I’m sure Hazard and the like will love seeing that back 4. We really need more strength in depth when it comes to our defence.

The middle two are fine but I know what you mean. Those full backs look a little fragile!

For me, the jury is still out when it comes to Dragovic.

There's a slim chance it could be 3 at the back with albrighton and chilwell wide. But i doubt it. We need to stop Alonso and we also need chilwell and albrighton to stop azpilicueta getting balls into morata early. They've had not with that all year.
From our side if mahrez and hardy are up for it Chelsea could hopefully have one of those games where everyone says 'they've had too many games...

Frank or Joe?

The CBs are hardly the most solid you can expect to counter in the league, nevermind the fullbacks. 3-1 Chelsea.

Does Silva not exist any more?

He was really wobbly at first but I've been a little more reassured by him of late. His positioning is pretty good but I do feel he can be a bit rash at times. It wouldn't surprise me if he got a few cards here and there but he's in a different class to Benalouane who scares the bejesus out of me!

He played for the under 23s last night.

Did anyone watch the game? Was he any good?

It was played at Dagenham's ground and there was no stream. He was taken off after an hour. Finished 0-0.

Thanks Jeff.

That back four looks weak as a small kitten, and I'm not sure having Matty James in front of them is going to help much.

This might be painful

I'd be shocked if we don't concede.

I've a feeling you're not going to be shocked today. We really must strengthen defensively this month.

Not many teams keep clean sheets at Stamford Bridge.

We've started well, had a few shots already but nothing on target
