MichaelDance 552 Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 definately sleeping over thisThankfully it's 11pm for us and not 1am I do think it will be a draw or a sneaky win, Courtois is playing in the second leg according to the newspapers so I hope if we let in a goal, Mourinho swaps us.

cfcs most wanted 657 Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Looking forward to at least getting a result, every time these 2 teams meet it always ends on away goals. Nice to have a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelDance 552 Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Somebody has a lot of faith in Begovic I see.We've only got him for the first half, so if we need to we can just sub Courtois on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrismada9 1,948 Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 I wouldn't mind seeing Falcao play some part in this game just so that we can see what he can do for us! MichaelDance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unionjack 7,531 Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 The idea of pre-season is to blow away the cobwebs. To give everyone a good amount of of minutes. To get everyone back to full fitness. The results are almost irrelevant. Some people take it way to seriously. As long as we have everyone fit and ready by 8th august, that's all that matters.So the result means nothing then? How many do you think we should let them win by?We should be going out every fuckin game like we are going to rip them a new one. We should be using these games to get a wining mindset, a win at all costs. You dont grow confidence by going out treating it like a game down the park. Thats the sort of expression I saw on RLCs face the other night.I know we dont win owt for these games but it does send us into the proper games with either a losers or winners mentality.I really hope that at some point Costa and Falcao get some time. See how they get on with Cescy. MrBlueGuy and MichaelDance 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See how they get on with Cescy.Yes, the result means nothing and I didn't mention anything about letting anybody win.You say it creates a winning or losing mentality. We lost the majority of our pre-season games in 09 and went on to win the double so that is total nonsense. These games are there to brush away the cobwebs and improve match fitness. Obviously we would all rather win the games than lose them but frankly, it doesn't mean jack either way, and people should stop taking it so dam seriously.

LAM09 7,056 Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Most of our big guns are starting, so I'm expecting us to take our chances tonight. Surprised Falcao isn't starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,914 Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Think we're in for another subpar performance to be honest.Don't think our players can really motivate themselves in these meaningless matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post! illmatic 901 Posted July 25, 2015 Popular Post! Share Posted July 25, 2015 As I said some days ago, ALWAYS in the games against big rivals, Mou will put another CM longside Matic, and Fabregas will be the CAM. Is for that who we need a TOP CM for those games.Having said that, with the players that we have already, I prefer Mikel over Ramires, and I agree with the today midfield. stroey, bethos1, Hybrid Angel and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
