Chelsea pre-match thread

[mosssideblue]

I also mentioned quality and experience as to why Delph should not start ahead of Yaya and Fernandinho so I don't see any double standards. That is my view of the team selection, does not mean we are going to play poorly or lose.

Well we agree on that

Season defining game for Vinny, pray it's 90 mins win or lose.

Has anyone posted the Chelsea lineup?

 

[kaz7]

Costa won't be pleased to see vinny

 

[ballinio]

They say there's a fine line between genius & madness, hopefully we'll see the genius one day.

 

[aguero93:20]

Anyone else nervous for Vinny?

Shitting it. Delighted to see him in the team though tbh.

Has anyone posted the Chelsea lineup?

A few pages back,their usual team

 

[come-on-barney]

why so much hate towards City?

Cause it's true - just a thought

 

[abu13]

Costa won't be pleased to see vinny

Yep, I agree.
This should be a really good match up, good solid reason for Vinny's inclusion tonight. I can't see Costa being able to bully VK.

Zouma is in the Chelsea team to help negate Bacon's pace, IMHO.

Chavs playing there usual solid team and formation and we change formation and players virtually every game , could be the reason they are walking their way to the league title , no doubt Pep has been working with these lads in training and has a plan. It could get messi or could be a masterstroke , either way its never dull or predictable watching a Guardiola side , come on you blue boys.

That's a bit radical, maybe we should try that, you know , playing the same team occasionally.

 

[SWP's back]

Make your minds up.

No. You're getting confused between people working out the formation/discussing tactics and people wetting the bed saying Pep has fucked up or just typing "fucking hell".

You know what 2 years ago Chelsea had a consistent starting 11, last year so did Leicester and so far this season so have Chelsea.

They all seem to have something in common,

 

[richards30]

Hahaha delph and navas in??? WTF? Pep really is trying to send a message to txiki me thinks! Clichy at left back again as well......blaahhh

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

What are the odds on Vinny bagging one from a corner?

 

[kaz7]

That's a bit radical, maybe we should try that, you know , playing the same team occasionally.

I agree,we should now we only have the league and cup to play,but it won't happen

 

[urban genie]

Chelsea come to ours play in all blue, we go to theirs and wear the shite double decker kit, don't half give me an headache after looking at it 90 mins.

They will play a lot through counter attack if we ain't sloppy in passing like on sunday and keep the ball we can beat these

 

[come-on-barney]

It's either

a) Genius
b) left field
c) Madness
d) season over let's move on
e) must win game Saturday

Have I covered all bases? :)

My only gripe with Navas is his end product, he has pace to burn but rarely uses it to his advantage.

his end product if you look at his stats is reasonably ok


however if you compare this to the amount of times he gets into great positions to deliver and then completely fails....you are spot on
