Will Chelsea want to win on Sunday?

[gods_homeboy]

Is it any better or worse than the world club cup comp?
They have a new coach coming in. Players will want to make an impression. Others will put themselves in shop window
They have some very talented players just they keep choosing basket case managers/coaches ( 6 in 4 years)
We underestimate them at our peril. Sure RLB and Xhaka will be aware

The money they got from the World Club cup to the europa league/conf is night and day

The "Liam Bridcutt derby". I can't believe more isn't being made of this.

If nothing else à draw against Chelsea will ensure they can’t get above us unless they win by a cricket score

What apart from winning it last season?

Aye but apart from that !

Alonso could galvanize them or they could be on the beach, who knows.

Squeaky bum time with the scum breathing down our necks

Fulham have a better home record than us this season. Huge swing and luck needed for them to get Europe.

Imagine they will want to end on a high.

I could care less about the Mags just focus on ourselves and if we do our job right then we might be in Europe and if not finishing as low as 9th.

If you win Europa cup it is 5m in prize money , yes less than WCC however win europa and you qualify for CL which is worth a minimum of à further 20m
Maybe less but not night and day

If we draw and mags win by 1 they go above us ?-or am I missing something re the cricket score score ?

Everton and the mags can still get 8th,the mags goal difference is 2 goals better.Surely the unthinkable won't happen.

I am sure Xabi will be giving them a kick up the arse, especially if they don't turn up against Spurs.

They got £85m for winning the club world cup so you could call 3x the prize money night and day

Fuck them

Also playing in the wcc didn't put financial restrictions on you like Europa league/conf will do

Doubt it, he's not going to be there next weekend apparently. Introduced to the crowd tomorrow night v Spurs then he's away on holiday according to a Chelsea lad I know.

Well my search engine suggest Chelsea got 40m
Not to be sniffed at
Have to agree to disagree

He doesn't start until 1st July.

Also see post #33 which backs my point of night and day

Or you can agree that I was correct with the prize money

Fulham still have something to play for

Still could get 8th with a 3-5 goal win and every result going their way.

Not with that goal difference.
