Chelseas accounts going to be frozen?

Players will have to catch the bus there

BBC doing a combined team thingy, i was hard pushed to pick any Chelsea player, so gave a token place to Havertz in midfield alongside Fab and Thiago.

[Shaggy]

Havertz is ****e imo

Really?

I'd have Kante in a heartbeat. Fab, Thiago and Kante would be the best midfield 3 in the world

I gave two token places to Rudiger and Kante But in all honesty, currently I would only have Kante in a combined team.

[Scratch]

He's not brilliant in mine either, but I'd keep our back 5, and a Mo/Jota/Mane front three, and Fab and Thiago are sure fire picks...left me one spot and I plumped for Kai, cos there is a player hidden in there under the weight of Tuschel's methods.

An on-form Kante would get into our best 11, no doubts.

Are we allowed 14 on the bench hahahha

I am really excited for this one, but I can't shake a slightly bad feeling that starting Kelleher might be a mistake. Not that I see him ****ing up or anything, but Alisson really is just an incredible keeper who very often keeps us in games by saving stuff he has no right saving. I get that Kelleher has earned it too, but this is a cup final and Chelsea are a good team. In some kind of one-on-one situation for example, you can almost rely on Alisson somehow pulling a worldie, with Kelleher I'm not so sure.

Fair ****s to Klopp if we win it with or even because of Kelleher though.

[Fosterbloke]

If I had to pick two it would Rudiger and Kante but in reality it's just Kante that would take Fabinho's place and that's only if I had to take one.

Their keeper is excellent but not better than Alisson. Rudiger is tougher and scores more goals than Matip but I reckon Konate will be the equal of him in a year or two.

[Rigadon]

I'm guessing there'll be lots of Ukrainian flags in the Liverpool end?

[ChesterDave]

I hope so. I also kinda hope that someone hacks the PA system to play the Ukranian Anthem

[Scratch]

Be interesting to see if Chelsea fans bring any Ukrainian flags, even tho it goes against their club ownership.

[Shaggy]

Imagine Newcastle fans of all people rocking up with Ukraine flags when they play Chelsea in a couple of weeks
