Coleman fears being crushed by Chelsea

CHRIS COLEMAN fears Chelsea will run up a “cricket score” if his Fulham players fail to raise their game for tonight’s Carling Cup quarter-final at Craven Cottage.

The Welshman did not mince his words after Fulham lost to Blackburn at home on Saturday, a result which lifted Rovers off the bottom of the Premiership.

It left Coleman to question whether his “arrogant” squad had the stomach for a relegation dogfight following a third successive league defeat.
