Melanicus 5,208 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Probably the only time Chelsea will visit Ljubljana and I won't be able to see it live at Stožice Stadium. Fuck my life. Oh, and by the way. Olimpija is really shit, I'm surprised the club didn't go bankrupt already. Expect goal fest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nono 791 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I mean no disrespect to Olimpija Ljubijana and Wolfsberger but does anyone know why have this season's friendlies been arranged against weaker teams ? Why haven't we gone to the US like we do every season ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzchap 8,966 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I mean no disrespect to Olimpija Ljubijana and Wolfsberger but does anyone know why have this season's friendlies been arranged against weaker teams ? Why haven't we gone to the US like we do every season ?Because of the ridiculous travel arrangements during a WC season... Let desperate Utd go to the US - Van Gaal already saying next year it won't happen.These teams might be considered 'poor' - but for them it's the game of their lives and like RZ last night, they will put a solid shift in, be organised and hard to break down. This is important in the development of the team and fitness (main priority)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why haven't we gone to the US like we do every season ?Just looking to avoid all the travelling post a WC period in which the team comes back in a staggered manner.And in terms of quality of opposition, we're not going to be facing worse teams than we did last season - Malaysia All Stars / Kitchee Sports Club.

I noticed spudz wasn't on that graphic. They are doing a bit of traveling here in North America too. I know they played in Seattle & Toronto. I believe their last match will be in Chicago.

Chelsea Legend 11 4,062 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 So Jose confirmed that Costa, Fabregas, Torres, Azpi and Cahill have trained well enough to get 45mins in the squad for this game! I would imagine that means Swift, Solanke and perhaps Bamford are done for the preseason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheva. 5,373 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 So Jose confirmed that Costa, Fabregas, Torres, Azpi and Cahill have trained well enough to get 45mins in the squad for this game! I would imagine that means Swift, Solanke and perhaps Bamford are done for the preseason?Solanke definitely. We'll use 3 strikers when Lukaku joins the team, so Bamford can still play in 1 game.As for Swift, he's been playing on the wings where we only have 2 players in Brown and Salah, so i think he'll still play.

Myself 793 Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 http://www.nkolimpija.si/ Man, this is probably a once in a lifetime opportunity for them, the Ljajabajabja players are probably so pumped for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
