Summary
Is just one normal, straightforward victory too much to ask for?
Matt Davies-Adams is joined by The Athletic's Chelsea experts Liam Twomey and Simon Johnson to look back on the mayhem of the 4-2 FA Cup quarterfinal victory over Leicester at Stamford Bridge.
We talk an afternoon to forget for Raheem Sterling, yet more Palmer brilliance and the unseriousness of this team.
Plus, Jessy Parker Humphreys is with us to reflect on the potentially title-deciding victory over Arsenal on Friday night - and the fallout from some of the eye-raising comments made by Emma Hayes...
We're taking a short international break of our own but will be back to preview the visit of all but relegated Burnley - who come to Stamford Bridge on the 30th of March!
Produced by Lucy Oliva.
