Match Day Thread Chelsea v Everton

[StanDMan]

Need the 3 points.
Should be straight forward for us.If Zouma is back, we can nullify Everton's pace.
Not sure whether Cahill can stick to Naismith, Lukaku et al.

I'm certainly not expecting it to be straight forward but at home and given the respective league positions and form, we should win. Excepting a narrow 2-1.

Hopefully Fabregas will be back as Everton's recent defensive record has been good so we could do with more creative players available.

Would certainly be nice to get 7 points from the 3 games we've been without Costa (and Fab for at least 2). Will also be keeping a keen eye on proceedings at the Britannia.

1-1

 

[Bodinki]

Im going 1-1 too.

Remy and Naismith.....strikers ahoy!

 

[bluemoon2]

Every time I read we've got an easy one coming up, I get bad nerves. Bradford/Spuds etc

 

[george the blue]

1-1.

Everton usually give us a good game, tgeyre out of the slump now too.

 

[Chelsea Pensioner]

Thisq will be an important test for us. We opened a gap, lost it opened it again. now we need to show we can keep our noses in front.

 

[Tobes]

I'd bite your hand off for a 1-1 !

We'll be up against it tonight, my hope is that Lukaku will be absolutely stoked for his first game back at the Bridge, and if Lennon plays we can hit you on the counter

 

[Drogs]

With Costa and Cesc back along with Everton's form this season there should be no excuses, however never take Everton lightly.

Costa's out

Costa's out

Thought he'd done his 3rd on Sat! Hopefully Remy plays then as Drogba has looked a passenger all season.

Nope, it's his 3rd tonight mate.

 

[chelsea - over 100 years of history]

Yeah no Costa but Fabregas should be playing. Hopefully Remy starts. Drogba is good off the bench if we need to play the Yoonited way

 

[Bodinki]

I have a really odd feeling that we are going to draw tonight 1-1, but our disappointment will be offset somewhat by City losing 1-0 to Stoke.

Just a premonition I have.

[george the blue]

What kind of reception do you think lukaku will get guys?

What kind of reception do you think lukaku will get guys?

Mixed to negative
He wont be cheered because he never really played for us and therefore achieved nothing of note.
And there will always be a subsection of douches who will boo him.....because he never played for us and achieved nothing of note.

I don't think anyone has any ill feeling towards him but I expect he'll be booed a bit in a pantomime villain kind of way.
