Anyone think all the stars will start?

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Probably none who went to the World Cup. I hope to see Benayoun starting.

[NattyBlue 44]

^ Agreed, our youth that were promised 1st team roles (Matic, Van Aanholt, Borini, Kakuta and Bruma was it?) will all be present too I think.

Surely Bosingwa will be back by then?

doubt if Bos will be back ,,no news on him from CFC

[NattyBlue 44]

What a horrible injury he ended up with...I just hope he recovers

[Cameron 30]

I wouldn't expect any WC players to be involved in this one. Will be nice to see a few of the younger players play for the first team though.

Be nice to see Ess back even if for a few minutes...poor bloke.Heck him stepping on the pitch and off again make me happy lol

[zolayes 14,489]

cech

hutchinson mancienne bruma van aarnolt

benyahoum matic kakuta yuri

sturridge borini

[Gianfranco_Z 202]

I'm sure Anelka should be alright to play

Anelka played 118 minutes at the world cup. I think he will start to get his morale up a bit by smashing in a few goals.

Mikel should start too. hope he will be fine soon

[NattyBlue 44]

The Bos was in training today...

[eldo 868]

I don't think Kakuta and Borini will be involved. Aren't they going to France to U-19 European championship?

[Cameron 30]

Yep, not sure about Borini but I think Kakuta definitely is.

I'm sure most players at training in the next week or two (the non wc) ones will be involved in the CP friendly.

[Rambo 1,729]

Bosingwa projected to return by August.
