I think he is not a big upgrade over current in-form Matić ... he is acutally rated pretty average in Serie A this year with his passing % under 80 We need a younger box-to-box midfielder who can deliver best of both worlds. Put some money on the table and bring Verratti, Fabinho or Saul.

He is actually #1 on my wishlist, even above Verratti He is like better version of Matić and also more than capable of playing as RWB. He started his career as right back if I am not wrong? But anyway ... 23 years of age and perfect example of box to box midfielder - must have There are some players who were labelled as "not good enough defensively" when we were playing 4 at the back ... but left backs as Rodriguez, Creswell or Hector would probably shine in 343/352 system ?

I am not talking about underestimating an opponent ... I am just talking about being confident and with our A game we should win

Every game is a test for you guys .. are you just waiting for Chelsea to drop some points? We are probably the hotest team in the league, we beat United, Southampton and Everton in last three games with ease and now we are suddenly afraid of Boro? It's not gonna be a walk in the park but we should win this one for sure! Same lineup please Pedro is in great form, don't try to force Willian Zouma should get some minutes off the bench CMON CHELSEA

Leicester and West Ham are having a bad season so far .. I am sure we could sign Mahrez or Payet in january

Funny how things change .. Cahill was a disgrace in September and now he is capable of playing first 11 even when 2 transfer windows are available? And what is with Christiansen hype on this forum? He is pretty average in Bundesliga and Champions league, he is "a project" not a starter

Fabinho/Verratti, Van Dijk and Mahrez

I don't care about this cup much, rather focus on finishing top4 and trying to go as far as possible in FA Cup But nevertheless some things were revealed: 1.) Pedro is probably better choice than Willian for RW position. Much better decision making in final third. 2.) Terry is too slow for this system, he should be benched. 3.) Moses and Alonso are crucial. 4.) Kante can become fantasy material 5.) Oscar is pathetic.

but there is also Oscar

I would say 2-3 weeks

According to bib theory this will be our starting lineup: Begovic Azpi - Terry - Luiz Aina - Chalobah - Kante - Alonso Willian - Batshuayi - Hazard It would be nice if we can win without extra time and offer Kante, Alonso and Hazard some rest before final whistle

Both Payet and Mahrez should be available in january transfer window as their clubs are in very poor form I would love one of them on right wing Just bring some quality players, we don't need quantity

Very good perfomance by Virgil van Dijk against City I would really love him in Chelsea shirt

I was just thinking about it and we can't even rest him against West Ham because we don't have a suitable player ... maybe Pedro? Kenedy or Ake could rotate with him perfectly IMO He plays in very demanding position, he is probably our biggest hardworker alongside Kante and we can't afford to rest him

Batshuayi, Chalobah, RLC and Aina should play

A walk in the park boys, just a walk in the park

Cmon Chelsea, bring it on We are in good form and we can outplay them ... just don't bother with Mourinho, he is our history. We play against Manchester United, one of the biggest English clubs out there not against Mourinho. Please don't chant for him, rather do it for our own players and Conte ... or at least for Juan "The gentelman" Mata If you have to use Mourinho, use him for motivation!

I think Azpi will be benched and Terry will start

It's Thursday man, chill

I just hope Terry doesn't come in for Alonso and moves Azpi to LWB. KEEP ALONSO AND MOSES AS WINGBACKS, THANK YOU

Loftus Cheek, Chalobah, Baker, Colkett ... some quality talent in our midfield

Make him assistant manager as soon as he retires. I would also love to see some other ex players like Zola and Lampard in our coaching team.

Just continue with dropping underperforming players ... I hope Ivanović stays on the bench and at least Cahill joins him

I blinded fan would never abuzse a player like Gary ... but a real fan should be objective. One question for you, have you seen the game versus Slovenia? His behaviour was a disgrace, should have got a red card. He was acting like a fool ... tackling with both feet on Ilicic was reckless and his behaviour after it was even worse. Kicking and pushing players after the ball is out of play is just dumb. I am actually embarrassed by fans that support something like this.

Virgil van Dijk and Fabinho in january We could also sell Mikel, Matić, Oscar and bring Baker back from loan
