Just pride to play for now.I hope to see an improvement on the Swansea game.....UP THE CHELS!

Good opportunity for RLC to show he can do it against the big boys.

Assuming Uncle Guus has the bottle to select him?

Would love to see Loftus-Cheek start this match. There's never been a better time to see what he's made of.

Is Hazard ready?

Is Hazard ready?

Terry, Hazard and Remy are still out. Hazard's been only training with the group for a couple of days.

 

Willian, Cahill and Matic are back from injury and available. Costa is also back from suspension.

2-1 Chelsea.

With injured players and no choice of striker the side picks itself unless Guus picks a couple of the youth.

Will really really really be pissed off with guus if RLC is benched for this match,he deserves to be in on merit the last couple of games,would be a big hit in confidemce if he isnt rewarded

I don't think we will play as much youth against city, RLC to start though and hopefully Willian back

Thing is, if we beat City..United will only be a point behind them. Much rather City get CL than United

I don't really know how our players are motivated, but Man City are not planning to win the PL anymore this season, we have a good chance to take points from them. Of course that we need to play more youth.

 

COME ON CHELS!

Come on Chelsea, give us a win.

It feels so weird that this game is basically meaningless. It's been such a vital fixture in recent years and now of course City can't win the league and we're just marking time until Conte arrives.

Hard to predict but I can see a low scoring draw or maybe a 2-1 win for City who have slightly more to play for.

With man city thinking of their next round in europe ( haha and goodbye) this will be a bore draw

Still need to try and win games and this is a difficult one, so I would hold back on throwing youngsters in for this one.  Terry and Hazard are out so Cahill and Ivan CB for me,  Azpi and Baba fullbacks.    Strongest possible starts, the more wins we can scrape together then the chance of Europa still has some hope.

 

City have a f**king horrendous record at the Bridge, think they've only won 1 in last 17 visits.     I am hoping they sing something like "Beat PSG, you'll never do that"  and we reply with "Demba Ba, he says that we have"

Begovic

Dave Cahill Miazga Kenedy

RLC Mikel

Willian Cesc Pedro

Costa

We seem to be on our summer holidays now so if city turn up they win, if not game goes to a draw.

F##k it win or lose up the blues.....KTBFFH!!!

Good selection from Hiddink: Courtois, Azpi, Ivanovic, Cahill, Baba, Mikel, Fabregas, RLC, Willian, Pedro, Costa.

Looking forward to Costa Pedro combo.

Glad to see diego back in action

Are we playing 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1? Fabregas playing deep alongside mikel only works against teams who sit back otherwise mikel is left to fill both positions in a 4-2-3-1

So glad RLC is playing again
