I've got around 20 points since the last update on points so don't take that as gospel. I should imagine 150+ will be sweet though.

Up the fucking Spurs.
 
Fiorentina just 3 days before this, will be interesting.
Didn't realise this. Even more reason to pick Lloris in this final then. Natural squad rotation...

10/2 Liverpool (A) - Lloris
19/2 Fiorentina (H) - Vorm
22/2 West Ham (H) - Lloris
26/2 Fiorentina (A) - Vorm
1/3 Chelsea in the final - Lloris

By my reckoning, those fixtures make the goalkeeping selection easy. Though I'd be tempted to start Hugo in the first (home) Fiorentina game to get us off to the best start possible.

For those curious, Chelsea's 2nd leg of their CL game against PSG isn't until the week after the cup final so you'd have thought they will be better rested. However, their match against Leicester (which was going to be on the same weekend as the cup final) has been postponed... maybe it'll get moved to midweek, which would be ideal for us.
 
Stick the second team in that. I don't even give a fuck if that fucks up our Euro League campaign...a final is a final and I went our best XI fit and ready for it.
We're going to have to do the most unspursiest of things, and get the tie wrapped up in the first leg! :adelol:
Absolutely no way the first team will be flying out to italy 3 days before a cup finals surely!

Agreed.

Vorm
Chiriches - Dier - Kaboul - Davies
Stambouli - Dembele
Soldado - Paulinho - Townsend
Adebayor​

Fiorentina second line-up. Fuck it

That team would get battered. Chiriches and Soldado on the right hand side?? Thats got Lennons name written all over it, but he hasn't had a look in for ages. Also id go with Capoue over Dembele, to keep it tight at the back.

We have no one else. Cup final is far more important
 
Don't forget - a cup final offers the best opportunity for crying fans.

Just picture it... Chelsea scum in tears. Man, woman and child. Fuck 'em all.

green = start final
orange = start against fiorentina and on the bench for the final
blue = start against fiorentina

The rest, either start or on the bench for fiorentina, i reckon. Providing theres no injuries i reckon it'll go something like that.

We've got 27 players there, surely we can manage ?
