Gameweek 37 match day thread (at the double!)

You would have to imagine it will be a full strength utd team on Wednesday. I hope gabbadini doesn't play and I can get those benteke bench points.

Ya probably full strength Wednesday and a similar team to yesterday then for the last match of the season you'd assume.

Moyes says they have injuries and will be bringing some kids down for the Arsenal game . . . please let Sanchez be fit!!!

76 -4 at the midway point.

The Good. Joshua King yet again, that's 80 pts returned in the last 10 weeks. Sanchez(c), Alonso and Jesus. Feel very fortunate to have 8 pts from Jesus, had a poor game, would gladly take another 8 pts from him midweek though.

The Bad. Lukaku... Held him as thought would surely have picked up some points at home against Watford. Obviously has more important things on his mind, like going though holiday brochures.
Bench Boost. BB has been a real disappointment, 4 points so far from, Pickford, yoshida, JWP and Holgate. Think will struggle to reach 10 pts from it.

The Ugly. Wayne Rooney. Simply for taking Davies clean sheet and potential bonus point.

Whats the odds Ake will feature tonight, now that Chelsea have won the league?

Good chance I'd imagine. Ake, Willian, Loftus-Cheek, Begovic, Zouma, Terry, Batshuayi all may get games tonight.

Alonso is one that I'm expecting to start tonight. If Ake is starting I think it'll be at centre back. Conte has been talking him up and will want to see him in his best position. I think 2 of Alonso, Azpilicueta and Moses will start the game.

Batshuayi is almost certain to start id say, as is Willian who will come in for Hazard or Pedro (probably Hazard given Conte even said he looked tired on Friday).

I've Pedro and hazard would prefer if Pedro started if I could only have 1 of them.

When is the Chelsea presser?

Praying Costa starts after stupidly sticking the armband on him Friday

The match is tonight so doubt there is one at this stage

I'll be delighted if Pedro starts tonight. He was probably first to the bar on Friday night, so hopefully first for the hangover to clear off too. That makes sense, right?

A Spaniard first to the bar?

You must be joking; he didn't get going until 1am!

He was prob only nursing the one pint all night like all the international students here.

He was down the back of the team bus with Cesc and Dave causing a ruckus.

Waiting for the team sheets will be more exciting than most of the remaining matches !

Terry confirmed as starting tonight (ssn)

That has confirmed massive rotation in my eyes
Near full strength final day then
As long as Alonso plays tonight that works for me
I'm well set defensively for 38 and he is my only Chelsea player this week......

I think Terry was always going to get a run out at Stamford bridge to say goodbye but yeah I thought maybe it might have been for last half hour. I suppose in that scenario he'd use up 2 subs as you're almost guaranteed he'll get subbed with a couple of mins to go to get a standing ovation.

It makes him a little more doubtful to start Sunday though. I was potentially going to bring him in for that game. Maybe we'll get a clue from conte before then.

Chances of Costa playing?

My main rival has him Captained

Unlikely IMO. Maybe a sub.

Fingers and toes and everything else crossed so ...
