[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Keeeeep pushhhiiinngg

[Diego 433]

Its offical i'm turning gay Diego Costa

[LAM09 6,552]

Cesc + Costa = Special

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Costa for the hattrick please

[mediator 2,026]

Love them, dieGOAL and fabrePASS

[The Skipper 20,593]

In my opinion the only way we'll get that balance right is going 4-3-3. We can get away with Cesc-Matic against the Burnley's of this world but any team with ambition will cause us problems.

Yeah, against teams that can play, like Swansea, I definitely agree with that. But against the lower half of the PL we should just play Cesc - Matic (and Matic needs to step his game up a bit).

[Hutcho 8,443]

Fabregas to Costa... Just wow.

[The Skipper 20,593]

Fabregas the attacking midfielder >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Fabregas the central midfielder

People think I hate the guy.

He's still playing as a CM, we're playing a 4-3-3.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Please don't let our tempo down, keep pressing

[Magic Lamps 11,452]

We are Chelsea. Bad defending won't stop us.

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

I hope we don't drop off now. We can't afford to.

[Chelsea Buzz 487]

Costa!! Turning up the heat!!

Come on you Chelsea!!

[Styles 9,790]

He's still playing as a CM, we're playing a 4-3-3.

More license to roam and less defensive duties; he is by far the most attacking of the midfield 3.

And my wife wake me up. Its a fucking dream

[The Skipper 20,593]

No. I'm expecting us to be strong defensively, not to give Leicester three or four one-on-one situations against the goalkeeper, not to concede just after we score, not to give Swansea City so many goal scoring opportunities. I'm expecting us not to have blackouts like we had in the first 20 minutes of today's game. I'm expecting us to dominate our 'decent' opponents from the very first minutes of the game. I'm expecting this team to play fast and attractive football, as we were promised during the last season when we 'did what we were able to do with what we had, in order to get the most out of it'. Now we have all we need, but there are still problems. That's what makes me wonder about a few things.

It's the start of the season, of course we're not going to be perfect ffs.

If you haven't seen any promising signs you haven't been watching us at all.

Sitting back as soon as we get the lead. I hate this about Mourinho.
