LOL. Are you the kid that thought KDB was going to start over Oscar last season too? LOL Don't give me no belgian homerism. Also, LOL, to everton being a top 6 team that just lost to fullham and took 4 games to notch a victory.

eh, I wouldn't use this game to judge Mata.... However, I still think he is the number 2 cam and not starting winger for either sides.....

NO. 1-2 in the league..... If you compare them to Europe, than probably not....

If rambo and mvg are out, unleash the AKE!

MVG is injured... Luiz was put there cause Mourinho had no choice. It's going to be mikel-lamps, unless rambo can come back.

I hope we buy a cm in January now.

NO!!!! LAMPARD MIKEL vs Paulinho=Sandro and Dembele We are def. going to play 4-3-3.

How is Mata, willian and kdb linkin?

I can only dream.

thanks man. Firstrow is starting to piss me off. They don't broadcast CC games in the states.

So, what is considered a failure this game? Less than 3-0?

He didnt start for West Brom. And your assuming he's going to start for Everton.... In addition, what exactly did Lukaku do in the preseason? It's one thing to excel on a midtable team, but its another thing to excel for Chelsea where most teams are going to park the bus versus us. Lukaku should of went on loan to Swansea and learned a thing or 2 from Landrup.

I wanted to see Ake-Willian-Luiz together!

PERFECT LB for hazard= ALABA!

take out luiz and mikel add in cahill and lampard Maybe willian for schurrle... That what I can see mourinho picking.

I wonder why all 3 forwards are on the team sheet.

Wait, so mikel and lampard is going to start vs the Spurs????? oh em gee.

F that means Lampard is starting vs Tottenham.

Well, I tend to disagree. Lukaku didn't really show me anything in the preseason games ( I didn't watch the asian ones). I don't really understand how you can view him above both Ba and Torres, since both have more experience and both have actually played first team for Chelsea. Also, Lukaku doesn't even start for Everton nor did he start for most of the matches with West Brom (and who was his competition for both teams?) If lukaku can't start for either teams, why should he gotten a chance to start for Chelsea?

He better play vs Tottenham this weekend...

Everyone on Chelsea is a world class player apparently.. Yet, they can't sniff their national team... Initially, I really detested the sale of Ozil, however, with the additions of Bale, Isco and even having Modric, Ozil was a luxury and was going to bring in the most funds back to Madrid (besides Ronaldo). So, I understand why it was done.

Oscar is hardly a number 10 this season. Everytime he plays with Lampard, the formation usually shifts to 4-3-3. Saturday will be a good test when we face the best (second) midfield in the bpl for Oscar and company.

is this on tv in the US?

Why would they built around Mata, when both Rooney and RVP are better players.. Can you name me a significant cam from Man United or even Everton? Also, I said this last season, Mata wouldn't sniff RM or Barca starting 11.

I disagree, Kagawa doesn't get any minutes with United and Rooney is technically their #10. Mata would be forced to play winger and United always had pacy wingers (Ronaldo, Giggs, Nani, Valencia, even Young).... The best team would of been Tottenham, but that boat has passed.
