Good lineup but the CB combo may be dodgy

[Milan 17,853]

Juan Mata makes his 100th appearance for Chelsea today. In that time he has 29 goals & 40 assists!

[Milan 17,853]

Frank Lampard will become our equal-3rd highest appearance maker alongside John Hollins.

[Miracle 249]

If we lose this and Rafa is still in a job I will be absolutely amazed.

Prepare to be amazed

[Leif 6,006]

No balance in this side. I can just imagine Luiz running up, Lampard not covering (obviously), Ramires being a headless chicken with only Oscar of the trio tracking back at all. Crying DO YOUR STUFF DEMBA!

[Rubber bullets 1,183]

Why the Ramires/Lampard pivot?

Why is Ivanovic never dropped?

God's sake.

(4231) Foster, Reid, McAuley, Olsson, Ridgewell, Yacob, Mulumbu, Fortuné, Morrison, Dorrans, Long -

Couple of injuries, Shane Long has made it but Brunt hasnt which is a blow as his set pieces are a weapon for us. We've got a 16 year old on the bench. Great talent apparently.

We will be looking to play a simular way we did against Liverpool, keep it tight and try and nick something. Watch out for Mulumbu, easily our best player in that midfield, his partnership with Claudio Yacob has been formiddable

[Miracle 249]

Prepare to be amazed

Ugh.

I hope Terry is the one who books the taxi if he is sacked.

[kellzfresh 7,229]

Please let oscar play in the middle. He is useless in the wing, mata could play far better in the wing because of his crosses.
