This won't be easy, we don't like hostile places and crowds getting behind their team and that are very vocal

Probably go to pens.

Still no Lavia for this one

Am I correct in thinking Sanchez can serve his 1 match suspension tomorrow and return for the next PL game?

How many games has Lavia actually been fit for? 

What a waste of money

Maresca on Liverpool: "The players they have decided to buy show the intention of the club to go again for the Premier League and the Champions League, and that is quite clear."

Continued: "If Liverpool continue in this way, I think it is impossible to catch them, not just for us, but for all the clubs. They have been doing a fantastic job since last year..."

Maresca: “I’d love to rest Tosin and Trev. The problem is that we also have Wes Fofana playing after a long time. So if we rest Tosin, if we rest Trev, and if we rest Wes, probably I need to play some part of the game. We don't have defenders, so some of them need to play.”

Maresca says he’s very worried about Chelsea slipping up tomorrow in this type of game.

Maresca says the target this season is to continue to improve players and continue to close the gap.

With Chelsea we are always saying next season we will start competing. Then when that season starts we say it about the next one. It is definitely frustrating.

From "I've fallen in love with Acheampong" to "I might have to play myself" in just a few months, that's crazy.😠

Maresca did put his trust in Josh for the PL season opener, and Josh repaid him with a literal MOTM performance. 0 minutes since then... make it make sense.☠️

Maresca speaking out against the board/directors, aka how you know it's the beginning of the end for a manager.

Whilst he's far from the worst head coach/manager we have ever had.i kinda wish he was one that can't speak English to avoid some of the dismal shit that comes out of his mouth in interviews.

Haven't been to Sincil bank for about 30 plus years.was an away game but not with Chelsea.went from spending time in Wales over Christmas with Welsh side of my family to going to watch Cardiff play there.then Lincoln started chanting nasty shit about Aberfan..and the rest ain't for a family show..

horrible cunts Lincoln.after Bomber Command left there for the last time they should have dropped all surplus Bombs on the place.

Only a little less than Fofana.

Yup, very obvious now from his comments he's at war with the directors and the board (rightfully)

I dont agree with the way he's going about it though, i.e. by dropping points through bonehead moves. Fans deserve better.

And yeah, a manager at loggerheads with the board. Never a good sign.

Winning a single CWC trophy doesn't give you much room for argument.

If Maresca get’s himsef sacked then who next? That fucker from Strasbourg would be my best bet.

Someone like the Bournemouth manager would be good
