I understand your frustration but that's my opinion on it.
March 7, 20188 yr with none of this false 9 rubbish and either giroud or morata up front, chelsea should over power this lot no problems, hazard and willian should prove to much for them

I understand your frustration but that's my opinion on it. it was kind of tongue in cheek. i probably will try to watch games unless i am busy. i don't think our style of play will be the same for rest of the season, it was a one off game. we need to go into games from here on out trying to win.

I hope that is the last time Conte goes into a game more scared of winning instead of going for the win. We have played Arsenal 5 times this season and not won one beause Conte is so scared of Arsenals possesion football. It irked me when he said we have to be prepared to suffer against arsenal. FREAKING ARSENAL who got bukkaked by Man city and lost to brighton. The point is show Arsenal respect and they will dance all over you, Take the game to them and they capitulate like little boys. Crystal palace and Wigan took the game to city and got results . The reason City are running away with the league is because teams are afraid before the game starts. Look at how Liverpool exposed them. I just pray that Conte is more proactive against Barca regardless of the result. RANT OVER... p.s. Spurs are losing to Juve right now, i hope they comeback so they have more games and are fatigued or we ae f**ked in the race for top 4.
March 7, 20188 yr No false number nine , Play a proper centre forward and we will win 2-0. Play a false 9 and who knows. Spuds are out the champions league so things ain' that bad
March 8, 20188 yr https://www.theguardian.com/football/2018/mar/08/wilfried-zaha-return-crystal-palace-chelsea-recovery Remarkable eh?
March 8, 20188 yr Our defensive three always seem to struggle when faced with two big strikers, add Townsend into the equation and it is obvious we cannot take this lightly.
March 9, 20188 yr This is going to be tough Tibo Azpi AC Rudi Zappa Kante DD Palmeiri Willian Giroud Hazard This would be my starting 11 for the game. Somehow Conte will find a way to shaft in cesc and pedro

Palace are fighting for their lives and will bring passion and character with them, our lot in many games this season have been weak in character and gutless. If you had to choose a team to be next to you in the trenches it wouldn't be the present Chelsea team sadly. I sit here hoping we will put another 13 game winning run together to finish season in top 4 and winning fa cup, but can't see it
March 9, 20188 yr Zaha is back and obviously he will hurt us like usually... But we need this win, because otherwise bye bye all hopes for top4 Although our bad resultats currently, we will support Chelsea in bad or good form
March 9, 20188 yr If Chelsea can't beat a Palace team at home missing 10+ players then they might as well give up on top 4 now.
March 9, 20188 yr Said it before and I'll say it again. Don't care about the result in this game, because I think top 4 is unlikely at this point. I just want the players to go out there and give us a f**king good performance! Go out there like we are the current Champions and punish those South London pretenders like the second rate club that they are! Put in a performance anything like we did against City and I'll be fuming!
March 9, 20188 yr Frankly I don't give a **** about this game. Top 4 is important etc... But when you have to play barça 4 days later and have a chance of going to UCL QF, well you'd better fckuing show up and go for it !!! I'd rather take a draw (loss will be revolting !!!) or a so so win against these cnuts and make it big vs barça in the hope of making a great upset rather than the other way around. Don't want to risk anything (injuries). and UCL should prevail over the PL when there's a clash in dates like that !!!Plus, PL is not anymore worth of anything for us unless tiring ourselves to hypothetical 4th place (blame the bournemouth and Watford games for that !!!) ! Whereas a 1-0 result against barça will get us through and make this season a 1000 times more exciting than it's been so far ... And even if we go out, we'd better only go out after having done a great match and fight so there would be no shame !! For that, I believe we need to rest our main men then against cp... I am not saying PL should be discarded, but for that particular game, I'd rather see the kids in order to preserve everyone for the big one !! ps : even a draw will be revolting against dross like cp!!! But a so so win without risking or playing to full potential, I don't really mind as long as we can go the distance in spain on tuesday. Edited March 9, 20188 yr by Londonisblue
March 9, 20188 yr Look at what happened to PSG with Neymar against Marseille ... Fingers crossed, but I don't even want to imagine anything like that happening to Hazard!!!!!

Logically we should give our all for a top 4 spot and forget Barcelona; but it's the reverse which gets my balls tingling and heart racing. Barcelona will be a moment. A special moment, regardless of outcome - but if we win - this goes on to become a special season. There's no other way of transforming this season into one worth remembering. We should do all it takes to win the CL - it's possible.
March 9, 20188 yr Plus, a good showing in the CL, not the top 4 battle, is what the likes of Courtois and Hazard desire. If we want to keep our best players, make the best competitions priority

March 9, 20188 yr zaha needs to f**k off. a "remarkable" recovery just in time for us. bloody typical isn't it lol

What is it with us where certain players always seem to do it against us? Don't care who they have playing for them tomorrow - we MUST beat them.
March 9, 20188 yr I would rest the likes of Hazard and Kante for the Barca game. Give Emerson, Ampasu, Giroud, and Hudson-Odoi a start.

Don't care who they have playing for them tomorrow - we MUST beat them. the problem is, we have barca on wednesday so will be interesting if conte rests a couple players and brings them on second half. however, at home we really should be winning this. i can't get excited though considering the slip ups against opposition we should, on paper, be beating.
