And initially, meaning with our group alternatives….
Chelsea welcome Brentford to Stamford Bridge on Wednesday night as Premier League motion continues for us.
Kick off is at 7.45pm UK time and you may watch it reside on BT Sport 3.
In some way, Chelsea have been given a 57% win chance, with Brentford solely being given 19%.
Each groups have been in related poor type within the final 5 matches, and Brentford are only one place above Chelsea within the league. Nevertheless, a win wont see Chelsea leapfrog them as a result of they’re 5 factors away from us.
Brentford haven’t gained in six matches, and not too long ago they’ve misplaced to Wolves, Newcastle, and Manchester United.
Nevertheless, based mostly on type general this season, you definitely shouldn’t be betting on Chelsea to win this recreation.
We all know how harmful Brentford might be, and also you solely have to say the identify Ivan Toney and know they’ve extra of a goalscoring risk than us proper now based mostly on current performances.
However for Chelsea it’s a first-rate likelihood to at the least give some younger gamers or fringe gamers some minutes. However to be sincere, I’m not fully satisfied that Frank Lampard will accomplish that. I’m prepared for extra disappointment in that sense at the least.

We all know that there gained’t be any gamers akin to Lewis Corridor or Harvey Vale coming in from the academy, as a result of they performed on Monday night time. So there’s the primary disappointment. I imply, why not use these video games now to at the least let one in every of two of them get some extra first group expertise off the bench?
I believe I do know Lampard’s considering although and actually, are you able to blame him? He’s are available in and misplaced 4 video games in a row, think about if he retains dropping video games and doesn’t get one other win all season?
It’s fairly possible. I believe he believes it would harm his status even additional and due to this fact he’ll lean on the skilled gamers within the squad to try to get some good outcomes going into the remainder of the season. I utterly perceive his mind-set.
However there’s such factor as dangerous expertise and I truly suppose taking part in a few of the children would give us a greater likelihood of getting outcomes. I simply hope we don’t see too many minutes for gamers who’re positively leaving this summer time, then I might be really disillusioned.
The one I actually wish to see get some stable minutes is Carney Chukwuemeka, who might actually have an opportunity to precise himself beginning tomorrow night time. I’d additionally prefer to see Noni Madueke and David Datro Fofana, in addition to begins for Mykhailo Mudryk. It’s an actual likelihood now for Chelsea to precise themselves in additional methods than one.
