Chelsea vs Crystal Palace (PL) Sunday 17th August 14:00 GMT

Come on the blues… feeling confident today… looking outstanding in preseason, hopefully carry that form in today’s game…3-1 Chelsea 🤘🏻👍🏻 still can’t understand why we haven’t gone in for a goal keeper though…

 
Which again begs the question why we’re not in for Guehi?

Because Guehi wants pool and is he really a Colwill/Tosin type of player that can be the sweeper?

 
We are staying over in Wimbledon tonight

Its a long story

However See that the club are asking us to get to the ground early for an some sort of-presentation. Any ideas ?

Intriguing, It this had been two months ago I would probably gone with "Mudryk's B Sample", also assuming that the Todd statue is still in the design concept, so

being totally optimistic a 60m front of shirt sponsor would be rather nice, there again judged on the clubs current trend of opportunities to wind up spurs the presentation of Eberechi Eze would be a good one (yes I know not needed but what's another body) ... BUT fearing the worst and knowing my luck it will probably be the unveiling of Alejandro Garnacho.

 
I have no idea what team will show up here I still have PTSD from last season with them boring football so my prediction is if we go behind we are losing if we score first we will draw.

Do Spanish and Italian supporters say the word 'boring' anywhere near as much as English people? People in Cymru don't go on about football being boring as much, I think it's down to John Toshack who is labelled as the guy who brought a more balanced attitude to football in Spain, possession and conserving energy is quite important in football. Toshack is such a massive figure on this side of the border, and the way Swansea have traditionally played. Most English people should be watching rugby league not football, it's obvious.

Chelsea 3-1. Palmer 28'.

 
We have been handed a decent start by the fixtures drawn. No excuses, we should be winning today and going on a winning run.

 
Really hoping everyone is on song today and Josh has a good game. Would be horrible if he had a mare here. Slightly unfair situation for him and every coach in the world would give him his start at some other day. I am sure he is confident in his skill.

 
Josh starts

As expected. If Tosin is not injured it would have been the same team as against ac Milan.

Better be winning, I don't think the fan base will be happy to see Estevao not starting.

 
I'm not sure about Jamie Gittens yet.. Hope he proves me wrong, decision making/football brain not good yet.

Also worried about us still getting caught in the break over and over again, with the opposition have two spare unmarked players in our box, same old story. 🤔

We are so back!! What a great summer for us, shame I could only lurk here and not participate. All of the new signings looked great.

Very excited for the new season, expecting a very tough match against Palace. I just hope we don't see any more injuries.

Come on you Blues.

 
Zouma Kicks GIttens Was not allowed as a fantasy team name....boo

Happy Josh starts. Good for the lad to get the trust. Surprised not Hato.

 
Think we win this one 2-1

With Palmer scoring first.

Disappointed to see Gittens starting would have preferred to see Estevao instead.

Likely to be close and Palace front three also look decent.

 
Lavia got a strain ? How the f**k does he get a strain picking up his wages is the only way
