Munky 29 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 This will be very interesting to watch, a lot of youngsters on the bench and what seems to be a new formation, delighted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

francozola 2,040 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Wonder whether the rest are really ill or if it was some kind of leak to hide the fact that they've been dropped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badboy 1,526 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Lukaku is on the bench that's a fantastic thing ! I hope he comes on ! Drogba ain't even on the bench. So our 2 attacking options are Lukaku and Josh ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostas 1,468 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I'd probably avoid this after the last fiasco (Lampard at the tip of the Diamond being another reason) but all those young players at bench might actually make this game worth to watch.

Mr. Ziggles 110 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 AVB has done it, now it's up to the players... and if they perform, it's done, we win, and it's the start of a new era! ... of not switching managers like crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slam Dunk 1,442 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 If AVB continues his run of using all 3 subs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubber bullets 1,183 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I can't see it being a diamond with Mata as a striker, must be some kind of 4-2-3-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramox 246 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Chelsea are expected to line-up in the following 4-3-3 formationerOn paper.. I hope this not true... -.-" In 4-3-3 mata on left, ramires on right sideBut I think this is not the best formation for this 11 men, but this is why I'm here, next to telly, and not next to pitch, like AVB.

Peace. 4,352 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Subs: 23 Ross Turnbull, 20 Paulo Ferreira, 27 Sam Hutchinson, 34 Ryan Bertrand, 45 Nathaniel Chalobah, 20 Josh McEacharn, 18 Romelu Lukaku.So many young players on the bench... Not even one in the starting line-up, meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubber bullets 1,183 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Oh dear, according to the Chelsea website we are sticking with the 4-3-3 with Ramires as a right winger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
termninja 5,290 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I can't see it being a diamond with Mata as a striker, must be some kind of 4-2-3-1Just so yo now, Mata can also play as a striker Where he is on the paper is completely irrelevant, he'll fly all around the pitch trying to open spaces and send a killer pass.

Badboy 1,526 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I would of swapped Lampard for McEachran then we would of had a lot of ammunition for ''handbag'' oh sorry i mean Torres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jusek 2,031 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 So nice to see Hutch on the bench again, what a story! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peace. 4,352 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Well, I am sceptical. Had it been another formation than the 4-3-3, it could have been interesting, but if the official website is right, then it looks odd.. And I am not thrilled with the midfield, it is always the same negative one. I'll wait and see, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
