Same question for me; where are Chelsea’s PSR charges?
You're wasting your time

All these legal proceedings are going to cost millions and are affecting other clubs

Even the PGMOL are up ****s creek
Wanting more money from the clubs

"Refereeing chief Howard Webb 'will announce governing body LOSSES of £900,000' - as he 'prepares to tell clubs' they must increase budgets if they want highest officiating standard"
 
Start Gordon instead of Barnes, but keep the rest of the team. Willock's the safer choice vs Miley and Botman's still coming back, Burn has been solid this season.

We really should be beating these tbh, they struggled yesterday against a Liverpool team who rested most of their players.

Can't argue with this. Gordon back in for Barnes from the start and as long as Schar is fit to start (potential muscle injury) then we should continue going slowly slowly with Botman.

The less the better.... Quite why we want strict psr is beyond me. Newcastle are going well, but the last thing we need is psr getting any more hardball.

The regulator will either help or hinder us and I suspect it will do the latter.

We don’t but similarly we don’t want Chelsea selling themselves their women’s team for £200m to escape punishment when Forest and Everton have had to carry the can for the sake of a few million.

Struggled? They were ahead after about 3 minutes and won 3-1?

Forget Yesterday and look at the table, because it's clear that Chelsea have done as well as Newcastle over 35 games.

I think the Joelinton injury is huge and that's why we're not quite looking right the past couple of games. The dip we had Joelinton was injured, but we're at home, so we have a chance.

I'd be interested to see what the bookies think, but I guess there's very little in it.

Why not? We have a women's team don't we?

Chelsea were poor yesterday. A good move to get the first goal and then 2nd was an lfc error of vvd kicking it against Quansah and then a last minute penalty from a silly pass to no one.

during the rest of the game, despite Neville absolutely creaming himself anytime palmer got the ball, they didn’t do an awful lot. Spell of about 25 mins where we just all over them and they couldn’t touch the ball.

They still look awful defensively and although Lavia and caicedo are starting to show their worth, attack them and their defence and keeper crumble.

Should be a comfortable Newcastle win this

I've been hearing how crap Chelsea are all season, but the table doesn't lie at this point. There's nothing between them and Newcastle, not even goal difference.

We're at home, so I kinda edge towards us, but the loss of Joelinton is huge.

Agree, for a while it looked like it was going to be 2-2 at the end, which is ****e considering they were 2-0 up at home and most of your key players didn't start. Get a goal and Chelsea start falling apart. Neville exhausted all his cum rags with Palmer, but they really weren't good.

So if Chelsea are so ****e why are they on 63 points +21 GD after 35 games? (exactly the same as Newcastle)

Are we ****e too?

Liverpool, with half a team rested and the rest with hangovers, didn’t find it particularly difficult bar palmer. Nunez missed an absolute sitter, Salahs wasn’t much more difficult, so if we put our cup final big boy pants on and the crowd turns up we should be fine. Tino on palmer gives me hope.
