Chelsea (H) - Sun 21st May, 16:00 | Pre-Match Thread

Sensible line up and the main men might come on for the last ten minutes.

 

[jordtheblue]

The best bench in the land and all the world!!!

 

[WallyA]

LW Palmer again...

I guess it has to be to let Mahrez play RW.

 

[TheThirdDeano]

Why has pep fucked it that much??

Because the league is won and players need a rest.
There’s a difference between keeping players ready and running them into the ground. He’ll probably introduce them at 60… if the game isn’t too far gone

 

[Gumzy97]

I doubt we will see Haaland until the fa cup final.

 

[Le Havre Oswald]

Because it means nothing and the players are tired?

Pep out

 

[vmsuhail]

Cue the commentators and rival fans counting the cost of the bench tonight.

 

[Gabriel]

They’ll start criticising us for undermining the integrity of the competition with that starting eleven; then we’ll find ourselves three to the good in the first thirty minutes.

 

[Silva&Silva]

Is this our world class second team everyone was talking about?

 

[MichaelBBack]

Look at the bench. XD

I was genuinely not expecting that today. I thought he'd go full strength for the home game and celebration and then rotate for the last two. Quite surprised. We could very well lose today, but the team out there honestly should still be more than good enough to compete with a shocker of a Chelsea side.

Meaningless game anyway, may as well have a laugh with it. Enjoy everyone!
