Thendo 1,088 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Jose.So, an 18-year-old with no first team experience is ready to play but not a 21-year-old who has top flight football experience?! Mourinho's insistence of playing inverted fullbacks (or even 3 CBs in the back 4) is rather 'unhealthy' to say the very least.But he never said Aina was ahead of Baba though. He said he had 4 options at RB now that Iva is injured: Azpi (which means Baba as lb), Zouma, Ramires and Ola Aina. Altough, I wouldn't be suprised if we see Zouma as RB tomorrow, but there's no way Aina will be starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zolayes 14,489 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 would be better if he said we were going to replace Brana when he is fit ..well as fit as he ever is ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But hey, we'll see tomorow I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea Buzz 487 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Hello fellow Chelsea mates! Good to be back with a PL match again. As most have already commented, it will be an interesting XI by Jose tomorrow, or at least he hinted that it might be.We have all been saying it is time to turn it around. The break has probably been good for everyone so let's see some good football at the Bridge.I prefer not to see Zouma at RB. I prefer to see RLC in midfield and Kenedy in the game as well. We shall see.Come on you Chelsea!! :blue scalf: :blue scalf: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid Angel 2,130 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 An Aston Villa fan would bet on them not scoring against us, while we would bet on them scoring.This is a weird feeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iggy Doonican 4,186 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 This on paper at least is the perfect game to start Baba. If it's Zouma at right back and Dave at left then it's pretty obvious Baba is not rated and has no future under Mourinho. It's just a weird buy and could mean that we have bought two left backs for over 30 million pound in the last two seasons not play them and sell Bertrand for 10 million. It's beyond baffling. And Zouma at right back for fucks sake totally wasted like Dave is at left back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara 15,149 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 I don't know who I'd like to start in this game.I think maybe it's better if we play with three defenders (would play with 3 with Baba anyway)I don't oppose to Zouma in LB, I trust Baba a whole amount of 0 defensively, but then again this is Villa at home, maybe, big maybe, he could not detract that much.I'd play RLC and Ramires in the middle, with Pedro, Willian, Hazard and Costa ahead.

Barbara 15,149 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Why you hate Baba so much?Don't hate him, just see him as completely incapable of defending in EPL. If he couldn't be solid against a 4th division team or whatever in COC, how do you expect him to do in EPL? He was shaky at moments there, and I wasn't impressed against Maccabi either. I honestly see him being worse than Iva defensively and that says a lot.I'm still angry that we had Luís and let him go because lack of playing time. Very stupid from Mourinho imo.

lucio 5,418 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 judging someone defensively after 2 nothing games, is not right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara 15,149 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 judging someone defensively after 2 nothing games, is not right. it might not be, but he doesn't make me feel good about the defense. We already enough defensively problems. I have no reasons to believe he'll turn around weak presentations against weak teams in top flight. He has a long way to go imo. not saying he won't ever be ready, but right now I think he'd compromise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
didi007 69 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 How can you say a player who was highly rated in the Bundesliga is incapable of defending in the EPL? We all know that his first game performance was just nerves. If he never plays how would ever adapt to the EPL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
