Closed Burnley v Chelsea

[OneMoSalah 8,776]

I'd take a nice 2-0 win, the same as against Hull at the start of last season. Going out, winning 5 or 6-0 and sending a message would be nice too but personally I'd prefer a 2 or 3-0 win, with a great Costa performance, something that isn't exactly going to maybe put pressure on us to score 5 or 6 goals every game or make people expect that like with City last season.

I predict 3-1 our defense will not be as good as last season but our attacking will surely be better now with fabregas and Costa.

This is our strongest team since we last won the league, this is Mourinho's second season where he delivers the most.

Only crappy thing is we start the season on a short week. Only 4 days between our first two matches.

Anyone else scared shitless by this game?

We are playing away on a monday to a newly promoted side who have nothing to lose. This will be a tough game I feel.

Yeah, and considering that basically everyone is saying we are the favourites for the title, the pressure will be immense, especially on the new lads. Preseason is just preseason.

[Magic Lamps 11,653]

Why the actual fuck do we play on a monday whilst Utd of course get their game out of the way at first. btw didn't they also play Swansea in their first game last season.

Chelsea had been scheduled to kick off their Premier League campaign with a visit to Burnley on August 16th, but Sky, in Their infinite wisdom, have decided that it would be better for the Blues to play on Monday instead.

I don't see the difference. If we played on Saturday some people might have complained anyways because we would have had only 4 days between the matches against Sociedad and Burnley.

WHY MONDAY!

[Magic Lamps 11,653]

The one is a pre-season game where the intensity is naturally lower and more changes are allowed. If I could chose, I'd definitely play Burnley monday.
