19:45 Kick Off (UK time)

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Play like we did in that second half and this will be a comfortable 0-2.

[Ainsley Harriott 2,732]

Now that we look like we're starting to click, I fully expect a win

[Barbara 15,149]

I'm not sure Torres will start... he should despite playing twice in a row, as Eto'o or Ba will have to be used against Norwich while Torres is suspended...

[Jase 43,479]

Cannot afford to drop points here. A must win game.

Mourinho won't say if Torres will start in the Champions League. He said Mata will against Bucharest

[edetarod 2,155]

first must win game of the season

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Since Ba is useless and Eto'o will no doubt play against Norwich, José might as well continue with Fernando up front. European football is his forté.

[BleedsBlue 1,549]

KDB needs to start this one.

[ChelseasMessiah 304]

Cech

Iva Luiz Terry Cole

Mikel Ramires

Oscar Mata Hazard

Torres

That's how it think it should be, although I think Jose will field Frank instead of Mikel.

[silviupastean 135]

can't wait for the steaua fans to start trolling the thread!

[Symbol123 175]

Would prefer if the same team from the second half starts, and see if they can keep up the good play. It's time we settle upon a starting XI

[silviupastean 135]

Steaua is weaker then they were last year. They lost 2 important players in Chiriches (Tottenham) & Rusescu (Sevilla) - last year's goal scorer against us. They haven't bought good replacements for those 2. We have strengthen! Plus we have Mourinho.

MUST WIN. simply cant afford a draw/lose.

cech

iva cahill JT bertrand

ramires mikel

oscar mata kdb

etoo(?)

cole and hazard need to get dropped. how longer to we keep conceding a whole wing to the oppositions. torres is in red hot form but he plays best when he is running at defenders. dont think he ll get a lot of oppurtunities to do that against bucuresti. so i ll play etoo.

[Laylabelle 9,381]

Must win game!Getting out the group be harder work if we loose it.Decent performance and and goals and volia

[yuvala 2,167]

we'll win no doubt.

[Eidur the Spider 4,515]

I'd play:

Cech

Azpi Cahill Terry Cole

Mikel Ramires

Willian Mata KDB

Torres

Got to keep Torres ticking over from his good performances, and give KDB some playing time too. Easily good enough to beat these lot! Going for a 2-0 with Torres and Ramires to score. Prove me right boys!
