My biggest fear on this game was Traore running at Alonso. There’s not a hope in hell Alonso could match him for strength and pace. 
 

Seeing Traore on the bench is absolutely wonderful. 

Callum needs to produce today.

We will be in good form & smash Wolves 4/0 today

Big call by lamps dropping kepa. Pretty much shows that he has lost confidence in him ( like a lot of fans).
 
we must not lost this game whatever happens. I hope we give it our all! 

I think it is more to the team. I feel all were let down by the fact Kepa didn't catch anything even if he didn't have a chance in many of them. Caballero in goal is more of a psychological thing after that Liverpool game. Caballero is a decent stopper.

Would've preffered CHO over Mount.

Everyone needs to step up today including CHO if he gets the opportunity.

Mount will run his socks off all over the park..CHO doesn't offer that...Mount on his day is the far better all round player IMO.

Out of 9 different possible outcomes Chelsea finish outside the top 4 twice. That's promising.

CHO is a better attacking threat, something we need here. 

Kepa has hopefully played his last game here.

I'm ready, wearing a Chelsea hoodie and I drank coffee and tea from Chelsea mugs all day.

Timo Werner arrived to watch the game now.

If we don't make top 4 today, then I am blaming it on the West Ham game. I never understood why we were so gung ho at 2-2, which ended up with them scoring a late winner on the counter. A draw would have been enough and we would have guaranteed a top 4 finish had results ended up playing out the same way after that game.

You can't feel secure as a defender after your GK had that kind of performance in the last match. That Kepa Kepa Kepa moment and then seeing him with a Vietnam flashback look in his eyes doesn't inspire confidence.

This made me laugh a lot, thank you! It’s calming the nerves

Problem I have with that thinking is Wolves tend to sit back & hit you on the counter in big games. Against a Mourinho Spurs they had 35% possession, 37% possession against Utd. What you need in the final 3rd are players that are decisive as we will see a lot of the ball. Sorry but Mount isn’t that player. Let him run his socks off in the middle of the park, if he has to play.

Most of our creativity today is dependent on Pulisic, pray he doesn’t have an off day. Sorry but after that performance against Liverpool which isn’t his fault (he isn’t a winger), you don’t reward him with a start and bench CHO who came off the bench & performed well. And is Lamps shifting Pulisic to his weaker right to accommodate Mount? 

I’m so nervous

Nice to see if players are nervous. I think they will be.

Get right intake them Chelsea.

Translated for those of you South of Hadrians Wall.

Play up Chelsea?

At least we can throw him on second half if need be to run at tired legs and create something.

That said, Wolves have Traore to do exactly the same thing but faster!!

Probably the only time in my life that I am hoping for United to be 4 up inside 20 minutes ... "go Greenwood, Martial, Rashford, Fernandes, Pogba" etc etc   ?
