Chelsea v West Ham United - Pellegrini's last stand?
Right then.
After another dismal performance (for 70 minutes), we return to action at 'The Bridge'.
Pellegrini has to do without Diop for this one. It's almost impossible for him to select Roberto, but I imagine he will.
Side I'd like:
Roberto
Fredericks - Rice - Ogbonna - Masuaku
Noble - Sanchez
Yarmolenko - Antonio - Anderson
Haller
Martin, Balbuena, Zabaleta, Cresswell, Fornals, Snodgrass, Ajeti
Again, not much we can do but select the same players. We have no other striker, no other left winger, no other right winger, no decent CM.
We can't defend, so may as well go all out for a win & take our chances.
Antonio providing much needed support for Haller will help us massively.
Chelsea 3-1 West Ham

When do we play Southampton?
Away on December 14 @ 17.30
But we'll still lose, obvs.
Didn't watch the Spurs game and probably won't watch this. Sad.
We have been out run in EVERY SINGLE GAME THIS season
Shambolic
A club like Burnley’s results don’t just happen by magic. It’s down to sheer hard work. And lots of it.
I really hope that Pelle is gone by the game, but I guess I can only dream on...
Pelle in charge= Chelsea field day win, 4 or 5 -0...
As all teams place a high value on stats etc it’s obvious that our opponents all know that we will be a soft easy touch. It therefore is mind boggling that Pelle doesn’t seem to be aware of it.
The same might also be said of Haller.
Didn't Payet claim that he was misled by the board about their ambition? Perhaps Anderson has seen Perez, Hernandez, Carroll, Adrian and Obiang released and not sufficiently replaced and thought, 'this isn't what I was sold'. Perhaps Haller was promised a charge for European football and has now realised that the squad is a long way short of that.
Not much in the way of #nextlevel about that
-------- Roberto/Martin -------
- Fredericks - Rice - Ogbonna - Masuaku
- Snodgrass - Noble - Sanchez - Holland
---------- Haller -- Antonio -------
Or that team but in a different formation (although the formation will need to be different to what we've currently been using as it's not working).
Subs: Roberto/Martin, Reid, Cresswell, Yarmolenko, Wilshere, Fornals, Anderson
What's happened to Ben Johnson? He was looking to be pushing on the door at the start of the season but hasn't even been making the bench for the last 2 months.
I am actually only half joking about this :whistle:
