Stamford Chidge is joined by Jonathan Kydd and Dan Silver to look ahead to Chelsea’s opening match of the new season against Crystal Palace.
Sam Inkersole from Football.London joins us to discuss Chelsea’s victory over Villareal in the UEFA Super Cup final, the signing of Romelu Lukaku and the debacle over the Matthew Harding Lower meaning 908 supporters cannot go to Saturday’s game.
In part two we welcome back Chris Hambling from Back of the Nest for our ‘Opposition View’. Chris gives his thoughts on new manager Patrick Viera, the new palace signings including Marc Guehi and Connor Gallagher, his expectations for Palace’s season and how he sees Saturday’s match going.
In part three we preview Chelsea v Crystal Palace with our views on how big an issue is the lack of match fitness and sharpness; how big a loss will Ziyech and Kante be; the importance of hitting the ground running and how we see the match going.
