Closed Juventus v Chelsea

Really nervous. RDM is under fire and he has to win or to take point from Italy.

Good Luck!

There is another consideration when comparing Torres and Sturridge. How often they get dispossessed when we are attacking.

In the limited time Sturridge has played he gets dispossessed on average 1.3 times per match(due to loosing the ball to a defender or misplacing a pass leading to a turn over); Torres gives away possession on average 5.9 times per match. Also Torres is the player in the team with the lowest passing percentage at 70.1% on average. Sturridge in his two full games is 89% against United in the Capital One Cup(20 more passes than Welbeck* or Hernandez) and 85% against WBA(a game in which he made more passes than Moses and Torres).

This shows that despite the tag of a greedy player who never passes - statistically you are off the mark. Just a very bad decision maker sometimes. He had 3 key passes against United(third highest behind Mata and Hazard naturally); two key passes against WBA(as many as Moses & Mata had)

*Welbeck did come off at the 98th minute but he was still at 30 total passes compared to Sturridge's 56

Whoscored is an absolutely great site for nerds like me

If Sturridge is unfit I'd prefer we start Hazard but hopefully the rumors are not true

Wow! Now this is surprising .... Where did you get this line-up, Choulo? Azpi and Hazard, wow.

[chelseasun 13]

Chelsea is a great team,but for his history and for his skill Juventus is better...money don't replace history...sorry

No we dont have a record in our history of Moggi's and games played by referees till 99 minute so we cant lose a game or win a championship.

[Juventino 1]

Chelsea will play italian style at Turin. amusing.

He got it from Twitter most likely. It should be noted that this is all speculation..

[Hamin90 6]

See you after the match....Juventus is History and makes History...good luck for this match, but I think that Juventus will win

Agreed its only a predicted line up , i can't see Cesar playing on the wing , i know we have done it in the past with Betrand , i see us setting up to Attack to be honest.

I suppose it is. It is also in the belgian newspapers though. There they focus on the shock of sacrificing Torres for Hazard. Strange.

I really wanted to see Sturridge start this game, I'll be gutted if he's out like the rumours are saying.

The positive side in that line up is that you can adapt your formation to the 3-5-2-formation Juventus is playing in :

-------------------Hazard

----------Mata------------Oscar

Cole - ----Mikel - Ramires - Azpilicueta

--------- Luiz - Cahill - Ivanovic

I can imagine. I prefer hazard in a different role anyway btw ... He did it once for the belgian team without much succes
