Closed Man City v Chelsea

[lionsden 4,689]

The best line up imho to stand a chance against city

Cech

Ivanovic Terry cahill Azpilicueta

Matic Oscar

Willian Lampard Hazard

Ba

Azpilicueta over cole as he's more competent at this point in time to deal with the threat of Navas

Matic and oscar gives us the combination of physicality, combativeness, strenght and composure which will be key to controlling the game better against them and the main reason for Oscar over Ramires (pipe dream I know)

Lampard in the hole gives us a genuine goal threat and ba's physicality and hold up play is superior to Eto'o. if Torres was fit, he would have been the preferred choice. hazard-willian on the wings is a no brainer.

I am so excited about tonight. ManCity can play really dirty sometimes and this is going to be like The Clash of the titans I hope Mou has a good plan and KTBFFH!

I am dreading this game. We either try and win or defend to the f****** hilt .

We can't afford not just for the points but the morale and confidence of olayers of Jose and fans even to lose and lose big

Come on Chelsea we are all with you. We shall be the 12th Man.

Ramires is key for our pressing, ok, technically he's poor, so against teams who park the bus he's ineffective, but in games where teams come at us, he's a must. His stamina and athleticism will also help on the counter. City have Yaya, we have Matic, they have Fernandinho we have Ramires.

You can say he messes up a lot in the final third with his decision making, which is true, but he also starts many of them with his interceptions, on the break his pace will be vital.

I have a good feeling about today, i really do.

Biggest game of the season, come on Chelsea, make us proud

[bushman 2,043]

Jose scrapped the bus....?

[ZOS 580]

if Rambo, Matic (if given the chance), Oscar and Hazard perform tonight, I think we've a great chance ... the game will be decided in midfield

COME ON CHELSEA!!

I just got in touch with Jose, he wants to play Rami, Matic & Frank in the central trio. These three to block off Fernandinho & Ya-Ya.

Btw anyone know what kit we're playing with, black?

Lol at their +24 GD, making a mockery of the competition.

This is not about the teams. We have the most powerful weapon: Mourinho. Besides, we've already won against them a few weeks ago. And they had a fit Sergio Aguero.

Alan Pardew was right about Pellegrini.

few weeks ago? More like 3-4 months ago...

[Parky 739]

Anyone putting a bet on us? We're paying $4.30 for the win. Might go a $100 for us to win.

KTBFFH!

What did Pardew say ?

[TrippingStep 336]

This match scares me.

What worries me the most is that i fear goal opportunities for City at the far post and on second ball on the edge of the box.

Why don't we make this a little exciting?

If Chelsea win, I'll make a donation of £25! BETTER WIN NOW CHELS

If I lose, I of course expect to be equally compensated. But mod status would suffice (kidding)

Nah, if Chelsea win against Man City, expect a £25 donation coming your way

Heck, I'll throw in another £10, the nerves are killing me! Football gods, take my money and let Chelsea win!

If we draw, I'll donate £10. If Hazard scores, £5 for every goal. If Cech scores, £50
