Closed Swindon v Chelsea

[Korea 734]

Give me some AKE!

The Carling Cup is a chance for players who have overlooked so far to force their way into the team.

Romeu got a run Premier League starts due to performances in the Carling Cup two years ago, this is a chance for a few players here to do the same.

Carling cup? What's that?

You mean the Capital One Cup

League Cup for me ,,and will always be ..............till it becomes the Egg Cup ...(when the gooners win it )

[Laylabelle 9,300]

Ugly cup..though looks pretty with blue ribbons when we win it

[Waterfall 893]

Christensen should make the bench

[LDN Blue 7,903]

Just a word of caution about thinking we're gonna win like 10-0.. Swindon will have 11 players defending deep at all times. As we saw with Fulham & everyone else this season (pretty much) we're finding it tremendously hard to score 1 let alone 4, 5, 6.

[Laylabelle 9,300]

Ya defintly a tough game.Tthey have something to prove etc and not gana see us and freeze.Lower league sides have given us scares over the years...or the case of Barnsley...

[Kish9 50]

Even brentford gave us a scare

[LDN Blue 7,903]

...or the case of Barnsley...

That Kakuta penalty miss still runs in my mind!

[CHOULO19 24,332]

None of that tactical shit.. GO OUT AND DOMINATE

That is self-contradictory. You need to get your tactics right to dominate a game. You can't do it by just sending your players out and telling them "Go dominate the match". Even if the match is against Swindon.

WHY THESE MATCHES?

Hope Torres starts.......... He showed more in his cameo against Fulham than Eto (IMO) I still think he can cut it for us under Mourinho if he's given a fair chance.

We all said the same about Benitez

Maybe but our B-Team is 100x better today than it was back then.

We will have players like Willian, Lampard, Mata fresh and rested. I appreciate all those words of caution, but I'd have my money on a demolition. We have to start scoring at some point with the players we got ann an opponent like this is exactly what we need.
