Closed Chelsea v Galatasaray

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

People saying start Schurrle, but how many people were calling for him to start against Villa after his pathetic performance against Tottenham. Everyone was saying "start Willian, start Willian". The problem is that some of our players are simply not good enough for varying reasons.

[Strike 6,961]

There is no secret here, Jose will come up with something like:

Cech; Ivan, Cahill, Terry, Azi; Mikel, Ramires, Oscar (Lampard), Willian; Etoo.

Final result: 3-0

you missed one - eden. this would be my team too

People just want changes, after a bad result, people will call for changes, its doesnt matter if the other options are limited ones, in many aspects. Someone here said we should leave both Oscar and Willian on the bench, so our midfield against Gala will be: Mikel, Ramires, Lampard, Schurle, Hazard. I dont know you, but for me it looks a really average and awful midfield for me.

Playing all 3 of Mikel, Lampard and Ramires is rather suicidal when all of them are 1 yellow card away from a 1 game suspension in Europe. If they all get a yellow card and we progress into the QFs, we are gonna have issues finding a midfield from somewhere then..

Any update on luiz??? Will he be back for this. Feel he is going to be uber important in the mid for this game.

We played better than you at İstanbul but we can not win at away we have not been won for 7weeks i can not help worrying i think that this match will go on extra time and penalty shoot outs

[edetarod 2,155]

i would love a 0-0 more than 3-0 for some reason

i guess i want us to go through in the most ugly way as possible to piss everyone else off

No it wont go to extra time or penalty shootouts. We are a much better team and we will win comfortably at home.

Not only that, but usually when we start with a defensive mid of 3, we're going for a draw or a lucky 1-0.

We should be winning this without too much problem.

I dont mind goin out of the champ league if it means us winning the league this year

I think Schurrle should start this game instead of Oscar

[Laylabelle 9,296]

Score first..yay...they score first bit ahhhh.Need to finish off chances!

[Alan Partridge 1,124]

Must be the only time where if we went out I wouldn't be too disappointed. Would give us a real chance at the Prem and I don't mind too much seeing as Drogba plays for them. I still want us to go through but we really don't need this game to got to extra time

A 1453 in England ?

Can it happen ?

[cosmicway 1,252]

If this match ends 0-0 are the world's bookmakers going to resign ?

From a short list of bookmakers, average home win price is 1.39 and average 0-0 price is 12.20

In the similarly weighted match of Salzburg v. Basel on Thursday the average home win price is 1.39 and the average 0-0 price is 14.5.

By the looks of it we are preparing to take the money to mother Russia.
