Closed Chelsea vs Napoli

[Sheva. 5,373]

Can we play 2 strikers for once? Drogba alone up top didn't cause them much trouble last time around.

[Doctor j 11]

Hy guys, in naples we are so excited for this match, you can't understand how much...how do you live the se days before match ?

[Laylabelle 9,398]

I am just hoping for an all round good team performance and yet if we still manage to lose then I wont feel gutted because I will be happy to know that went down with a fight.If at all we do lose then none of us here should blame RDM or question his tactics.Its important we continue to support our manager till the very end and for once show some appreciation rather than criticize and bicker upon every detail.

Yeah agree!! If we loose but showed fighting spirit and really went for it..wont be so disspointed.Stroll around and will be peed off

Getting more and more confident for this game, I just hope the fans going make some noise to get us up for it and grab an early goal to shut up the Napoli fans.

Cech

Ivan Luiz JT Berty

Essien

Ramires Lampard

Sturridge Drogba Mata

Essien Ramirez and LAmpard in the middle? what type of middle is this? a really shit, who distributed the ball? bfffffff the only that have this quality is Oriol Romeu

[Shane 2,275]

I'd go for

Cech

Ivanovic - Luiz - JT - Cole

Rambo - Essien

Sturridge - Lampard - Mata

Drogba

Chelsea to win 3-1 on the night, then a Frank Lampard penalty in extra time to clinch it.

[communicate 2,703]

Cech

Ivanovic - Luiz - JT - Cole

Lampard - Essien

Ramires - Mata - Sturridge

Drogba

Lavezzi killed us in the first game and we need somebody to help Iva on the right. Sturridge does not really want to track back so we need ramires on the right

[Trueblue1982 48]

I think this match is going to be an epic one, and all i want to see from who ever starts is 110% and then some for 90 min + a possible 30 + a possible ......

What ever happens as long the players play with pride and passion ill be happy, think its going to be a nail bitter.. CAREFREE

I want 2 strikers but i'd not complain (much) with this formation.

Only thing is - Ramires should not play there, he gives the ball away too much to play in that position, just watch the 1st leg again. Mikel in his place.

Something like this?

Cech

Ivanovic - Luiz - JT - Cole

Essien

Ramires - Mata- Lampard

Drogba- Sturridge/Torres

i'd like Rambo there because he'd be able to help out with the pace of Cavani and Lavezzi, he's also a threat driving forward.

Yeah something exactly like that.

Maybe, but he'd also give the ball away in very dangerous positions.

It happened so many times in the previous leg...

[Sheva. 5,373]

It happened so many times in the previous leg...

Yeah, that was probably his worse performance this season. Couldn't do anything right.

Dangerman Marek Hamsik has promised that his Napoli side will go on the attack to avoid making the same mistake as AC Milan.

I think if El Nino comes in around the 75th or 80th minute, it might provide a reward. He knows that he needs to produce & this would be a big stage for him, so he could secure a place on Espana's National team in the Euros. Hopefully CFC is not counting on him at that moment.

Chelsea to win this comfortably 3-0!

I believe in victory, and I believe in Roberto Di Matteo..

CAREFREE!

I wish I was as optimistic as you. We struggled against a 10 man stoke side, I doubt we will win by 2 goals to none. Just watched the Arsenal match and saw how they fought till the last minute and won. Remember when chelsea was like that?

Remember when we didn't have a ramshackle squad of 3rd choice transfer targets?

I do too.

Still think we got a lot of quality but even more character in the locker room. We need to lean on that experience and character, gut out this result, and get it done. I think we will. Definitely doesn't hurt to be optimistic.
