West Ham v Chelsea

Need a strong team to cope with the physicality that Big Sam is going to impose on us.

................Cech.......

Ivan.....Cahill......CLL.....Cole

..............Luiz....Rami...........

Shurrle.....Oscar....Mata

...............Torres..............

After yesterday, I'd like to see some creative play from the deep, hence Luiz as the deepest player in the pivot which can also unleash Ramires.

Azpi starting will be a huge blow defensively as Ivanovic is better in aerial duels.

Mata deserves his start after the last game.

Everytime Shurrle plays, we seems to be in control. Easy pick.

Easy 3 points if we can get our shit together and go up the table before December.

We'll struggle just like we did against Villa. We can't handle teams that lump the ball forward. If we don't win then are our title hopes are already in trouble.

WIN WIN

CHELSEA'S GOTTA WIN

Cech

Azpi-Luiz-Terry-Bertrand

Mikel-Ramires

Willian-Mata-Hazard

Eto

Enough with this "Waiting for them to make a mistake crap"

Azpi and Bertrand providing support and width.

Luiz in. We need him to link up the defence with the rest of the team.

Mikel in. With both Azpi and Bertrand pushing up high and Mata on the 10 we need a bit more protection.

Mata on the 10 because he just offers us more going forward.

Home against West Ham I might agree.

But the one thing you can guarantee is that they'll come at us. It's admirable, but it's predictable. Yesterday's team is probably better suited to playing in this fixture with the possible inclusion of Schurrle and Torres.

It'll be physical, it'll be a battle but counter-attacking opportunities will exist and I think we've got a great chance.

If Jose insists on using counter attack football in this match I can see a repeat of the 3-1 loss last time. One thing is for sure, WE ARE NOT GONNA STEAMROLL THEM.

Isn't it precisely because we won't steamroll them that we might have opportunities to hit them on the counter? :blink:

They'll come at us and that will leave spaces behind.

Oscar and Mata together? no..

That's the general consensus after that Newcastle match but i disagree as long as Oscar is told to stay in the hole and Mata in the wings. Shurrle provides a more direct classical wing play from one flank and Mata and Oscar can work those passes to break down the opposition on the other side.

Our failures lately are never justified by blaming the partnership pf Oscar and Mata.

Oh by steamrolling I meant like dominating controlling the whole match :P Yeah if they come at us that would suit us hehe

not even expecting a point off this game. its in november, away from home and against a team that is physically very strong and hence our achilles heel.

cech

azpi iva JT bert

rambo mikel

schurrle mata hazard

ba.

1-2 loss.

Ivanovic could be useful as a CB when it comes to aerial threat.

Ba??? seriously. Just cause he's tall?
