NattyBlue 44 Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 If we're going to win this game, Anelka or Drogba HAS TO BE on the bench, no questions asked really.2 wingers for now is the way forward for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

middleoftheshed 388 Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 I will be there, that's if I get to the coach which departs SB at 6am, ouch lol. I'm glad i'm on the caoch as it looks more and more likely that there is going to be a train strike that day.I think the strike is planned from the 6th so trains will be ok at the weekend. I hope so anyway I'm on the 06.51 from Euston god help me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh Monday-Friday its meant to be.In theory anywayIf this game was at the Bridge on the other hand then it'll be chaos with no doubt half the Underground shut as they always seem to do on match days espically if its London Derby they like to shut the easiest route there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Big Drog 1,110 Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 My line up would be similar to that of Tech9c's , play a 4-2-3-1 , much like what we played today with Deco playing a deep lying creative midfielder and Mikel alongside him giving Lampard the freedom to roam forward. However the only change I would make to Tech's team is Joe Cole to start in place of Anelka who I dont think ever performances well on the wing.

Shane 2,275 Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Twice already we've beaten them, Just after knocking 7 by a strong Villa defence, There's hasn't been great all season. I think we can blow them out of the water. COME ON Chelsea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DYC. 7,542 Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 To be very honest, i woud like to see Chelsea play with the exact same line-up against Man Utd. Why ?With Drogba up front the team tends to play at a lower tempo and play the long ball way too much. They just rely on him too much especially in big games. That causes us to create too little chances.While with Anelka up front we play at higher tempo and more technical football with good link up play. As Anelka tends to roam more, you see a lot more position switching. Thats very confusing for the defences of the opposition and pulls defenders away from their position on the field.But the reason could also be that we never (this season) played with two real wingers with Drogba up front. Except in midweek when Joey came on in the second half. And we also ended up winning big, but the overall play wasnt as impressive as against Villa.That also just proves that what i have been saying for weeks is true (I wasnt the only one), we really need Joey. Our only real right winger and he was fantastic against Villa.So start Didier or Anelka in the striker role but dont play Anelka at right wing. Just praying Ancelotti sees it too.

DavidEU 2,023 Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Carlo said Friday there was a chance that Ivan will be fit for this. Fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James 5,321 Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 If Anelka gets put out wide we might aswell start with 10 men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NattyBlue 44 Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 That would be nice, it could just spur them on but they can't cross it in as much because Berba has a 50p head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidEU 2,023 Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 The difference between us and other teams in regard to Rooney is that Alex and JT won't leave him unmarked in the box.Talking about Drogba and Anelka, if its one on t'other, it HAS to be Drogba. Yes, we probably are more fluid when Anelka plays, but this is Old Trafford. We are probably not going to get the chance to play some of the lovely stuff that we played on the ground yesterday. Its going to be physical with Fletcher and Carrick in the midfield, which is why Ballack will probably get the nod over Deco. We wont carve them open like we did Villa, and chances will probably be few and far between. And, to be honest, i'd much rather those chances fall to Didier than Nico.

Laylabelle 9,535 Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Yeh no way expecting a 7-1 win..but hope if do sadly loose its not by a stupid scoreline like we have in the past..3-0..2-0 crap like thatSick of hearing from the press how great Man U are.Yeh they won 4-0 but against Bolton! We won 7-1 against a team competing for 4th.So hopfully we'll win and shut them up..and I want a nice Easter at my nans rather then us all sitting there in a 'ahhh wtf' sort of way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
