Yes they should move it somewhere safe like Ukraine!

Nah too dodgy there, Croydon isn’t that far away from it!

That's not dangerous for Saudi but for the other guys...

Ukraine is lovely this time of year

Let's just get this one in the bag, then we can say we've done it.  Had we already won it in 2012, I would say I'd be more up for winning the league cup.

Will you change you name to Eight (& One) Times?

Typical...

UAE is usually very safe. I am supposed to be heading out there in a few days for a week or 2 but looks like I'm staying behind now. So yes, I'm with moving the match to West London pls. 

The semi will be shown live in the UK on Wed 9/2 on E4 starting at 4.00pm

First game of the competition kicks off today.

16:30 Al Jazira (Hosts Champions) vs Pirae (Oceania).

Something to have on in the background if you're working from home.

I’m walking home right now but knowing this massive game kicks off in half an hour is enough to make me break into a sprint!

A couple of Chelsea fans I know from my local pub are going out next week. Will be interesting to know what they think of the tournament. Hopefully they will see us lift the trophy and make it the full set.

I’ve done how made it home and had a shower in time for kick off but I can’t find it anywhere! Oh well - Tipping Point it is!

Winners of AL Jazira vs Pirae (currently at 2-0) then play AL-Hilal. The winner of that faces us in the semi.

The other game has Al Ahly vs Monterrey. Winner faces Palmerias. 

We definitely got the better side of the draw. Provided we don't mess it up the final won't be a cake walk though, 3 decent sides in the heat is an advantage for any of the 3.

Al-Jazira vs Al-Hilal it is, winner faces us.

Looks like Tuchel won't be travelling with the squad due to covid

Maybe Lukaku can put on a show for them so that one of those sides can buy him.

Not confident for our chances to win this without TT to fix what inevitably breaks during the games.

Is it wrong to hope that someone plants some coke in Lukaku's hand luggage ?

Assuming they are available for the first game, and recognizing it does not matter who plays up front as they are all $h*t:

 

Kepa 

 

Dave

Chalobah

Rudiger

Alonso

 

Kante

Saul

 

Ziyech

Havertz

Pulisic

 

Werner

Al Ahly overcome monterrey to face Palmeries in the other semi.

Starting to lose a bit of confidence now.
