'Pulis on my back!' Chelsea FanCast #369

Stamford Chidge is joined by Plains of Almeria writer and tactics wizard Joe Tweeds and Chelsea supporter and football agent Seb O'Mahoney to discuss Chelsea's tough win against West Brom. On the show tonight we’ll be talking Diego Costa – just how immense is he for Chelsea and what the hell do we do if he gets suspended or injured. In part two we’ll break down why it was so hard to break down West Brom; we ask was Conte showing tactical flexibility or has the 3:4:3 been found out and can the winning run continue and is it too early to talk about winning the title. In part three, we look ahead to this Wednesday’s match against Sunderland and even further ahead to what might happen in the January transfer window. In part four we have three emails to test the brains trust of the Chelsea FanCast. Chelsea FanCast #369: 'Pulis on my back!'

He also learns to referee himself, experiencing first-hand the speed and scrutiny that come with every call.Through defining matches and controversial decisions, he examines the influence of VAR, how referees judge fouls, and the excruciatingly fine margins between control and chaos.And he looks into the issues between Chelsea and Anthony Taylor with a little help from Chidge, JK and Dan Silver!You can purchase the book on Amazon here
