It's too big 625 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Probably be the first game this season we'll have every one of our rivals keeping an eye on us, all of whom have played their games already. Will be added pressure to perform, but let us hope we can do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoyBlue96 990 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Definitely a must win and now even more as we can climb to the top of the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unionjack 7,531 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Will be nice to smash the Spuds sitting top of the table. Theyre going to be well pissed off after fucking them up end of last season. I dunno if maybe Diego should get his ban today so hes ok for Shitty, Or t'other way roind, Or by some miracle Spids dont try to fet him sent off. But after watching them both today I must say I wasn't a bit worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Crap, Antonio won the manager of the month award. Now we're going to have to beat both Boro and the bloody award curse! On a serious note, complacency might be an issue here. I REALLY don't like it when everyone puts us as firm favorites for a match... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoyBlue96 990 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Don't like to underestimate a PL opponent. Even Boro. But this has to be an easy win. But you never know with these promoted teams against top teams when something is at stake... I still remember how Ajax lost the title here in Holland to the fucking De Graafschap... Come on lads the top position is right for the taking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unionjack 7,531 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I dont think the Don is the type to allow players to become complacent. Im pretty sure he would be jumping on someomes back in training if they started to act like they know it all. For all of last season each of the lads were walking round with their hands on their hips, moping about like they couldn't give a fucl. Not now. Yhey are full of self belief and up for a fight no matter who we play.. Seeing Eden go out with his swag on shows you the kinda mood they are in and to me thats half the battle wom.

Badboy 1,526 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I would start Willian today we could do with his pace and unselfish play in the final third. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,918 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 If we can pick up where we left off form wise after the international break then I can't see Middlesbrough scoring from open play. It would be from poor marking on a corner or a penalty. They play Negredo as a lone target man, yes? Luiz and Cahill should be able to negate him pretty easily if so. I hope the message that Conte has hammered home to the team this week in training is tempo, tempo, tempo. If we just blitz them and move the ball around quickly they shouldn't be able to live with us. No zombieball like Arsenal played yesterday, no players standing around like statues, and the thing that annoys me most which is our players not being able to string 3 passes together before giving it away. You know Middlesbrough will raise their game far beyond how they normally play because big, bad Chelsea is in town and it's a spotlight match. Don't allow them to build confidence by retaining the bulk of possession and stealing an early goal. We need to pressure them from the start and demoralize them like we've done the past 5 matches.

They raised their game at Shity, losing 1-0 only to score in injury time so they keep focus and fight till trhe end. Lets see how they handle our defence and power up front. Drew 0-0 at the North London club But Spuds,Warford and Everrton beat them so yeah they will WANT to beat us, every team we pla\y WANT to beat us. But fuck em. If we go in like we have been doing I'd back us against anyone. Willian not playing is sad I know. He goes away to bury his mum and comes back to find its all changed and hes out in the cold. But Id really like him to play against Spuds. He always has a good game against them and i really do think he does hate them!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DYC. 7,542 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 A minimum of ten points should be the aim for the next five games. Imagine a 10-game winning streak though. Imagine the fear and respect. Imagine the adulation. Imagine them kissing our feet! Anyway, Chels should win this comfortably. The worst thing would be to make this game bigger than it is. A commited and focused performance should bring home the three points. If Hazard and Costa aren't in their best shape for this game this will most likely be an unspectacular 0-1, 0-2 win.
