Hopefully we make it 5 out of our last 6 today.

Come on Chelsea.

Really need 3 points with City up next. Not to be negative, but we would probably expect to lose that against them. If we drop points today then we could be out of the top 4. 

Haven't said that for 3 months, but finally there is a GAMEDAY!!!

So exited to see our players, the lineup, the gameplay. 

COME ON CHELS!!!

You’re confident!

Hoping to see Ruben today. Unlikely to start just off the bench would be a great start for him. 
 

Intrigued to see the line up and who frank selects. 

Gilmour has to start after his previous games surely. I have a feeling Frank will start Oli as well.

Have no Idea what to expect here but let's see how we start again.

If Villa plays deep and stay compact it is all about taking those few chances. Most of the early games have shown sides are a bit rusty and it is hard for them to go all out.

Hope no one gets injured. Arsenal already lost 4 players in 2 games.

I'm hoping the good mood inside the team carries us to a narrow victory.

With Mason Mount scoring our first goal.

I know it's been 3 months but I would go with the team that smashed Everton 4-0

           Kepa

Azpi  Rudi. Zouma Alonso

         Gilmour. Barkley

                 Mount

William  Giroud Pedro

    Subs to come on

Pulisic ,Abraham ,loftus cheek ,kante, Anjorin..

      It will be a travesty if William and Pedro abandon us and not sign  a 2 month contract when we need them the most . Especially Willian

Feels surreal to have the football back.

Don't know what to expect, but cautiously optimistic we'll win this.

Neither will...Pedro has agreed a pre contact with Roma and Willian will be going to Manure or The Spuds...

Finally back after 3 months no idea what to expect from the players fitness wise/sharpness but excited and confident.

Come on Chelsea.

Got this Feeling that we will win this Game.
Come on Chelsea

Hope young Gilmour starts

 

Ruben starts but otherwise kind of a unsurprising lineup.

Disappointed to see Gilmour on the bench but RLC starting is certainly exciting!

first 11

I understand the decision of fielding an experienced side. Azpi over Reece, Giroud over Tammy, Kante over Gilmour and so on.

Loftus Cheek Starts!!! 

Pretty conservative a selection from Frank...maybe gentle reintroduction for Tammy and Pulisic...happy to use Willian and Pedro till their contracts run dry...
