Mufassir08 2,400 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Fucking hell!!First Terry was rested just as a precaution and should be available against wba then he is not ready for wba but will be fit for city and now he aint fit to play against city as well and I wont be surprised if we hear the same words next friday .

NishC300 1,865 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 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.Agree! If we knock City out we'll only have Arsenal/Liverpool from the top 4 challenging us from the cup. They also have to keep their game against Barca in mind.

Jase 43,479 Posted February 14, 2014 Author Share Posted February 14, 2014 I don't think it was over the top, Wenger is an irritating fool, who is actually "a specialist in failure".These two have drawn swords before, Mourinho always mugs him off, on and off the pitch.Agree. Don't think it was OTT either. Mourinho, after all, was only speaking about football terms in Wenger being a failure (not overall as a person in life) and he was only speaking the truth.

Chelsea Legend 11 4,062 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 City's schedule is getting really congested with the 4 competitions and their squad depth really isn't great. I just wonder if forcing a replay tomorrow will be more damaging to them in the EPL than knocking them straight out. I agree but forcing a replay isn't something we can't control. We will have to play extremely well to best them at Etihad again and very well to get the draw. I hear you though a draw wouldn't be as damning for us as it would be for them.

The Skipper 20,609 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Luiz and Ivanovic at CB then (who are a decent pair based on their previous outings together at CB) if JT and Cahill can't make it. Should be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gabrimur 69 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Premier and Champions are the priority. I wait minutes for the bench, but Mourinho does not seem a person want to throw a competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wimbledonblue 94 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Now we can rest players. HAZARD and willian shiuld be anywhere near the pitxh. Same goes for etoo and matic. Oscar needs to regain his form. Cole will surely get a match. GC shiuld be rested too.SchwarzerAzpi DL JT ACRAMBO mikelSalah osxar schurrleTorres.A draw would be good enough for me but think with city playimg barca 3 days later and barelt 3 days after their matxh against Sunderland, expect them to make whole sale changes.Why should we rest players?

oman43 45 Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Not confident about this. Both terry and cahill out is not looking goodTerry has been unreal this season, but cahill for me has also been great.

mediator 2,026 Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 I hope we will see a bit more of Kalas tomorrow.Something like this :Azpi - Ivan - Kalas - Cole----- Matic - Luiz -------Salah -- Willian --- André--------- Torres ------------Solid at the back, Matic and Luiz in the pivot (they were fabulous) Why Willian as Cam ? Because he made a huge pressure on Yaya Touré Rest Hazard and Eto'o didi007, sdrcfc, AswinR and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Flash 1,144 Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 I'm worried about this. They will be desperate to beat us first time this season and means the most. If we could please have one of those 3-1 vs Utd games instead of a WBA performance that would be greatPlease Come on Chelsea, we can beat them sdrcfc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara 15,149 Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Cahill and Terry out and we'll probably rely on Iva and Luiz or worse, Luiz and one of the young guys (including Kalas). and that happens to be against the team with the best attack in Europe.Well, good luck for us! I'm not saying we'll lose, I'm just saying we need good luck.I was very confident in the first two matches - predicted 2x1 wins for us in both games - in the match threads - but for this one I'm not so sure. I hope we can scrap at least a draw... but I won't predict a loss. I can't The_Flash 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
