Supermonkey92 1,428 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 CourtoisIva Cahill Terry LuisRamires matic Fabregas Willian hazard SchurrleRamires and willian will hold the right flank down. Hazard to play centrally, put less defensive responsibility on him, especially with essentially a 5 man mid behind him. Schurrle there for penetrative runs and extra direct threat, but if not play Oscar on the right and willian left. Both flanks will be shut down! So much pace in the team as well. Definitely won't happen though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bababoom 4,478 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Fucking Spain playing him twice against shit teams, next time we should tell them to fuck off... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlas Lion 1,223 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Last time we were there, Mourinho had Schurrle and Oscar close down Carrick because he was their main component in transition. Hopefully this time around, we won't have to play on the counter and instead bring it to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 We don't want a repeat of our last vist at OT. We have to start with a CF, IMO.Problem is, none of our 3 senior strikers are 100% fit and 2 of them might miss out all together with injury. We might not have a choice but to play Schurrle as a striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We might not have a choice but to play Schurrle as a striker. True, but I think it would better to start Drogba, and possibly change things later on in the match.

Daniel1980 1,425 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 http://www.redcafe.net/matches/manchester-united-vs-chelsea.14/discussionThey're shitting themselves. A few quotes:I think we need to have someone taking Matic out of the game, to have any chance of getting anything out of it. The guy has been one of the best CDMs (since Makelele) for Chelsea, and we need to have one of our lads acting as a decoy for him to chase to open up spaces.I'd rather Mata over Fellaini to be that decoy, since he doesn't tend to help out defensively anyways.You've got the wrong midfielder, we stop Fabregas getting on the ball and we take a good deal of Chelsea's threat away from them.Ideally we need to stop both. Fellaini as a 10 on Fabregas, and Carrick and Blind shield back 4/but also keep Matic at bay. Valencia and Rafael together on Hazard and I think we'll be fine.It feels great to have a genuinely quality midfield. I wouldn't be surprised to see Cesc and Eden--the 2 most obvious sources of creativity--marked, but it would open spaces for Matic and Oscar. They can do some damage too.

iseah100 5,612 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 NOT LIKE CESC NEver played false CF......Logic is not your strongpoint.Yea, and he's as good at CF as he is in midfield, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluesman2610 1,417 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Fav from their form I honestly think this is our best option, ample protection and ability to hit them on pace with the counter. Hopefully Luis is not yet adjusted to the game and we can catch him off guard. What are Chelsea likely to play ?-------------------Courtois--Ivanovic------Terry-----Cahill-----Luis-------------Matic------Fabregas--Schurrle--------Oscar-----------Willian--------------------RemyLike we would play without Hazard haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea Legend 11 4,062 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Even if Costa doesn't play, ffs, it's Didier Drogba. He only needs one shot to get ya that vital goal. Christ sake, the negativism here is killing me sometimes. Thank you. People talk about the king like he's some rubbish player or worse, Torres! Its clear he's past his best but on his day his physicality can still impact a game... Having said that I think Costa will play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran. 6,317 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Schurrle is the only one who would be effective and he may not be fit. We'll see.Maybe Fabregas or is that pushing it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
