Justin_3d 1,140 Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Time to bring out the 4-4-2 or the diamond midfield again? MataTorres-DrogbaBut to play a 4-4-2 don't we need wingers?We got none!Just play the same formation that we used against Napoli. It's working, don't change it.Only thing will change is Sturridge for Torres.After today's game Torres merits that chance, and Sturridge to be bench.No one will be shocked if that where to happen.

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Didier.I think so too, but it's not that easy for Robbie. If Nando starts and does not perform, he will be accused of costing us the game. If DD starts and Nando does not score for a while, roberto will be blamed.

BleedsBlue 1,549 Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Performance today will definitely increase his market value and maybe perhaps some more clubs will be interested in him.Today we all have seen what he is capable of and if Chelsea decide to part ways with him then I am sure he won't be short of suitors.Lets just hope he continues this good form.

If Nando starts and does not perform, he will be accused of costing us the game. If DD starts and Nando does not score for a while, roberto will be blamed.For me it is a non-starter. Yes the spaniard has been good today, but we should remember he has just come out of a drought of 24 goalless games. One good game against a mid-table side of the Championship shouldn't guarantee him to be in our starting lineup. He has a lot of thing to prove, while Didier has been consistent untill now, even if he hasn't been in his best form, he has been rather good, and he has been very good when it did matter (cf : against Valencia, City and Napoli).

Ramires will be most likely starting as a right winger and I think it will be risky if we change our formation so that two center forwards can play together.Only solution is that RDM plays Torres as a left winger instead of Kalou but then what will happen to Sturridge and the rest. I just feel so bad for RDM,hes going to have a really hard time choosing his best 11. tmessy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just feel so bad for RDM,hes going to have a really hard time choosing his best 11.You can't start him on the basis of one good match. Let's not forget that he will not be facing Leicester City's defense.Besides, what I claim that if he starts and fails to score, it will ruin all the confidence he built up in this game, so it is vital we keep him for a game that he is more likely to score in.

Last time I checked it was Chelsea FC, not Torres FC.I am not saying that we should play Torres instead of Drogba but I am sure the team can perform well if Torres plays as a winger with Drogba.Lets not forget we play 3 crucial games(CIty,Spurs and Benfica) in a matter of 9 days.Surely you don't expect Drogba to start for all 3.
