Pre Match Thread: Chelsea vs City

[raymondkl92]

only surprise is Zaba out. Good team though, C'mon city

 

[mosssideblue]

Well, Pellegrini has quite clearly lost his mind

Why do you say that?

TEAM NEWS @MCFC: Hart, Sagna, Kompany (C), Demichelis, Clichy, Navas, Fernando, Fernandinho, Milner, Silva, Aguero #chelseavcity

I'd be surprised if Zaba's been dropped in favour of Sagna.

He must have a knock.

looks like Manuel has gone for industry over guile although with what he has to select from i would probably go the same apart from sagna

 

[BigOscar]

Very surprised with Zaba being dropped, but I guess Pellers is worried about Chelsea cheating him off the pitch again. Other than that it's pretty much the only team available.

All year we seem to have had really little in the way of exciting players to bring off the bench. All very slow and central players, not much in the way of width or pace to change things.

Anyway, come on CIty!

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Zaba on the bench so I would assume he's fit.

Big call from Pelli though Sagna is good in the air.

Fabregas missing as well for Chavs

 

[chestervegasblue]

Good team, though I'd rather have a half fit Zaba than a fully fit Sagna on this season's showing.

 

[bluemoon98]

No fabregas,costa or cahill.

Chelsea fans worried about matic and ramires though apparently ramires leaves himself to get the ball took away from him easily
