Chelsea's squad is very thin, if they end up with a couple of key injuries this season they'll struggle to keep pace at the top unless they bring in some more.

No shocks there... I don't think we will be bringing anyone else in either so will have to run with what we have which just wont be enough to fight on all fronts.

So far there's a lack of football coming from the Chelsea players. But they've maintained it at 0-0 and that's the important part. 

Lucky we are only playing Arsenal... anyone decent and we would be at least a couple of goals down by now..

There most certainly will be more players coming in. 

Need to start moving the ball faster. Lack of urgency throughout the team. 

Lol at that Willian "dive"

To do it without Koscielny, Mustafi, Ramsey, Ozil or Sanchez makes it a surprise win. Nice to start off the season as English Super Cup champions. :D

Not a fan of this new format. Both Cech and Courtois can't save penalties so knew the losing team would have players hitting them off target. Caballero should have went on. 

Poor preseason overall and doesn't give much confidence going into Burnley next week. Shows the lack of confidence in the team when Courtois is taking the 2nd penalty. But our players are known for picking their heads up and bouncing back, just like last season. More afraid of our lack of depth, which is now becoming increasingly annoying given the season starts next week. 

Worst case scenario we assemble the most expensive squad in history, finish 6th in the league and win a couple of trophies and call it a success.

you forgot to add all the injuries and the cluster fuck schedule. chelsea had it easy last season, this year is the true test for conte and so far, he has only shown to be Arsene's lil bitch

Because you were the only team in the league to have injuries….

Cluster fuck schedule xD United have the most expensive team in history and spent 200 million that summer, you had enough options and depth so that is a pathetic excuse. You're players were not performing under Mourinho's dull tactics. With the inclusion of Lukaku, you might actually improve. League cup and a 5th place finish. 

Mind you, we had a poor pre-season last year as well. 9_9

Seems to be a lot of bellyaching over a glorified friendly. I was working all day, so unfortunately I didn't see the match.

People have 2015/16 season on their minds.

Lampard was spot on. Pressure is on our board, not Conte. 

But you know how it works mate...  Only one person gets the sack when things don't work out properly.  The same way you can't sack a bunch of players for not giving their all, the board won't sack themselves either and I would suspect the owner has more faith in them as a new coach is easy to sign he would think.

  • The title was changed to Saturday 6th August - Community Shield - Arsenal p1-1 Chelsea

Fantastic what we've done since Conte took over. We made sure we'd face Arsenal in the FA Cup final and we let them win it. Now we let them win another meaningless trophy. And as a result of all of that Wenger will stay at Arsenal even longer and they may never improve.

Conte is such a brilliant man, he's playing 9D-chess. Genius!

Average game from both teams, we would probably win if Pedro stayed on the pitch. Reckless tackle but could have walked with a yellow. Lost 6 Community Shields in a row, shame only Teso the Retardos counts it as silverware. The Africans having a field day with Morata missing the penalty nothing new. From all the players in the team we let Cahill, Courtois and Morata to have them. Courtois took one penalty against Barcelona in pre season and all the sudden he should take them all the time. Probably the worst team ever on penalties expect much better next saturday.

mate most of the africans I have seen on facebook are actually chelsea fans, I always thought it had to do with Drogba playing for you.
