[Shadey]

I want to see frank with tears in his eyes.

 

[Shay_K]

COME ON YOU RED MEN

 

[rurikbird]

Let’s go!

 

[FoxForceFive]

Werner left Fabinho for dead there. Fuck.

Better that time.

 

[Shay_K]

Fabs in control

 

[FoxForceFive]

It's gonna be a long 90 mins for Fabinho this.

We could do with scoring a couple early to take some pressure off him a bit.

 

[FreshRed]

If Fabs gets injured, Hendo?

 

[keniget]

Very nervous already.

Feels like a big game for us.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Fuck Robbo. TAA deals with the high ball well enough to bail us out.

 

[Modo]

If Fabs gets injured, Hendo?

Tsimikas

 

[FoxForceFive]

Very nervous already.

Feels like a big game for us.

It's massive, being able to get 6 points on the board before City play & potentially getting 9 from three opening tricky fixtures would pile the pressure on city straight out of the gate.

 

[rurikbird]

Werner starts on the left of the front 3 (Havertz at CF), unsurprisingly looking to run at Fabinho at every opportunity.

Hendo at DM, Keita in the more advanced RCM position.

 

[FreshRed]

Tsimikas

Doubt that. I suspect Thiago is in the squad in case Hendo needs to drop.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Some really good crisp play from us in that passage there.

 

[Modo]

Doubt that. I suspect Thiago is in the squad in case Hendo needs to drop.

Maybe, hopefully we don't find out.

 

[Shay_K]

Chelsea sitting back and hardly pressing

 

[Shadey]

Kin el

 

[FoxForceFive]

Could do with more of those long shots.

They're set up specifically to force us wide so we can't shoot from distance which is causing us some problems.

 

[FreshRed]

Haha. “that was almost a Pickford dive after the ball’s gone past the goal”

 

[FoxForceFive]

Fuuuccck.

 

[Fabio]

We're not looking awful, but they look like they could be very potent on the counter

 

[rurikbird]

Kepa almost punished after being caught in no-man’s land

 

[Fabio]

Really need keita or gini to put a foot on this match

 

[Shay_K]

Fab sorts Timo out nicely there

 

[SummerOnions]

Fabinho looking unfazed at least

 

[SummerOnions]

Really need keita or gini to put a foot on this match

Yep. Would hope the Thiago signing puts a rocket up their ass to perform

 

[rurikbird]

Fabs to his credit winning his duels with Werner so far, but it looks like it’s all one slight mistake away from a Werner 1 on 1. He needs more support.

 

[Modo]

Chelsea are really passing the ball well. Our counter press is mostly fruitless

 

[keniget]

That high line terrifies me.
