Matic on the bench. Conte is using Fabregas instead to unlock Stokes defense. Hope it works.

As some other have pointed out this might be because Matic is one yellow away from suspension. Maybe Conte is saving him for next week?

Cesc is the only surprise. Otherwise normal. Come on Chelsea!!!!!

Crouch so set pieces galore

Yes, that could be why.

That's the first time I've not seen the team sheet on the Chelsea official twitter...weird 

Edit* had it under the photos tab what a bellend

Hopefully the choice to protect matic is a good one and we do not regret doing the same with Luiz. We are due a good performance and goal from willian today I reckon. 

Strong team, I prefer the partnership of fab & Kante over Matic & Fab. Hoping for a relatively straight forward win but we tend to struggle against Stoke.

Not gonna be easy as some have predicted but we're strong enough to win. Come on Chelsea.

Can someone share a link to watch please?

Crazy that Bony, a £30m signing on loan from City, is second choice to a 35 year old Peter Crouch. 

Was Bony ever that good, was it an impulse buy from City?

Not sure if I am allowed to post it, but you can get plenty of links from livetv.sx. If your ISP blacklisted that domain, use the Tor browser (or a VPN) :)

wiziwig.ru

Or cricfree is another good link

 

Let's get the 13th!

f**kin hate charlie adam,always goes out his way to try and injure our players and gets away with it

Evidently Conte thinks Stoke will park the bus, explaining Cesc instead of Matic.

New Years is already in Brisbane - let's celebrate with a 13th straight win!

He was great At vitesse and Swansea from what I can recall , he replaced Drogba when he retired from the national team on the starting eleven , its been a while since he started a lot of consecutive games but then again it might be a sign that he is not that good or poor work ethic

Shawcross and Adam are one of the biggest c**ts ever.

Pretty good for Swansea, not City quality, has obviously suffered with lack of game time. 

Slow f**king WiFi [emoji34]

I only have half an ear on the R5L radio commentary but have we actually touched the ball yet ?

Good quality stream if anyone needs. 

I love how teams are forced to play us at our own game changing their line up to suit ours
