I've just been looking at Chelsea's squad and last few performances.
Rookie Lampard chooses not to play Willian, Alonso ( dangerous at set-pieces and overlapping), Tomori and Giroud ( set pieces). Pedro and their best player Kante are unfit.
They no longer have a Hazard or a Costa.
They play rookies Abraham and Mount who were very little trouble to us last season.
Zouma is a disaster waiting to happen. Barkley is seriously over-rated. Kovacic and Jorginho are not incisive, more crabby Ray Wilkins types that flatter to deceive.
Azpilicueta is not in the form he used to be. Keeper and Christensen ordinary. Left back, forget his name looks o.k.
I was really looking forward to watching Wilson, Frazer, Zaha, Townsend, Vardy, Maddison and Tiellemans in the first three games. None of them did that well against our strong squad. Not bothered about any of the Chelsea team now Kante is out.
This Chelsea lot are 13th in the table and look no better than that to me. They do have a strong crowd to start with at games. Keep 'em out first 20 minutes and let them all gradually run out of steam. Bring it on!
