mccg 1,528 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Chelsea Chelsea Chelsea's win against Tottenham was just a third in seven league matches, drawing one and losing three. They have lost their last three Premier League away games by an aggregate score of 12-0. The Blues could lose four successive away league matches for the first time since a run of five from October to December 2000 under Claudio Ranieri. They haven't gone four away league matches without scoring since December 1991. Chelsea have the same record after 27 Premier League matches as last season under Antonio Conte (W16, D5, L6). Pedro has scored eight Premier League goals this season under Maurizio Sarri, already double his tally in 2017-18 under Conte. Half of Pedro's league goals in 2018-19 have come in London derbies. MATCH FACTS Head-to-head This is the 50th top-flight fixture between Fulham and Chelsea. The Cottagers have won only three of the previous 49 (D16, L30). Fulham's current run of 17 games without victory versus Chelsea is their longest top-flight winless streak against any opponent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccheongf 211 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Sarri is goin to show who the boss by freezing Kepa at least 2 coming matches. To choose from 2 training sessions is bullshit. Still Sarri caused a lot of dissatisfaction between old and young players.Not a good coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe he refers to the confidence in using feet under pressure in order to start the game (remember the world cup ) besides, fulham is not a difficult match (on the paper) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fulham Broadway 17,319 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Heard that the 'racist' fans had their season tickets returned and bans lifted. Video and supporting evidence from stewards backed their story. Apologies from Matthew Syed, Dan Levene, Ian Wright etc etc and Sterling …..??

No easy games for us that's for sure, if we still want that top 4 place need to treat every game like a final.

Unionjack 7,531 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 I'd start off with a normal strong Lineup and hope we can bring in the B team soon. But would start CHO/RLC/Emerson MAYBE AC for Luiz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 I'm slightly nervous about today. It doesn't help the fact that I can't watch the game, but Fulham have a new manager to impress (albeit a caretaker), and have absolutely nothing to lose. This is their single biggest game of the season, this is their cup final. They're dead and buried as far as relegation is concerned (yes, I know it isn't mathematically confirmed, but they're a loooong way from safety), so what better way than to go down fighting, and to dick your nearest rivals in the process? They've nothing to lose and everything to prove. Johnnyeye and Laylabelle 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starman60 1,343 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 I'd like to think that game against City in the Carabao Cup, and the shambles that played out in the final stages of that game has become a catalyst for the rest of the season. The City and Spurs matches showed that if we play as instructed by Sarri, we can match any team in the Premiership. And today we face Fulham.....A team we should beat with ease, and I fully expect us to do so. But I wont be judging it on the final score. I will be judging it on the attitude, professionalism, desire, heart and hunger of the players to play for the Club. We cannot afford any slip ups between now and the end of the season, and with games against Manure and Liverpool away still to come we need to get back to being the tight unit we were at the beginning of the season. So lets not let the Spurs game be a one-off. Lets continue that form and deny this Fulham lot a shot on target like we did on Wednesday. Lets KTBFFH and be the Chelsea we all know we can, and should be from now until the season ends. Johnnyeye and kellzfresh 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

!Hazard! 3,394 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Great to see Christensen start and Emerson to get another game but I do think at least one of RLC or CHO should have started this one. Willian is crap RW anyways and Barkley hasn't done much since October On the other hand, our bench is starting look very strong! Nearly all of those players would start for Arsenal week in week out mccg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
