CHOULO19 24,332 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Time to put in one of those accomplished, professional Chelsea performances of old where we just get the job done. Don't care about the scoreline, let's just do what we need to do and hopefully things will go our way. :blue scalf:That was what we should have done against Juve.

Kezza 1,965 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I think we'll go through. I just have a feeling it'll be a Napoli home performance and Juve will play like shit and get rolled! Thank god the games are played at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milan 17,957 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Just a pity Shakhtar is in Ukraine and not in Russia, as the game would be played two hours earlier so that we would know whether a win would really mean going through.Or maybe, it would put us under pressure and we would fuck it up lol.

Muzchap 8,966 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Ukraine + Russia = the sameI should imagine the Shaktar win bonus may be wired over from a certain person....I would be 100% confident that a phone call has already taken place, urging them to beat Juve...So it's up to the lads to perform and put some fucking pride into the Lion, not bottle it with a Cat meow performance...

Jype 6,398 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Am actually wondering how many fans out there will watch the Shakhtar v Juve game instead of this.Neither are televised here anyway so I'll have to look out for a stream. Might as well stream both matches from our group simultaneously as i happen to have two monitors on my computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slam Dunk 1,442 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 That was what we should have done against Juve.Come on, it wouldn't be a proper CL run if we didn't make it hard for ourselves at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reddish-Blue 2,506 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 If we can't beat this Danish team, then we have some serious problems amongst the players.I'm expecting to see a draw or Juve win in the group's other match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corner 456 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 ------------Cech-----------Azpi---Ivan---Luiz---Cole------------Mikel-------------Ramires---------Oscar--Mata-----Moses---HazardMy god, that looks good!The sooner Ramires is out of that pivot, the better. Even if that means switching to another formation, like the 4-3-3 you posted. He would excel in a 4-3-3 where he can gallop up and down the pitch all day long and let Oscar take over the initiating of attacks. And obviously, Moses up front sounds much better than Torres up front right now. It's worth a try. My only worry would be he may not have the composure to be a striker yet.Also, if Roman wants to play a high pressing possession game, then 4-3-3 is best. Three strikers closing down the opposition defence is always better than Torres doing it alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzchap 8,966 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 oh, you must know so much about it Haha - I don't know that much - but I do know lots of Russian + Ukranian people - and lots of money has flowed between Russia + Ukraine after the collapse of the 'Soviet Union'... So lot's of old allegiances were formed by the 'Super Rich' in both countries (granted a lot of those are now falling apart as some people have wasted their money, whilst others have flourished) - but like I said - 99% sure that RA has been on the phone to his friends in Ukraine, reminding them that they should put in a performance... I would also expect 'cash' to be a part of this arrangement...Especially as the favourite saying in both Russia + Ukraine is 'what good is a thank-you, I cannot spend it'.... So - apologies for the 'generalisation' - but in this case - I'm convinced I'm right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
