Chelsea at home

They can afford to play their reserves against Norwich and Newcastle could they not? They are also 2-0 up against Lille so an early goal and they then withdraw 5 players at HT

5 points above 5th place, I don't think they can take the foot of the accelerator just yet.

An early goal to Lille and it's game on. They will certainly start their first XI in that game

Im sure that was the game we thought David Luiz was playing and turns out it was a young Nathan Ake? From memory, one of the best performances from a player I have ever seen at the Riverside, outstanding that night.

Yeah I know. That's why I said 2nd league cup final.
Just thought it was a previous Chelsea match worth mentioning.
It wasn't a criticism of your original list.
 
Anyone go to Stamford Bridge mid 90s I think?
We got thumped 5-0.The worst thing was that Suggs AKA Madness, did the half time lottery draw.
He absolutely took the pee out of the Boro away supporters, never forgave him for that.😞
Funny how football can make you bitter!😬
 
Before our first game at the Riverside, my then brother in law mixed with some unsavoury sorts around the Chelsea/ Pimlico/ Victoria district. They had a plan to cause untold damage to the new stadium.

He told me, I told the authorities. Nothing happened thankfully. Biggest bunch of pr@@s out.

Didn't they write Chelsea on the back of the Holgate end back in the 70s?
All a bit.... inadequate and pathetic when you reflect.

If you just have a quick peek at the bench Chelsea had at Turf Moor I do think arguing that they may have a harder run up to the game is a bit moot.

Their bench

Werner
Ziyech
Lukaku
Christensen
Loftus Cheek

They can start any one of those in the their previous 3 games and not be weakened.

not in personnel agreed, but it's about fluidity as a team. I'm sure whatever, it will be a very very strong side
