nadavTKL 1,787 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Torres not even a sub. Interesting.Probably starting against United... i almost cry as im writing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stef 15 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Lukaku, I think he better get on loan like last year. Would probably be better for his chances to play with the national squad. I read this day that different Spanish teams are interested! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheva. 5,373 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I expect him to start against Man United on Monday.Lol, so he doesn't start against Hull or Villa, but will against the Premier League champions at Old trafford? yeah i can buy that....

Shane 2,275 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 As good as Lukaku is, I don't think he's the right man to lead our line this season. Still a season or two too soon for him. He isn't going to go from West Brom super sub to starting for a team challenging for the title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stingray 9,441 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 seems like it Lukaku only 3rd choice? Lets hope not Belgian connection is starting a revolution because of Lukaku :DI bet you all a thousand interwebz Mou will bring Lukaku very slowly. Pretty much like WBA did. And rightly so. He will come on more and more. So belgian connection - be cool like Fonzy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif 6,006 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 There isn't such a thing as Lukaku being "3rd choice". Manager's don't decide "ok you'll be third choice whenever there's a game" - especially not Mourinho. Players play depending on form and the particular game. Anyway, even if we were to use the whole '1st choice/2nd choice/3rd choice' thing, you don't become 1st choice at a top club like Chelsea when all you have under your belt *at the club* is a decent pre-season and 0 Premier League goals in 9 apps*. This is literally only our second game of the bloody season and because he hasn't started yet people are contemplating loan options etc. Some people expect far too much.

Keikoismad 162 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Well well welll, i don't really know whether I like this line-up or not. Cahill and Terry, I mean Villa knows how to counter attack. And also: Torres and Moses not even on the bench.And Lukaku does not start? Surely he has impressed more in pre-season than Ba, one would dare to think?

Jusek 2,031 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Torres not being even on the bench really made me smile. Interesting to see Mata on the right, if he plays there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cech's helmet 220 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Stop crying about Lukaku not starting FFS. we play 60 games a season. makes me cringe whenever a player is dropped by the manager people go on to assume the manager doesn't like the player etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Fong 2,776 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 why play Ba if he's reportedly off to roma?It really doesn't matter as far as he can win us the match.Look at Rooney, desperate to leave but still assist twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane 2,275 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 why play Ba if he's reportedly off to roma?Because he gives us the best chance of winning the game? Ba is more experienced then Lukaku.How about we all have a little bit of fucking faith in the manager for once and respect his decision? He gets paid to pick the team, not us.

Shakez 755 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Based on this line-up we can assume that either Ba or Lukaku will start against Man U next week. Depending on their performance today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
