Chelsea4 1,521 Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 What line up would you like to see againts Rz Pellets? I'm excited for the pre season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea Buzz 487 Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Since many key Euro players will not join the squad until the trip to the USA (Hazard, Cesc, Bats, Kante, Pedro, Cahiil, Courtois), I am not sure it matters a great deal. Put Costa and Traore up top, with Moses, Kenedy, RLC, Aina and Willian behind them in a 3-5-2 formation. Go with Baba, Ivanovic, Azpilicueta in the back to see how ugly it can be with Ivanovic at CB.

akgw13 867 Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 begovic azpi - terry - Ivanovic - Aina Willian(moses) RLC Matic(chalobah) Kenedy Costa Bats(if too soon, Traore) As much as i dislike Ivanovic as an RB i am somewhat ok with him as CB(prefer him to cahill) would love to finally see RLC in the role I want him in as B2B but its beginning to feel like it will never happen. I think Aina has earned a starting xi role with his showing last game. would love chalobah to get more run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueStorm1003 539 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 As long as our RB is not Ivanovic I'm perfectly fine with whatever line up Conte comes up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm awaiting the collective meltdown when Ivanovic plays another 90 minutes at RB and Azpi only gets some (if any) time at LB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,141 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Ivanovic is regarded as some sort of war lord at this club and it's only some fans that can see he is absolute fucking dog shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea Buzz 487 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 So Cuadrado is back with the club i am sure he is not fit to play tomorrow, but after Conte's comments over the weekend, I am surprised he is getting another shot. Am I crazy, but in his time two seasons ago, he seemed so over matched and in over his head,no? He was always falling down, missing passes, etc. i just don't know who he'd replace in the lineup. I'd take Hazard, Willian, Pedro, Kenedy, Oscar, Traore over him. What am I missing? Is it just because he played in Serie A? Hope we put a decent lineup out tomorrow and get a nice win.

Blue_Fox_ 2,086 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Most of all I hope to see some sort of progress, even slight, in the team's behaviour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is going to take some time (hopefully not too long) for our guys to learn the quick, fast pace, attacking style Conte wants. The first game was interesting as you could see Conte telling the guys to push the play, but instead we would bring the ball near the area and then start walking the ball all around allowing the other team to set their defense and make penetration only possible via perfect passing. Looked like last year, especially early when we would look for 1-0 wins until our defense started leaking like a leaky boat. Willian does this a lot as does Hazard (did not play Saturday). Love Willian, but he and others are just too methodical most of the time, much like Arsenal. This comes from the Jose training. We have got to break this. Even Costa appears to have changed from the free running player the first half of 2014-15. Jose is still in the heads of these guys in my opinion. I look forward to a change in style. Look back at how we played in 2012-13. Gotta get the mojo back and then some. Come on you Chelsea!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
