We’re going to be in our dazzling pink socks tonight aren’t we, would look good in tandem with those lovely blue socks UEFA Referee’s have. 
 

I hope Porto’s socks are too small, dirty and full of holes. 

The papers have had some interesting points about the mental build up. the Portuguese supposedly told that Chelsea cheered when they heard we had drawn them.

They are also being told about how much more expensive our squad is than theirs.

TT is trying to counter this.

Then we have the fall out between Rudiger and Kepa.

I think we will win though it will be close, would be nice to see Emerson come on later and score with his first touch again.

Scoring again with his first touch? No pressure Emerson!

Tuchel to change the formation completely and we annihilate Porto 6 - 1.

Mendy

James Silva Christensen Chilwell

Gilmour

Mount Havertz

Odoi Giroud Werner

 

I really don't care who plays as long as they give it their 100%. It's going to be tight but a Chelsea win (0-1).

I'd rather see Werner score with his first touch he needs it more.

Unfortunately his first touch often means his second touch is a tackle.

Rather kill this tie off in the first game.  I think we'll get a big bounce having embarrassed the entire club on the weekend.  Depends if Porto sit deep, although I doubt it, but I'm hoping to see this game done and dusted 3-0.

That's all you could ever ask.

If we were playing West Brom I’d advocate flip flops with no socks, as it’s Porto I’d say sandals with white socks.

Thank goodness we are not playing West Brom again.

Got a feeling Tuchel goes with this false 9 thing tonight, play Havertz there.

Porto will be in their blue & white home kit so we’ll be in our Crystal Palace Ladies third kit.

In that case can the Chelsea women play Porto for us instead?

Dont worry, we are not playing WBA...lol

No sign of the Chelsea teamsheet yet, which is a bit surprising on a Champions League night where we usually get the teams 90 minutes before kick-off. Perhaps the Blues have been forced into a late alteration?
