Stamford Chidge is joined by Jonathan Kydd and Liam Twomey, ESPNs Chelsea correspondent to look back at Saturday's match against Man Utd.On the show tonight we’ll be discussing the fall-out from the bust up on the benches. Was Marco Ianni classless? Did Mourinho manipulate the situation or was it an understandable reaction and were Chelsea fans really classless in chanting ‘Fuck Off Mourinho’?In part two we give some credit to Mourinho’s tactics; worry about Eden Hazard; despair about Morata; question Chelsea’s defence and offer a tribute to Matthew Harding who died 22 years ago today.In part three, we have four excellent emails for Jonathan to read out and in part four we have a roundup of Chelsea supporter news and an interview with Chris Barnett who has produced the “Bobby Tambling 202” film celebrating the career of Bobby Tambling with contributions from Frank Lampard, Kerry Dixon, Ron Harris and others. We’ll also have a competition to win a DVD of the film signed by Bobby Tambling. These are extremely rare as only 25 have been made, so this is a very special prize.To view the film on-line go to www.chelseafan12.com and go to the videos section, pay 2.99 pounds and will be available to view for 5 days.

Stamford Chidge is joined by Chelsea legend Kerry Dixon to pick up from last weekend's victory over Arsenal and look ahead to Sunday's match against Newcastle.Kerry and Chidge ponder the exciting start to Chelsea's season but err on the side of patience as to where it might take the side with question marks about the defence. Morata's goal will do wonders for his confidence but it was Alonso and Hazard's cameo which caught the eye. Chidge asks what does Chelsea need to do to keep Eden Hazard - perhaps making him Captain?Looking ahead to Newcastle on Sunday, they have been something of a bogey side for the Blues with our last win at St James' Park coming in 2011.Hopefully Hazard will start in what Kerry expects to be much the same team selected for the Arsenal match. Chidge makes the case for Kovacic starting in place of Barkley while conceding that the latter has made a good start to the season.Either way Chidge and Kerry feel Chelsea will have enough to dispatch the Geordies.

Stamford Chidge is joined by Chelsea Legend Kerry Dixon to look back on the disappointing draw against Huddersfield and look ahead to the last league match of the season against Newcastle.Chidge and Kerry ask why did Antonio Conte make 6 changes to the team that played so well in beating Liverpool? Against Liverpool the 3:5:2 worked; Bakayoko, Cahill, Moses looked good and with Giroud on form surely they didn;t need a rest.Why do we find it hard to break down stubborn teams like Huddersfield? Is it our inability to finish that has cost us again or is it squad depth? Has Kerry seen a more bizarre goal than Alonso’s.Although Conte has said that the decision on his future will be made after the FA Cup final, did he shoot himself in the foot against Huddersfield and will he go even if he makes top 4 and wins FA CupWith the draw against Huddersfield being a massive disappointment having had our hopes raised after beating Liverpool, should the traditional 'lap of appreciation' after the last home game been held after the Liverpool match on Sunday when more supporters would have stayed?Looking ahead to the Newcastle game, is it now mission impossible, but we beat Newcastle and can Brighton beat Liverpool? Will Conte play his best team and will they go for it in the hope that Brighton beat Liverpool.But with Chelsea dropping 20 points at home this season and failing to beat teams they would usually beat, do they really deserve to finish in the top four?Chelsea FanCast will be on Love Sport Radio this Friday for a two hour show between 7.00-9.00 pm for a new edition of the Chelsea FanCast.

Stamford Chidge is joined by Chelsea legend Kerry Dixon to look back at last weekends disappointing draw against West Ham and look ahead to Saturday's match against relegation threatened Southampton.Antonio Conte believes that the draw against West Ham encapsulated the season: creating chances; failing to kill teams off - does Kerry agree or is the bigger problem a soft underbelly in midfield and a lack of character or leadership? Will a change in manager sort things out and is a clear out of the players necessary?Given Chelsea's form this year Saints away is no walk over but does Kerry think we have enough to come away with a win? Does Conte need to change things in the selection? Who would you Kerry drop and bring in? With Chelsea playing Saints in the FA Cup semi-final next weekend will the result on Saturday have any bearing on that match? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
