16:45 Kick off
Feels Deja Vu like from a few months ago. But will it end up the same way?
It will. Chelsea have been poor of late barring a couple of results.
Nice jinx attempt.
Have to agree a comfortable 2-0 to the Dippers'.
Bluecafe for a couple of hours.
Everyone go and get that dusty old Lukaku shirt from your wardrobe and give the man your love today.

141.... what's so special about winning one in 141.
Oh yeah, well check out this jinx…4-0 Chelsea!
This place has been Bluecafe for a while. If it’s not you it’s City. Anything to stop the old enemy.
The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.
The good people of Redcafe know you must be stopped.
You’d think the devil worshippers would be the bad guys.
@duffer @WeePat @TheMagicFoolBus what’re your thoughts on the team Tommy Tuch’s should pick? You’ve given us three very difficult games this season and been somewhat unfortunate at times. I don’t think we like playing against a back three and wing backs.
Are Kovacic and Kante likely to play?
Are Kovacic and Kante likely to play?
Kova is injured thanks to the butcher Dan James.
Mendy, Christensen, Silva, Rudi, James, Alonso, Jorgi, Kante, Mount, Werner, Havertz.
But seeing Lukaku start wouldn't shock or dissapoint me.
Why are the Whingers getting an extra day’s rest compared to Chelsea?
I swear, man, Liverpool and the authorities. Name a better duo.

The FA has devalued the FA Cup by placing it before the League has even finished.
Agreed. Don’t like it at all.
Can't look past Liverpool unfortunately, they've got the extra days rest and played with 12 men seemingly most of the season. Get your money on zero yellow cards again for them today? Our new PE ownership doesn't exactly inspire me with confidence..., may as well enjoy the final anyway.
Anyone remember when the Cup final coverage would start about 9 am all the way through to kick off?
I miss those days
I miss those days
Yip, lots of silly slots and interviews and Abide with me ... great days.
Come on Chelsea.
Exciting
C'monnl Chelsea!!! Today is the day Big Rom finally shines!
It's a 16:45 kick off and the coverage starts at midday so still nearly 5 hours of build up on BBC one.
well put.And yet the Satanic Temple are actually the voice of reason and humanity...

ill be strolling down the Fulham road today that’s for sure, meeting my mates and having a drink.
This is why I don’t get the whole, useless trophy nonsense with the United fanbase. I’m a bit too old to stay in & watch it all but I can still remember how it was to watch the coach driving in , then the players on the pitch etc.
I’d love for United to be involved in days like this again.
It consists of MOTDx, Jermaine Jenas and special musical/comedian guests for the most part.
Yuck.
It's always been a massive cringe-fest. It isn't any worse than it used to be, you just care less.
I only want to know if Chelsea have won after the final whistle. Otherwise, couldn't give a shit.
Played before the final round of league fixtures. Disappointing. Is this the first time in a while?
It can't be at CL final weekend nor after it, so this weekend is the only chance.
Two top teams, should be a good game ….Chelsea to win on pens
This will be the 3rd season in a row where it has happened.
Come on you blues
Don't be poooooos
I hate yous
Don't be poooooos
I hate yous
Agreed
The winter break that everyone used to chirp on about like it was the best thing ever has caused this fixture to be played in the penultimate gameweek.
Why couldn't it be played after the season finished? It's a one-off game.
Nailed on Liverpool win. No point even watching.
Chelsea are deader than tank tops
Chelsea are deader than tank tops
I'm not sure I could be any less interested in the game (other than to hope, probably in vain) that Liverpool get beaten. A controversial goal would be the funniest...
Can't be played on the same day as the Champions League final which is the Saturday after the league ends now so it would have to be the Saturday after which is 2 weeks after the season ends.
