Closed Cardiff v Chelsea

[Madmax 9,219]

Have to say I'm disappointed with that lineup. No start for Ake, who's been with the first team squad for what, 6 months now? No start (or even bench) for Baker, who's been outstanding at the youth level? Swift's on the bench but will he be brought on? Must be demoralising for these youngsters that their work during the season is not recognised, even when we've got absolutely nothing to lose.

Edit : Fuck, nevermind. Disregard post. Forgot all about u21 playoff.

Don't see the need for Mikel and Matic, but as long as we win it's all good.

I'm gonna watch our match and then avoid twitter at all costs. Don't want to see that cunt Pellegrini lifting the trophy and celebrating or GOD FORBID Liverpool luck out and get it.

HELL NO!

I would love to have seen Ake play with Matic, rather than Mikel.

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

Nice to see John Swift on the bench. He and Baker are the best players in our U-21's. They are like twin towers, steamrolling all that stands before them at that level.

Nice to see Tomas Kalas get a chance to show what he can do again. This one will be different from Liverpool as we will be dominating possession and there will be less of a screen protecting him.

Nice to see Cole and Azpilicueta start together in their natural positions. Something gives me a feeling we might actually see some decent overlaps for once.

And I hope this is Torres' last game in a CFC shirt. It's time to move on dude.

Matic is a nailed-on starter and I think it's just a nice move to give Mikel a start in what is probably his last game. I'm not his biggest fan but he's been a stalwart of this club for a long-time and deserves our thanks for that.

Would be made-up if he could get a goal. :blue scalf:

Would've liked Van Ginkel and Baker to feature today,but it's good to see Swift on the bench and Cole as captain.

Exactly. Mikel may not be the most flashy or exciting player we've had, but he tries his best and doesn't make many mistakes. His game is dull and lackluster but he did his specific job well enough.

He should move on and be a key player for someone else rather than a seldom used role player here.

C'mon Boys .. finish the Season in Style.

[Special Juan 28,141]

Let's go out in style, but i have a funny feeling this will be a rather drab affair.

[boshman 1,073]

Ash as captain on his final game. Makes me smile. Farewell Ash. Thanks for the memories!!

[Nike 373]

3-0

Oscar, torres x2

The south american is not even playing, so, it should be 5-0.

Oscar x2, torres x2 and a random goal from the defender!

[Jusek 2,031]

Hazard will put up a show today.

Yeah, I was talking from a purely tactical standpoint, but what you said makes sense.
