    Where: Stamford Bridge, Hammersmith and Fulham, SW6, London, England. Or wherever you watch football. For me, it'll be my couch, with a cup of coffee.

    When: 9:01 EST, 8:01 A.M. CST, 7:01 A.M. MST, 6:01 A.M. PST. England time: 2:01 P.M.

    -Why are the matches starting with a 1 minute delay? It's to promote mental health awareness.

    Should be enough, good to rest Tammy and Kante. Relax Pul fans this is actually a sign, me thinks, that Pul is getting rest and time to heal a bit from a tweak cause he is the first choice along with Willian wide

    CHO needs time and a full start (last year we mostly all said with his injury he might not be back at all til mid-winter and not to his best all season, yet he comes early and people ragging him for, yes clearly, not being near his best already:rolleyes:)

    Pedro and Barkey must be window displays at this point

    I wish I believed that. Willian has played more minutes than anyone and yet he's in the team. It's hard to give credibility to a manager who drops the most creative player from the squad completely.

    I am a Pul fan, but more a Blues fan and this "drop him completely" thing is bad for Blues business. Especially when Mount and Willian are still in the 18.

    oy vey, if he "is dropped completely" for the next pl match or CL match, and truly 100% healthy:cautious:,then you can worry and rant about manager credibility:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

    might also be hint from gaffer to not contradict him with "100% healthy" social media posts, in a not concurrent that blows up the issue kinda way

    ps how good are James' crosses

    Ross Barkley killing that counterattack is why he doesn’t start or play much anymore.

    The offside and VAR is becoming as complicated as certain NFL rules.

    think var chose offside to avoid overturning ridic pk call, tie to attacker on offsides for me though

    Crazy that this game just isn't on TV, at all. BT Sport has 5 channels and on Champions League nights does multiscreen on one channel... BBC are showing Blue Planet II (which is great but also 2 years old and on Netflix).

    I find streams less easy to find these days... Ever since r/soccerstreams got shut down haha. Did quite quickly find a stream that is on YouTube so nice and stable, airplay to the big screen, lovely job.

    Co-commentator just said modern pitches are responsible for injuries. If he's talking about turf generally I can understand but I also think it's partly that top level players these days are finely tuned athletes rather than the talented dad bods of his days. You can't tell me uneven, muddy, quagmires are more conducive to player fitness.
