Closed Chelsea v Tottenham

[Reddish-Blue 2,225]

Must win game, you simply can't lose to the f*cking Spurs!

[iceboy 992]

Remy uptop for me. Not sure what Mourinho will plan for this, I would be tempted to start Schurrle ahead of Hazard.

I think beating Spurs and Hull in Stamford Bridge will mean no problem. The games against Sporting and Derby are unimportant, unused players and youngtsters are likely to feature. The Castle game will be tough though.

He decided to go to USA because he was not offered a contract here and he didnt want to go to a mediocre team in PL so he chose MLS. I'm sure City will keep him for the rest of season, he has been great for them.

I still believe Mourinho that we did offer him a new contract but declined:

My worry is that players will be tired but Mou will still pick strongest 11. And then they will be even more tired against Newcastle.

I am bit dissapointed with (no) Mou rotation vs Sunderland.

[LAM09 6,552]

We need to make a few chances to our starting eleven, as some of them looked off the pace on Saturday.

derby is not unimportant. we should be looking to win the league cup and take the pressure off jose and the players about being trophyless. also, we are clear favourites for league cup.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Lol, I saw Lampard name in every thread.

[mikeholiday 209]

Any chance Mou doesn't rotate ex-Costa?

[Sepehr SS 36]

Not resting some players for this game is a recipe for disaster against newcastle. I still can't believe Luis is not getting any playing time, he was the best left back in the world last year. And there is no way in hell that Drogba starts over Remy in this game, Mourinho must be a moron to start Drogba.

[Jase 43,479]

Mourinho's presser at 12.30pm UK time later..

[Mustafa 885]

Honestly, I'm not too bothered with who starts up front. The only thing I'm concerned with for Wednesday is getting the 3 points and no injuries. As long as we beat Spurs, I'll be a happy guy....

Oh yeah, and I'd love to see Soldado do a Torres-esque open goal miss just for pure banter

Oh... so jose will be a "moron" to start DD who scored at OT aginst united when the whole team was looking flat as hell.

Brilliant opinion. Kepp it up!!!

[We Hate Scouse 10,261]

By pure luck I've managed to score a free ticket, it'll be my first game at Stamford Brdige in about 3 years. What a game to go to

[superfrank8 23]

Expect the fans to sing the Willian song in full voice. If Willian plays and scores, that would be great.

I don't know what the ex- part means.

But if you're asking for chances that he doesn't rest Costa i'd say it's around 0% .

He picked up his 5th yellow card of the season during the match against Sunderland and so has a 1 game ban to serve (this game).

EDIT: I get it now, you mean apart from Costa

In that case, I think there's a chance Mou keeps the same team apart from Costa (he's stated before that he likes stability in selection) but surely even he must see how people like Fab, Hazard and Oscar looked knackered in the closing stages of the Sunderland game and we need some rotation to keep the team fresh.

But then again, whatever Mou does I will get behind. Because always trust in Mou .
