I do wonder if Frank picks up right where we left off with Billy thrown straight back in at the base of the midfield.

I also wonder what his thinking will be on playing Willian knowing that he has yet to extend until the end of the season. Or will he just try to get us ready for life without him?

Anything on Reece? (didn't see him in any pics vs QPR).

The info on Fik and Callum came in response to a general question about injuries. Hopefully it's a good sign that Frank did not mention Reece when he detailed the problems the other two are suffering.

I think he still trains or at least Chelsea still posts pictures of RJ training. He will not start anyway against Villa because Azpi is our Captain, Leader, Legend

He is not a leader and certainly not a legend.
When I say Azpi or Cahill(when he was Captain) are our Captain, Leader, Legends, I do not mean they were actually leaders. I mean it in a sarcastic way.

But I would say that Azpi will be considered a Chelsea Legend when he retires, because in his prime he was a monster. Best one vs one defender I have seen at Chelsea.
He was one of the main reasons why we won 2 PL titles during his time

Spuds and Utd draw. Not a bad result but probably could've done with a Spud win. Thing that worries me however is how the ref was trying his best for Utd. That second penalty decision was shocking, thankfully it got over turned.

Nah it's good we win and we open up a 5pt gap. I think Utd will drop more points too - they just look awful as a team. 

If we can hit the ground running and start like we did at the beginning of the season- we are in business to cement 4th place.

United looked arrogant - and Spuds looked average at best.

He has been arguably our most consistent player over the past 5 seasons. 

Yes, he's reaching the twilight of his career - disgraceful post against a fucking legend in the right back position. 

Why the fuck do you support the team if you have to slate everybody? Grow up or get a life whichever is easier 👍

I can understand if people don't see Azpi as a leader, like Terry or Lampard (boy, were we spoilt for leaders in the past), but to constantly use that stick to beat him up is a total BS. Like you and @killer1257 have said, he was/has been arguably our most consistent player since 2013 and is one of the main reasons why we have won what we won during this period. To discredit him because he is not a big character or does not have the personality like Terry is farcical. There is a reason why Azpi has played consistently under different managers over the years.

I do not see Utd dropping many points, there run in couldn't have been hand picked better. They have: 

Sheff Utd (H)

Norwich (A)

Brighton (A) 

B'mouth (H) 

Villa (A) 

Soton (H) 

Palace (A)

West Ham (H) 

Leicester (A) 

2 games against current top 7, 5 games against bottom 6.

Ours

Villa (A) - Possibly our biggest bogey ground in the PL 

City (H) 

Leicester (A)

West Ham (A) 

Watford (H) 

Palace (A) 

Sheff Utd (H) 

Dippers (A)

Wolves (H)

That three London derby's plus 5 games against the top seven. 

I would say anything but a win at Villa then 12 points from the Leicester, West Ham, Watford and Palace games and we won't finish top 4 and will have to hope for 5th place getting it for us.

Yeah, Dave has been great. Will be regarded as one of the best FB's in the clubs history.

@Tomo might have something to say about Villa Park being our bogey ground. :lol:
