!Hazard! 3,394 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Defensively good obviously, but I feel that our attacking play is going to be quite frustrating. Let's hope I am wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thendo 1,088 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Is Ake injured? Not on the bench but RLC is. Strong line-up I guess we have to get used to seeing Zouma in midfield whenever Matic (+Mikel) is unavailable. Would have hoped to see Filipe getting a start though.

boshman 1,073 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I hope this Zouma in midfield idea is only as cover and he doesn't make a habit of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,909 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Man. We'll be totally reliant on Hazard for width. Also means Iva will probably be bombing forward more and abandoning his post. I would've started Luis for Azpi.Let us pray that Oscar shows up today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrExcalibur100 7,124 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 What an absolutely shit line-up. You try to stay optimistic, but I can see us dropping some points today. Zouma in that position again? Ramires on the right? WTH is Jose smoking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAM09 7,054 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Not confident with that line up. Is Ramy playing as a winger?Shit needs to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanishBlue 426 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Idd, Zouma in midfield is something I'm not too sure about but Jose is out of options so I can live with the choice. Will Oscar play on the wing or will he play as a number 10? I guess he could be a number 10 if Ramires plays on the right at some point during the game.

WNDS 502 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I REALLY REALLY hope that West Ham are not going to 'park the bus', because our team looks like it will struggle enormously against such a tactic; we have no width whatsoever with which to attempt to stretch the play (one of Ramires or Oscar playing wide/no Luis). Hopefully I'm wrong; I'm off to a good start on that front with my line-up prediction . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanishBlue 426 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Well, if we need some attacking threats we can always put on Willian/Cuadrado and take off Zouma or Oscar (depends on the formation we want to play)I think it's okay to start the game this way to see how West Ham is going to play. It's easy to fix with a couple of substitutions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 What an absolutely shit line-up. You try to stay optimistic, but I can see us dropping some points today. Zouma in that position again? Ramires on the right? WTH is Jose smoking?Id rather have Cech in midfield than play the Rami, Cesc pivot.It's hard not too think that when that combo have shipped 4 in half an hours playing time.

xdottenx 20 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I feel some people need to get their brains checked before they puke out their comments here.We have a great team, a great manager, and we are on top of the league and yet people force shitty judgemental comments in my face reading the thread about how shitty the lineup is.Why dont you just watch the game later and see how shitty it is then... Mourinho knows what hes doing, its almost so I feel like going to a different forum, because for some reason people use this as a place to complain about everything all the time, instead of discussing and supporting Chelsea...

ZOS 580 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 would've loved to see Felipe today... and williian/couadrado instead of Ramirez ... we'll be lacking width. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurlyHairLikeLuiz 1,625 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Sounds like it's Oscar on the wing to me: CourtoisIva Cahill Terry Azpi Zouma Rami Cesc Oscar Hazard Costa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,909 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 The bad feeling I had about this match hasn't subsided after seeing the lineup. I think we'll be able to contain them well enough but I'm worried about our attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 West Ham will do what Allardyce teams at home to the big boys always do, get in our faces and try to unsettle oreven bully us.Look at how his Bolton side always downed Arsenal or even WHU beating us under Rafa.

bethos1 802 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I'm sure Ramy will be playing on the wing. Oscar doesn't perform well as a winger.Neither does Ramires though, I'm not a fan of this line-up but I guess I'll have to wait and see how it goes.

kellzfresh 7,229 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I just hope ramires isn't playing on the wing. I'll be very happy if it's a diamond with zouma Ramires fabregas Oscar Costa hazard With ivanovic bombing forward on the right Any other way would make this a defensive line-up which would be a big concern in attack.
