Tonight's 4 defenders have more career Chelsea goals then the 4 attackers ... LOL

crikey we are still on page 2 of match thread within an hour of kick off

Line up out and the thread is waiting to make page 2 (may well do with this post)

That's how little we care about this competition, and our enthusiasm for BlueCo the Chels.

And yet Caicedo and Enzo cannot get a rest...

Except they aren’t sick anymore so the bench is the place for them.

If Nkunku isnt sick WHY isnt he playing 10?

He is not physically sick, just sick of being here.

This far into the season & KDH is still getting minutes.

He’s gone in the summer, his value won’t be improved and he’s no better than any of the academy lads. Ridiculous.

Probably about the right line up I think. The attack doesn’t feel me with confidence though

Keeper does not matter they are both cr@p

defence is who I wanted picked.

Neither Enzo nor Caicedo should be in the squad. Wanted to see James plus one of dyer or Rak-Sakyi.

Front 3 fine with.

Striker wanted Mheuka.

Nothing game, nothing competition. Win it and we will hear, rightly, "well done you matched West Ham". Don't win it and we get mocked but who cares, state of our club is more embarrassing.

Relax people, I had a funeral today, which traditionally means a win.

So 1-1 with our sphincters getting a good workout.

Joe cole telling chelsea fans they need to be patient, Marecas tactics are good!!

Probably Badi, who inverts with Trev lcb, tosin middle and Josh rcb.

Lets smash 'em.

Come ON Chelsea give us a much needed 2-0 and 3-1 overall !!

Um, shouldn't that be 4-1 ?

Could well be. Maybe Trev inverts from RB

Just working through the necessary MarescaBall pre-match requirements;

Numerous amphetamines, match sticks to keep the eye lids open, "I'm So Excited" by The Pointer Sisters blaring out, wet fish to slap myself around the face, yep. All ready to go. Zzzzzzzzzzz!

That'd be 4-1 though, which would be nice 😏

Commentator talking absolute sh*te already

"They do create chances"

How many genuine goalscoring chances do we create? Ones that actually test the keeper and aren't limp shots? These people don't watch us, they just look at sheets of paper.

Well it looks more like a 3-2-4-1 to me with Josh and Caicedo in DM.

Sancho really needs to start showing more, hasn’t done anything for ages

Great to see Badiashille hasn’t improved at all.
