivanovic back in the side?? Unbelievable.

I hate to say it but I can see a defeat here, I hope to god im wrong, but when has the false 9 never worked well with us?! I can't remember it working well once.

Can't watch this one as I'm at work but can see us conceding a couple down our right hand side as well.

Tottenham:

Lloris ©, Walker, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Rose; Dier, Mason; Dembele, Eriksen, Son; Kane

Nervous. Feels like a cup final.

Costa will not be missed he has been missing the last few games anyway no point playing with 10 players. I hope the pace and creativity we have can open up their defences 

BT sport bunch of biased twats, f**k em, come on Chels!

f**king knew it! ivanovic at RB?! ffs. Watch him get torn a new one once again. 

12:54 AM here in Dunedin, Work by 8. Christ, hope it will be worth it.

@Squawka: Spurs' win % in the Premier League this season:

When Dele Alli starts (66.7%)

When Dele Alli doesn't start (0%)

f**k it, willian hat trick of freekicks to win it. 

Say what you like about Stamford Bridge's atmosphere but at least we don't play Star Wars music in an attempt to generate one.

Do you expect anything better from the British press towards Chelsea 

False 9 then...?

Come on blues, this is where our season begins

Anyone got a stream?

Very nervous for this one. We should be able to beat this lot though. 

 

Lets get at em!

Fat arse is gonna get skinned

Come on blues, this is where our season begins

U took the words out of my mouth

Actually, I quite liked it. Gets you into the battle mood.

Come on Chelsea. I think it'll be close but hoping we ll nick it.
