Well Luis needs to settle into the team and this is a good game to do it, and you can`t leave Ivanovic out after the game he had. So Azpi can sit this one out. He`ll get a lot of game time during the season anyway.
Hard work. Words that best describe him. He came last year nowhere near the level required for a Chelsea spot. But since then, I`m sure that he`s been paying much attention to Mourinhos advice, put in a lot of hard work in training and it`s all paid off. He runs a lot and works for the team, can dribble, can score, can assist, and most important, he can also deliver in the big games. That`s why I think Mourinho will chose him a lot this season and he`ll score much more with Fabregas tracking his great runs.
I really hope that he will succeed at Chelsea. He`s been around the first team for a few years and if he keeps developing, I`m sure that he`ll make it.
