Finally some real football. Friendlies suck.

Hoping Oscar can put in a good performance.

Expect Diego to score and think Fabregas will put in a strong performance along my guy Matic, who always scores a 7 at the least so no worries there.

Is Luis injured or why isnt he playing?

Chelsea FC ‏@chelseafc 1m

Subs v Burnley: Cech, Zouma, Filipe Luis, Mikel, Willian, Torres, Drogba. #CFC

Conservative bench. Cover for all four defenders, Mikel to close it out, Willian to dribble at them and two strikers. A sort of planning for the worst and the best.

No Van Ginkel because, well why would you? If we're not winning then what does he really offer?

Luis on the bench because Ivanovic and Azpi are solid and he can come on if we're looking to attack more.

No Salah because if they're defending deep then there's no real room for him to get behind and exploit.

I don't know how Schurrle gets a start really.

I can't remember the last game he started and actually did something. His world cup impact came from the bench and his impact here should continue to be from the bench IMO.

But u know, hopefully he turns into Ronaldo for this game.

Away to Stoke where he scored two goals. Away to Fulham he scored three goals. Who exactly is the other choice? Willian? When's the last time he started a game and did anything? When's the last time he started on the bench and did anything?

He doesn't need to be Ronaldo, he needs to be Schurrle.

Why shouldnt Filipe be match-fit? he didnt have a WC under his belt and played a big part of our pre-season. If Oscar and Schürrle are already match-fit, Luis should be too. Dont get why we need a defensive-minded LB against a newly promoted team...but well, hopefully we'll win nonetheless.

Go on Chels :)

To be Schurrle is to be inconsistent.

A player shouldn't be in a starting line-up because he scored goals a year ago.
