Have to get out of work early to see this today, come on Chelsea!

Al Hilal boss Leonardo Jardim:

"I'd like to give a warning to FIFA because I find it unfair some teams have to play four matches in eight days and other teams, the best, have to play two matches with their teams rested."

Wow, crazy to think Jardim is managing Al Hilal..I mean he helped creating a god-like Monaco side not THAT long ago.

Still annoyed we lost to Corinthians in the CWC final in 2012.

Hope we can complete the trophy haul and win it this time starting with victory against Al-Hilal.

Match day.....COME ON YOU BLUES !

Automated offside technology so Werner, if selected will be in trouble. I’d still pick him in front of cho   In fact I like lukaku Werner and havertz as the front 3 especially with mount doubtful.

Luckily the boss has to go quote a few jobs so I’m finishing early today 

 

Wigan Athletic’s Kai Naismith on Reece James:

“It got to the stage where after two, three months of the season, no-one would go near him in training. If he got the ball, he was always given five yards of space. No one would try to tackle him.”

“It was like he was playing against kids and we had a lot of good players. But many would refuse to go near him.”

Well I will be working so looking forward to the report on here of the match action. Please keep it nice and derailed guys and gals, especially for Loz 😉

E4 is a proper weird channel to have it on. Catch up on some Friends, Simpsons and next up is a Chelsea semi final

Lukaku moves about as fast as Homer of late so nothing odd about it lol.

This is what I think we will go with

 

                              Kepa

     Azpilicueta Silva Rudiger Alonso

     Ziyech    Kanté  Jorginho     CHO

                    Lukaku    Havertz

He did it perfectly. Looks like those mistakes are a thing of the past...

Rested? Our schedule has been immensely taxing. The only break our players got was just a week ago after months of playing every 3-4 days

Hearing its Kepa, Christensen, Rudi, Silva at the back. Alonso and Azpil wb and Kante and Kova in midfield. Mount, Lukaku and Ziyech up top

Edit could be a mistake Jorgh for Kante. Looks like 3421 which I think is probably the best shout

If it is Lukaku he had bloody well turn up or he and Tuchel if its him picking him can go and get lost.

I will endeavour, as always, to derail the thread as much as possible. I’ll try and go a bit extra just for you.

I don’t know - he just changed the title of someone else thread rather than start his own. He’s getting a bit lazy if you ask me…

Ah AC is useless now with his head in his next club imo. Glad Kai starts.

I strenuously disagree with that statement. 

Want to see some quality from Havertz today, against a team full of donkeys he should thrive 

@Argo will be delighted with the forward  (mind you, I'm not a happy chappy either )

Maybe he has been watching too much of Lukaku then...
