Chelsea FanCast Preview Show #819
Stamford Chidge is joined by Jonathan Kydd and Dan Silver to look back at Chelsea's superb performance against Real Madrid in the Champions League semi-final to secure the clubs third Champions League Final appearance and we look ahead to the dress rehearsal against Man City in the Premier League on Saturday.
Sam Inkersole from Football.London joins us to look back at Chelsea's 2-0 victory against Real Madrid on Wednesday night to reach their third Champions' League Final. We discuss Werner scoring, Kante assisting, are delighted for Mount, applaud Havertz's brilliance and Pulisic's timely impact. Oh and don't forget Tommy T for whom due praise is rightly deserved. But what about the Final? Should it go ahead in Istanbul now Turkey is on the Red list? Can it be moved and if so where, and will we be able to get a ticket!!
David Walker from 'Read But Never Red' joins us for the 'Opposition View' and we ask him how he feels about City making a Champions' League Final? Will there be a Champions' League hangover in Saturday's match? Will it have a bearing on the Final? How will Pep set up and how does he see the match going?
We wrap up by previewing the Man City v Chelsea match. How important is it for Chelsea in the context of the run in and the Champions' League Final? What will Tuchel do in terms of team selection and how do we see it?
