Burnley is a fortress at home. Hopefully we start strong.

[Jase 43,479]

As LAB alluded to above, Burnley have the THIRD best home record in the league this season. Won't be easy at all. On top of that, their record against the top 6 isn't all that great but barring 2 games, all the others have been pretty close.

W 2-0 Liverpool
L 0-3 Chelsea
L 0-1 Arsenal
D 0-0 Man United
L 1-2 Man City
L 1-2 Tottenham

Ffs man you're so tense still?? We have great lead and just played the best football match for 3 months. When practically everyone performed. It's Burnley, we roll them over if we play the same as today and can match their desire. I want half of this squad gone to squad roles after this season but I try to milk as much enjoyment as I can from this season. Especially after performance like today.

We aren't good enough to win here, very poor....

Tense? Only pointing out that Burnley can pose a huge problem.

But for the sake of the argument, think there's every reason for me to be tense or cautious because (a) we have won nothing yet and (b) we have a tendency to make life difficult for ourselves. I enjoy it when we win and play well but there's still a long way to go.

Oh look who lose vs them  (btw. their is any club from bottom which didnt draw with United?  )

2-0 and hope that KFC drop points vs LFC.

I love big teams where we can counter attack but Burnley will surely park the bus. Need to start Fabregas and need to win this 2-0.

And if not, just let Willian, Hazard or anyone dive in Burnleys box just like that Son guy from Spurs today. Spurs are real penalty merchants it's pathetic.

[Gilvorak 3,734]

This is going to be an incredibly tough game. Cesc HAS to start, no excuses.

[Despiadado.Maleante 1,046]

Cesc and maybe even pedro for moses

[BlueStorm1003 539]

Cesc to start so we can open them up. I see us getting a 2-0

[manpe 10,861]

Not worried at all, we have Conte.

[Special Juan 27,601]

Tough game but we have enough to put them to bed....

[Footballover 222]

Who remembers this fixture two and a half years ago? Some of the best football we played, Diego's first goal and THAT assist by Fabregas... Amazing how much water flowed under the bridge since then and still it feels like it was yesterday. 

It's a difficult place to visit but our strength this season is the ability to beat those teams, even if by a one goal margin, I will surely be happy with that. Most importantly - start Cesc, and who knows, maybe we'll see another cracker from him. C'mon Chels!
