Chelsea won't need crafty tactics against Foxes

IS Jose Mourinho boring? Yes. Okay, that's that burning issue of the last few days put to bed.

Time to move on. On to Chelsea's next riveting, all-action Premier League assignment which is away at Leicester.

My advice to the Chelsea bus driver is that once you've dropped the players off, this time stick your coach in the car park rather than the 18-yard box. There really should be no need.

Leicester aren't a bad side, indeed they're one of the form teams in the division. But I can't imagine JT and his mates doing group hugs, fist pumps and giving it large to their supporters should they leave the Foxes' lair with just a 0-0 draw to show for their efforts.

This is one they expect to win especially as Nigel Pearson is mulling over resting anyone with so much as a touch of hay fever ahead of their far more important showdown at the weekend against Newcastle, a team who were once quite good but are now an utter shambles and there for the taking. Unlike Chelsea.

So I'm all over Chelsea – and that's even if Didier Drogba does start up front. I was thinking of going under 2.5 but will leave it if the Drog plays. I'll do under 1.5 instead.
