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.

      3 points less than the other option. Not bad.

        rooney?

      2. AllINeedIsCoffee

        There were other options 🙂

      Got rid last minute 🙁

      1. TJ_777
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Same last transfer I made will probably only get 4/5 pts tho

    2. Towsor44

      Swapped in for Ivan last minute after a lot of umming and arring

      1. Granville
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 17 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        You did the right thing. Ivanovic, Cahill and Terry will outscore him over the season

  3. theeribert

    Every thing Jose Mourinho does is cringeworthy.

    1. Alan The Llama
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I liked when he was laughing like a maniac.

    2. Tomlette Greggs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      you'd have loved him if he were your team's manager. Fact.

      1. theeribert
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        That is probably true. Majority of my team's fans are calling for our managers' head but I'm still supporting him.

      2. Worzel Gummidge
        11 years, 1 month ago

        if you put 'fact' after a sentence it normally means the opposite. Plus many people would hate him as their manager it is just Chelsea who idolise the buffoon.

    3. ChelseaKTBFF
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      People normally say that about people much better than themselves. Jealousy is a human experience 😉

      1. theeribert
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        I'm sure he's a better manager than me. Not so sure why I would be jealous of him tho.

        1. ChelseaKTBFF
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          And everyone else in the Prem. Fact.

          1. theeribert
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            I won't disagree with that. His personality is what bothers me.

          2. Worzel Gummidge
            11 years, 1 month ago

            Ah another 'fact' comment. Oh look a Chelsea fan.....non shocker.

    4. Cilly Bonnolly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      No it's not. That's only because you don't like him or Chelsea I'm guessing.

  4. Forza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Well, at least it's a guaranteed green arrow next week 😆

    1. Breadbin
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      It's not.

    2. Gorgles
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      ahahh thats one way to think about it

      1. Towsor44
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Yep, don't start to well or you'll get a red next week. From number 1 in the world, the only way is down 🙂

  5. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ

    Hazard c fail 🙁

  6. Alan The Llama

    Great first day of the new season. Don't care about my points.

    1. Holy See
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Thoroughly enjoyable fare. Haz(c) fail, but that game was great fun 🙂

  7. Keno
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Hazard----->Sanchez

    1. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Strap that knee down!

  8. Malcolm Tucker for England …
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    John Terry seems like such a nice fellow

    1. Breadbin
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Nice fellow rhymes with Neanderthal.

    2. ChelseaKTBFF
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Passionate is the word you're looking for. In the worlds of Di Maria's and holding clubs hostage for 300k a week, its a nice trait 😉

      1. Breadbin
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        People that like him all have the same accent.

        • 11 Years

      Liverpool's title to lose now

  11. Judeksi
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Trying to find some positive points here: at least guys like Cedric, Wally and Mane can still surprise me with good results 😛 #noWCyet

  12. Barrier Freeman
    • 14 Years

    Gary Monk = Tactical Genius

    1. TJ_777
      • 11 Years

      Great young manager

  13. Djerbil
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Now watch Jose say something stupid , media as well as lick his foot and attract all attention away from the Fact that Chelsea was shite

    1. Mr Arsenal
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Geoff Shreeves post match interview with Ivan should be good.
      "So Ivan, what was more humiliating. Missing the C1 final or being buttfcked by Montero in public?"

      I love Geoff shreeves

    2. ChelseaKTBFF
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Chelsea was static, but not all that bad. Give credit to Swansea.

  14. Forza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    3 weeks spent on my team, thinking about it every day, and I get 1 point from each of my players.

    Glorious.

    1. ihateramsey2
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      and -1 from coates and 02 from courtois

    2. Theatre_Of_Screams
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Hahaha. I feel you. Why did l go for Panti, Huth and Mings again? Lol, what an awful start.

  15. Malcolm Tucker for England …
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Four week no hazard plan : checkpoint one, clear

    1. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Are you looking to get him in GW4/5? I'm looking at getting rid!

      1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        That would scare me...

    2. Syd.
      • 17 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      +1

  16. DOCTOR J
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone watch Leicester game? Defense good? Mahrez goals fluke or real deal?

  17. Dacra
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Only Mahrez or Albrighton owners done well then?

    1. Tomlette Greggs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      in a nutshell.

    2. HVT
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      This, (maybe Roo/Azpi)

    3. TJ_777
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Gomis owners as well

  18. Syd.
    • 17 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Chelsea just don't look like scoring

    Apart from those 2 lucky ones today they looked more like conceding than scoring

  19. Bertzeiner-m
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    wow this is probably the worst start to a season i have ever had

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Not over yet...

  20. HVT
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Azpi on for 1bap!

  21. Bolivian Seaman
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Ayew was ruddy awesome, gomis should get a lot of service with a midfield like that

    1. Alan Hansen's Emu
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      The MF looks great.

  22. Alan Hansen's Emu
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Swansea looking very good. Highly impressed by Gomis leading the line. One to watch.

    1. brankoz11
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      He looked good but Chelsea didnt look like they were match fit. Montero was primo

  23. Pinky and Brain
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Azpi on 1 bonus, every point counts!

  24. Slam
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Awesome first day.
    Personally finished with a shocking 16 points.
    Who was everyone's player which they were thinking of bringing in heavily and performed well? Not owning 😛
    Mahrez for me 🙁

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Ayew maybe.

    2. Zombie
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Vardy for me..but I brought in Mahrez instead of him so no regrets 😉

    3. ChelseaKTBFF
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Darmian. But got kola instad so still time for me.

  25. Ninja Škrtel
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    31 from 7..

    Kos, Milner, Benteke and Wallcot (c) left

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Top 10K on the way.

    2. Dynamic Duos
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Did you have Mahrez?

      1. Ninja Škrtel
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        yes

  26. Bøwstring The Carp
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Sterling (c) might turn out to be a good punt after all

    1. Tomlette Greggs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      great punt, indeed. good luck!

    2. HVT
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Wish I had went Wally now!

    3. Clintymints
      • 17 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Pulis at home with WBA ain't an easy one though imo

  27. Clintymints
    • 17 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Ref had a good game. I'm sure Jose thinks differently!

    Montero bossed it

    Also on 33 baps from 5 players. A lot better start to the season this year... I'll be 'avin that!

  28. brankoz11
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Guess everyone on FPL is feeling guttered so far about results.. Only Captain Walcott can save me this week!

    I seriously hope some guy who randomised his team doesnt get team of the week..

  29. Shearer & Sutton
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Only 17 points.
    Kos, Özil, Walcott (C), Benteke left.

    1. Tomlette Greggs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      at this rate, if I were you I'd just hope Walcott starts for sure, and not Giroud.

  30. walkman666
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Hahaha. Slow mo replay of red card shows Gomis yowling in pain before he got touched by courtois' leg. Worst part of footie.
