Closed Sparta Prague v Chelsea

[The only place to be 11,313]

Chelsea team for Sparta Prague: Cech, Azpilicueta, Ivanovic, Cahill, Bertrand, Lampard, Ramires, Marin, Mata, Hazard, Torres.

That is a fucking ridiculous team to put out. Every time you think Benitez has reached the zenith of being a cunt, he finds ways to top himself.

Whether you care about FA Cup ahead of EL that´s irrelevant to me. Therefore, I must add your name to the list of the clueless ones. As for that hockey tournament, I should have known, you English chaps know nothing about hockey.

I'll readily admit I know very little about hockey.

You just need to admit the same about football/Chelsea.

Well, it certainly looks like RAfa´s not resting anybody, is he ?

[Leif 6,006]

It's kind of sickening to me though I must concede that Mata is playing yet again. Poor guy. No reason why Benayoun couldn't play instead IMO.

Quite strong but great to see Marin on the flank!

[Rambo 1,729]

I'd prefer to win everything.

Rafa has put out the team he can win with. Do you think he cares about some plank like...?

Very little about hockey... I know. As for football an old school that fell asleep you are.

It looks like we are taking this game seriously. Like it or not.

It IS indeed a huge gamble with our thin squad. Please no injuries for this one.

[Sheva. 5,373]

We have Brentford next so another chance to rotate the squad and use the likes of Ba, Moses, Mikel and Benayoun.

I'm fine with this for this game. We don't have a league game until the 24th BUT in the Brentford replay and in the home leg against Sparta, many of these players need to be rested.

[Milan 17,838]

Please no injuries for this one.

Right! In this weather it is even easier to get injured.

[Milan 17,838]

double post

looking forward to the reception Petr will get, he is fans' favourite, no matter he stands in the opposite goal

Don't worry they will be rested for the fa cup match where we can play yossi mikel ba Moses terry and aki given the others time to rest for city..

[Heisenberg 1,824]

I dont give a fuck about this competition really, but i hope we'll win tonight, we deserve some joy.

Is English your first language? Is it in the top ten?

Fair point - what about the next rounds though?

Funny, now you are being obnoxious. Stay tuned & read what the others are posting here. Perhaps some might even rub on you ?

[BleedsBlue 1,549]

Ake should get some fair amount of game time because Lampard needs some rest.For this to really happen,I hope we're in a winning position before the hour mark.

[Hutcho 8,443]

Well not the team i would have picked in the slightest.. But hopefully he will give mata a rest early if we can get the game won...

On the brightside, hopefully a good win could give the whole team a bit of a lift and our next game is brentford..

[Leif 6,006]

Sparta Prague seem to play the exact formation which I wish we would use when we're using Mata + Hazard. I think they'll be incredibly hard to break down with a packed midfield. I'm expecting a really boring game, especially considering how good they are at home defensively, but will watch anyway.
