As long as we don't allow ourselves to be hampered by the occasion we should bring home the bacon. The last thing we want is a boar draw, or have someone like N'dombele playing - we don't want that lardon the pitch, or worse, and do something rasher, like pick Beckham.
If they go in front I'm confident Kane will pull our irons out of the fire and we should come away schinken of roses.
It'll be sweet, like scones with cream and jamón.

Apart from son that is a depressing bench in terms of attackers. Not a lot there to change the game if needed. Hence need for creative midfielder. Basically 7 defensive players on the bench.
Forster, Doherty, Sessegnon, Emerson, Sanchez, Lenglet, Bentancur, Skipp, Son
Which is why he doesn't get to pick the team
Chelsea never looked good except against us which drives me freaking crazy.
Go as full strength as possible for this one, no unnecessary rotation and make the required changes to rest and rotate vs Fulham.
Lloris
Emerson Romero Dier Davies Perisic
Bissouma Hojbjerg
Kulusevski Kane Son
Sonny loves a goal against this lot. Richarlison deserves a start but Sonny has a special relationship with their fans and I think that's just the fuel he needs to snap back into action. Regardless of how Sonny does tell Richarlison he starts vs Fulham

We are due a win there. Last games there were an abomination
need to win the next two going into the city game. a win puts us 6 points ahead of chelsea which is massive as you think they will sort their shit out at some point so need to stretch that cushion out. hopefully west ham come out and have a go at home which will suit us.
hopefully richarlison gets his well deserved start now.

Fixed.I love youranecdoteshamecdotes.
With Richy doing cartwheels the length of the pitch!!
Dead pig, dead horse, same wheelhouse.
I'd rather we get the Ukrainian lad at Atalanta if we're in for an AM, but I never underestimate a player's self-confidence/self-belief in regards to form.
It was but we have a decent record at their new ground to be fair.
Since they’ve been at the Circus bowl, we have played them 7 times and won 4.
Hopefully after tonight it will be played 8 won 5.
There were days this fixture was a 3 points guarantee. the 4-0 at the Lane several years ago was the most dominating display of football I've seen from us. Last 4-5 years we choked a bit against their rugby sides, I hope Conte has them up for it
If only it were that easy.
I think we are always up for it. Different of course to bring good enough to overcome whatever the challenge.
