    agreed about defence comparison.

    what about offence & midfield?

    we have Payet's mentor back, Kante in midfield & no Mikel..

    how can it be score draw??

    CS win for us.

    Kante starting team follows shortly. Batshuayi is on the bench.
    West ham give debuts to three summer incomings. Arthur Masuaku, Havard Nordtveit and Andre Ayew all start.

    West Ham are clearly going to play hoofball for lurch through the middle, predicable!

    That's it I'm off to the pub, just cancelled my virgin sports package as the bundle was costing £135 per month. Will look at Sky for a cheaper option if we start season well, if not then stuff em'

    Costa won't finish a game this season if this new rule is properly enforced.

    Anyone else a bit confused as to how Costa avoided a second yellow?

    our defense makes me so nervous - every time ball is pumped into the box.

    West Ham were pony... Should have won this game far more comfortably than you did. probably deserved on general play but Costa shouldn't be on the pitch to score winner so maybe draw would be fair.

    That old Chelsea luck remains, penalty ,late late goal by a player who should not have been on the pitch.

    Perhaps because it wasn't a red card offence?

    You see them given in fairness. Not being deemed worthy of a yellow is just bemusing given what others were booked for.
