Interesting thread. I wouldn't like the idea of us playing it but we could tbh. I think Hazard is the right person to play as a false 9 but I wouldn't use him there. He'd be ideal on the left tbh, he would be better as a midfield runner rather than the man dropping deep to collect the ball etc. This sounds weird but I think Mata would be more ideal for the false 9 as he always seems to be dropping deep, also he doesn't have the greatest burst of place to run in behind defenses/defenders. Sturridge would be brilliant for one of the two wide men tbh. In all fairness, Barca's false 9 tactic works more effectively though because all of the front three have the ability to drop deep and play in the more central role making it incredibly harder for it to be predictable. I'm unsure whether Moses would be ideal if he had to come inside every now and then to interchange positions tbh, Sturridge would suit it much, much better. Damn I wanted to say that!!

Dear Robbie, drop Torres and give Danny a chance. Also play Victor Moses instead of Rami for a game or two. Would be nice to see them feature together in the team.

Hes able to play as a #9 I read. He played there for Universidad del Chile a few times apparently.

Heard what happened, absolutely terrible. I criticized him and Terry's part in the goal along with a few other players but I think racism is a step far too far. Disgraceful.

Torres get payed 10.8 million a year, each 1.08 million is for every goal he scores. 10.

Keep an eye on Eduardo Vargas at Napoli. I'm sure the Napoli fans will tell you how highly rated he is! We were interested before when AVB was in charge and tbh I'm gutted we didn't get him. Bagged a hattrick tonight I think. He can play as a striker, left winger or right winger, rather versatile.

Ramos has a poor discipline record, he has more red cards than Fernando Hierro, who had the official club record I think. He is a solid CB, can play a bit and I would take him in a heart beat but hes a bit of a dickhead.

The real problem with Torres is that hes a fucking bellend who has dipped dramatically in the last 3 years. He should be playing amazing based on his previous form now that hes in his prime. At least 30 goals a season but no hes fucking scoring 8 a season.... not even that..... He gets involved too much with our build up play imo, he runs about dropping near the halfway line to receive the ball (I also think Mata is constantly guilty for this as well tbh but I think its more because we don't have a player who builds the game from a deeper position like Modric, Moutinho, Xavi etc.) and also tackling about there as well, then he doesn't make a run to help out whoever has the ball in an advanced position (where he should be in the first place.) He should be finishing off chances, not building the game slightly deeper providing key passes constantly. He has to contribute yes but he does it too much imo. Maybe its because the midfield 5 if you will call it aren't winning the ball as high up, maybe its because hes a lazy bastard after putting work in to winning the ball back... or maybe its not. Maybe he should start scoring goals, or maybe he should just get fucking sold....

Should have buried that chance but yet again I suppose he did look sharp. Unlucky Juanny Cash!

Hazard is slowly becoming the main man in our team, only after 6 games. Scary stuff. Based on other games not just tonight, even though he was pretty useless.

Passing to Torres from now on should result in a booking for time wasting.

What about "RAMI Y U NO LEARN TO SHOOT FROM your BUD OSCAR?" edit can't put u r (together as one) it just filters to your ....

Didn't he not have a header which deflected off Chielleni or something? It didn't come to anything but you can count that if you want haha

MUST IMPROVE IN FRONT OF GOAL OR MOVE. GENERAL PLAY IS DECENT, TRACKS BACK, WINS A LOT OF TACKLES FOR A CF BUT NEEDS TO GET GOALS! AND FAST!

If Oscar is dropped against Stoke then I will be extremely disappointed. Also see the free kick Lamps took, why didn't Oscar not take it? With the whip and placement he got on that shot I would of handed him it straight away

If I were a manager, I would never resort to listening to the fans for tactics. It would make you look ridiculous, on par with Rafa Benitez and Spuds. I'd stick to my philosophy and my plans A, B and C. I'd only reconsider changing my plans if they were tactically needed like against Juventus I'm sure many of us would have played a similar formation to crowd out the midfield...

Robbie didn't identify the main problem which was them having more numbers in midfield where they totally dominated the game in the second half. If he had deployed a formation with sufficient enough central midfielders we would have been able to prevent Vidal and Marchisio finding so much space. Anyway blowing the 2-0 was a pain in arse, we should of had a pen and won at least 3-1.

ONE OF THE BEST GOALS EVER SCORED BY A CHELSEA PLAYER? FUCK YES

OH MY FUCKING DAYS, OSCAR, OH MY FUCKING DAYS, OH MY DAYSSSSSSSSSSSS

OSCAR WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!! 1-0 FUCKING YAS

I WAS MADE TO BELIEVE LICHESTEINER IS GOOD, IS HE FUCK.

OSCAR, OSCAR, OSCAR, OSCAR!! ABOUT FUCKING TIME ROBBIE!!!

I think Barca will run away with the league despite it being extremely early. Real have looked flat and boring, is this Mourinhos last year there? We'll see

MOSES TO START VS JUVENTUS PLZZZZZZZZ XD

Why doesn't Robbie take a leaf from Craig Leveins book and go 4-6-0 Even more defensive than the formation we have with the two defensive wingers.
