This is the most lethal XI we've ever had this season. I'm excited, too.

Ok lineup for me. If Conte plays Rudi and Andreas on Saturday then all should be ok.

Granted I hope everyone gives a 100% today and Saturday.

It'd be tough to want more out of the squad seeing as we're going against quality sides back to back over a period of 4 days. Need to look into midfield, forward/winger and striker signings in Jan to lessen the workload in the business end of the season.

Yes sorry 

Just came in form work watching BT sport

Needs to be careful of their front 4,

 

lets hope we keep it tight. 

This will be a very tough game

When will Diego Costa get to play for Atleti? 

Our record in Spain is second to none, we have a reputation for not lying down, so don't expect AM to take us lightly.

1-1

Extra physical. I think we're lucky they don't have Costa yet.

Cahill will step up with a very good performance today. I'm happy with the team starting as the bench gives us options to take back control of the game if we are diddling.

This is very heartwarming. Check his IG and you'll sense that he didn't want his Chelsea career to end this way.

Yep. We can be right bar stewards though and play him in the Champions League and he won't get to play against us at all

I gotta admit, our kit is awful. It doesn't even look like a Chelsea kit.

Here we go

 

COME ON CHELSEA!!!!!
