Match Thread Chelsea v Leicester

[londonfox]

Nacho and Perez are better than Ian at closing defenders down. That's what I'm thinking anyway, brave move. Hopefully this year's experience of the euro cup gees us up for getting the job done tonight.

Nacho or Ian, that's a touch choice.

**** sake....can tell I've not started the cans yet.

 

[mabrah]

S'okay, I knew what you meant.

 

[lesterboy]

If we can't work out the formation what chance do Chelsea have? The line up will keep them guessing hopefully long enough for us to get ahead and bring 3 defenders on.

 

[fitz]

He can balance things on his head though, surely that's a skill we can make use of.

Anyone good at video editing that could put the Nacho hat on him?

I get that Nacho was absolutely shite on Saturday, but Perez wasn’t much better. Odd decision.

He was though. A lot better. I'm not saying he was great you understand, but just that he really was much, much better than our Ian.

Yebbut I bet Nacho's better at balancing stuff on his head than Perez.

 

[Brown Nose]

I can't imagine that it is sensible to expect 90mins from Vardy. Having the option to bring on Iheanacho is a good one.

Nah. He was balancing a whore on his face with aplomb at Maddison's smashing party.

Absolutely. I am sure that's the thinking behind it.

Tuchel is out with the excuses already - "it's a young team" and all that. I'm telling you, he's a bottler. We will beat them again

 

[Graz]

BNs bets of the evening:

Chilwell to score - hoping that I've doomed that particular worry.

Fofana to score - it's overdue.

Same two as me!

Except Nacho rarely performs off the bench.

A lot suggesting 2 up front. No way he's picking Perez up front over Nacho

My thinking is he wanted to go 4 at the back but didn't want to do that with 2 up front, and Vardy is better than Nacho as a lone striker (and no way he'd drop Vardy)

 

[homer]

Sky calling it as 3-4-2-1

 

[Graz]

Sky showing it as 3-4-2-1

Could be. Pack the midfield. Who bloody knows

 

[Willlow]

Good luck everyone

 

[Jenks]

Too much optimism on here. Chelsea are injured and desperate. I see them beating us 2-1.

AAAAND IT’S LIIIIIVE
Literally, **** whoever decided that was a thing right in the eye.

Especially when he spends the rest of the match seemingly one step away from a coma
