Happy to see Kante start IF he’s fit, hope we don’t see him come off after 15 mins or so cos he’s not up to it. 

Is is it worth risking a great player over a fully fit, average-good one?

Kante not guaranteed to actually play, Sarri saying they’re going to see if he can make it through the pre-match warm up. 

Maybe Sarri playing his cards close to his chest but still, sounds risky!

Like that they are starting Cech after the news last week, he deserves it.

Hardly a yardstick for the whole game the warm up! Sounds like he isn’t anywhere near fit then. Can see him being taken off after 15 minutes even if he does start.

Whatever happens happens, last game for Hazard so hope he shows up!

COME ON CHELS!!!

Cech starting for sentimental reasons seems a bit risky for Arsenal. Leno is better. But if it means we score then so be it. 

Can anyone send me a stream that's on now? Turns out someone cancelled the BT sport subscription in my house...

BT are streaming it for free on YouTube:

It's geo-blocked but a VPN does a fine job. 

 

Edit: sorry, Zeta beat me to it.

You have to pay the subscription.

I am watching it on BR football on TNT West, an American channel. Enjoying the pre-game punditry from 4 people with little football knowledge. Much the same as SKY and BT Sport.

Not blocked in the UK though so fair play for once to BT

cant watch it our servers are ireland based and not streamed to there so got to watch it on phone

 

Punditry awful on BR. Some English bird w w flame pattern top on and a few ex USA players breaking it all down. 

Bye bye Eden please do us all proud today   & Sarri too hope you leave with a medal if you’re following him out the door  

Confidently anxious currently. 

Come on Chelsea !!!

Weird dancing and looks a big ground.

Hope I’m wrong but I suspect they’ll have an edge by virtue of having a couple of decent strikers. And if Kante starts I fear it’ll be minutes before he limps off the park. Big ask for us tonight with all the injuries and inept strikers. Fingers crossed we find something in our locker (Eden Hazard) and win this.

no atmosphere according to bt

w**k pre-match “entertainment” that no one cares about. 

All I can think is surely 50 people prancing all over the pitch, a stage and pyrotechnics on the surface just before kick off isn’t conducive to a good playing surface?

Hope YouTube stream doesn’t lag

is that Eddie Newton ?

Nice balance of pundits on YouTube, Cesc, Eidur and Keown.

I have always thought that the Europa League trophy has a much better design than the Champions League one.

Our lads don't look very relaxed.
