does it matter making the top 4 now ? explains why Arse and Spuds weren't really making an effort this season the scheming c$$$ts. 

I want Chelsea to win today for pride and for the 45 years of personal history I have going to games, not nice to see fans outside the Bridge on matchday protesting like Pikeys or United  scumbags but I do get it

I love it personally. It really shows the passion for the club. I would have been disappointed if it is was any different.

By having lewis dunk and co murder him tonight?

I guess that is why we have Big Zouma, Rudiger , Alonso and to some extent soft ass Christensen in the line up

Can we have a rule, on this thread when the match has started we dont mention the ESL until after the full time whistle...if you feel the need to mention it pop over to the other thread specifically for it and come back once rent is over...would be nice to escape it for a couple of hours and get back to old chelsea chat

i take this back....f**king mention away

We can mention the European Sock League though, right?

Fighting for this league or die trying (or perhaps grumble into a tub of ice cream instead)!

Exactly my first thought. We are truly f**ked if we concede several corners tonight. Clearly club orders as per. 

Oh I know with a chance to go third too. Just makes it even more ridiculous I get the cup but not this team or this game.

Damn near forgot about the match tonight

Chelsea FC preparing docs to quit ESL after fans and players protest,  Roman didn't go into football to turn a big profit  HOORAY !

Ok this match has become important again. White socks for us, black for the officials and I’m guessing some sort of high-vis nightmare for Brighton. 

Petr Cech! 

Pushed back to 8.15pm

Game postponed by 15 mins

Pretty weird line-up, it will be interesting to see how Mount does in the Kovacic role, with Rudiger Christensen  Zouma and Kepa at the back we can expect a mistake that will cost us a goal but i must admit under Tuchel i am usually left impressed with our defence.

Strong fans = strong club. Pride of London.

Massive game again now.

Win would be huge!

Offensively we should be strong. Alonso, James, Mount, Havertz, Ziyech and Pulisic can get at them.

Defensively though....

To the players. The fans stepped up for you and for our club. Now you need to do the same again, please.

I’ve found a solution to my problem...

Can you imagine what the atmosphere would be like tonight if fans were allowed in?

Some fantastic tinkering there from Tommy T - Mount/James not starting against West Ham?

Even with Kepa on goal and no Gilmour on the starting eleven, COME ON CHELSEA!! 

my apologies @Malta Blue
