Viper22 2,418 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 RLC, Baba, Kenedy and Traore all have to play at least some part in this game and 3 should at least start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike 12,049 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I haven't watched a Chelsea match in quite some time and I think I won't be too fussed over this one. I probably won't even know where or what time it is on the 11th due to jet lag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fulham Broadway 17,319 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Fully expecting a strong side out to keep up the momentum and chalk up another win, so forget the whining 'play the kids'. Its also needed for a confidence booster. If they keep up the current form we should get close to Wembley, and Guss wants to win it (again).

BioHazard 10 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Full demolition job expected here after last week, 4, 5, maybe even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Last Sicarius 610 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Hazard wont play for 2 weeks, so i will be happy if Traore/Kennedy will play on his position Not Pedro. Tibo Azpi-Zouma-Cahill(Terry have his age :/)- Baba RLC( <3 but not happened... )-Oscar-Mikel Willian-Remy(Costa whatever)-Kennedy We need some rotation and new faces in a team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran. 6,317 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Begovic Azpi Zouma Cahill Baba RLC Matic Fabregas Kenedy Remy Pedro Think Willian and Terry could do with some rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Deschain 24 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I definitely want to see RLC and Kennedy some more. I'd go with: Courtois Azpi Zouma Terry Baba RLC Mikel Oscar Willian Kennedy Costa/Remy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should get rid off them both and keep bamford and also buy another striker. If diego costa goes down we might has well brace ourselves for a relegation battle. They are both January in the Calendar lol..makes you wonder...Falco espically Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azinopik 10 Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 I think Guus wont risk our momentum by rotating squad too early. Guus is likely to retain the same squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that its our b team just goes to show how incredibly weak our squad is, lower league sides playing PL in the cup can be tough at the best of times (numerous examples of league one sides giving top PL teams close games Bradford vsChelsea, Burton I think it was Vs United last season, Leyton Orient vs Arsenal) put that team out I really really would not be even in the slightest surprised if we are not in the hat for the next round. What is the point of playing Papy? He is not good enough for us, never will be and will be leaving soon, id rather wejust played Cahill and Zouma or even shoved Ivan or Mikel at CB instead. I do hope atleast 2 of RLC, Kenedy and Traore get some game time this weekend and the other gets off the bench, but the likes of Papy and Bamford shouldn't be anywhere near the pitch on Sunday.

Fulham Broadway 17,319 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Thing is if the yoof were played against Scunthorpe and we lost we are talking about a business losing a lot of money /revenue. No employee of that business (Guus) would want to take the rap for that and have to justify it to Emanalo/Buck/Abramovich. Even teams like Villa down in teh depths dont experiment wiv da yoof, financial demands dictate you play the most expensive assets at all times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No brainer really. What people should do if they want kids to play is e mail the club.

Jase 43,479 Posted January 7, 2016 Author Share Posted January 7, 2016 Pretty sure Hiddink would make some changes. Would be surprised if he didn't. We have West Brom to come next Wednesday and then Everton on Saturday. No way he will play the same team for 3 matches in 7 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jernej93 569 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Hiddink would be even more loved by the fans if he starts RLC, Traore, Kenedy and Bamford in this one. He could put players like Willian/Oscar/Pedro, Matic/Mikel, Terry, Cahill, Azpi, Ivanovic around them It would be smart move to rest some players after some busy run of fixtures and with next gameweek in 3 days I am at least expecting two of them to start (RLC, Traore, Kenedy, Baba, Bamford) otherwise I will be disappointed even though we crash them with first 11 Courtois Azpi/Ivke - Zouma - Terry/Cahill - Baba RLC - Mikel/Matic Traore - Oscar/Willian/Pedro - Kenedy Bamford I would absolutely love that first 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
