Closed Newcastle v Chelsea

[Mufassir08 2,400]

Newcastle are now a different team with all their new signings and it will be very tough match but going by our recent record of beating good teams like everton,arsenal etc but throwing away points against the likes of Qpr,soton and reading i think we will win this one.

They have new players, but they can't still play together.

Let's trash them

[SinineUltra 1,164]

Cech
Azpi, Cahill, Terry, Cole
Ramires, Lampard
Oscar, Mata, Marin
Ba

Chill....we got this

[Jase 43,479]

Benitez said in his PC that Mata and Cech will be available for selection. Luiz still out injured. Said Terry is an 'option' though...

[Ankit 3,176]

Rafa Benitez confirms that both Petr Cech and Juan Mata trained and are available for selection, but David Luiz is still injured. #CFC

Benitez: "I'm very pleased for Ashley Cole if he reaches the 100 cap mark for England, it's a fantastic achievement." #CFC

Benitez: "It's brilliant for Cesar Azpilicueta to be called into the Spain squad, that was one of the targets we set for him." #CFC

Benitez: "Newcastle did well against Aston Villa, hopefully they won't be as happy at the end of tomorrow's game." #CFC

Benitez: "Hopefully, in the next couple of months we can maintain our consistency and keep winning games." #CFC

Another draw i think.

[MetsajCFC 1,255]

Win for us, quite sure of it

[Hutcho 8,443]

Bad time to play them. Hopefully they haven't fully learnt to play with each other yet and their defence is still shaky. Demba has to play in front of his old team. Show them what they lost.

[Sovieticus 743]

Demba has to play in front of his old team. Show them what they lost.

That would a real lesson for them

[edetarod 2,155]

i was thinking, we can play 3-5-2 with Azpi and cole as wingbacks and Torres and Ba upfront

the 3 centre backs of Terry, Cahill and Ivan

and midfielders Ramires, Mata and Oscar

[xPetrCechx 13,546]

Ba is counting the seconds till rafa exit. shame that the FSW is playing with torres instead of him.

[Rmpr 8,977]

If Torres and Bertrand start I will seriously double my post count with huge rages towards Benitez...

[Sheva. 5,373]

Ba will start, but please no Bertrand on the wings. He's a left back, who offers nothing when played so high up the pitch. Give Marin or Benayoun a chance there instead.

[bushman 2,043]

Cech & Mata are back, that´s good news.

Now, all Rafa needs is to think a bit before Chelsea comes on the pitch as to when to subbed players.

Then, Chelsea just might win here.

[Blue Gino 377]

Give Brana and Mata the day off. Cech, Azpi, Cahill, Terry, Cole, Lampard, Ramires, Oscar, Torres, Ba, Marin. 4-3-3

[Stingray 9,441]

Hopefully, in the next couple of months we can maintain our consistency and keep winning games.

This I find truly funny hearing from Rafa. It implies you HAVE something if you want to maintain it, not?

Again, Benitez brainfarts in his window dressing talks. All sophistry it is.
