Closed Arsenal v Chelsea

[Hybrid Angel 2,130]

Bold lineup from Jose.

I like.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Did you not see Jose's comments re: Solanke?

Nope, didn't hear the PC this week. What did he say?

[didierforever 7,349]

because he's not offending anyone and just expressing his opinion

for people on here jose is like a father. he is our manager. if some cunt offends our manager every time then posters like polo7 should not get a warning for offending back.

this is the same guy who "offended" our manager before the carling cup final and even said that he would delete his account, yet the guy is still here.

I hope it's Oscar playing furthest forward, and not Hazard. We need to station Hazard deeper to create.

Oscar will probably be upfront to press and Eden the furthest forward when we are countering.

[Toli 977]

why not throwing up solanke in the mix? hazard as a false 9 didnt really work against Juve at all. dont think he will be good in this role..better when he is coming from the left

[didierforever 7,349]

A waring for what?? Expressing my dislike for Mourinho who most people support?? This is a discussion forum not a yes man forum

there is a difference between abusing and expressing your forum.

by the way, still here? i thought u would have kept your word and deleted your account after getting shoved by jose time and again.

[Bobbywoodhogan 13]

No striker, hmm not sure about that one

You have to remember mate Jose plays mind games... He doesn't want to give anything away for Arsenal.

[Thendo 1,088]

Definitely not. Both Remy and Costa are out indefinitely, we have no choice to play Drogba as a ST really.

Maybe not you, but alot of people on here seems to take any oppertunity they can to bash José and would definetly be moaning if DD started on top. He should have been starting imo, but lets see what this lineup can do.

[Vybz Kartel 1,613]

If you read our forum rules you'll see that aiming insults at Chelsea players and managers is not allowed.

There is literally no point of such provocative posts. "Shove it in his ass" does not qualify as a footballing opinion.

Its just a figure of speech, I have seen people get away on here posting way more provocative stuff, I feel like with some of you moderators you always want your opinion or no opinion at all of which I disagree as a discussion forum I think we are allowed to be against the populas thats why we are all here to share our views on all matters Chelsea regardless if we agree or not on them. And I was just stating hw I am annoyed at Mourinho's pragmatism regardless of what others think of it

[Pizy 18,917]

So now José says Costa and Remy are huge doubts for Leicester as well. Fuck me. Thought he just said the other day that Costa would for sure be fit by then?

Cannot lose this one. Leicester will be a very tough game.

[Rapkun 668]

If i'm not wrong everytime we played without a striker under jose(schurrle) the score was a draw. I also think they were away games.

[The Skipper 20,609]

Nope, didn't hear the PC this week. What did he say?

Fair enough. He talked about how he called up Solanke from the U21 (hence why he didn't play in the most recent U21 game) because Remy and Costa are out - and he said that he'll choose between Solanke and Costa for the bench (depending on whether Costa is fit or not) but obviously that did not happen, it's just a bit annoying for Dom really. Jose should've just left him with the U21s/youth team to train since they have a final tomorrow.

[Bobbywoodhogan 13]

Drogba did start the week with an ankle injury do maybe he's not a 100% to start but can come off the bench later

[edetarod 2,155]

would be intersting to see what happens here if we concede an early goal

hopefully not though

[The Skipper 20,609]

You have to remember mate Jose plays mind games... He doesn't want to give anything away for Arsenal.

He could've played mind games just as effective without involving Solanke tbh.

And how is saying calling someone a Cunt any worse than the figure of speech "shove it up his a**"? @choulo19

[chrismada9 1,948]

The fact that we have no recognised forward starting worries me...

...Jose knows what he's doing. Believe in him.

[petre.ispirescu 4,928]

Hazardinho false9 me like it

With you on this one. bring it up after the game, ignore the situation now.
