The last I check Leeds are Top of the Table - Also Leeds took a lead in the match being down a man - don't devalue the win by Forest - they will come in as a legit threat & if CFC doesn't treat them correctly then this place will have a serious meltdown

I watched the game, the Forest defence was easily breached by Leeds, i wont be shocked if we score a hat full.

Not sure what forward subs we have? We can start with two of RLC,cho and Moses but if RLC plays in midfield who else is there?

Colour me retro but this could be a game to revert to a back 3 and play Moses/ Emerson as wing backs 

 

Game Day.

The FA Cup being played at 3pm on a Saturday.

Come on Chelsea.

3-0 us.

Missing a number of their key players including their top scorer...5 1 to Chelsea again...

First one is Charlie Colkett. He has recently returned from a spell at Shrewsbury that did not go well. Rarely played and for a lot of games was totally excluded out the squad. A shame for a really talented footballer who struggled to get in a L1 team.

I think the other player in the photo with RLC is Daishawn Redan, however not 100% sure but looks like him. Highly doubt any of the two will be involved but there is your answer :)

Cheers STATS, very kind. 

Two really important games ahead if we want silverware.

Wonder if we will see as many young players as we did that night? 

line-up announced for CFC

 

Well let's hope Morata can bag a couple...

Damn,Danny Drinkwater can't even get on the bench for a 3rd round fa cup game. That was 35m really well spent,. Ho[pefully we'll get some of that back in this window.

Good to see Ampadu and Hudson-Odoi both starting, lets hope they have good games.

Probably because we dont want him injured and messing up a move to Fulham.

Cahill not listed either. Youth and rotation! Zola must have taken over for the weekend.

Doesn't look to be shown on TV in Aus which is annoying.

Love the team selection, just hope it all works out and we get a result.

This is the type of game (against a decent mid table Championship side) that, like Zola said previously, Hudson-Odoi needs to be grabbing with both hands and impressing. 

Bit of a shame Gary Cahill won't be getting one last valedictory appearance against Nottm Forest, but I guess Fulham didn't want him to get cup-tied.

About as good a £7m as will ever be spent in English football. Sunderland paid more for Papy Djilobodji.

Very nice team.

Let's hope we can give cesc and his magic hat the send off he deserves hopefully everyone puts in a shift and give Sarri a few selection options...KTBFFH!!!...
