2 back to back away games.
Not an easy place however bad Palace's defense may be.

Need Hazard back for Pedro. Let Willian in there.
Get Matic instead of Cescy.

Palace has lot of pace in Zaha, Townsend, Puncheon. Need Matic & Kante to shield our back 3.

Moses to get a goal against his old team. He wasted so many great chances against Sunderland.

Going for 1-2 <ok>
 
Agree, this one is going to be a more scrappy game. Probably want someone to keep the ball better so willian for pedro and matic back in

I idon't like making predictions, because every time I do it tends to go the other way!

Perhaps what I'm going to do here is say I desperately want our Blues to win, but I'm forecasting a Palace win!

If things go the way of my usual forecasts were bound to win!
 
Do not trouble yourself bm2 we will win this one without a doubt. However I do think Pardew is rather maligned in some circles. If it weren't for his indiscretions at Southampton where he was doing a good job, he may well have been the England manager by now.
 
I mean, can tighten their place at the top, take advantage of stuggling Palace, Costa can bag another goal to regain his place as leading PL scorer rather than share the title with Sanchez.... easy week for the Blues me thinks.

I'll go for 3-1 Chelsea! Cmon the Bluess
 
My only worry today is Zaha,keep him quiet and we should get this one.
I want that record!,must be one of the few we haven't got.COYB'S.
 
yes Zaha on Alonso not looking great.

Costa books his xmas off already <doh>
could be worse.

moss not a great ref. how did McArthur escape yellow for pull on Costa's break away counter.
 
Nice header from Costa and goes to apologize to Conte immediately.
or may be acknowledged Conte's input about Palace's weakness for crosses.

that is the first headed goal for us all season. not surprising because we never lump it forward like Baggies, Spuds, Goons or Manu <whistle>
 
Alonso is one clumsy player.
that was more of a clearance than attempt on target <doh> Hazard had better chance.

Kante is booked as well. Xmas vacation list increasing fast.
Going to be difficult on boxing day.
Would like Chalobah for Kante
 
3 games in 7 days.
3 goals.
3 cleansheets
3 wins.

Not bad.

Batters time now!!
 
A fantastic result - great for the lucky Chelsea few that could get tickets. That's 11 straight league wins in a season and a new Chelsea record. I think we need 14 wins to beat Arsenal's record of 13? straight wins in a single season.

Georgey - teams park the bus against us after our Demolition of Spuds, City.
if we are more clinical and put more than 1 goal - Then teams will open up and our football will be better.

On another note - Jose's title any one? Am not deluded after all <ok>
