[epicsarah-ous 329]

Kakuta Sturridge (New reserve or promote Walker Or Taylor)

[zinctek 401]

N.A - Pld Shite

Bruma not ready yet by far

Kaluo - Shite

Mikel Shite

Come on its not hard to play other players than them!

Sturridge Malouda pld very well! sturridge to start i say next week

[chrismada9 1,948]

you know this is the sort of form that makes you think signing David Luiz isn't so much of a bad idea :mellow: :unsure:

[eldo 868]

Bring Delac this season. It is not good for him to play for team that fights for relegation.

We really should try him, look at De Gea 19 yo and he did great.

[Slam Dunk 1,442]

Hilario wasn't that bad, he didn't exactly have that much to do did he? No doubt that Cech certainly fills me with more confidence though.

Sturridge was good, he has shown that a left footer cutting inside is very effective (think back to Robben). I still believe he should play centrally in the absence of Drogba though, there is no way Anelka can lead the line again this season, his positioning was all over the place.

It's still only pre season, don't forget.

ANCELOTTI OUT

FFS guys relax....We've only had half a pre-season compared to most teams. The season begins next week. We've 5 games in a row where we should take maximum points to get into the groove.

[chrismada9 1,948]

Slight over reaction ?

I'm scitzo when it comes to games! A bad run of form brings out my "we keep losing, stupidly pissed off" mood! Hence the overreaction!

[YankinBlue42 72]

Wow, the overreaction on this board based off a glorified exhibition is stunning.

No one likes losing to Manure, but the real games don't begin until next weekend.

Performance-wise i thought we played pretty well, a little lapse in defense still but the whole back 4 had come back late so a little rustyness is to be expected. A couple of points i felt, firstly Anelka as a lone striker puts a lot of pressure on the wingers to come inside high up the pitch as Anelka drops very deep, secondly someone needs to show Kalou to go around players rather than through them.....

Sturridge very very impressive when he came on, would like to see him start there for West Brom. I think it will come together for us just at the right time, the internationals are right pain in the backside. I hope people try not to overreact and panic over these pre season results. The way it has worked out i think we can only look at these games as a fitness exercise.

Certainly don't think United deserved to beat us. The biggest annoyance of this game was the commentary, i seriously thought for a while that i had accidentally subscribed to MUTV.

I listened to polish commentary and I felt the same way

i Felt the same with mine as well

So true, personally didn't understand the overrating of Scholes' passing, especially when the ball to Sturridge from Essien got no reaction whatsoever.

Same here with Fox Soccer Channel

[Badboy 1,526]

This game does not matter at all, it nothing more than a regular pre season game. I thought sturridge was really lively and he was an instant upgrade on anelka.

[neel 257]

Sturridge was awesome.

[epicsarah-ous 329]

I did predict man united will be everywhere if they won

[Madmax 9,219]

Conclusion:

1. Chelsea need a better reserve keeper.

2. Chelsea need better finishers, Kalou & Anelka cannot provide it.

3. Chelsea need to improve the defending

WTF is this? Watch your font size mate. Have mercy on our eyes.
