Not sure a roast lamb dinner is my best idea, it's already 33c here at 9.30 am.

Stuck at work until 5 so won't have a clue what's happening and will be about over by the time I get in.

Last time I missed a game this big owing to work was Cardiff away. Let's not lads, eh?

I'm very nervous about this game, I don't have the confidence that some seem to have that we can get a win. Defensively they can be all over the place especially if they go with Rudiger in a back 3, but attacking wise they are excellent. Sad to say I think they'll have just enough to beat us.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I hope they play Kepa.

Nerves are really kicking in now. This is a massive moment. A tough but doable assignment. We have to be right on it.

Chelsea is a very good team, especially going forward with many different options thanks to Lampard..will be a VERY tough game if we wanna get something out of it..but we have top quality players too with many players that can threaten, just like them..will be a western shootoout

I'm not nervous. I'm excited!

This is what football is about ladies and gents. Enjoy it!

The last season one... where Gerry had to celebrate the Jota winner if he wanted to or not! :icon_lol:

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Boo. Better go mop the kitchen then...

Lamb stew here, but no way I can eat before the game. Feels like a cup final.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Don't quite get the nerves thing. Going into Monday was more tense as we absolutely couldn't afford to drop more points, victory was expected and all kinds of permutations were up in the air (at kick off, we weren't even guaranteed to finish above Sheff Utd or Burnley). We did win then Arsenal managed to rule themselves out of the equation so all good.

Here we're 100% going to finish either 6th or 7th and we can't do anything about the cup final next week.

I don't think there's all that much riding on it in the grand scheme of things. I mean, we have two games currently scheduled and this is the least important one by some distance...
