PRE/POST-MATCH DISCUSSION, LIVE CHAT AND ANALYSIS



2016/17 FA Cup 3rd Round
8th January, Sunday, 2017
Stamford Bridge
15:00 Kick Off (UK time)

[MefiX19 1,092]

Chalobah, Michy, Ola and Zouma should start. Especially Zouma.

[Laylabelle 9,292]

Ooooo we haven't won this in a while. Hopefully can get a good run going..no Bradford!

[Eidur the Spider 4,515]

Oh I love a good cup game, let's try some fringe players out. I'd go with:

                        Begovic

          Ivanovic    Zouma    Terry (If fit)

Aina        Fabregas    Chalobah       Kenedy

        Willian      Batshuayi    Musonda

[Jase 43,479]

After losing earlier, I'm cursing the timing of this FA Cup game!

[BoyBlue96 990]

Don't give a shit about this match. Let the reserves and the kids play. Give our main men some rest.

Either way. Must win. Get this one done quickly and move on to Leicester where we really have to bounce back.

[manpe 10,855]

They are 8th in League One, defeat is unacceptable. Hope to see Michy and Chalobah start, give us a glimpse of Zouma too please.

I don't think Musonda will play unless Conte wants to keep him, since you can only play for 2 clubs per season.

More wishful thinking on my part to be honest. Same with Kenedy.

Agree with this. although id go RLC for cesc, providing RLC wont be heading out on loan. Give the fringe/sub places a chance to get into the first team. In particularly the defence

That's why I didn't go for RLC, I got a feeling he'll be loaned out. I think a full 90 for Fabregas would be good, plus he should be able to carve apart lower league opposition and give chances to Michy.

Play every reserve we have  First team need some rest after busy schedule over Christams and New year! 

Too bad this game is coming too soon for Musonda and Kenedy. 

 

[Adnane 1,101]

Most guys will be deceived for Musonda and Kenedy, unfortunately, if we are to loan them back we can't play them in January, so they will have to prove themselves in training and that's about it. ( The same as Bamford last year ). 

[the wes 7,212]

Courtois Moses alonso Kante Costa Luiz hazard cahill all need rested I would replace them with Begovic Aina kenedy fabregas Batshuayi  Zouma Willian Ivanovic

That's only if the intention is to loan them to a Premier League club. They can join another league even after having played for us... I doubt Musonda will get a Premier League loan deal.

I think the rule is that you cannot play for 3 separate clubs in a single season. I want to say that's UEFA (or something similar) rules.

Can't play official games for more than two. I doubt that applies to either player.

[drog.ba 239]

Given some players might be loaned out, I'd go:

begovic
tomori ivanovic zouma terry aina
fabregas chalobah
solanke/loftus-cheek batshuayi willian
