a bit of good fortune there...Willian does not have to pull up because Gary was hurt. This is professional sport not a Sunday afternoon friendly

Wait why aren't they celebrating?

Probably because of how the goal played out.

Cahill seems to have pulled his hamstring

Shame...

Cahill's hammy is probably crocked, he's presumably still loved by his former teammates.

Agent Gary! 

Just kidding, hope he's okay though. Get in Giroud!!

4 mins in and that kit is terrible 

Kit pattern reminds me of one of those aluminium flooring tread plates .... ?

damn hope Gary is okay and its only a pull and not a tear... 

Poor Gary ?

Willian Should Of Hit That With His Left

Willian should have hit that on the volley.

Oh Kurt

Nice goal sorry Gary

AHHHH cmon zouma !!

You can't argue with it though, no way should anyone stop there in live play, otherwise every defender in the world would pull that trick as soon as they're in danger. No complaints there, shame it was Gary though, he's an absolute warrior, so you can tell he's hurt if he of all people stop.

Yes! Now I know what it reminds me of, thank you!

Zouma has to score there. 

Free header .. Kurt really should have scored there ...

Oh Kurt

our CBs really struggle with the ability to head the ball on target on set pieces

Zouma looks so threatening from set pieces, he attacked a couple against Watford and shouldve hit the target there against Palace.

And ...Kurt should have buried that 

Nearly a second.

Odd start to the game, this is where the players will be glad there's no crowd because the boo's would be deafening now. 

Oooh slick Mason!

Once a Chels always a Chels. Gary helping to make sure we win it all.

 

Zouma should score that. Gary would.

Unfortunate for Gary

Unlucky Cahill, a club legend!

Also a bit late here, but very happy with the team sheet! Zouma-Christensen pairing unchanged, Willian, Pulisic and Giroud front 3 are the strongest we currently have and ballsy from Lampard starting Gilmour. If he can make it through this game and perform well, I have real high hopes for him.

A shame about Jorginho though, does seem as if hes more or less gone at this point. But at least we'll get good money so.
