Chelsea are 70/1 to win the premier league and if they win today they close the gap on city to one point

Chelsea coming off two defeats but where they played v. well and could have won either game. Lampard doesn't seem to have figured out what his best 11 is yet, constant rotation, here he's dropped Kovacic for Mount which is fair enough because Kovacic has played poorly last 2 games and Mount is one of his búm boys. Giroud also retains the striker berth
Arrizabalaga Azpilicueta Christensen Zouma Emerson Kanté Jorginho Pedro Mount Pulisic Giroud for me that's not a team you put faith in at this current moment. however, they have played well at times and Mount/Pulisic are very unexposed types and could both be anything. it will be interesting to see how well they play in this first home game for FL. Leicester still have the new coach vibe as Rodgers has not been there that long. a 0-0 draw with Wolves opening weekend could set the tone for an underwhelming season Schmeichel Ricardo Pereira Evans Söyüncü Fuchs Ndidi Pérez Tielemans Choudhury Maddison Vardy It's a structurally strong team, defensively very sound. it's more functional than flair. This fixture is low-scoring, there have been 8 goals in the last 5 matches here at the Bridge and from the line ups I'd lean towards it being low scoring. Pulisic looked dangerous vs Liverpool and he could open his CFC account today. Leicester won here last season 1-0 through a Vardy goal and Chelsea have failed to score in the last 2 seasons in this fixture. Chelsea have questions to answer already. Leicester look mid table and no better or worse 1-0 / 1-1 / 2-1 / 2-0 i.e. not a goal fest but leaning towards the home win |

Was thinking similar there Masta low scoring game, might just watch first 15 mins to get a feel for the game. This strategy wouldn't have worked in the city v spuds match yesterday

Who takes the spot kicks for Chelsea Giroud?
|
|
By:
64% of goals in this fixture have come in the second half so it may well be thinking about that at half-time whatever the score may be
|
|
By:
it will be jorginho i think possibly unless he's been retired from his duty
|
|
By:
Just put fiver on Jorginho first goalscorer for my first interest. Good luck all.

Leicester getting maulicated here

Just keep backing Chelsea next goal

Chelsea have had excellent spells in both their games so far. My worry is that they've always got a goal waiting to happen at the other end. need a 2-0 lead here

How teams manifest so quickly into relegation fodder is beyond me.
Yep next |

By:
Rodgers ran away from the Stevie Gerrard challenge and not doing much better with the Frank Lampard one.

Leicester been very poor........gap in class

1-1
Chelsea throwing away points here. |
|
By:
No marking just a free header really.
|
|
By:
What a miss, should be 1-2, that was an absolute gimme.
|
|
By:
Leicester looking more likely to grab a winner.
|
|
By:
Chelsea aint got the main man anymore to dig them out, gonna be interesting how they fair this season.
|
|
By:
total turn around
|
|
By:
Lampard needs to win the game, so he straight swaps Jorghino for Kovacic? and Willian for Pulisic? surely you take off Jorghino and bring on Barkley! and maybe swap Willian with the Pedro who nearly 33 I think.
|
|
By:
Leicester are probably bottom half canon fodder this season, so the fact Chelsea are struggling to finish them is a sad reflection on this Chelsea side
Lampard will be gone soon if this carries on, he's just not cut out for top level management sadly His tactical side is horrendous as well, that's two games in a row in the league he's made awful tactical changes |
|
By:
Leicester's pink shirts are horrible.

Who are Chelsea's high class players since Hazard left, Kante?
|
|
By:
Frank Lampard player manager?
|
|
By:
Lampards a dead man walking at Chelsea, fast forward a few months and a club statement thinking Frank for his efforts and still a legend in the fans eyes etc etc etc
|
|
By:
Rodgers probably gutted he didn't wait a few months for the Chelsea job
|
|
By:
Lampard looks a bit stressed out there, Chelsea will win nowt this season and a top 4 finish? Well you would have to think that is looking highly unlikely given their performance in the opening 2 games.

By:
You have to give Lampard some leeway, Hazard was an massive loss, possibly best player in league.
|
|
By:
Should have stayed at Derby where he could get away with such tactical errors, learn his craft under not much pressure
He even looked stressed at Derby when it was going slightly wrong, he's going to look like a ghost at Chelsea |

Chelsea fans going crazy
