00:00And I've got a hat, like a bee.
00:20It is a very beautiful afternoon.
00:25With rain.
00:26Is that marasca there in the hat?
00:31In the bubble hat.
00:32It is?
00:33It is, yeah.
00:34A bubble?
00:35Yes, it is.
00:36No, it's not.
00:37It's here.
00:38In the bubble hat.
00:39Is it?
00:40Yeah.
00:41Yeah, it is.
00:56And I've got a hat, like a bee.
01:24Come on, let us have a look at it.
01:26Yeah, hold it.
01:27Come on, let me see.
01:33You're too tall to grab you with a f***ing pen though.
01:45Come on, it's not that cold.
01:54Nice.
02:25What's up?
02:26What's up?
02:27Hello.
02:57I meant to ask, do you see when I step out, is there a monitor that's easy to see, like
03:15on the side of it, or is that?
03:17Yeah, I'll try and position it so that you can see.
03:23I'll try and read.
03:25Perfect Jason, thanks very much.
03:33Yeah, fine, so we're a bit low on track one, Rob, so if I keep talking like that, how's
03:37that, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, one, two, three, four, five,
03:40six, seven, eight, nine, ten, how's that, is that okay?
03:44If I, tiny bit more, so if I keep...
03:45I'll go any higher.
03:47Yeah, it's good.
03:49Perfect, thank you.
03:51Cheers, thank you.
03:54Cheers.
04:00Yes, mate, I've got you, I can hear you.
04:08Yeah, we're underway, the fifteen minutes, I reckon we're about two or three minutes
04:12into it.
04:20Yeah, fine, fine.
04:22I'm just going to get some shots while the lights are on.
04:52Yeah, let's go.
05:23It's like a sheet of black paper.
05:38It's more just a reference, the fact that it's...
05:43Good, good, good.
05:47I'll try, when I'm naming players, I'll try naming them in groups.
05:55It means there's no pressure for focusing.
06:12Come on, come on.
06:42Come on, come on.
07:12Come on, come on.
07:31Is that going to kill you light-wise?
07:34Are you sure? Which way are you going to walk, Paul?
07:37I'm not in your frame, am I?
07:43Ha, ha, ha.
07:53Yeah, quite a full squad it has to be said, Chelsea making their way out.
07:57Let me just show you what's happening in the background here at Cobham.
08:00They are training ahead of this Conference League game against Genoa.
08:04This training session does include players in the Conference League squad,
08:10as well, so the lights are matching well.
08:13Paul Palmer, Wesley Fofana and Romeo Labia are playing part of it,
08:17even though they are not going to be involved.
08:20It's really just about unleashing their minutes.
08:24Labia and Fofana have had long-term injuries.
08:28Palmer has played a lot of football as well,
08:30so this is a chance to have a bit of room in the warm-up section.
08:36This is a chance to give minutes to other players instead.
08:41It's huge importance on lots of squads as well,
08:44so some of the players who will be playing,
08:46and especially in the attacking area,
08:48it doesn't look like they are that much weaker anyway,
08:50because you've still got the likes of Ludwig, Phoenix, Nettle.
08:54It could be pretty well for them to pay attention in that front four.
08:59Further back we get here in Chesiree,
09:01today he faced the media, a suggestion that he may well start,
09:04but only be his second appearance of the season.
09:07The other one was against Barrow in the league,
09:09where he played a particularly good position,
09:11and from this perspective,
09:13Barrow is expected to be a step up in the Pacific weekend,
09:17one of the worst favourites to win,
09:20obviously the first chance to light up their way,
09:23one of the favourites to win this competition.
09:25But that's not going to be the case.
09:28Just as they go through the final stages of this warm-up,
09:32just as the heavens open as well,
09:34they're all dressed for the winter session,
09:37a bit of fun,
09:38those of those out having to run through and walk around,
09:42or use flip or something.
09:44But the one thing we can't say about this Chelsea team at the moment
09:48is they're all in good spirits,
09:50everyone seems to be happy,
09:51they all look fit and well,
09:54Step in who haven't had much game time,
09:56Bermel, Paddy Achille, Tolson, Arnaud,
09:59Ronaldo, Vega,
10:01players who just again have not got the minute.
10:23I think he's right at the back.
