And the successful implementation of ‘Operation Keep Ten Haag’

Short term pain for long term gain.

Chelsea’s team certainly looks a lot stronger on paper. Wouldn’t be a surprise to see another defeat, but it’s a good test for some of the young lads. Looking forward to seeing how they get on.

Where can I find the game? On ESPN+?

Wouldn't be too surprised if that is the starting team for the community shield.

There is no chance Phillips plays in the community shield imo. I imagine ake will come in as well as Dias or akanji

 

[Barcon]

Is it available on the wireless at all?

A very strong side from Chelsea.

My 'hot-take' for the season in general is that they're in the title race. The fact that this is a hot-take after what they've spent is another discussion.

Just fell off my chair, title race, more chance of Crystal Palace.

Looking at the teams, probably gonna be another defeat

Chelsea have a strong team out which is no surprise with a squad of about 80 players

I did say it was a 'hot take.' Haha.

Their squad has a lot more talent than most. Their XI tonight is good, with a strong bench, and this is while still missing some key players who aren't back yet.

Bumping this because my Mum wants to listen. Is it broadcast on any radio stations?
