We need to win this home. Frankfurt were second best at their home. No excuses if we lose today. Would be fantastic to reach the final and then we can see which London team has a trophy to take home to. Tottenham won't. Sorry Tottenham. No, I take that wrongfully used sorry back.

We should win. We are good enough. It’s at home. Morale will be high. Hazard will want to play well. 

Can't take anything for granted after what we have seen last night, just got go for the win and not playing to get through on away goal or fine margin.

You mean no excuses if we lose tomorrow?

Everybody seems in a great mood ! lets hope it doesnt lead to complacency like Football Manger taught me ?

Throw the whole kitchen sink at them. I don't care what happens on Sunday as long as we win tomorrow.

I feel like this right now

but I rather lose to Eintracht than to the gooners in the Final. That would be like reliving Moscow all over.

Okay nevermind rotation Mr Sarri, select the best possible 11 tomorrow, not whomever didn't play last time.

mailed on starters imo

Hazard, RLC, Giroud (he's top scorer in comp), Pedro, Jorginho, Kepa, Dave, SSB & AC (no choice w them 2) + two more.

I would start Barkley over Kovacic

Definitely have to start our best 11 tomorrow. Sunday's game doesn't matter by comparison. 

We are going to be knocked out I reckon.

I have this horrible sense of impending doom about tomorrow. I really hope I’m wrong. My last two nights have been f**king ruined. I don’t need a third one on the spin. 

 

Sarri has to get these c**ts up for it and wired from the start. We need to blitz them and get this game out of sight as soon as possible.

Am genuinely going to have to support Liverpool in the final. Another European cup to them doesn’t mean that much. But spurs winning it is unthinkable. What a sh*t week of football so far

The Blitz will come from the Germans while we do our usual ponderous play and fail to take our chances. 

These past 2 days have drained all football hope from me.

The last 2 days have been a horror story. If these ******* dont show the heart that liverpool or spurs showed ill be furious.

We will see it. But I think from Frankfurt...

i got a bad feeling about this one, they are no push overs, and even if chelsea are bang on it,  going to be a very tough game

The two w**kers in the CL have had unbelievable nights followed tomorrow by the Chelsea and Arsenal having horror stories, well lets hope so for Arsenal anyway.....a nice to have trophy tucked in the cabinet but really as long as Arsenal or Spurs don't win a thing I'll be happy....still can't get over Spurs getting to the final....Liverpool should blow them away or it could end up as an EPL league game and end as a stale mate and penalties...God please do not let Spurs win a trophy

I don't think Frankfurt are really capable of a gameplan involving parking the bus and hitting on the counter attack, AFAIK they are a very attack-minded team, so should be another entertaining game.

If Hazard starts, as I assume he will, we should be more clinical in front of goal than the first leg.

Even though Chelsea and Arsenal are both in decent positions after the first leg, it is hard to imagine 2 all-English finals. UEFA will no doubt be doing everything in their power to avoid that scenario. We need to be on our game tomorrow.

Sucks that no broadcaster in Canada shows the Europa League.

Game Day !

Come on Chelsea !!
