I'm optimistic in the long run but we're going to take a beating here. 

I must say, it would be nice to bring the dirty red scum down earth a bit - everyone is hugging their nutz at the moments, where I don't even want to watch any media about Champion's League or English footie

Liverpool play 4-3-3, create plenty of chances and Chelsea lose.

Look forward to following fixtures in Sept. and October with hopefully no more injuries.

BTW, do we have a 5th fullback who can play backup LB?

As coco said, not bad just not very classy. Total c**t.

Like Klopps football but dislike the man immensely. He likes to give the impression of mr nice guy but underneath he’s a horrible bastard. Look at his reaction towards Bruce last week. He ok when he’s winning but a utter c**t when losing. 

Please please please SLF do this f**ker over.

(Have to admit if Klopp had been our manager I’d probably be ok with him.)

People hated Conte for the same reason "over celebrating". Depends on with side you are, if he is your coach everything is good i guess. 

Thou i have to say Conte never directed his celebrations towards another Manager. Klopp takes it way too personal ??.

By people you mean Mourinho, and we all know why he took it personal. 

Game Day!!Already on the train up, the chap in our station ticket office looked at me as knows we are Chelsea and said going bloody early?, I said it's the Frank effect, long day ahead, first stop fry up in Clapham. UTC

Love to be there, have to do with Brighton next week. I'm changing my mind on Mount the closer it gets to k/o...might be worth the risk. Anything to beat them.

Van Dijk is overrated, Klopp spent tons of money right after he said he doesn't agree with spending and now 1 player got all the praise which happens to be Van Dijk...Klopps tactics worked already without him, now watch as Tammy destroys Van Dijk!

4-2 Chelsea .....

We are going to win a home game sooner or later, let this be the one!

The Frank effect is turning half the forum into habitual alcoholics.

Unless the scum have an off day I think its fair to say they will continue unbeaten; they are strong all over the park and been playing well as their record suggests.  Don't look at the result in the Super Cup, a friendly affair which we should have won, today will be different mindset.....if we manage to take a point I'd be happy, beating them will make Pep very happy and Frank having a bigger grin, without the Colgate whitening, than that prick managing the team in red....I just hope the defence doesn't crumble and we take a beating, I can't take too much more of this media w**k fest for Liverpool to win the league.

What a game...just mentioned it in the predictions thread

We always turn up for Pool so us putting a few pass them won't be surprising had we been playing Bournemouth my prediction would be different LOL

Had a lot of practice over the decades following Chelsea, as said the ‘Frank effect’ helps me (hang being the operative word)in there. Come on the Chels.

 

ps. Change in plans, just started pissing down so going down the pub. Missus can cook Sunday dinner in the oven.

I think the saving grace is that we’re at the Bridge, we could have a slim chance! We’d be bent over if it was there.

Any decent pubs near Stamford bridge?

No we wouldn't Chelsea always turn up for Liverpool there is something that happens to our players against Liverpool that makes us show up..I expect high tempo high press game from us, you couldn't ask for a better manager to convey to the players what this match means....we are going to win...
