I truly hate this team. Most of the time more than I hate Arsenal.

I have this image replaying in my mind the time Liverpool were second and Chelsea (at the time were managed by Mourinho and We're top 4) they literally just parked the bus and banked on Willian maybe breaking for it once (which he did). Obviously very different circumstances now, but I am expecting the same. I expect them to play with 5/6 midfielders and do nothing but congest our play. I don't even expect them to play to win, I'm expecting them to play to draw for the sake of it. I would love to get a couple of early goals and really nip this in the butt.

What makes my stomach turn is the thought that we get the result tonight and Chelsea packs it in against Leicester. God I hate this team so much as I write this.

He's still the one we have to close down. Shut him down and they are half the shit team they've been this season.

Don't know if it's been mentioned but do you remember chelsea fans calling hazard and fabregas "rats"? i just hope that comes back to haunt them.

I hate this lot more than any other club - they are a graceless, classless outfit who won the Russian lottery and tarnished this league with their racist, philistine philosophy. I hope we do them to tonight - I don't care whether it's scrappy or beautiful, we just need to win.

Hate to be that person, but I really would not be surprised if Begovic had a worldie against us. He's a good keeper and if I recall correctly he doesn't like us, or at least turned us down once.

And he's probably got a season ticket at the king power:(

Mason just doesn't have the defensive nous to play in Dier's role, he and Bentaleb were major contributors in us leaking goals last season with their piss poor defending. Mason is clearly more suited playing as the guy next to a DM or in behind Kane.

I agree, that's why I said in the case of Dembele and Mason partnering each other in the middle of midfield Mason should play ahead of him, with Dembele dropping into something more akin to Dier's position.

Not that it fuckin matters now.

Dier's in. Good stuff. Let's murder these pricks.
