Should be a comfortable win today. Streak of losing or drawing with this team should hopefully end today. We had enough time to prepare and should be fresh to get them outplayed.

Well that confirm we ain't winning now lol.

Back. Getting my parents to and from a restaurant is an operation akin to the D-Day landings. We're all shattered. Two happy oldies though. Here's the birthday boy.

 

Cheers Val!

No one fancies Pulisic at LWB then? 😉

Left back at Cobham is his only position in this squad.

Chelsea (3-4-3) Mendy; Azpilicueta (c), Thiago Silva, Koulibaly; James, Kante, Jorginho, Chilwell; Mount, Havertz, Sterling

Subs Kepa, Cucurella, Chalobah, Gallagher, Kovacic, Loftus-Cheek, Pulisic, Ziyech, Broja

Chilwell's back!

That’s a very strong line up 

Expected starting XI, Good options on the bench. Werner must be getting close to leaving.

Happy birthday, pops! 

Just realized that along with Alonso, there is no Werner in the team at all. Gotta think that’s a pretty big hint he’s on his way back to Deutschland 

Is CHO injured again?

CB average age is 34.......shows how desperately we need a young CB.

Oops.. It's up already... Good looking line up 🙂

Happy with that line up

Yeah line up looks strong but would prefer Chalobah start over Azpillicueta

Not worth a mention given his overall contribution during the pre-season.  I'd throw him in the pot for Fofana together with Ziyech..

Maybe, now that we have the use of 5 subs..

Welcome back Chilie.

I'd say if everyone ups their level this season, that's a very good 20-man lineup

If everyone ups their level every line up is good.

Do think we still have a massive lack of goals and game changers from the bench

Teams are only allowed 11 on the pitch, mate 🙃😉

Sky sports presented the lineup as Silva RCB and Azpi LCB 🤣🤣
