Closed Monterrey v Chelsea

[Milan 17,878]

this is how you should leave the dressing room and start the second half. fucking brilliant

[Hazardinho 88]

Hazard is doing so great today! I saw all his matches at Lille and I'm 100 percent sure he will show the same for Chelsea. Please give him the time to become one of the best football players in the world!

[Wavy Crockett 190]

This is the first time Torres has scored in 3 successive games for us (assuming the goal isn't counted as an own-goal)

Rafa = motivational genius

[Dy-lan 142]

WE WANT MARIN.

WE WANT LAMPARD.

WE (some of us) WANT STURRIDGE.

Danny didn't travel with the team.

[Leif 6,006]

GET MY SEXY LAMP ON!

[Milan 17,878]

Cech also doing his part in the game!

[The Skipper 20,593]

Mikel and Luiz have absolutely bossed the midfield. Two massive units.

[Hazardinho 88]

Mikel off for Lampard please

[Rmpr 8,977]

Arent we actually playing 4-3-3?

[Leif 6,006]

Hurry up and get Messi on.

Edit: Marin*

[Hutcho 8,443]

danny has an A next to his name along with JT who also had one. I assume it means they arn't there but can be called up if someone gets injured.

[Slam Dunk 1,442]

WE WANT MARIN.

WE WANT LAMPARD.

WE (some of us) WANT STURRIDGE.

Sturridge can't play, as far as i'm aware. There's a mark on the teamsheet next to his name, same with Terry, same with Humberto Suazo (who returned home).

Looks like Benitez has moved Hazard to the right to help Azpilicueta. Good move.

[Sheva. 5,373]

Keeper thinks he's playing FIFA.

[SeB 1,281]

I know, wasnt discussing Luiz, just the double zonal marking.

Your comments about our players were spot on.

I expect professional players to understand how to skirt a player diving high up, with the type of pass and how to behave to fill the gap created.

We can do that against a very very weak and flat opponent. I'm fond of organisation with close lines of players, for me 4231 has to be a 433 in possession with the CAM in between a pressing role without the ball (like Ramires' from last season in 433) and a support one with the ball (to the main striker, to the flanks).

For me that's not to one of the players in the DP to press high up. If he does, the CAM has to drop to fill that gap (what Oscar does brilliantly)

[Milan 17,878]

Keeper thinks he's playing FIFA.

This is quite normal for South American goalkeepers actually.

[Leif 6,006]

OH DAT MIKEL PASS

[NattyBlue 44]

What a ball by Mikel!

[The Skipper 20,593]

GET MIKEL TO SCORE
