Chelsea FanCast Preview Show #531

Stamford Chidge is joined by Jonathan Kydd and Martin Wickham to discuss this week's Chelsea news, look at today's press conference and look ahead to Chelsea v Southampton on Saturday.


We look back at Chelsea players performances in the recent International matches. Are International breaks more trouble than they're worth. We also discuss the Ian Maatsen's loan to Charlton and the infernal Project Big Picture.


Liam Twomey from The Athletic joins us to report on today's Press Conference with the latest injury updates and everything that Frank Lampard had to say


Steve Grant from Total Saints Podcast joins us in 'The Opposition View' to preview the Chelsea v Southampton match from the Saints perspective. How is Southampton's form; are the fans happy with Hasenhuttl, what do they think of ex-Blues Oriel Romeu and Ryan Bertrand and what does Steve think of Theo Walcott returning to St Mary's.


We wrap up with our own preview discussing what the likely team and information will be. Will Frank pick Kepa or Caballero; who replaces Silva in central defence; who starts up front and will Mount and Havertz both start.
