lluubbeenn 173 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 The bad thing is that after the poor game last night, this match becomes massive for our season.We need 3 points. I belive the lads can overcome the disappointment and deal with Southampton the Chelsea way! And please guys be more positive, our team needs our support. We must win the bpl and we will!

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Time to 'rest' Costa? Cuadrado, Cech, Zouma and Willian all to start please.If Ramires starts then Oscar has to as well. Cesc CANNOT play in the number 10 position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurlyHairLikeLuiz 1,625 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 No Ramires. Cesc needs to improve or otherwise we might as well play some youth there. If Matic is injured, Zouma, Ake, Cesc/RLC in 4-3-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 I would like all players who fucked up yesterday to be benched. I know I am dreaming but I'd love to see a team freshened up with some youth players.--------Courtois--------Azpi--Zouma-JT--Luis------Matic--Ake-------Cuadrado-RLC--Hazard-------------Remy----------That team looks competent and has flair. IMO Remy will be an upgrade on Costa on current form. Also given that Fabregas never really performs in the 2nd part of the season, we should have a plan B. Obviously that plan B is not Ramires. RLC and Ake are both quick and strong enough to cope with the physical challenge of the EPL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RLC and Ake are both quick and strong enough to cope with the physical challenge of the EPL.You are being a bit too drastic I think. RLC hardly ever plays as a no.10 when playing for our U19/U21. Why do we feel we can chuck him in as a no.10 now? He played no.10 in our U21 game against Leicester last week and struggled to make an impact on the game. Ake has hardly played football all season so that is a no. This is a game where we have to take seriously. Southampton almost have a fully fit team. No time for just chucking the likes of Ake and RLC for this game ahead of players like Willian. Hopefully Fabregas who will play I assume is just played in his best position.

cosmicway 1,333 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 I never expected us to win CL really.Back in 2012 same time of the year I said to my friends "it's only Barcelona and a giant killing act cannot be ruled out".In 2014 well, we came close to be one of the two finalists.This time it's Bayern-Real and Barcelona again and with modest expectations we 'd have to get two of them.We / PSG need to up our game considerably to have the measure of those three - realism suggests.So let's win the PL and then regroup for next year's CL.Let's also shut the faces of the anti-Chelsea press !

DYC. 7,542 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 CechAzpi Zouma Terry LuisMaticFabregas WillianCuadrado Remy Hazard I want to see Willian in a deeper role. A player with his lack of threat and adventure has no place in an advanced position. Let him use his pace and energy to mostly cover for the front three and Fabregas. Also helping out Luis whenever necessary. He should be able to keep the ball and drive forward, with the extra space and time a deeper role allows. Fabregas starting in centre midfield, with the license to move up when the any of the front three is in possession.Luis deserves to play. Tired of the lack of ability on the ball from any of the defenders and a right-footed player on the left. And I don't care how many goals Ivanovic scores from set-pieces, he's the least capable fullback at Chelsea on the ball. Neither does he possess any kind of great attacking nous. But somehow he's allowed the most offensive role. Personally I'm convinced Azpilicueta would do better in the same role. He won't score as much, but he'll provide a better overall contribution on his natural flank imo. Ivanovic has also lost a yard of pace and it's really hurting him.There's a serious lack of spark and imagination up front, something that has been the case for months now. I didn't see the point of his signing but Cuadrado was purchased for a lot of money, so use him. Give him the opportunity to show his quality, make mistakes and develop an understanding with his team mates. I say start him for at least 6 games in a row. It's not like his competition is doing a great job anyway.Costa is in poor form. Remy is a good striker. He has scored a good amount of goals in his limited time on the pitch. He should be fired up to prove himself, give him a shot.This is not happening but a boy is allowed to dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jernej93 569 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 We don't have really amazing attacking talent, we have Costa, Hazard and Fabregas who are amazing in the attack, the rest are just average/decent players.Have you watched any Colombia game at World cup? Cuadrado is amazing attacking prospect But you have to look at his position .. he was playing alongside back 4 as a right back and Ivanović moved to CB when we were defending. So his attacking prospect in counter attacks is "killed" with this approach. I think he has much to offer but we have to attack and press against this smaller teams .. otherwise there is only Hazard who will look good in attack just because he has roaming freedom and don't have to defend deep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amblève. 4,995 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Don't expect miracles here. This team hasn't shown anything so far that would suggest that they have a strong mentality as a group. We'll probably get a lucky bounce but no way this team redeems itself. Mourinho will panic now and play his best possible team with the most pragmatic approach so say goodbye to your hopes for seeing guys like Remy and Luis and our youth players. The latter won't even sniff a second this season anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
