How can we beat Manchester United

[Kojo 4,676]

WOW! Maybe you should be the coach of CFC, maybe we'll av a chance of losing 3-1.

Bosingwa at RW! WTF!

Get real man!

What's wrong with him playing right wing?, his crossing has been very good in his last two games in my opinion and his pace is great, i think he would do really well on the right wing. I never said i am the coach this is what i think, it's a fucking forum you post debates and your opinion on what and what we should do, none of this is going to happen, so don't tell me to get real, you try and get real and understand this is my opinion and i think this would be a good formation against United looking over past performances.

I'm not the manager, and i don't see these players in training, i don't talk to them idividualy i don't know who they are or what they are like, i can only judge from previous performances in matches, like we all can. I even said on my post AVB is the manager and he makes the decisions not me. And Bosingwa is more offence than defence, so why not try him upfront, yes it's a gamble, but a gamble is something we should take in my opinion.

We should play like real Madrid against Barcelona. Should play for draw

[Kojo 4,676]

And in my opinion - shot me down, if you want - but Lukaku would be in the starting line-up... And why?

- His physical talents are awesome! The Utd's center-backs are really weaks except Vidic, but he is on injury list now.

- This is would be a surprise, they will not prepare for this option!

- Lukaku's positioning is superb! Just check Mata's goal, if Mata passed him, he will convert it to goal!

- And maybe the most important thing... Just check our strikers form... it is really, really poor... And Lukaku want to demonstrate his commitment of Chelsea! I trust in him, but i know... He will just travel with the squad, but nothing more...

Lukaku would be brilliant to be honest with two good wingers at the sides, only thing is, it's harsh to throw a 18 year old with only 15 minutes of premier league experience in the Uniteds defence, and by him playing bad could actually ruin his career in my opinion, it would let him down and it wouldn't do him any good, but who knows maybe he's a strong lad and is driven and never gives up, i hope he is. But i like where your coming from, it would be a surprise yes, and a gamble is something we might just need to take.

U read my mind i was about to say the same thing.

It would sure suprise Fergie, maybe Andre should let "slip" in the press conference that Torres will play up top then play Lukaku?

Slow down mate! I guess i'm frustrated by the way manure has been winning shit! Its like their opposition defence goes off and start playn shit! It hurts man!

[Sheva. 5,373]

I honestly will not mind Lukaku starting.

Surely cant be any worse than playing Torres or Drogba?

[1chelsea 864]

We have the right team, we need the right attitude, the right player with the right frame of mind then we can compete

[Kojo 4,676]

It's okay, we all get frustrated, and yes when we lose to United i will be different on my opinion and getting angry, i know i will, but i also know i will eventually calm down. Now look at the negatives and positives United have from that game, they are in winning form, and are expected to beat us easily next sunday, now Ferguson is a miracle worker, he is just very clever and knows what he has to do to win this game, now theres a chance they can come complacent and over confident, it's unlikely becaues of Ferguson, but there's a chance of it, United at the moment though don't seem to be falling a sleep. They can take advantage if we are playing bad, that's why we can't play bad full stop. I think we will get out played, but who knows, hopefully Ferguson doesn't know much about AVB, and AVB is unpredictable and comes with a sly win. I think we will get trashed if we just play the same team with the same chemistry what we have been doing so far this season. That's why i think a big gamble is what's best for us.

Yes, maybe this whole notion would be a big gamble, but to be honest, the whole football is it! And just imagine, what would be happening if he score, he would be our Hernandez, maybe, maybe not, but we must to play gamble, to win something big thing. I never trust in any young, like in Lukaku! I know, maybe he don't score against the Man Utd, but I absolute sure, he would do EVERYTHING for the team!

I get your point mate, but i dont think bos could be the gamble! I think the gamble has to be a tactical one! AVB should be clever enough to know that our form can only get us a draw if we play well! (Unless we get a penalty)

[DONI CFC 26]

We have to win is a very important game

i want to see Drogba Torres and Lukaku forward

I disagree, Bosingwa has all the qualities in my opinion to play as a right winger, and it's a gamble to put him there, mainly due to the fact he's a right back, but i'm not putting him there like he will play amazing, i'm putting him there because we don't have much of a choice, if Lukaku did play in the middile which is highly unlikely, he would be fantastic with good wingers, and if we put Sturridge there he will just cut in rather than cross, and i think Lukaku would be better with two wingers who are willing to cross the ball for him. But Lukaku i highly doubt will be playing at all, but it's a very risky gamble in my opinion, but he can't put a worse performance in than Torres put it that way.

Sturridge is the only one who i can think who is suitable to put down in the centre at the moment who actually has a chance of playing, where as lukaku wont play full stop. And if he's playing down the middle then who is going to play on the right?, yes Anelka but he's not sharp enough and is a huge risk, if he isn't playing well he will let the whole team down not just himself, and Anelka just doesn't have the confidence to do well against them in my opinion. And should i even mention Kalou?, no i shouldn't. So yes Bosingwa would be the best option there in my opinion, if we do play Sturridge there, but i don't think it will happen.

I can see Mata-Torres-Anelka as the starting forwards easily.

[DYC. 7,542]

There are two things we absolutely shouldn't do:

Play a high defensive line

We don't have the right CBs for it and Man Utd are at their most dangerous on the break because of their pace and their ability to combine at high speed.

Start with Anelka

I don't think I've ever seen a bigger big game flop, every single time he doesn't manage to deliver.

[Naked Mole Rat 437]

----------------------Sturridge--------

Mata-----Lukaku---------------------

----------------------Meireles--Ramires

------------------Mikel--------------------

Cole-----Terry------Ivanovic--Bosingwa

-----------------Cech---------------------

Since United play quick and wide, we'll need our defense to sit back a little, and Mata and Ramires should play wide so our fullbacks won't have to go forward too often.

We should have Mikel play anchor man so he can keep a close eye on Young and/or Rooney. Up forward, I'd like to see Lukaku play deeper and support Sturridge, who'll use his pace to strip the defense. Shouldn't be worse than Torres without his confidence.

And at all times, shoot, shoot and shoot. That clown in goal, with the way he's been playing, should make at least a couple mistakes if we can just abuse him.
