Chelsea's run has to end sometime, but I highly doubt it'll be here! Our 1-0 win there that got Mourinho finally sacked was a mental day last season, but I don't think there's much chance of a repeat sadly.
I tip my hat to any of our lot going, as the transport has been made an utter nightmare, with driving and finding somewhere to park basically the only option, since there's zero trains and the tube in that area is closed. If we get 1000 up there over Christmas, it'll be a good effort. All for what'll surely be a clear defeat.
I hope the performance shows a bit more energy than last Sunday though, and the selection will be interesting. Howe would be perfectly justified making several changes from that poor showing.

Eddie trying to confuse everyone with this selection! WTF formation will that line up in? 4 central midfielders and 3 full backs by my count. Bench looks stronger than the 11!

Was just about to say we're playing really really well and unlucky to be behind. A very good first half undone by a wonder goal.
Then we concede a clear penalty and it's 2-0. Harsh scoreline IMO but into damage limitation mode now.

Another Chelsea win on the cards.
Can we play someone who will actually challenge us.
One hand firmly on the premier league trophy now.

Conceded 3 goals, about right. Although annoyed the last was in the 93rd resulting from Ibe gifting it away.
First half was promising from what I could tell. Beaten by a world class individual moment, but otherwise matched Chelsea.
Second half it was one way traffic, although Afobe should have scored to make it 2-1 and a more interesting finish.
Mostly I'm amazed we got over 2600 people there despite the entire rail network being shite. Excellent effort.
Next to make sure we get something from Swansea next to keep ourselves ticking over.
