TomCFC 357 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Not the best opening game, but I'm confident about this new era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheva. 5,373 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 How about Drogba on the right, Kalou and Anelka on the bench? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 7, 2011 Author Share Posted August 7, 2011 I'm particularly worried about this game. I think this is possibly a tougher opening game than facing United at Old Trafford or Liverpool at Anfield. Why? Because Stoke play with a high intensity at all times and are buoyed by impressive European exploits, whereas the big teams often show a lot of respect to each other. Make no mistake about it, this is one of the hardest fixtures of the season, and playing away at the most passionate and noisy ground in the league is not an ideal start.If we win this match, we really are a good team.

They have smaller ground as anyone else, do Delap could take those throw-inns and very noisy fans. I guess being there is like in hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDN Blue 7,903 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Considering we're playing Stoke, I'd play the line-up as: CechIvanovic - Alex - Terry - ColeLampardRamires - BenayounKalou -------------------------- MaloudaTorres It's sad we still have to put Kalou & Malouda in our prospective line-ups but I guess we just have to trust our tactics will mean minimal touches from them.
