PRE/POST-MATCH DISCUSSION, LIVE CHAT AND ANALYSIS



2018/19 Premier League Match 4
1st September, Saturday, 2018
Stamford Bridge
15:00 Kick Off (UK time)

[Milan 17,958]

I still can't believe we lost to this lot 3-0 at home last season. 3-0!!! And 1-0 2 years before that. We struggled against them in the Cup game too so they kinda like this place.

This is the last game before the famous international break so hopefully we will make it 4 out of 4 before the players leave. That would be a dream start.

[the wes 7,212]

please drop Luiz and Morata for this game and try out AC and giroud for this game

[Pizy 18,927]

Of those sides that can look shocking one week and fantastic the next. 

At least we know that Bournemouth will be much more open and ambitious than the shite we saw today were. That's both a positive and a negative. That spell against Arsenal where they tore us apart shows that we can be very vulnerable. But then we saw us dominate that second half.

Hopefully we return to the high pressing effectively for this one which we didn't even need against Newcastle. Also hope Luiz stays switched on for 90 minutes because they've got good pace in their attack.

Forgot about that! They made it look so easy... Let's not do that again! 

Tough game but gotta win these.. Not lose by a stupid scoreline.

Referee announced for Chelsea vs Bournemouth - and it may not please the club's supporters

The Blues are looking to make it four wins from four on Saturday

Lee Mason will take charge of the game at Stamford Bridge this weekend having been the man in the middle for two of the Blues' Premier League matches last season, including against Huddersfield Town which left the Blues out of pocket.

Fuck Lee Mason

Tis a right old cunt

Craig Dawson’s goon-up on Zappacosta last season v the Raggies didn't even warrant a fucking free kick to him.

how was that not a foul or a red card for fucks sake? lol, right in front of the ref, if it was the other way around the ref wouldnt have hesitated to send off our player and the media wouldnt have shut up about it for sure, Lee Mason is a knob head, just like most referees in UK

[Johnnyeye 7,510]

fuck, i want revenge for last season's debacle, that 3-0 loss at home still stings, embarrassment to say the least, lets try and make amends this season, we have to beat them, no excuses. Cheers

"A very poor challenge!"

I'm all for going in hard but thats a big difference to dangerous.

The thing thats always got me is that refs never have to be made accountable in a post game media interview. They can totally fuck up a teams season yet carry on that night like nowt happened.

Or even if they had to meet some referee adjudicator to give them a rundown and explain some decisions it may make reffing a more generalized thing than have very good and utter shite.

I do sometimes think refs just do something to cause cortroversy and get their 5 minutes of fame.

Ovrebo, Frisk, Clattenburg, Webb, Dean, Oliver and the list goes on, we've been undone too many times in the past by shit refering.

Tbh so has every other team. Maybe a few are crooked, but mostly they just suck.

Not just for real, Bournemouth have beaten me at The Bridge 3 seasons out of 5 on my fifa career, two of which were 5-2

potential leg breaker ffs, with clear intent

5 games at least for violent conduct (red card goes without saying)

[chelseawise 115]

                  Kepa

Azpi .    Christenses     Rudiger . Alonso

                      Jorgiho

       Kante                       Kovacic

 

Willian .            Giroud                 Hazard

We'll turn the tables on them this season, 3-0 to us

We should be able to make them lose their cherries. But they will be in a good mood after their 3-0 LC win even if it was MK Dons. They do seem to be able to rally at the end after coming from 0-2 down at home to Everton to score 2 towards the end.

We are going to have to be carefuf with their defenders cause if I remember they were trying to wind up Everton and it worked on Richarlson.

But the guy we need to watch out for is Wilson. Hes going to run over Luiz if hes not careful and Ake of course!

[Special Juan 28,141]

Big difference now is we have a midfield controller in Jorginho, we will pin them in similar to Newcastle.

We will win this 2-0

Willian over Pedro?

It isnt that big a deal to me, all here know by know my feelings that we should have sold (or swapped for Martial) Willian and purchased one of (in order), but I do think Pedro is more of a Sarriball player.

Leon Bailey

Malcom (Barca paid only £37m ffs)

Federico Chiesa

Federico Bernardeschi

Christian Pulisic

Suso

Wild card (due to cost, but could the best of all these, in long run, save MAYBE Bailey) Ousmane Dembélé, who I do not think Barca will now sell, due to his vastly improved play so far. That fact leaves Malcom stranded with vastly reduced playing time, btw.
