Closed Derby v Chelsea

Didn't Jose laugh at Benitez for playing Luiz in midfield and Ramires on the wing?

He has done both himself...

Sorry but to most English fans the F A Cup is VERY important

You dont need to be sorry. I know this is important to a lot of you and I trully respect that!

However, I just think using some of our unused players wouldnt hurt...

I never said we should lose because this is a mickey mouse cup or whatever. I only posted saying I wished the like of KDB, Baker, Kalas, Bertrand, etc, were in the starting lineup!

Jose is only rotating about 18 players in the EPL and UCL. So I thought the FA Cup match against Derby County could be a nice opportunity to try a few new faces. That is all!

I know we dont want Chelsea to have to play a second game. But using those 11 players or others makes no difference (imo). We cant know whether or not a determined team will be able to not draw. This team can end up drawing while a 'weaker' team could end up winning by 5-0. We will never know!

reminds me of the early chelsea times after mourinho left.

the essien-mikel midfield doesnt work.

ramires is the spark in our midfield. now hes playing right wing.

No brainer kind of play

[5354 204]

the team is moving the ball way too slowly

[lionsden 4,689]

What an uninspiring team. Mourinho is such a liar, who remembers his comments early on in the season?

He'll never change.

Shame on you for believing a leopard can change its spot.

Shit half. Shit lineup.

[Polo7 3,496]

Nothing. absolutely nothing

[1chelsea 864]

Damn Essien, Eto and mikel not trying to score or make the keeper try to save a shot
