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

Not expecting a win today but I'm honesty not that bothered as we'll be lifting the trophy afterwards.

Main thing is we get the rotation right in the next three games to give us the best possible chance in the finals.

You should expect a win. Chelsea's team is awful and the side Pep has put out is more than capable of getting a win

Might be this?

..................Ortega
....Walker.....Akanji.......Laporte
........Phillips.......Lewis...........
.........Palmer.......Foden........
Mahrez.......Àlvarez......Gómez

I would like to see that, to assess some of the players here. For example, is Lewis an alternative at left-back, or do we keep him at right-back/midfield? Another one is Gomez in the more attacking role. That's his natural position after all :).

On the bright side , Philips gets his first pl medal .

Which is more than Spitty and Slippy combined.

Does baldy not read the "City bets" thread?
No great gesture from the boss for those lads who don't get too much game time.
C'mon Blue boys

I think this is a massive fuck up personally. Momentum is everything in football. I know Chelsea are wank like but if I had to pick a starting XI out of our squad to get beat by them...

Also completely thrown us all under the fantasy football bus. A fucking rags gonna win my league now haha

In the ground now. Empty seats everywhere. This is what happens when you're handed the title. Piss poor from our home fans........

That bench tho

Might be one of the strongest benches of all time.

It's gonna be a proper party atmosphere, but I still wanna win!

I hope the lads playing today play the match, not the occasion. We badly needed several of them throughout the season, where they've mainly failed to impress so far

Now's their chance. Hopefully the defence will be Walker, Akanji, Laporté & Gomez, with Lewis & Philips playing double pivot & Foden playing centrally.

I seriously DON'T want to see Palmer playing centrally, nor Lewis at Left Back. Please DON'T over-think today Josep! You promised us on Tuesday those days were done! View attachment 80194

I think you are spot on here :).
