But it used to be 96 x 48. I 'm sure of it. SB has a track so can be extended. In theory the width could be extended, but the length is pretty much maxed out. The length was restricted by Ken Bates determination to build his stupid hotels. He's a hero to many Chelsea supporters, but I can't stand the bloke.

Edit: He did: https://thetransferroom.com/Chelsea/thomas-tuchel-hints-at-stamford-bridge-pitch-extension-under-new-Chelsea-owners Also I think I can recall Sarri talking about it, but can't find source.

Top six is definitely possible and should be the main target for the rest of the season. If the aim is therefore to maximise results now then that is the argument for Auba. I just want to see where DDF's level is. What I'm most looking forward to on Saturday however is seeing Lavia in the flesh for the first time. He was fantastic. Dominated the middle of the park. 14 hours ago, Vesper said: only four pitches are smaller in the EPL than SB and we are the narrowest Craven Cottage – Area: 6,500m Goodison Park – Area: 6,832.64m Selhurst Park – Area: 6,868m Anfield – Area: 6,868m (will soon be expanded) Stamford Bridge – Area: 6,993.41m Doesn't surprise me. I always have said that I think part of the reasons our wingers struggle here is because of the narrow size of the pitch. Not enough room to stretch the opposition. Martinelli and Saka for example have so much width on the pitch to attack their opposition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and the pesky little detail of we need to actually win games to get up the table.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
