BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Chris Martin who lives up my road is starting for Norwich at the Bridge today. I thought you meant Chris Martin for a minute. I'd love to see him up front.Andre Villas-Boas has selected Didier Drogba and Fernando Torres in a two-man frontline.It looks as though Villas-Boas has gone to a 4-4-2 diamond shape, with Frank Lampard tucking in behind the front men and Florent Malouda playing on the left of midfield.Branislav Ivanovic replaces Alex in the centre of defence, while new signings Juan Mata and Romelu Lukaku are both on the bench.Norwich defender Leon Barnett is available after serving a one-game ban in the League Cup defeat to MK Dons, while new defender Daniel Ayala is out for eight weeks with a knee injury. Wes Hoolahan was a doubt with a hamstring problem but starts in midfield.Chelsea will line-up in the following 4-4-2 diamond formation:40 Hilario17 Jose Bosingwa2 Branislav Ivanovic26 John Terry ©3 Ashley Cole7 Ramires12 John Mikel Obi15 Florent Malouda8 Frank Lampard9 Fernando Torres11 Didier DrogbaSubs: 22 Ross Turnbull33 Alex,19 Paulo Ferreira, 20 Josh McEachran, 10 Juan Mata, 39 Nicolas Anelka, 18 Romelu LukakuNorwich are expected to line up in the following 4-5-1 formation:Ruddy; Naughton, Whitbread, Barnett, De Laet; Crofts, Johnson, Hoolahan, Tierney, C Martin; Holt ©Subs: Rudd, R Martin, Bennett, Pilkington, Fox, Jackson, Morison.The referee is Mike Jones.

Jusek 2,031 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Lukaku and Mata on the bench! I wouldn't mind to see both of them on the pitch today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramox 246 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 But really.... Why don't give a chance for Josh and PvA? This seems it will be an easy match... Just a chance, if not work, he just substitues them in the half time... This is our biggest problem... Too big pressure on the coach, and he fear about the lowest risk too.... :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DYC. 7,542 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Lampard at the tip of the diamond though? The last thing he needs is less time on the ball. Surprising choices by AVB, we can only hope everything works out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest justin_3d Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Where is Yossi?Lampard again to start.....This coach is disappointing me.This team is easy and the team he has should beat this team comfortable, but i would have hope to see youngster playing and yossi!Very bad from AVB. Continuing the legacy of Carlo last year.P.S. Expect like 2 goals from Lampard due to the weak opponent, but it's with weak opponents when you have to give chances to younger players!
