Again? Last time we drew 1-1 was at Leeds.
Apparently our game on Sunday ended 1-1 according to a respectable and  reliable source.

Heaton, Elmo, Konsa, Mings, Targett, Nakamba, Lansbury, Hourihane, Trez, Wes, Jack.

In two minds re Konsa, poor yesterday but his pace is useful playing a high line. Tight call with Engels for that slot. Nakamba simply has to come back into midfield for me. Luiz is not doing enough for me and McGinn is struggling. Don't rate Lansbury much but if he could put in 60mins then a fully fired up McGinn to go at them for last 30mins plus would be great.

Tough one this. They are better than Man Utd currently. Could of also done without them losing at home on Saturday as difficult to see them losing two at home in a week. Would take a draw all day. McGinn is looking jaded, but don’t think Lansbury the answer, agree with bringing Nakamba back though.

Sounds like Tammy will be back. Typical for us that the only game he missed was against one of our rivals.

3-1 defeat.

Think Chelsea's attacking players will be too much more so if Tammy returns. Gulibert certainly out and AEG probably won't make it so we won't be at full strength either.

Think we'll get a draw v Leicester though.

We go 1 up in the first half. Chelsea pull one back and it's all equal at the break. Two inspired substitutions from Dean at the ¾ mark and Wesley puts us ahead on 84 minutes. Dean brings on Kodjia and we see the game out. 3 points.

Maybe start with Kodjia and leave Wesley on the bench. He is a liability and I dont mean his header on Sunday that "gifted" ManUtd a goal. His header could have gone anywhere. He just cant shoot, or run with the ball. At least Kodjia can shoot and run.

He reminds me of that Beatles/ Ringo quote, I'll paraphase.
"Wesley isnt the best forward in the world… Let’s face it, he wasnt even the best forward for Villa at ManUtd”

I'd rather have Hourihane upfront - Wesley is that bad
And no, I havent been drinking  ;D

2-1 Chelsea with them scoring in the fifth min of extra time after we have had two disallowed by VAR.
