GUEST: Jeff Borzello, ESPN Insider for College Basketball and Chelsea fan. Follow him at @JeffBorzello on Twitter! Part 1: West Ham United Review Chelsea 2-1 West Ham United, Premier League Monday, March 6th | London Stadium Fabregas was selected again over Matic, but this time the opponents weren't sloppy in possession and tight defensively. Instead, Fabregas had to unlock a physical side with lots of engergy. Up top Pedro has cemented a starting spot as his own and he delivered another assist today, absolutely playing the pass of the match to set up Hazard and the opening goal. This is the stuff of champions and we need to respect it! Man of the Match? N'Golo Kante, duh. Part 2: Social Media Questions What's wrong with Matic? Is this team the most adaptive ever? How terrible is the London Stadium? Will Conte stick to counter-attacking or try to kill teams off? And more! Part 3: Manchester United Preview Chelsea vs. Manchester United, Premier League Monday, March 13th | Stamford Bridge No Zlatan, no problem? Both teams have scored plenty of goals in the competition, but Mourinho's men play the week before in Europa League. Will Conte continue to rotate players or start to stick to his preferred Premier League lineup?

GUEST: Joe Tweeds, @JoeTweedie Part 1: Swansea City Review Chelsea 3-1 Swansea City, Premier League Saturday, February 25th | Stamford Bridge The big headlines from this match were Cesc Fabregas starting alongside N'Golo Kante, Pedro continuing his run of fine form, and Diego Costa finishes off a great move started by Eden Hazard. We tackle the Fabregas vs. Matic debate and question why Chelsea fans are so bitter after a 3-1 win? Are fans disillusioned with FIFA scores these days and forget that the Premier League is the best league in the world? We wrap up with our Man of the Match poll and the Top 6 standings in the table. Part 2: Social Media Questions Questions from social media include Pedro versus Willian, is Cesc playing like Lampard, why is John Terry learning Portuguese, and what would our starting eleven players be if we could only choose 3 senior team players? Part 3: West Ham United Preview Chelsea at West Ham United, Premier League Monday, March 6th | London Stadium As we preview Chelsea’s match against West Ham United, we look at recent results against Watford, West Brom, Southampton, Manchester City, and Middlesbrough. Bilic Seems to be barely hanging onto his job and some key matchups to watch will be Hazard/Pedro versus their outside backs, Luiz versus Carroll if he’s healthy, and even Kante versus Lanzini. The Hammers aren’t in great form so this is another chance for Chelsea to extend their lead. The big lineup question will of course be whether or not Cesc Fabregas starts again… KTBFFH Contact Us Twitter: https://twitter.com/LondonBluePod Instagram: https://instagram.com/LondonBluePod Facebook: https://facebook.com/LondonBluePod Website: http://londonisbluepodcast.com iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/london-is-blue-chelsea-fc/ This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/londonbluepod/support Learn more about your ad choices.
