Jonathan Kydd, Clayton Beerman, Dan Silver join Matt Beadle to talk about Chelsea's defeat to Man City in the Premier League last weekend; the draw against Valencia in the Champions' League on Wednesday and look ahead to Saturday's match against West Ham.

Looking back at Chelsea's draw against Valencia we ask was the draw enough; is qualification secured? How do we address the fallibility at the back & be more ruthless up front? And with Kepa getting stick – is it justified or not?

In last weekend's defeat to Man City did Chelsea fail the big test or are they exceeding expectations? Was Chelsea’s inexperience and naivete exposed? When will we beat a big team and does it matter?

Looking ahead to Saturday's match against West Ha, with Tammy out, who starts Michy or Giroud? Do we expect many other changes to the starting XI? And with No love lost between Frank & West Ham; a 3 O’clock KO & a London Derby – it should be spicy!

We also talk to former West Ham Director of Youth Development Tony Carr, the man responsible for bringing the likes of Frank Lampard and Joe Cole through from the youth team, to get his take on West Ham.

We wrap up with our match predictions.
