True Blue Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 We usually bounce back after a defeat or a bad result. Still fully expect us to concede 1-3 Chelsea. I like the new televised thread option, with some stats behind it very refreshing.
Dave Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 I can see a reaction in this game after last night. 3-1 to Chelsea.
Administrator Stan Posted February 1, 2018 Author Administrator Posted February 1, 2018 Chelsea to win and 2-1 I reckon

Is Christensen out ?! Need to know for Fantasy League! That's a lot of changes to make for one game anyway. Suspect it's needed as a message after the Bournemouth loss.

That's a lot of changes to make for one game anyway. Suspect it's needed as a message after the Bournemouth loss. Just what I would do in this current situation. Kante and Azpilicueta look fucking knackered, and in my opinion need a rest. Christensen is out with an injury. Fabregas is just a moaning twat that I hope isn't a starter ever again. Impact player at best. 3 at the back is dead as we don't have the players to utilise it properly, especially when other teams know how to expose it. Ampadu, Sterling, and Odoi actually look like they give a fuck too when they play.
Cicero Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 Rumors that Giroud won't be available as well. Wonderful. A club with our financial ability, and we are going two consecutive games without a fucking striker. But yeah it's the manager, sorry head coach, that's the problem according to Roman.
Guest Cannabis Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 Looking good that OP @Stan fair play, finally bringing some use to the forum after spending the past 10 months fannying around. As for the game I think it's a likely Chelsea win, anything more than they'll be in a mini crisis. The 3-0 defeat to Bournemouth midweek was horrendous and Conte isn't the kind of man to let it happen again (unless he's past caring). I've got a feeling that Chelsea could make a point and turn up a similar result to their last game, just the right way around. 3-0 Chelsea.
Dave Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 Wayne Rooney's a pundit this evening. Fucking hell.
Cicero Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 No idea how this will go. I'd say Watford know how to exploit us and did it brilliantly at the Bridge in October. If this is two games without a striker then best we can hope for is a draw. Can't believe I'm saying this but I hope Willian is fit enough to start this one as we need him. Excited for more 'hoof to Hazard' football.
Guest Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 Give me an update on Carrillo, Chelsea fans. Doubt he'll start but if he does get game time, update me...

Doubt he'll start but if he does get game time, update me... message to everyone - no one else provide updates for Blue unless you're a Chelsea fan!
Cicero Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 Chelsea team: Courtois; Azpilicueta, David Luiz, Cahill (c); Moses, Bakayoko, Kante, Zappacosta; Willian, Hazard, Pedro. Chelsea subs: Caballero, Rudiger, Emerson, Drinkwater, Fabregas, Hudson-Odoi, Giroud. False 9 Cahill in for Rudiger Bakayoko yet again starts . So many reasons to get excited
True Blue Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 I know i usually praise Baka, but he was as bad as all the rest in the last game. Overall improved in the past few and i hate the three winger attack. Hope Giroud gets some minutes.

Cicero Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 Watford should be 0-2 already 10 minutes in. I'm not even joking. Hoooooooof to Hazard!
Administrator Stan Posted February 5, 2018 Author Administrator Posted February 5, 2018 what the hell was that from Deeney?! More to the point, what kind of marking was that from Chelsea?
Cicero Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 Please chuck Bakayoko with the reserves and only call him up in the big games. The man would be perfect for Arsenal.
Administrator Stan Posted February 5, 2018 Author Administrator Posted February 5, 2018 What a chance for Watford this is to get 3 points.
Inverted Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 Chelsea have just imploded here. Absolutely shambolic.
Cicero Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 Any Chelsea fan complaining about the ref tonight should have their head checked. Awful management mixed in with lackluster performances. Even without the sending off or penalty, we were never winning this game.
