wish george mccreachan was not with the england u17's, would have loved to have seen him on the bench, he's such a quality little midfielder. apart from reece james, billy gilmour, ampadu and dujon sterlin, our development youth squad have been underwhelming this season. 

This is a disaster, pubs still not opened and a whole bunch of us waiting for them to open their doors!!

think we need to go with Pedro morata and hazard up front. We need to really go at them rather than sitting back.

it is vital we get a win today, we need to start picking up momentum again. 

I hope we can, but we just don’t look right at the moment.., and watford will be very tough I can see them scoring and possibly us ending up drawing. 

 

I forgot to mention that we  have another crap referee today. Jonathan Moss is usually a nightmare of a ref.

i fear it will be another draw today

i have a feeling we might see chelsea absolutely destory watford today.

Team to play Watford: Courtois, Rudiger, Cahill, Azpilicueta, Alonso, Luiz, Fabregas, Bakayoko, Hazard, Pedro, Morata. 

Subs: Caballero, Musonda, Zappacosta, Willian, Batshuayi, Christensen, Ampadu.

IDIOTIC TEAM SELECTION AGAIN TODAY!!!

 

WHY THE f**k IS ANDREAS DROPPED FOR CAHILL AND FABREGAS IN A 2 MAN MIDFIELD. JESUS 

I dont know what to expect to be honest. 

Christiensen on the bench !! At Cahill starts he’s taken leave of his senes

Shambolic from Conte. Everyone and their mum can see Cesc is struggling. 

Very poor selection cesc HAS to play in a 3 he offers nothing in a 2

I can’t fathom how Cahill gets near this side. Does conte even look at stats for Christ sake

Just hope Cesc proves me wrong and pulls of a great performance.

ok ok calm down guys, cahill isnt as good as christensen but he should be fine. lets set what they do first.

I have a feeling we are playing with an unfit Bakayoko and Luiz.  This may back fire on us.  But i like that Rudiger is in the back 3 and that Azpi is at right wing back.  At least he wont be exposed as much there.  But Zappacosta - what does this make of him,  why did we even sign him then?  When we are short of players at right wing back - he still can't make the starting 11??

Oh dear....another brutal team selection...still I have a bit of sympathy given the list of injuries we have.  I really don't hold out hope for the midfield and as for the back 4 well, we'll discuss that as the game develops I guess.

AZPI should have been rested and Zappa should have taken his place. No way the poor guy can run up and down that wing today. Poor guy must be knackered playing every 2 days. 

Azpi come back at Wing back-position, otherwise none change. 

Fabregas-Bakayoko again one time, we will see that gonna give. 

Come on BLUES !!!!!!!

Pedro is the  man today!! Fresh unlike the others who have been playing regularly. Cmon Pedro 

I can understand Cesc due to injuries Conte has no choice. But Christensen shouldn't have been dropped. 

I've seen the hash tag #ConteOut amongst some Chelsea "fans" in the last few hours, f**king embarrassing.

i suspect that's why rudiger is starting because he has extra pace.

Most of them on twitter are 15 year olds. Dont pay mind to it. 

Conte won us the title last year, we dont also know much about what is the status of individual players, christensen not being selected could simply be for rotation. might see him swapped for cahill in the next match. lets wait and see.

We shall see after the game if this was a good choice.

i agree fabs is the weak link but we are short of options.
