Chelsea 2-0 Blackburn

[Fulham Broadway 16,867]

He was on TalkShite last night and sounded fairly modest, not what I expected to be honest.

Said he'd met Abramovich just the once, though had never seen him at Cobham. Also said he was upset when Wilkins was given the boot.

......................Cech................................

Bosingwa....Bruma........Terry........Ashley

Essien....Ramires... Lampard

.........Anelka.......Sturridge....Kalou....................

Hopefully Carlo thinks the same!

[LDN Blue 7,903]

.........Anelka.......Sturridge....Kalou....................

If he chooses that 3, it'll be

Sturridge - Anelka - Kalou

But I'd rather see

Cech

Bosingwa - Ivanovic - Terry - Cole

McEachran

Lampard - Kakuta

Sturridge - Drogba - Malouda

really ?

[Jose M 140]

Ok the only reason I picked Kalou is cause Malouda and Drogs need like 2 games or 3 games off. And plus Kalou scored last game. Trust me im not the biggest fan of Kalou but he's in better form than Malouda and a team should be picked on form not your name!

Im trying to be realistic when I picked the team. Your 4-1-2-3 is NEVER going to happen under Carlo!

That's basically what we play anyway..

Its a real shame Patch got injured against Ipswich, Cole could do with the rest.

I say we play all of the big hitters, ie. Essien, Ivanovic and Terry and just get them to snap Diouf. Alternatively just get Alex to play for five minutes and give him a double fracture in both of his legs.

Don't forget, throw abuse at him while he's lying down in pain

[Laylabelle 9,360]

I'd say as well more or less stick to the team played Sunday.Make the odd changes if needed but with the likes of Sturridge just play them.Nout to loose and if we do loose least its with a different team and all rather with the same bunch who dont seem to care

Honestly, did you really expect him to start a PL game?

if those 2 young lads started i will run naked in my neighborhood , but the rest of the team is all good , essien and ramires will start.

Make sure there's no sandstorm that day

[Shane 2,275]

Surely Sturridge must start? Wouldn't mind seeing McEachran either, Is it a suprise our midfield played so well with him on Sunday.

[LDN Blue 7,903]

Expect a low-turn out. By the way CFC are advertising this game, I don't think many tickets have been sold.

sturridge must start!!!!!

[The Big Drog 1,110]

Realy hoping that Daniel Sturridge gets a start, after his performances last week against Spurs reserves and Ipswich he more than warrants a starting spot, I just dont understand what Kalou has over him.

Drogba (if fit|) will certainly be returned to the starting line up, hopefully Essien will be back too, though if he is missing then there would be worse things than starting McEachran.
