Milan 17,957 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Torres starts his 12th game of the season, he had to wait til late December last year for 12 starts.Well if he is the only option these days, compared to Drogba's compettition last season...

Leif 6,006 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Kinda weird having 3 defenders on the bench plus 1 defensive midfielder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TorontoChelsea 4,064 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 The only thing wrong with this line up is Mikel - Lampard along side each other, has this ever worked? I don't think so...Yes, it's worked many times, in fact most of the time, it's worked. We are 9-4-1 under RDM with the two of them in the starting lineup with the only loss being away at Man City. (And that's including the CL semi final and final and the FA Cup final...hardly an easy schedule.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dargo 6 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Did you watch the last three month of last season?!Yes, I went to most of those games including the CL final in Allianz. Forget last season, I meant to say this season. It hasn't really worked this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milan 17,957 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I assume people are mentioning Marin because RDM said ONLY Sturridge is not available. There was not a single word about Marin and his fitness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheva. 5,373 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Not underestimating Norwich but annoyed with RDM who once again persisting stubbornly with the same predictable lineup. Start Azpi and/or Moses FFS!!Moses started last game. Expected Azpi to start though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HNKS 508 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 More promising than winning the Champions League?It wasnt just Mikel and Lampard defending in the Champions league final though was it? The whole team was defending. When the attackers do their job and stay up the pitch the Lampard - Mikel partnership looks shoddy at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the attackers do their job and stay up the pitch the Lampard - Mikel partnership looks shoddy at best.But they were fantastic. There is no way we beat Barcelona without the two of them (or score either the Drogba or Ramires goals). The partnership has been mediocre so far this season, but it's been what, 3 league games and one CL match? As I pointed out earlier, our overall record with these two in the double pivot, despite excellent competition is very good. It's not perfect, but it's hardly the mess people want to make it out to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keikoismad 162 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I expect us to win this game. However, i would like to see at least 2 goals from Chelsea, because i expect Norwich to score too.And I think the combo mata oscar hazard should provide firework.
