Lots of respect for their manager Sarri , he is pals with Pep and always pays us lots of respect and plays football the right way .

Expecting us to be in 2nd by the time we kick off which should provide all the motivation required. Lot of respect for Chelsea and their manager - he will have them playing football and give us a game but we will terrorise Luiz and their shaky defence

Berliner Kindl is the way to go mate. Great lager!
And don't forget to have some Döner Kebab. Best in Europe.

I watched them against Fulham last weekend and they were very sloppy in possession. They repeatedly gave the ball away in midfield but got away with it. Hopefully if they do the same against us we'll punish them.
Balotelli......that's a brilliant finish.

Cannot shake my bad feeling about this one.
Tracking back is overrated.

Me too, but I'd rather have that feeling than over confidence, everyone is expecting chavs to bounce back and get something out of it. We are not by miles clear favourites especially with Aguero and KDB ruled out. I'll take a draw.

Yeah, unfortunately, Pep confirmed them both to be out at the press conference. Could have done with Sergio for this one I think.

With those two out we really need Sane, Sterling, and the Silvas to step up. Cant rely on Jesus at the moment

Can see Sterling Sane and Mahrez as our front three tomorrow, each interchanging as they see fit just to confuse Chelsea’s defence

I can see it too, but would prefer Sané/Jesus/Sterling. I think Leroy and Raheem work better off a striker.
