Closed Chelsea v Liverpool

[CHOULO19 24,332]

CHELSEA: Cech, Ivanovic, Ramires, Torres, Mata, Oscar, Mikel, Hazard, Terry, Azpilicueta, Bertran

subs: Turn, Fer, Cahill, Rom, Marin, Moses, Sturr

Surprised to see Iva-Terry at the back but more surprised to see Dave thrown in the deep like that.

A win today would make me the happiest man in the world, because I hate them like no other team. I have a feeling that there'll be plenty of goals in this game, let's just hope we score more than them.

Damned Torres again ...

Terry and Iva center back, interesting!!

[Hutcho 8,443]

Azpi Ivan Terry Bertrand....

Interesting that is a surprise to me, but we will see. Good to see cesar given another chance at RB.

Yeah, it's 5-3-2, which can change to 3-5-2

David Luiz ‏@DavidLuiz_4

I'm sad! I wanted to play today,but I can't because of a tonsillitis... Come on #CFC u have my support!

That sounds good to me, let them invite pressure, and see if hazmatcar can break them down.

David Luiz ‏@DavidLuiz_4

Well that explains Luiz's absence.

[Hutcho 8,443]

FUCK SAKE.

Wrong thread..

[Pizy 18,519]

From 4 clear at the top to 3rd now. We MUST win this game!

The Ivan-Jt is the partership that conceded 4 goals at Anfield last season, just to give a pessimistic tone to the match.

Also the partnership that won us the FA cup last season

I don't understand why Robbie is so against partnering Cahill and Terry? We kept a few clean sheets towards the end of last season with those two playing together and were England's first choice pairing before Cahill's injury prior to the Euros.

Ivanovic IMO has been pretty poor this season but seems to be a real favourite of Robbie's.

No Luiz-Cahill in defence? We're not going to concede as many goals as I thought then. But Bertrand still doesn't convince me. He's far from Cole's qualities.
