We should drop Oscar for Willian/Cesc in the beginning of the season and see how everything works out from there.

Oscar needs rest and fans need to see their dream scenario of having Cesc/Willian play cam.

So, I would go with

Matic-Ramires

Cesc

Willian-Hazard

If Ramires is in the pivot let alone a starter next season I will bash my fucking head in.

Courtois

Azpi-Cahill-Terry-new LB

Matic-Fabregas

Schurrle-Oscar/Willian-Hazard

Costa

This is how I'd play, with Willian going to the right if Oscar performs well and if Schurrle isn't playing good.

Lmao at everyone dropping Willian for Schurrle because of the World Cup.

----------Courtois

Azpi - Zouma - Terry - Luis

-Pogba-Fabregas-Matic-

--Willian-Costa-Hazard

Old school 4-3-3 with Fabregas furthest forward.

Why no Cahill?

Mainly because Centre back is one of the safest positions to develop a player, especially in a well organised side like this one. So with a hot prospect like Zouma, I'd like to see Mourinho take a chance on him.. plus, Cahill would still get plenty of game time with a 33 year old JT.

I don't think much on this site has made me cringe more than that.

Then you need to get a sense of perspective, because I once read a bushman post..

To be honest I hate this kind of topic every pre-season.

Probably the starting line-up in the beginning of the season will be way different from what we will see at the end of it.

I bet in the winter market Mourinho will buy another buy to fix a weak point in the squad...

What's more exciting about this thread is realizing the amount of options we have right now. When I first joined the forum, Mazacar was pretty much immutable and we had like no options for pivot. We saw a lot of Ramires - Mikel IIRC. And our strikers back then... HAHAHAHA. Well, let's skip this part.

To think now we got a midfield of Fabregas, Matic, Hazard, Willian, Schürrle, Oscar, Salah, Van Ginkel, Mikel, Ramires... possibly Pogba. Just let it sink for a moment. There are just so many ways we can build it, we have it all right now. We can build the midfield pretty much in any way we want, defensive, offensive, slow, fast, based on possession, based on directness, based on pressing. Our defense looks very good too. Terry is still a solid CB, Ivanovic is a beast and I fucking love him, Cahill has proved he can be a good CB, Zouma has every tool to become a top CB in the future and so does Aké. Azpi was the steal of the year when we bought him, probably even better than Fabregas in the bang-for-buck ratio, and Luis has everything to succeed on the left. Courtois is amazing and so is Cech. If Costa doesn't flop this is probably the best squad I've ever seen Chelsea have since the times of young Terry, Lampard, Cech, Drogba e Co.

And the icing on the cake is we've got Mourinho with us. We've come a long way in these past years, I'm really confident we have a real chance in every tournament if Mourinho makes the right choices, and knowing Mourinho he probably will.

This wall of text is meant to conceal the fact that I'm having trouble coming up with the best line-up.
