Chelsea FanCast Preview Show #880 Mar 04, 2022

Show notes

Stamford Chidge, Jonathan Kydd and Tony Glover look ahead to Chelsea's match against Burnley on Saturday and look back at our win against Luton in the FA Cup last Wednesday.

Liam Twomey from The Athletic joins us in part one to discuss the 3-2 win against Luton Town in the FA Cup on Wednesday. A shocking 1st half with Saar and Kenedy poor, but a better 2nd half where Lukaku and Werner both scored.

We catch up on today's press conference where the press asked questions of Thomas Tuchel he couldn't answer: the impact of the news that Roman Abramovich is selling Chelsea; Marina Granovskaia's future; Tuchel's future; transfer plans; derailing the season; out of contract players oh and we found out that Azpilicueta is out injured.

We wrap up part one by answering some of the questions we have about Chelsea's impending sale. Did Roman have to sell? Who are the potential buyers? What must the new buyers do to get the supporters on-side?

In part two, Adam Dennett of the No Nay Never podcast joins us for the 'Opposition View'. We ask him what he thinks about Abramovich selling Chelsea? Burnley's recent form and can they avoid relegaton? Should they have sold Chris Wood to Newcastle? How will Dyche set up and how does Adam see it going and what is his prediction?

In part three, Chidge, JK and Tony give their preview of the Burnley v Chelsea match. Chidge gives his Team selection and we discuss Chelsea's record at Burnley; their ability to hurt Chelsea and the importance of finishing chances off and putting the game beyond Burnley's reach, as well as our predictions for the match.

We round up the show with a discussion about Roman Abramovich's incredible legacy in his 20 years of owning the club.

On the show tonight, in part one, we look at Tuchel’s team selection, discuss a game of 2 Halves, of 2 halves and 2 halves. We ask why can’t Chelsea finish and bemoan our luck with decisions?

Ask does Chelsea have a Wembley hoodoo with 5 out of our last 6 finals lost? And with Roman Abramovich and Chelsea in the news all week for all the wrong reasons we ask what on earth is going on?

In part three we preview Chelsea’s FA Cup 5th round tie with Luton on Wednesday. Suggest Thomas Tuchel’s Team selection for the The Kerry Dixon Derby, find out what we know about Luton? And wrap up with how we see it going and prediction

Chelsea FanCast Preview Show #878 Feb 25, 2022

Show notes

Stamford Chidge, Jonathan Kydd and Alex Churchill look ahead to Chelsea's Carabao Cup Final against Liverpool on Sunday and recap the Champions League win against Lille this week.

Adam Newson from Football.London joins us in part one to discuss the 2-0 win against Lille on Tuesday. A good win, good performance and the pressing and fluidity is back. Havertz v Lukaku is the case proven? Pulisic on the score sheet; Mendy and the defence imperious and Kante’s twin is back! Adam also reports back on Thomas Tuchel's press conference today where he answered questions on selection for Sunday's final? Will he be crazy enough to put James on the pitch, will it be Havertz rather than Lukaku and Mendy or Kepa? And Chelsea's Cup winning mentality –is uit down to Tuchel's "trust yourself, free your mind, release the tension, less details" approach and do Chelsea play better when underdogs?

In part two, Chidge, JK and Alex give their preview of the Carabao Cup Final. Chidge gives his Team selection and we ask surely Havertz has to start? What about Mount? Jorginho back or stay with Kante and Kovacic? Mendy or Kepa? We look at the League cup record against Liverpool – do we have the edge and will our hunt for the trophy be helped by Kelleher starting in goal, for Liverpool and Jota and Firmino out injured?

We wrap up by asking just how important is winning the Carabao Cup and how do we see it going & give you our predictions.

On the show tonight, in part one, we look at Tuchel’s team selection, some below par performances at a windy Selhurst Park and Hakin Ziyech saving the day.

Liam Twomey from The Athletic joins us in part one to look back at the Club World Cup semi-final against Al-Hilal. A case of Deja Vu where Chelsea dominated, couldn't make it count and then let the opposition back in to the game. Kepa kept us in it again and at least Lukaku scored but...Looking ahead to the final, will Kepa or Mendy start and how crucial is it that Thomas Tuchel has made it out there having recovered from Covid-19?

A special 'Opposition View' tonight as we are joined by Felipe Vexx and Alex Woodhams, one Brazilian and one Englishman, both Chelsea supporters. They give us the inside track on Palmeiras, their history, their fans, their rivals as well as their key players, style of play and how they can cause problems for Chelsea as they give us their prediction of how it will go and what the score will be.

In part three, Chidge, JK and Dayne give their preview of the Chelsea v Palmeiras match. Chidge gives his Team selection and we ask will it be 3 or 4 at the back, Kepa or Mendy and will Lukaku start again?
