The Skipper 20,609 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Watch out for that Tom Huddleston fella. Lad can pass the ball around. Bloody Hull, typical for them to hit form.I'd just stick Oscar on him tbh. Everything goes through him and due to his lack of speed Oscar could just shut him down thus shutting down Hull's whole system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pacquiao 1,834 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Pretty much every game we play until we're top of the table and have a gap is a must win. Agree with the lineup.yes but this game holds extra importance as a win would send us top for at least 24 hours! which allows us to put more pressure on Citeh and Arsenal, more then we have been able to in recent weeks.

Barbara 15,149 Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Saturday's early kickoff. Good chance to go top of the table and put pressure on Arsenal and Citybut somehow were in those matches we've struggled which might be a coincidence, but it seems we produce better when pressured to win, not playing first.But I'm confident about this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 but somehow were in those matches we've struggled which might be a coincidence, but it seems we produce better when pressured to win, not playing first.But I'm confident about this There was an article last season (in the mail I think) with some nutrition expert saying that the breakfast our players eat before early kick-offs was all wrong and linked it with the team under-performing when play on Saturday at noon. It's probably just some BS article by mail, but our results in the past couple of seasons at least in early kick-offs have been very bad for one reason or another.

Mustafa 885 Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I donno man.... I dont really like it when I read through the thread and I see 90% of people are confident we'll win this one pretty smoothly. Yes we've hit form. Yet we're better than them. But I hate being over confident !! We mustn't doubt these lot. Nevertheless, a win is what we need and what we must get. Come on Chels ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sidzeret 2,257 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Maybe we could see the all- Brazilian Luiz- Rami pivot for this one.Azpi.................Cahill....................Terry...................Cole...........................Luiz.........................Rami.......................Willian...........................Oscar..........................Hazard....................................Torres......................................The rest of the team just picks themselves.We need to give the WILL-OSC-HAZ trio time to gel and be the ultimate weapon to rip open defences.Eto'o had a good run of games to impress and he hadn't tbh and its time for Torres to get a similar run, maybe 2-3 games.

KevinAshburner 1,270 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 We need to play formation from now on as a 5-4-1. 5 defenders, 4 midfielders, 1 up front striker forward and park the bus keep possession and piss off the other team and frustrate them and pass the ball around and when we get the ball from their half knock it up to the up front striker and counter attack with pace while defenders are deep in our half or when we steal the ball from their player after a corner kick and pass it and knock it forward with pace and to the up front striker with pace can rush down field and enough space and time and less defenders in his area and knock it in the goal or the up front striker forward can bring the keeper out of his goal and shoot a side footed ball around or little chip over goalkeeper head/body and score it.It is just a thought.
