Pizy 18,907 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Have a bad feeling about this one. Stoke have actually been scoring recently and we always struggle wih crosses into the box and setpieces which are Stoke's specialty. Losing here would totally destroy the morale of the supporters and maybe even the players.Anything less than 3 points and the season is then about 3rd place and avoiding that stupid qualifier.

Stoke won't be able to live with us Saturday. I'd play Willian as #10 with Salah wide of him and Hazard the other. Matic back in the center and Ba up front, I mean fuck me we have had Schurrle up top, we may as well give Ba a little run out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better than playing with 10 men with Torres out there I suppose. I'd personally just give Ba the nod for the rest of the season if Eto'o remains out. Torres shouldn't pull on a Chelsea shirt again. Ba will have only small, bottom half sides to play against during the run in so he might actually be really useful. Roquila and Muzchap 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eto'o won't be back and if it's a choice between this and PSG I would sooner we left him to sit this out, bring Ba in and hope he does the business.

Sir Mikel OBE 4,920 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Need to sort out the set piece problem.Cech freaking out like yesterday against Crouch will be dangerous. The only place to be 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidzeret 2,257 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Sort of game where we will struggle to score even though we are expected to do well defensively. Cech Ivanovic JT Cahill Azpi Lampard Matic Shurrle Oscar Hazard Ba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionsden 4,689 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Jose has yet to show he has the tactical nous to break down packed defenses and stoke city this season have not only showed their trademark grittiness but also the ability to counter and even play possession based football (shocking I know). This could easily be another point dropped which would effectively end our title hopes (if it's not already over). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post! The only place to be 11,313 Posted April 3, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted April 3, 2014 Would say play Ramires alongside Matic for this one because he's out of the PSG game, but he's also still suspended from league games. Incredibly he's managed to reach a whole new level of being completely fucking useless. I'm all for starting Ba in this one as well. Not for any great tactical reason, but simply because why the fuck not?Back five stays the same, Matic in midfield, Mikel alongside him (because we probably need Lamps on Tuesday), Willian, Salah and Hazard all behind Ba. Give Oscar a rest and leave Schurrle to repeat his Arsenal performance against PSG. Muzchap, Special Juan, Sidzeret and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eligius 121 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Everyone not playing PSG should play.Ba, Salah, matic..If Hazard plays, we should really forget winning the second leg. Hazard should be dropped and Dave (if Cole can play). I do 4-4-2.Put ba and torres up front with Salah-Matic-Mikel-Schurrle. I would even consider playing Ake and kalas.
