If I see Fabregas on the bench I will scream in joy.

As long as we don't concede early or first...

If we do we'd probably crumble and wilt like we always have this season when facing adversity.

No Fabregas! Hallelujah!

GOD EXISTS.

"Ruben won't just be getting a minute here and there this season, but rather he'll be a true member of the squad and will play."

I haven't been one who's called for him to play like some here, but if Cesc isn't going to why not just throw him into the fire and give him a run? We ain't making top 4 and aren't getting relegated. Nothing to lose, really.

Looks like Oscar has officially played himself back into an auto starter slot.

No Fabregas!

But then, no RLC

Are you sure about the relegation part? we're in for a battle mate.

It was always going to be the same XI that beat Porto. That's just how Jose operates.

This is our most reasonable starting eleven. Without Fabregas (which is perfect), but with Oscar, who performed well in the last game, Hazard in his right place and with a No. 9 as our reference in attack.

I would love to see Ruben Loftus-Cheek replacing Ramires in the following games to go having a starting eleven more and more reasonable. But that's very difficult to do with Jose...

Today is a key game to change our season and break our mental block in Premier League.

GO BLUES!

[manpe 10,861]

My prediction on what Jose will put out.

Courtois

Ivanovic - Zouma - Terry - Azpi

Ramires - Matic

Willian - Oscar - Hazard

Costa

I.e. the same team that produced the best football against Porto. Mou tends to stick with a winning clean sheet team and with Fabregas dropped (hopefully), it might work.

Called it

How the fuck can RLC not even be on the bench?
