Chelsea v Southampton

Not a bad argument, but I think there's a strong possibility we go back to doing what we did against West Ham and force Southampton onto the back foot.

The other option is simply to throw in Schurrle for one of the midfielders and let him and Hazard loose on the wings.

i feel the latter is a better approach. soton's full backs (shaw and clyne are a big factor in their play, dont know if shaw is fit or not since he went out against arsenal). keeping them busy by our wingers would be a safer as well as a more attacking approach.

A reaction is a must. Be really nice to see a fast and up tempo rhythm from KO.

Hope so,Think Essien should start,Mata,Azilp at right back,Bertrand left back should help but deffo need to freshen things up !

Is this your first trip? Post some picts & make sure you hit a couple of pubs up. Like the one across the street from the Bridge (The Butcher's Hook). That is the Birthplace of CFC.

First trip indeed. Will definately post pics! (probably after I come back)

I really wanted to go to a pub but I'm not 18 yet (only in march) so I suppose they wont let me in? Or will I be able to be there but just not order any alcohol ?

we're just not good enough for me to have confidence going into this game

i think we will struggle, no matter who plays

Agree.

Southampton is really playing some nice football there and certainly an very tough nut to crack. Arsenal was lucky Boruc had a brain fart moment and seized the win by the saint's two amateur mistakes. I doubt we will this kind of luck come Sunday.

Oh com'n guys !!!!!!!!!! We are F#@king Chelsea, and we are a wounded animal right now after Basel and West Brom at home, so we have something to prove.

They are Southampton, riding the crest of a wave right now, but punching way above their weight (in my humble opinion). If we are to win anything this season these are the games we MUST win, and I have full faith that we WILL win. And you all need to have faith in our team and manager too.

Every season one team barges its way into the top 4 or 5 for the first half of the season, then fades away to mid table mediocrity. This season its the Saints. We will show them who's the best and continue the chase for the Premiership. Lets have a bit more faith in our team (no matter how tough that seems at times)

Cech, Ivanovic, Terry, Cahill, Dave, Ramires, Lampard, Oscar, Hazard and Torres will all start this one, that is 10000000000000000000000000000000% sure. The other mid is probably Mikel. Now the line up is so predictable it is pointless even guessing anymore.

If you look old enough and you will soon be 18 anyway they might not notice, but technically yeah it is not legal.

Want to see the "tired ones" (those who were shit yesterday) have a rest, Oscar, Lampard, Ramires, Ivanovic...

Again Cm is an issue just like its been the last few seasons we need to have 4 world class midfielders at their peak to rotate and use all throughout the season!

Is it worth a shot then? I do look quite young (which I am), it's belieable that I'm 18 (especially since I'm like 6"2) but it's not like "wow this guy is definately 18+".

You should be fine if you're with someone who is 18 and then they can buy you drinks. It gets so busy on a matchday around SB that it shouldn't be an issue. Enjoy the game and bring your singing voice!

As for the team - please start Mata in the middle with Schurrle or Willian/Hazard on the wings. I just want to see Mata start a home league game. Feel for the guy.

How about

- Azpi - Iva - Terry - Cole

- Rami - Mikel

- Schurrle - Mata - Hazard

- Torres -

* If it was up to me I'd give KDB a shot instead of Rami who MUST rest. But it wont happen.. Lamps cant play another game, he really really needs a rest. So Rami and Mikel are the only options. Come to think of it, what happens when one of the CDMs get injured? we're stuck with only 2 of them, and they must rest sometime.

Willian left, Schurrle right and Mata behind Torres.

Oscar is not going to be played in the pivot anytime soon. Ramires had a bad game yesterday night but I fully expect him to play against Southampton.
