bushman 2,043 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Can't believe some people are saying they don't mind if we lose this. Four days rest after the West Brom game, no game for another week and it's the FA Cup against a rival. Strongest possible team. Luiz nowhere near defence.It´s very simple. FA Cup is not important at this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fulham Broadway 17,313 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Massive blow to their confidence if we do them again. Jose rates the FA Cup and we have finely tuned millionaire athletes so no excuses. He will select a strong team. The only place to be 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luiz nowhere near defence.Luiz will probably start in defence if Cahill doesn't recover or isn't risked. Or it'll be Ivan in the centre with Cole coming in at left backMou said he'll rotate for this before last night's game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's the FA Cup, not pot.It´s pot to me. As you know & I already have explained to you several times, but....Let me try one more time. The CL is the most prestigious club competition in the world. Therefore, it is paid well for the top teams. Chelsea can use the money cos of FFP.Secondly, the PL title is also looked upon as a great trophy to have, my second choice.The rest of the trophies are all secondary to me. I hope, you can remember it now. Thanks a lot. Then, the obvious reason is to rest players, get them ready for PL & CL games, later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post! Benches not the shed 77 Posted February 12, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted February 12, 2014 Every cup is important , when you progress in the rumbelows cup you want to win it, when you get knocked out, it's a Mickey Mouse cup.The Full members cup was a big cup many years ago as it got us to Wemberley against Saturdays Opponents Man City, and to beat them 5-4 was as good as winning anything at the time, even though the last 15 minutes were a bit hairy.The FA Cup is the FA cup, there is NOTHING mickeymouse about this cup.Win at all costs, Mourinho has never undermined this cup.

Thendo 1,088 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 We have good depth in our squad and we will use it if needed. This doesn't mean we have to field a weak starting eleven, I can see some changes being made but not as drastic as some people here suggests, after all this is (thankfully) Mourinho we're talking about and he always aim to win silverware when given the oppertunity. I would start something like this: Schwarzer Ivan JT Cahill Cole Matic Luiz Schurrle Oscar Hazard Torres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea Legend 11 4,062 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 winning is contagious around this time and of year so too is losing.
