most on here wouldnt have a clue who or what he was to the club.

 

A decent bit of respect to Mourinho before the match....then 90 minutes of Matthew Hardings blue white army

Lol it is a bit like that on here now. Not always like that though, used to be quite a few who knew who he was and what a great bloke he was

Club owner Roman Abramovich celebrates his 50^th birthday on Monday, and Conte is well aware a win over United would be the perfect early present.

‘He deserves this for his commitment to Chelsea, myself and the players want to give this gift,’ said Conte.

 

The club owes everything to Roman, without him we wouldn´t have enjoyed so much success, City who?

i know who he was, he died in a horrible helicopter crash, may he rest in peace even after all these years, that season Chelsea won the FA Cup, 1996/1997 we signed Zola that season, the club dedicated the trophy to him  just a shame he couldn´t live to witness the club´s change of fortunes and the success that came with it, it would be amazing if we got the win against United for him. Cheers

Le Tis would have been an ace signing but he wanted to stay near his folks in Guernsey.

Have to say some of our management decisions are woeful, but the way they deal with former pros, or how they're handling the Harding anniversary compared to what Bates used to do is superb.

awesome,  must have been great, always a joy beating the mancs and to trash them is even better.

[LegenTerry 272]

I can see us winning this if our goal stays untouched for  first 20-30 minutes.

Hazard x2,Costa.....Rashford for them,3-1 🙏

Today's results have been nice so far, making a win tomorrow a perfect ending to the weekend.

All three points tomorrow and we are right in the mix for top four and either three off the top if City wins or one if City draws or loses.

We need a goal early to break up the 11 behind the ball Jose strategy. Or are we better to slug it out and hope for late winner? With our Backline, keeping the negative minded might be a plus.

Come on you Chelsea!!

Man, imagine what a huge psychological boost a win would be. Not just for the players either. Conte getting a win against a huge opponent after those beatings we took at the hands of Liverpool and Arsenal.it would feel like vanquishing a demon and proving to ourselves that we can compete at the top.

My biggest areas of concern are Matic and the wing backs Moses and Alonso. Matic has been very solid in the last few matches but will have some very athletic and highly mobile midfielders to deal with in Pogba and Herrera. Those are they types he normally struggles with.

Then I'm nervous about how Moses and Alonso deal with a master tactician like Mou who is an expert at exploiting potential weakness. Luckily, I think I read Martial is out injured so we won't have his pace and trickery to deal with. 

If you offered me a draw right now I'd definitely take it.

Wonder if Mou will concede possession to us.
