What a defensive lineup by Chelsea.
I was hoping Thua would start over Kroos. Can't believe Carlo is playing him as nr. 6 instead of Thua

As poor as Havertz has been. I think he should have started to provide some sort of physicality in that attack.

Kvaratskhelia as the false 9 will be interesting.

Too offensive lineup without proper DM. Chelsea will punish our weaknesses with their superior physicality

Felix and Sterling you meant?
He is talking about midfield. We have not had a healthy Kante all year and Kovacic has been playing with a knock most of the season Healthy Kante, Kovacic, and Enzo should be pretty stout in midfield.

But yes, our frontline is not very good.

Let's face it he's not recovered from the WC. Another reason why having it in the middle of the season was so stupid

Poor mascots look as if they're being forced to smile for the cameras, bless 'em.

Some comeback for Thiago Silva, been out for last two months and thrown straight back in.

That Chelsea lineup looks decent tbh. Well on paper. Looks like it could cause Madrid a few problems

Huge chance for Chelsea.

This will be on for them quite a bit

If Madrid get through, would they face city at home or away first?

Some of these Madrid lads are mad. Playing passes that aren’t even on, and getting them inch perfect

The French ref books two French players under 7 minutes. Beware Benz & Kanté.
