Well. What a disappointment. No Fulham upset (a draw itself was not the likely result but feels a letdwon) and no big money goals. Thought Chelski had it in them even before their spending spree.
Back to the drawing board, Potter.
I guess big money doesn't always win you games
Anyhow, with an overhauled team I really didn't see Chelsea winning a Friday night game because team chemistry is lacking here and some of the key players that can help the Blues change the game are out injured...and not until the likes of Kante, Pulisic and others get back, Chelsea will have to dig deep.
Odds on Chelsea still aren't dropping, after all the money they have spent they are still at almost 1.6 at home against Fulham.
I honestly feel that odds on Chelsea and Liverpool winning are unrealistically high this week, combined they are at 3 to 1.
Bookies know too well that these big teams don't fare well against the small teams, and with a Fulham team determined to stay above this Chelsea team... It was never going to be easy for the boys.
On the other hand Liverpool here should be a winner as they have a chance to challenge for a top four finish thanks to their games in hand and this could be a big motivator for the team to put in a good fight. My prediction REDS win 2-0.
