Why would you play Badiashille in a Final when he's had no recent game time?

Just bizarre.

James and Colwill on the bench? Taking the f**king piss.

The piss taking bit is plastering Jackson's mug all over the team sheet ...

I paid the club to do it just to wind up @nonotnowjim

"Shop window" ?

Hope he puts in a man of the match performance !

Two goalkeepers on the bench klaxon

Big Trev starts!

Bring on Reece before the end though, don't want Fernández potentially lifting a trophy as Chelsea captain.

I did not expect to see Badiashile, nor do I actually want to see him.

Poor Reece James ... official club captain and the manager just won't pick him for our key games ... must be owner instructions surely ?

Only an idiot would pick Gusto ahead of James ...

What has badders done to be in this game.

Colwell and James should be playing simple as that. To tricky for his own good.

2 keepers on the bench again omg this guy

Badiashile? WTF

Come on Chelsea!

It's BlueCo's preferred outcome to see their poster boy lift their first trophy. Eghbali in particular will absolutely cream his pants if that happens.

Well I expected TG & KDH and got Gusto & Baddy starting instead. This coach can’t help it can he ?

If we hoist the 🏆 later today, fair enough resting them for the CWC is forgivable !

Less rotation than I expected, given what he said prior to Forest.

Before United trev was our established partner for Levi, we always knew Jorgensen would play so is just the regular conference league duo of gusto and Badiashile in.

Funny how we put colwill and James forward at the presser and neither starts, though Reece gave it away he would not be.

He was always going to rotate.

At least the back line will have Cucurella be the LCB to lock down Anthony. Can't believe I have to say that.

That's the one in this lineup that terrifies me. 😳

Disgusting line up.

Not a look in for the lads that got us here. Particularly gutted for Josh, George, Guiu, KDH and dare I say Nkunku.

Absolutely livid that donkey brain c**t face is back in the XI.

Buckle up boys and girls, Badiashile in the starting line up.

Unless it is cucu who inverts and badi is the lcb

Only Gusto's 4th start/appearance in this competition. It's Josh that has been playing more (and isn't tonight)

Colwill is presumably still hungover so his omission we can forgive, and an out-of-position Gusto is obviously preferable to our captain.

Maresca saw @Sexyfootball post about how Spanish teams always win euro finals since 2002 and thought "well may as well give myself an excuse..."

Colwill not starting in unforgivable.

Although i don't agree with it i can only assume Gusto is starting so he can bomb on and Cucurella stays in defence to lock Antony off. Clearly their most dangerous player tonight.

Preferable for Real Betis at least. A back line of two leaders when they expect 4, a nervous keeper and immature striker.

Just for daddy Manuel

Looking forward to the game for the simple reason it would be a real landmark to win every European Trophy going but not confident with this team selection.
