[Paolo10]

Very strong team (except Trippier)
And Lamela on the bench

Have a night off, would you?

You’re the one spamming anyone who says anything about Trippier

Our crest is much classier than Chelsea's.

We've got the best there is imo, extremely happy with the change that was made to it some years ago. So clean and classy

I am right in thinking it’s a VAR match?

It is

 

[Paolo10]

Aurier almost hattrick hero injured?

Aurier nowhere...

Maybe there's something in the fact that Tranmere are League 2, Chelsea are Premier League and this is a Semi-Final London derby? Plus rotation.

Yes, be interesting to see how Chelsea get away with their dirty shittery with that, I always remember the Ashley Cole karate kick should have been straight red on Robbie Keane that didn't even get booked, Cole got in the refs face arguing it wasn't even a foul, they used to get away with so much shit just by moaning.

there's me thinking it was punishment for not getting a hat trick

Aurier nowhere...

Still on cloud 9

Shame we couldn't get him, I find it weird that more young English talent isn't banging down our door considering how many players Poch has made England players.

We'd never be able to get him anyway. Same goes with Foden, Sancho(a few yrs ago), RLC, Diaz, Mount, etc. City, Chelsea, Arsenal, United, & Liverpool wont sell there promising young players to us when we're competing with them at the top of the Prem. The only chance we'd have is if we go in before they sign pro contracts and at that point, their clubs would offer far more than we would.

Let’s hope we don’t gave any of that nasty wind to throw us off our game.

 

[Paolo10]

He didn't even get punished for a hat-trick of foul throws!

They're probably mates with KWP.

Or grass.

Big call to pick Gazzaniga over 'Ugo, but I've been so impressed every time he's played. Think he has a chance of taking over when Lloris leaves/retires.

Good team though. COYS!!

Why am I here? ?

No Lucas on the bench?

 

[Col_M]

Have Sky invited a simpleton to represent Chelsea? Oh no, it’s Joe Cole talking like a 5 year old pikey.

 

[Tafspur]

No Lucas on the bench?

Injured against Tranmere
