Chelsea (N) - Sat 16th May, 15:00 | FA Cup Final | Pre-Match Thread

[malg]

It’s only a game of football at the end of the day.

 

[denTTony]

Ait Nouri and Gonzalez out this summer then?

Surprised Nico not bench. I guess Ake is preferred if we need a Lb

 

[Revolver]

The pessimist in me thinks Pep is overthinking things again in a final. Rodri is not up to speed and we have a rarely tried front 2.

Optimist in me thinks Pep mostly proves to be right.

 

[lasereyes]

Why does Semenyo start every game. What makes him undroppable?

Scored a bloody good goal last game?

 

[Zenmanc]

Lets go lads.

Playing Rodri isn't "overthinking things".

 

[OntarioBlue]

Is it safe to turn the TV on yet ?

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Fuck me. Rooney, Sturridge, and Richards. About four braincells between them and Sturridge has three of them.

 

[TinFoilHat]

COME ON CITY!!!

Statement win today please.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Marmoush is a strange one. Especially as it didn’t work last year.

Has the BBC asked Suggs to join the panel yet?

No one mentions the Chelsea pensioners to Shrek....

 

[Revolver]

Playing Rodri isn't "overthinking things".

If he is match fit it certainly isn’t

 

[Lost in space]

Come on City smash the cnuts and send us into next week on a high!!!

 

[B\connellblue]

Marmoush and semenayo have two of the worst first touches at the club. Cherki or foden should have started .

 

[Macca77macca]

Best team will always be chosen for a cup final.

Goalkeeper decision aside.

Stones when fit is in the best team. He has shown this in the games played.

 

[deano ou812]

Do Chelsea have any tall German players in their squad..

 

[Bettys Bell]

Always brings a tear to my eyes when Abide with me is sung . Come on City

 

[domalino]

Why does Semenyo start every game. What makes him undroppable?

He scores goals even when he’s not playing very well overall, and we are still really short of goals. Haalands form still hasn’t come back much and Doku only started scoring 2 weeks ago.

 

[noseve]

Abide With Me used to be so emotional - not the same with so many empty seats (and only 10 minutes before kickoff?)

 

[Mr Blue Moon]

So where’s our badge on the pitch then?
