Closed Burnley v Chelsea

[CHOULO19 24,332]

My cousin's going for the game. He wanted to know which pubs would the fans be at. Anyone who can help?

There was a thread somewhere with people talking pubs for this game and agreeing meet up before it. That might help.

Can't wait to see. But unfortunetaly will have to work. Will try watch live video on smartphone

This isn't going to be an easy game by any means. The naivety of some people is ridiculous.

This is a team that have just been promoted playing their first game in the Premier League at home, against an opponent as good as us. They're going to want to prove themselves. The atmosphere's going to be absolutely electric, the players will play like it's the FA Cup final. Sean Dyche will have a very easy job geeing the players up.

I can see this finishing 1-0 to either side.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

I predict we concede first then just about turn it around late on. 2-1.

Thank god I'm not the only one. This is probably the last game I'd like us to open the season with. I'd take City away over this in all honesty because promoted sides on opening days, especially in Northern shithole towns care the living crap out of me.

They'll be up for this, they'll have superhuman levels of stamina, the crowd will make the ground very claustrophobic and it looks like it's going to rain too. Excited but bricking it.

I don't even want to think what is gonna happen here if we don't win on Monday.

[Billy. 2,742]

We need to send out a massive statement on Monday, but it wont be an easy game. I feel we need to score early to kill the crowd. And after what the sun put in the paper about Costa i think he has to be on the score sheet on Monday

[Magic Lamps 11,692]

The only thing important is the 3 points. Even if it is unspectacular and without a Costa goal, a win is a win. We usually win scrappy on th opening day, so expect no difference this time.

I agree with the Costa thing, but the problem is if he dont he will be called 'a flop' 'waste of money' by the press other fans and painfully some Chelsea fans to (Torres fan boy/girls)

As long as we win...

[The Rising Sun 711]

I fully expect us to win and win well.

It would be totally understandable if we had the same squad as last season, and people on here were expecting a 1-0, 2-1 sort of result.

But with this season's squad, i am quite confident we will win with some flair and command the game.

We have simply added too much quality and the fact that the new boys have settled in so effortlessly, there is no unknown quantities in play.

Hazard to be better, Oscar to be better, Willian to be better, Schurrle to be a revelation, Fabregas to be a smashing success, Luis to add stability and Costa to Smash!

No need to worry.

Tomorrow can't come soon enough! Sure its going to be a tough game but with our squad we should be confident of getting all 3 points.
