How did Calceido play? Was he any good?
Chelsea have spent around 1 BILLION on players so there should be no excuses.
Chelsea should have bought some new players.
"What a delectable medley of footballing splendor"
New season, new players, new coach but same old Chelsea. Wake me up next august since i have better things to do than watch this shit again.
Chelsea and Rome Worst teams in the ��
It is a bit strange, no matter what players Chelsea are buying their football remains boring and they can't score goals. Even prime Messi couldn't help them probably ...
Sterling and Sanchez worst signings ever
@G29176 I thought Werner and Havertz were.
@neumi17 Actually, they were among the best signings.
@Sputnik Any particular reason why ? Both weren't really good in scoring or being a great influence to the game.
@neumi17 Both played an important role in Chelsea's Champions League triumph. As for Sanchez and Sterling, yes, they are really bad.
yes, both to score Avoniyi the legend to continue his goal contribution
It wont be easy for Chelsea. 1X
DO YALL REALLY THINK CHELSEA IS GOING TO WINN THIS IS A WEIRID ASS TEAM
I hope Chelsea wins
chelsea win, jackson and enzo to score
This could be a tricky game for Chelsea who play a Forest side that played well at Arsenal and Man Utd despite losing.Awoniyi could be the Forest danger man.
@Marbella Awoniyi has always been a threat to the big teams in English.
2-2
