Shane 2,275 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 Less than 3 days away now. Hopefully Di Santo and Stoch get a start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EskWeston 696 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 Hooray! Pre Season games start. I do love the pre season games. Will be interesting to see who has gone on the tour. We have a big squad of players at the moment considering we are yet to let anyone go. Players like Pizarro and Shevchenko still around. Ancelotti said a couple of youngsters may go on the tour. Considering Stoch looks to have gone on loan i would guess Sinclair, Cork and Bertrand would go as they are the ones who should be looking to get the chance now. Aparently the african lads will not take part in the first game either. All in all i am very much looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mungii 3 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 We will really see what is on CA mind!...I hoped that Pizzaro would go but he is still here....i Really don't know what to say.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No-one has left yet. It isn't very likely that we will keep everyone, players will leave! Zhirkov won't be playing the first game either by the looks of it, he is joining up with the tour at a later date, presumably to get himself sorted moving over from Russia. Take away the africans and Mancienne who will not play the first game and this is what we have to pick from for the Seattle game. Petr Cech Hilario Ross Turnbull Branislav Ivanovic Ashley Cole Ricardo Carvalho Andriy Shevchenko Frank Lampard Franco Di Santo Michael Ballack Claudio Pizarro Florent Malouda Scott Sinclair Jose Bosingwa Deco Daniel Sturridge John Terry Alex Juliano Belletti Nicolas Anelka Sam Hutchinson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wxgba 306 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 I think Turnbull will start in the net, personally. I think Sturridge will start too. It'll be interesting to see whether JT starts or not though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane 2,275 Posted July 16, 2009 Author Share Posted July 16, 2009 I'd like to see a Drogba/Di Santo strikeforce, see how it works. Also Cork to start, He was excellent for Watford last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cork hasn't gone on the tour! Formation will be something to look out for thats for sure. Although at this stage it isn't much of an indication of how we will line up this season. At this point it is all about fitness and game practice. Everyone will get on the pitch at some point and there won't be many (if any) playing a full 90...

Aesthetic Relic 301 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 At least the games will be played at a decent time instead of stupid o'clock I think it was last season when we were playing in the early hours.

Ollie 4,400 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 Is that Chelsea Online TV still showing games? Ive not got a clue anymore. Anyway hope we play well, i love pre season games, get a real buzz to see how we do. Can set a marker down to anyone watching and smash a team of yanks along the way. Great stuff. Is it definitely 8pm and not 7pm? think the Chelsea site says 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
