Closed Chelsea Vs Newcastle

[Santiago. 1,500]

1-0 Lampard penalty won by Hazard

[Marvin123 484]

not going to be easy

[Jase 43,479]

they're risking their Europa League campaign by resting players against us

They probably don't even bother about it OR Alan Pardew thinks his 2nd string team should be good enough to see them off. 1-1 now at HT. Atromitos took the lead first before Ryan Taylor equalized for Newcastle with a FK from 25 yards or so.

[Jase 43,479]

Full time in Greece and Newcastle drew 1-1 with Atromitos.

Fancy a 3-0 here, Torres x2 & Hazard scoring.

[Tomo 21,733]

As yesterday showed their is no real need for Mikel and Lampard in the 2 in the "lesser games", in future i would like to see Ramires there with one of them too. Hazard, Oscar and Mata with Ramires running from the pivot

But this however is not one of those so we can't make too many changes, Danny for Nando but apart from that same again.

[Jose M 140]

Big game fo sure! I hope Cahill and JT start so we can deal with the likes of Cisse and Ba. Also Id love to see a start for Romeu with lampard in midfield.

[Alee. 182]

Really doubt Romeu will start, let alone feature. Tough one, still can't forget the fixture last season. I think it's going to be 3-1, us going 1-0, letting them score, then scoring two more. Lampard, Hazard and Torres!

:D

[YouNameIt 1,511]

Cech

Iva - Cahill - Terry - Cole

Ramires - Mikel - Bertrand

Mata - Sturridge - Hazard

I see this as a must win game. Lets see what this team can do. With that team, I think we can get a 2-0 lead and then get Romeu and Essien in. Plus give Sturridge some CF time.

[joshmassey10 0]

I think we will win this game, Hazard has been unbelievable and i expect Newcastle to struggle to deal with him. Think he might bag his first goal aswell and i reckon we will win 2-1. Click here to see my predictions for the rest of this weekends games.

[chealsist 23]

Cech

Iva - Cahill - Terry - Cole

Mikel - Lampard

Ramires - Oscar - Hazard

Torres

Sturridge on for Torres in the 70-75th minute.

Essien on for Mikel around the same time.

WTF??? if torres scores hat trick ??/

[Chelsea? 892]

I actually thought a younger team like we have now would rarely take their foots off the peddle when leading. But maybe Torres should urge the mids to keep pressing. I only use FT9 cause he's our main man responsible for our goals

[Chelsea? 892]

WTF??? if torres scores hat trick ??/

then surely he should be given a rest. Unless the score is close

[bluephoenix 1,126]

the 2 wins that we grabbed should keep the new signings excited and their morale high ... I am expecting a much better performance against Newcastle ...

hope we win !!!

[didierforever 7,349]

very off topic but i just had to post this somewhere.

here are DD first 2 goals for shanghai.

[Danelka 209]

The referee will be Dowd, and the 4th official will be Foy.

They are number 2 and 3 on my most hated referees list.

[Pacquiao 1,834]

I would play

Cech

Ivanovic - Luiz - Terry - A.Cole

Mikel - Lampard

Ramires - Mata - Hazard

Torres

Chelsea 3-1 Newcastle

Torres x2
