BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 7, 2011 Author Share Posted August 7, 2011 We're playing Stoke, Drogba has to play as far as I'm concerned. Not necessarily because of his strength, but his scoring record against them; three in the last four and three assists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laylabelle 9,535 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 We seem to do weird things when we play against Stoke..and with the friendly mid week hopfully that wont have any effect espically with injuries!! Big score be nice but can see it being a tough 1-0..hey ho 3 points what matters....Torres goal make it even better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manpe 10,861 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I'd prefer him to come on as a sub against a lower tier team in League Cup... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 80th minute sub for DrogbaCould work. But I think this game would be too soon. Perhaps vs WBA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King11Didier 916 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Wow guys don't predict big win for Chelsea.It is possible,but Stoke are very good team and we always play hard with them.Especially when they are at home.And how BlueLion said,Drogba must start.He is very good when he play against them.Like against Arsenal Look at his last goal against Stoke last season. http://videa.hu/videok/sport/st1-1ce-0f2VBodtjvwrpQLYI will post the line up which i want,not which i think AVB will start.CechIvan(If he is Ok.If he isn't than Pulo) - Luiz - JT - ColeRamires - Mikel - LampardDrogba - Torres - MaloudaIf Mikel it is not alright than Josh take his position.I think Drogba can play there.He have the speed and good croos.I expect to win with 0-1 or 1-2.Good luck to boys.Im sorry for that I can't watching the first 2 or 3 Chelsea matches in the new season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Given we are going to be bombarded with long balls and throw in's, our strongest avalible players is a must.If it has not sunk it on Andre that he is managing in England it will after this.

Tomo 21,751 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Maybe this game is why our transfer targets have refused to talk to us.After this one we might hear more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomo 21,751 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 What dya mean?basically they are signing late so they dont have to play at the Brittania, would not suprise me, especially with Neymar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmax 9,219 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 It's Stoke - the heavy machinery needs to be out as far as I'm concerned. CechIvan, Alex, JT, ColeMikel/RamiresBenayoun, LampardAnelka, Drogba, Malouda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionsden 4,689 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Based on merit, lampard and Anelka shouldn't be starting against stoke. Ramires and Kalou ahead of Lampard and Anelka for me but then again team selection according to most fans and managers is based on reputation and experience rather than actual merit.

Madmax 9,219 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 ^ Based on actual merit, Kalou doesn't even deserve a place on the bench If Mikel has to sit this one out, Ramires would most likely be the one to be played there, meaning Lampard gets a game. Unless AvB has the balls to play Josh instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
