yes and then later complain about how Jose couldn't win us this trophy.

[iseah100 5,612]

Idek, tbh.

[didierforever 7,349]

Can't see us winning this. Our midfield is gonna get owned.

Courtois

Iva zouma jt azpi

Rambo mikel/ake cesc

Willian remy hazard.

Only hope.. eden fucking hazard. Need him to have the game of his life!!!

[Ledg 639]

It's not going to be easy, especially w/o Matic but if we win this no matter if this trophy is valuable or not it could be a huge moral boost to the whole team for the remainder of the season, considering we haven't been at our best since the start of the new year (exclude Swansea game). The tricky part is we're having a tough away game 3 days later vs West Ham in the league. This game could be a turning point to our season (no matter win or lose) so I hope the team's gonna be up for the task and get our revenge for the 5-3.

[Laylabelle 9,292]

After the game against Liverpool we bloody better win this!Just seem a complete waste go all through all those games and loose..and if goes to pens ahhhhh.

Think you can count Mikel out as Mourinho said on Friday, he'll be on the treatment table for another 2 weeks or so.

Ake then? Who else? Cesc-Ramires is a disaster waiting to happen.

[CurlyHairLikeLuiz 1,625]

Courtois

Cahill Zouma Terry

Azpi Willian Cesc Ake Hazard

Remy Costa

Or Ramires where Hazard is and Hazard in Remy's place as a false 9.

The only way we will stop our midfield getting owned is if we pack it with the most defensive players possible, hence since Mikel is unavailable we revert to a 3-5-2.

IF Mikel is available:

Courtois

Iva Zouma JT Azpi

Ake Cesc Mikel (in a false 4-2-3-1 style pivot)

Willian Costa Hazard

The endgame might be having to recall a loan midfielder or bring up a development one, an Omeruo-Cesc pivot would still be better than Rami-Cesc.

[iseah100 5,612]

Ake may get his chance.

[CurlyHairLikeLuiz 1,625]

Ake may get his chance.

He'll have to, we have no other holding midfielders left.

And no, Ramires doesn't count.

[xPetrCechx 13,546]

Not the best time for it.

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,733]

Lol There will be one of Cahill/Zouma playing in central midfield before you see Ake start. You can bet on that.

[Special Juan 27,092]

We will either get coshed 3-0 or scrape a 1-0 win with a load of shit negative tactics.

[The Chels 2,502]

The endgame might be having to recall a loan midfielder or bring up a development one, an Omeruo-Cesc pivot would still be better than Rami-Cesc.

Both are suicidal.

[stroey 2,525]

Don't think we'll see Ake in this one, even if Mikel is still injured. He will play this:

Courtois

Iva Zouma JT Luis

Ramires Azpi

Willian Cesc Hazard

Costa
