Chelsea last night

Re: Chelsea Vs City Pre Match Discussion Thread

We need to watch out for Mata, arguably the second best player on the pitch. I would be delighted with a 2-2 draw. Interesting that AVB would not be disappointed with a draw if press reports are to be believed.

ok i'll argue. assuming you are putting him behind Silva, my view is he is not better than Aguero, Yaya, Kompany, Hart, Dzecko, Richards, Balo, Nasri, Milner or Barry at least.

Assuming you mean the second best attacking midfielder, then i'd put him on a par with Nasri, maybe him have the edge. Good player, but he's flattered in a poor team so far.

3 Goals, 7 Assists... not too shabby

AVB just said it is game over for Chelski if they lose, Giving our boys plenty of motivation

They'd be 13 points behind. Unthinkable

Away to the rags, check
away to spuds, check
away to pool, check
away to chelski,
away to arsenal,

only two major away fixtures left, if we get three points on monday we'll be looking very strong going into the new year

Re: Chelsea Vs City Pre Match Discussion Thread

For me

Hart
Zab
Kompany
Lescott
Clichy

Barry
Milner
Yaya

Silva
Aguero
Dzeko

Milner providing cover for Zab and giving width, no need for Balo just yet Yaya has to play until released to go to ANC.

Re: Chelsea Vs City Pre Match Discussion Thread

Unfortunate that we have to play them when they are back in a bit of form, but with our team we can go anywhere and win if we play to our strengths

--------------------Hart---------------------
Richards(if fit)--Vinnie K---Lescott-----Clichy
-------------NDJ---------Yaya-------------
Milner------------Aguero--------------Silva
-----------------Balotelli--------------------

Tough game, but Chelsea will have to shuffle the back four and hopefully we will get some joy on the right hand side.

2-1 City , Balotelli and Silva

Nothing sinister.Dzeko works harder and has a better all round game,as such,in this match,i believe he would offer the team more.Barry likewise.
