Luis???

[stroey 2,525]

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

What a bench (swap Torres for a decent striker)

[Sheva. 5,373]

Is Luis injured or why isnt he playing?

I always felt he was the new boy least likely to start this game. I'm sure he'll start at home next saturday.

Ivanovic?, fuck..

Wasn't anything special in pre-season, will probably be eased into the team.

Good line-up, should get the 3 points in the bag! Salah not on the bench

It appears Luis is on the bench, no surprise really

Exactly what I said. But gradually I expect Luis to get that spot. Hopefully from the Leicester game. Time will tell.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Banter by José as Hilario starts. Confirmed.

[Thendo 1,088]

Now that's a strong XI! Would have like to see Luis start though, and MvG not even on the bench?

Anyway come on you blues! :blue scalf:

[Sheva. 5,373]

I'm happy for Schurrle, he deserves to start. Now he has to kick on and really solidify his place in the team.

[didierforever 7,349]

brilliant line up. only suprise is oscar for willian!!!!

COME ON CHELSEA!!!!

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Ivanovic?, fuck..

José is always wary of playing newly-promoted sides so perhaps it's not that much of a surprise.

[Dylan_91 90]

No Van Ginkel on the bench? he might as well just go out on loan

[Daniel1980 1,425]

It was pretty obvious that Jose isn't entirely convinced by Luis's form yet. I'm sure he will earn his place in the starting XI. It will just take some time.

[Pizy 17,860]

Get ready for some atrocious Ivanovic crossing.

Only damper on this lineup. Wanted to see Luis hit the ground running and be nailed on first choice. Seems Ivanovic will still be a huge part in the starting lineup.

[Svita 10 186]

salah?

[The only place to be 11,313]

Think that's the team I predicted and wanted.

No reason to make any more changes to the back five with Courtois already coming in.

Oscar's workrate will hopefully help Cesc and Schurrle has the ability to get a goal.

Fucking excited, not bricking it as much now.

Rambo, not even on bench, still suspended?
