Closed West Ham v Chelsea

[zyzz 711]

So the international break is over and we play West Ham in 3 days?

Lampard will start for sure, hopefully he does bettet than his previous performances.

I sincerely hope that's not the case.

He has been nothing short of terrible for us and for England. It's a game worth 3 points, no need for passengers in the side in makeshift positions they can't fill. Enough is enough.

That's not accurate. He's had good games and bad games, so even his harshest critic would only call him inconsistent. I can point to games where he's been good as well.

What did he do? Piss in your pint once? Sorry about that.

Ashley Cole may be a doubt for Chelsea’s weekend Premier League outing to West Ham after he aggravated his rib injury during England’s clash with Germany, I read.

Now, why was he playing if he was not fit yet ?

Meaningless game & now he might be out for another week or so.

This is seriously a must-win. Lampard MUST sit out.

Not Azpi on the left again, please! We have a perfectly good LB in Bertrand yet Jose is almost certain to start a RB there!

Playing Azpi at LB has seen us defend narrow and to even counter oppositions playing with inverted wingers. While West Ham do that, they are not afraid or alien to the idea of having wingers on the correct side to put crosses in and stretch the play. We can't afford to let that happen, certainly not too often.

When do the Brazillians arrive in London btw? I guess they'll get a day off tommorow, and that will leave them with only 1 training session before our match at saturday. I can see José starting with Hazard/Mata/Schürrle to give these lads some extra rest, but on the other hand i doubt it he starts without Ramires.

[Mufassir08 2,400]

Very nervous about this one.

[NiclasCFC 2,582]

No training today?? So how we can prepare for match for 2 days?

retard.

Good point.

The good thing is that none of them played that much football during their international break, Ramires being the one who played the least if I'm not mistaken, which means he should be alright. Willian hasn't played that many games anyway as he took a while to get fit, and Luiz has been on the bench here, the only one I see Mourinho pondering resting is Oscar.

Again, there is no need for that mate!

Chris for is an absolute ***** he is almost as bad as Howard Webb I don't see why out of a world of ref's we always get the same clowns, Webb, Dean, Clattenberg. They don't follow the rules, they constantly engineer result and I tell you NOW he will give Wesy Ham every decision. It's so rubbish. If they got fined the way players and managers do they wouldn't do it. Pathetic.

[kellzfresh 7,229]

[The_Flash 1,144]

[ZanSnake 1,211]

Yes they will. These fools are so damn corrupt it isn't even funny. You said it yourself, these guys engineer results. Why? I am sure they have some off-shore bank accounts for retirement.

If we are clinical in front of goal, the referee will just be a spectator. We have to match West Ham in the physical battle and run are asses off. Its a who wants it more match. Form means little in local derbies.

[Special Juan 28,141]

Known our luck the ref will go in goal alongside the WHU keeper.

[Blue Warrior 109]

We better score then. Its time for graft and hard work. Leave everything on the field. No surrender!
