The Dugout Discussion – Chelsea vs Swansea

Today’s action concludes with a fitting climax, as we drop in on the champions at Stamford Bridge.

Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea go into the opening day clash with Swansea having won 15 of their 19 home league matches, without suffering defeat.

However, Garry Monk’s side turn up having claimed all three points at Old Trafford on the opening day of last season and will be looking to improve on their performances against the Blues: they shipped nine goals to them last term, suffering 5-0 and 4-2 defeats.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Has is still brilliant. Takes three Swansea to cover and he still almost finds a way through.

    Falcao in for Willian.

        i wrote Costa is too slow FOR haz. meaning 1 for 1 haz is much quicker than costa. thats does NOT mean costa is slow.
        and ive seen costa play from early in brasil, he does have a tendency to saty i the box and not as agile w/ his legs.

        I was talking about the haircuts because they're scanning faces in PES 2016 and i always wonder if the team is going to replicate the haircuts too. If they're good it's better if they're bad haircuts(like Grealish) they look stupid.

      I'll cut him some slack. He is on my team because he attacks and creates scoring opportunities. Sometimes he does it right, sometimes wrong. He gives fpl owners greater chances to get attacking points.
