That should be inspiring the team especially given todays result and Leeds at the weekend.

 

We have the quality the beat them on our day and have a decent record there.

 

I just can't see Brendan changing a thing though. Hope I'm wrong!

[funkyrobot]

5-0. Chilwell and Sterling guaranteed to score. 

[Costello]

Fofana to start and score past Ward for the winning og

[don_danbury]

glad rudiger has left. he's a tw@t and he always seems to score 

[Sunbury Fox]

Have zero hope for this fixture. Most we can expect is to get out of it with a respectable loss by a goal or 2. Amazing how things have gone so wrong so quickly.

Chelsea are presently is that…” Not sure of themselves” The wind blows different ways for them…

We turn up as the “obliging”  city,then we kick start their season,

or we still have an ounce of our old fearless city,we can come away with something…To be fair,we have always given them a run for their money,

 

Then Rüdiger….steps in,usually with his press & our poor covering.

He ain’t there any longer,so lets see who their new shining hero is,

Or have we Maddison/Vardy/Barnes who can now start to come to 

“The goal-scoring”. Party & make that difference to the result,and not

just consolation goals…

Even with all the negatives being pushed around,I still believe we have the players

to make a good season….Its a question if they want to feel sorry for themselves,

or do they have the drive to “want” to make ‘their season’..!!

Fofana,needs to pull himself together,and prove his high potential-reputation,

is warranted… His dimeaner can carry or pull down the team….!

Since the reverse psychology isn't working (again) - time for some positivity!

 

We'll smash them!  

[cshaw246]

How annoying is it that Chelsea seem to be one of a handful of teams in England that don't have a specific away pub. Where is everybody going for pre-match pints?

[daddylonglegs]

Kelechi to bag 2 or 3 tonight before being started in this one. 

 

Won't score, relegated to the bench for the rest of the season. Banker

[ARM1968]

We’ll just get battered, no need to analyse it. We all know it. Anything less than a whimpering defeat will surprise us all.

Fofana to score injury time winner for Chelsea with wild celebrations nailed on.

Pass the crack pipe, you’ve had it too long again. 

[Matt]

It’s gonna be tough.

 

I mean it’s unfair that we’ve had to play tonight and Chelsea havn't.

 

We saw last season we struggled with weekend, midweek, weekend, midweek.

 

Not to mention that lads having a later night than ideal having to take penalties, an extra drain on mentality.

[Tommy Fresh]

Rodgers to release some negative Chilwell gossip prior to the match to divert any grief from the away end 

[Stevosevic]

Good luck to anyone going.

                    Ward / Iverson

Castagne.       Evans.       Soyuncu.     justin

                             N’Didi

Praet.                K D-H.                      Barnes

                            Maddison

                             Vardy

[Chelmofox]

Really can’t cope with the thought of this. For the first time in ages I’m out and will check the scores at 5ish

Rodgers gameplan after studying Leeds earlier

It really is like I’m watching a game at the King Power

Inaccurate.

 

They’re are far too advanced up the field.

 

The passing is about right but it needs to be more infront of our own 18 yard box.

 

Brendan would be apoplectic playing as advanced as the half way line!

[foxsake]

Hopefully we show some great character and give the possession stans something to cheer about.

[ARM1968]

I hear low blocks are impossible to play against for a Premier League side. Just a thought. Then maybe hit them on the break?  Waddya think B-Rodge?

Comfortable victory for Chelsea, we won’t lay a glove on them, we’re so scared and fragile mentally there’s no way we give these willy pullers a game

...they are probably just as apprehensive as we are!!!

It is not as if they have started their season well and Tuchel is struggling to make their team work. We could turn them over, they will be a bit fragile and an early goal could turn their crowd very quickly.
