Starman60 1,343 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I don't want Mikel starting against the Saints as I think this match will be played at too high a pace for him. I think Schurrle will get the nod ahead of Willian as he looked a little tired against West Ham, and Mourinho will want him at his best for the Spurs match,(If only to show them what they lost out on) Perhaps Ramires in for Oscar??? Though I think I would have a better chance of winning the lottery than trying to second guess Mourinho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stats 7,142 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I hope Luis starts this game. There are some players who we need playing out there but when you only have 1 days rest it really should be a bonus that you have arguably the best LB in Europe waiting to play. It will be quite an insult to Luis if he does not play this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Weird, I think this is the game we should play Mikel more than any other kind of matches. I have been told soton will not park the bus, we need Matic - Mikel combination to cover our defend.And against Spurs we then could back to same old team, with one two change, but still 4231. As much as I hate this two teams, I have to admit Soton is more dangerous than Spurs. 433 for this match for me, with Fabregas could sometimes going forward as the no. 10Also the sign Soton will have the game of their lives against us is already there.Upbeat James Ward-Prowse targets Chelsea scalp as Southampton seek to sustain top-four tilt‘It is very important we get a result, Chelsea are a fantastic side and have a lot of world-class players,’ said Ward-Prowse. ‘If we are to get to where we want to get to — in Europe and stuff like that — we’re going to have to beat teams like this. That’s a sort of challenge and we’re ready for it. The game will be a measure of how far we’ve come. ‘We’re not looking at it as a game that we’re the underdog and sit back and hope to win — we’re going to go out level with them and we’re excited for the challenge.’ http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2888658/Upbeat-James-Ward-Prowse-targets-Chelsea-scalp-Southampton-seek-sustain-four-tilt.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strike 7,489 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I would play Schurrle in place of Willian here but then Jose took Willian off on Boxing day. That seemed weird to me when Fabregas or Hazard could have done with some rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parky 739 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 It will be a tough game but as long as we have the stronger determination and energy our quality should give us the narrow win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lionsden 4,689 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I just observed a worrysome pattern. Bar the first 4 game of the season, we have not exceeded 3 wins in a row. If this pattern continues then we will definitely drop poonts today as we are currently on a 3 game winning strea. Hope we break that pattern today.

FabHazard 655 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 we have to cope well under their pressing...their pressing is very good...they will play ball from the back..that means we have to press very well and apply pressure from the start..

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I meant league games only.That's not very indicative of the team since 4 PL matches are 7 or 8 matches in all competitions. Win 4 PL matches and lose the 3 matches in other competitions in between and the team is in a bad run, win 7 and draw one PL match and the team is on an amazing run.
