Chelsea (A) - Sun 18th Aug '24 | Post Match Thread

[Didsbury Dave]

Only question from today is, does Pep trust the bench? I dont think he made a single sub.
A part from foden coming on for an injury.

Of course he “trusts” them. He doesn’t make changes for the sake of it, people never seem to get this. We didn’t need to make any subs. If we’d have been 3-0 you might have seen some.

 

[Benarbia’s Backheel]

It’s Rico season

Gundogan not so discreetly put the feelers out that he wanted to come back to City last summer and he immediately regretted leaving.

Where did you get that from please?

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Did anyone check to see if we came out early enough for the second half?

Where did you get that from please?

Not Mrs Gundogan :-)

Sam Lee said so on the podcast he does with David Mooney a while ago

I know he’s not a popular figure on here but he’s not going straight up invent that out of nowhere so I’m inclined to believe it.

I think I’ll take that with a pinch of salt then;)

Great result, had some dodgy periods as expected. Toughest gane out of the teams hunting for the title and the scum as well:-)

Might have been asked already, but anyone know why chelsea didn't have a main shirt sponsor ?

Good win boys, a few nervous moments, but overall controlled things with less possession than normal.

Excellent result,.and an apparently comfortable performance...didn't look in any particular trouble from what I could see..well done blues, great start
