didierforever 7,349 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 cechluiz iva terry cole mikelramires lampardsturridge mata torresI am going with luiz as RB for the simple reason that bosi would get mauled by young. Iva and Luiz can swap position(maybe) but being a RB i think luiz would get just that extra bit of freedom to attack. I ll go with torres upfront because benchin him after yesterday would shatter whatever confidence he built up. Lamps should play because i have a gut feeling that he is going to score soon.

King11Didier 916 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 We must take them on the ground after the flying start.I believe we can take 3 points from Old Traford.Come on Chelsea !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TacticalBlues 2,817 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Thing is Boas did say we were rotating squads so the chances are that our forward line up could be different, whatever the case I certainly hope Lukaku gets a run-in because he can definitely do something against Utd, especially if Drogba isn't fit (he won't be probably). I'd be happy with same front line that e fielded yesterday ( Sturridge - Torres - Mata), but Anelka should come on too sometime - he's a great sub option and proved it against bayer too. Most people seem to have the general consensus on what team we should field and it seems as though we all want it, its a given that Ramires must start he always does brilliant against United, let alone most of his opponents. The only thing is Ivanovic or Bosinwga, for me Banislav because he's the far better defender and in a team with Luiz and Ramires who also loves bombing up front we need a solid player like him. Plus he always shows Nani who's boss :eyebrows: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Drog 1,110 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Id likeCechBosingwa, Luiz, Terry, ColeRamires, Meireles, LampardSturridge, Torres, MataI think that team is good enough to come away from OT with something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike 12,049 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I'd like to win controversially. Nothing like another one of Lampard's 'goals that never were'. The shitstorm would be hilarious, especially if it was a late winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

- 25 - 167 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 As well as Bos has done so far this season, I'd definitely prefer Bran at fullback for this one with Luiz/Alex in the middle with JT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DONI CFC 26 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 10-0 to us I'd be really happy with, probably a touch unrealistic but we can dream. :blue scalf: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robdog 2,084 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Messi you the best.Messi is not better than ZZ or Ronaldinho. Both of those guys have performed for their country. I have yet to see Messi to that. However, Shrek might be the best scouser ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, Shrek might be the best scouser ever It's interesting how Messi hasn't scored for Argentina in those two tournaments, but set up many of their goals and doesn't receive praise for that.

Bir_CFC 3,455 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I can't believe people want to drop Ivan. I know Luiz scored but no way Ivan should be dropped. His display against Leverkusen was the best any Chelsea CB has had this season.Cech, Ivanovic, Cole, Ramires and Mata have to be guaranteed starts.So I'd say, possibly:CechBos, Ivan, Terry, ColeRamires, Mikel, LampardSturridge/Anelka, Torres, MataI was inclining towards Meireles but I think Mikel is a lil more disciplined in the DM role. Raul made some stupid challenges against Leverkusen in dangerous areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall 315 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I like that we aren't really expected to win, could count in our favour. If Torres gets his shooting boots on I can see us nicking it because with Sturridge and Mata he WILL get chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember what Giggs did to him last season in the CL. That was the last time we saw Bos. I love Bos, but I do hope he can achieve the performance like he did vs barfa, when he shutdown da so-call Messiah. We know he can do it, but the question is if he can do it. Come on Bos UTC!!!On da so-call Messiah, Eldo I do recall both Zindane & Ronaldinho setting up their team mates for club & country. I see a couple flashy moves from da so-call Messiah & everyone goes cuckoo. I like to refresh people's memories of his one of his Nat's performance:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1p1gbM3n2bc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivan can be too slow to face Ashely Young.Bos has still to convince me defensively, think Bran would be a better bet against Young who will be diving about like a fanny as usual.
