I’m not too fond of their streams either, quality is normally awful. In this instance however, I’m just glad it seems I get to watch it - if the streams load, that is!

The quality of that service needs to get better but I have always ended up watching the entire game through there. I just buy it, connect my laptop and watch from the big screen or I view it via Xbox/edge browser on big screen. Casting doesn't really work with it very reliably.

Thanks for the tip, I’ll try out watching through the browser on either the Tv or the PS5. I always get in trouble when I try casting from my phone or my tablet 

Anyone know why Adarabioyo isn't in the squad for this one ? Is he injured or something ?

He is. 
 

There was an admin error in that his name wasn’t copied from submitted list to published list.

 

Oh and before anyone berates the owners it was UEFAs mistake

He prefers Tosin. And with a surname like that I would too. Doesn't really bend in the mouth of an English speaking person anyway 😅

Admin error why he wasn't included. He is now. 

Carney in the squad.

Who is he? Is he a goal keeper by chance? Is he on loan? Is he the next Messi? Is he joining us from his parent club in 2 years time? Is  his Amortization value viable? How are his stats xyz/ go/pie chart/ msc@/?2’assist/oxy/ ? What is his residual value/ loss. Don’t just ask a simple football question.

I just thought, arent we really light in the two deeper cm roles? Caicedo, Lavia, Enzo aaaaand… who else, now that Lesley and Santos are gone on loan? Maybe Carney can be used as a rotational player here, although he’s better in the attacking 8/10 just like half of our squad

He goes in the attacking 8 though, doesn’t he? That was his role at Leicester and what we saw in pre-season

Anyone have a stream for this other than the club's?

Yeah, I am not sure where he should play or where he does play. He goes on the bench most of the time if you ask me.

I'd imagine Renato Veiga has been bought with his versatility in mind for midfield as well as left back and centre back. Career to date he's actually been more of a DM than LB or CB ...

Yeah, I guess. Still, if say Lavia gets another bad injury I’d argue we’d struggle as Veiga can’t fully cover two positions at once - even if he’s technically able to. Maybe I’m just scarred from last season, but again we look mightily unbalanced with too much cover in attacking midfield and too little in the defensive part. Hopefully there’s a break clause in the loans for Santos and Ugochukwu should we need it

I have just realised the game is on tomorrow. Thursday.

Forgot we have turned into Tottenham.

They've just released the B list and Kiano Dyer is on it, so he's another option for midfield ....

Match Day!
 

Come on Chelsea!!

So list A (22 players) is for the play offs then they can add list B (4 more players) for the grp stages?

So 26 in total for this comp?

Nice 👍...easier and cheaper to just pay 4,99 than subscribe to another service and or find the game in another way. I know the prices for these are a laughing stock but for me it is just so simple to buy. Buy one less pint in a bar and you have both games to watch at home.

Definitely one thing I hope our American owners can change. American sports generate huge media revenue but are easily accessible, whereas football is increasingly sold off to the highest bidder with no care for quality.

Easier to stream the game lol save a fiver

Yep, I've moaned about this a million times. We are the only country that can't watch every match of the PL or even every match involving an English team. Stupid TV rights.

Imagine anywhere around the world (I spent over 5 yrs in the middle east) I can watch every chelsea match with one subscription. Its just wrong you can't get that coverage where the teams are actually based!
