Well maybe they will make it an entertaining game. Not seen one of those from Chelsea in months.

Based on who is available I expect Potter lines up with:

 

Kepa.

 

James

Silva

Koulibaly 

Cucurella

 

Kovacic 

Enzo

 

Mount

Felix

Mudryk

 

Havertz

Dortmound doesn't defend well and No Haland this year, think we have a chance for this.  We may lose the first game, I reckon we will edge the tie via a goal.

West Ham don't defend well either.

Dortmund will attack. Our counterattacking players have the pace and ability on paper to really make this entertaining. We will miss badiashile. 

The bell will toll loudly if we lose this I think. 

If we can't turn up in a game like this, we never will. This is all we've got going for us at the moment and it's the Champions League, the time to turn up.

Even if we do beat Dortmund we are not winning the CL unless all other PL sides are knocked our. As we have shown under Potter of late, we dont win games against English sides very often.

Hopefully they will rest some of their players and save them for a tough game!

Dortmund is in shouting distance in terms of Bundesliga (3 points off pace). They have lost 6 games already in the liga and the league itself is not as tough as Premier League. 

I think we should be the favourites to go through here and I think it should show on the pitch as well. It did against AC Milan. 

The players will be up for it. This is our only "final" of the season as Prem is what it is. Our quality beats their quality on paper anyway. 

Kepa

James Silva Koulibaly Chilwell

The other fighter however fights in the heavyweights....

Do we play City if we get through?

Let's have it right....I'm Potter in 100%. I'm backing him and will give him until Xmas but.....if we go out to Dortmund, get out. This is a cup and we are a cup team.

I badly want to win this trophy. I fully believe we have the squad and are capable of winning it. We are on paper superior to Dortmund and the only thing stopping us is a dodgy ref or an incompetent manager.

Graham Potter are you incompetent?

Why would you flip flop your opinion based on Dortmund? Is not like we have drawn Dinamo Zargreb or Celtic, we have draw a good side and sometimes that means you lose and fet knocked out. This is not some gimme draw.

No they are not Zagreb but we should be beating the likes of Dortmund.

We should be beating sides Fulham, West Ham, Forrest, Brentford etc. As well, and Dodtmund are a better side than the lot of them imo.

We should but the CL is just different. Unlike the league where we know it's over for the big prize, the CL is a realistic opportunity. Over 2 legs I believe we will and should knock out Dortmund.

Well the games we have had under Potter have been different in the CL compared to most league games so we will see.

A lot may depend on how Kante is when he comes back.
