    Vardy at 33 still has that pace of his, so he can definitely hit us if we screw up.

    Tomori has to be back in the XI. He is, as one put it, a good firefighter defender, especially with his pace.

    And if Pulisic is back, sub him on at the least.

    I'd go with Tomori with Rudiger; Hopefully James is ready, if not, still want to see my Willian at rb experiment with Az on left and Kante playing a deep anchor, don't want either of our designated LB's to face their front 4.

    Kov gotta play too. Pul I'd rest so he gets the full break to fully recover, his absence has showed how extremely valuable and necessary he is to our side for finish. Hopefully rushing Kante taught a lesson on not rushing either PUL or Tammy with break coming.

    Surprisingly, I feel we do well with tough matches. Hopefully this continues.

    Vardy was supposed to be out. Now he's back in.

    Leicester favourites for this one, after 20 years of success its still quite hard getting used to mediocrity again, will take a draw.

    Well the big news is that Keppa has been benched.

    Also Tammy is starting up front and Pedro is preferred to William

    James is also back from injury

    That should have been a free kick for foot up with Tammy going clear

    Lampard: Guys, we need to score goals to win the game. More than the other team.

    Team: You got it, boss. When the ball is in the box, we'll act like ********ing buffoons and come close to scoring, but we won't score. Roger that.

    Lampard: No. Reece is going to literally hand you goals. You just gotta tap tap tap it in.

    Team: Gotcha. We'll do what we can to ******** this game into the ground and we'll come close, but we won't score.

    It does seem that at times it is easier to score than miss.

    Overall Chelsea have the best opportunities but Leicester have also come close when we have lost concentration. We do not look like a team that has played together at times, whilst at other times we look to have a subliminal link

    Just happier with the change. Do you really think that Cabo has done anything wrong so far

    Not great for the second tbh. Caught well out and never got properly set.
