Whiskey 173 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 guys guys, this is obviousley a 5-4-1. I doubt Cahill is playing in the pivot. Cech; Ivanovic, Zouma, Terry ©, Azpilicueta; Ramires, Cahill, Fabregas; Willian, Diego Costa, Hazard. (This is what mourinho thinks, and then we just counter)CechIva - Zouma - Cahill - JT - AzpiWillian - Ramires - Fabregas - HazardCosta in reality it might look more like: Cech Zouma Cahill JT AzpiIva - Ramires - FabregasWillian - Costa - Hazard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DYC. 7,542 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Find someway to reach Hazard in the attacking third, hope he gets fouled, score a set-piece goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanishBlue 426 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 if that was the case Luis would be in the LB, he isn't. I think people are fooling themselves. One of our CBs is going to be a pivot player, the question is who.We'll see, I just dont believe that Cahill will play in the midfield. Maybe he will be a little bit higher up the pitch than our 2 other CBs but he will play as a defender and not run around like a normal defensive midfielder.

Sir Mikel OBE 4,920 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Cahill in midfield lol, Jose really has no faith in Ake.Cahill use to be a midfielder as a youth player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vybz Kartel 1,613 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Mourinho is clever if you don't trust him then why support the the team, because he did amazing back when he was our manager and I know he can do the same again the only difference is our team.Are you seriously justifying parking the bus after spending over 100 million? This is unacceptable from a top team like us, I hate this negative brand of football Mourinho brings, its even worse when we lose the game like whats likely gonna happen today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutcho 8,443 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I am not a fan of cahill in midfield. Seems a bit too negative to me it's not like we are playing real Madrid. We should respect the opposition obv and it will be far from easy. We all remember the last time we played spurs without matic but I'm concerned at us being true defensive and trying to soak up a lot of pressure. Still I'm intrigued by it and hope it all goes to plan. COME ON THE CHELS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurlyHairLikeLuiz 1,625 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Cahill in midfield lol, Jose really has no faith in Ake.Tbf, it would be a bit much for the lad to throw him into the deep end in a final that Jose himself said was his most important so far.

Barbara 15,149 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 My lineup for the match didn't even need to have Ake. I know Mou wouldn't play him and I don't have a problem with that.If he wants to deploy a defender in the pivot the man for the job was Filipe Luís, not Gary Back-Off-Till-There's-No-Tomorrow Cahill. If he's bad in a high defense, how could he be good in the midfield? He's the kind of the defender that has to play with the GK breath on his neck, he's made for the protected defense, not to protect defense. That's the biggest BS I've seen Mourinho try.

Hutcho 8,443 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 As for the youth team complaints it's not exactly the time to be chucking someone in. Mickey mouse cup or not. It's still a cup and we have come this far and we want to win it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killer1257 3,282 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Cahill in midfield reminds me of Demichelis in midfield. But that's my feeling before the match, it could turn out as the Pepe in midfield move at Madrid, which was good.Pepe is an aggressive monster.Cahill is a cat compared to him.Pepe could play that role against Barcelona because he was needed to make a lot of great,aggressive tackles against Messi and the others.Cahill is not able to do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
