Closed Chelsea vs Hull City

[Ankit 3,176]

With today start- Lampard overtakes Scholes, in starting most opening PL games.

Super Super Frankie Lampard!!

[LeonDavis23 371]

lukaku will start against villa, that seems the more dangerous game after yesterday

[blu35_army 550]

Where's Dave, bertrand and luiz???

[DanishBlue 426]

Is Mata at the bench?

[King11Didier 916]

Wish good luck for the boys and good start of the season. :blue scalf:

[Bir_CFC 3,455]

Not sure why we need both Ba and Lukaku on the bench. Surely one could have been benched for Azpi or Bertrand.

Where's Dave, bertrand and luiz???

Luiz injured. Dave played 3 days ago far away. Not sure about bertrand.

COMMONNNNNN :blue scalf: :blue scalf: :blue scalf: :blue scalf: :blue scalf: :blue scalf:

[Shakez 755]

Moses not benched

[Leif 6,006]

Torres has 3 goals in his last 4 starts for us. If like some members say - we shouldn't really judge players from pre-season - surely he's automatic first-choice ahead of a guy who's yet to score a Premier League goal for us?

[Hutcho 8,443]

Relax. I think it won't be a few weeks til we see our true best 11 as such anyway. I'm sure lukaku will get some minutes off the bench.

[didierforever 7,349]

LOL, that's why we are not Mour aren't we...

Michael Essien is . that's the official team sheet right now in London. what do you mean by fake?

speechless but all i can say right now is IN JOSE I TRUST. because that line-up just fucking screwed my head. the idea of watching that dumb blonde play ahead of ba and lukaku is killing me inside.

also please dont say that essien is a defender. obviously he can play as a defender but i would rather prefer a jet-lagged azpi and a 100% fit and functional bertrand ahead of him.

[Jusek 2,031]

So fucking pumped up! We have some serious super-subs on the bench, no frigging Benayouns.

C'mon you Blues! :cfc:

[bushman 2,043]

The game has not started yet & we already have plenty of dribbles here.

[Chelsea? 892]

Weird subs. Hope this means. Mata and lukaku will start Wednesday.

[Toli 977]

with the same line-up, benitez would've been screwed on here

mata is tired. luiz injured. azpi tired too. so not so many options available. why torres is starting though, I think nobody can understand...

[EBH 283]

I am very upset Torres is playing... everybody knew he is not good, I think... it is bad for Mourinho to under rate Hull. Maybe they play well today, maybe there is only one good shot, and Torres misses.. then we lose 2 points from pride

In all honesty, for a match like Hull, no disrespect to them, its better to have options like Lukaku and Demba Ba on the bench to rely on rather than have 50 mill flop and never ever counting on him to deliver anything special coming off the bench.
