Pre Match Thread: Chelsea vs City

[carlos tevez is a blue]

That Chelsea bench is wank.

 

[pudge]

Well, Pellegrini has quite clearly lost his mind

Why do you say that?

Leaving on of our best players, let alone defender, on the bench for a player who has played like his free transfer was too much to pay is very odd; Especially as they'll be up against Chelsea's best player.

Unless of course he has lost his marbles.

 

[RandomJ]

No Fabregas is a boost but seeing Sagna in the side never fills you with confidence.

Milner and Navas didn't work at all against Arsenal, they need to use the ball much better then they did that day. And I hope that if Manuel wants more attacking options he goes with Jovetic and not Lampard.

 

[MeatnSpudsMCFC]

Keep the ball away from Navas and we'll be fine.

The line ups have a nailed on draw look about them...

just wear them down and nick a goal, there's not a lot on their bench.

Good shout,just hope at full time we aren't saying what if...

 

[TonyM]

Sagna - well that's the end of that. He is painful.

 

[Love Bites and Everything]

Sick of this useless Chilean yes man fucking about with our defence.

Biggest game of the season and no Zabba.

Fucking joke.

Zabaleta has gave away some silly free kicks this season and most people havent noticed it. With chelsea really good at set pieces and us bad at defending them - hopefully less free kicks will be conceded.

I can understand that why Pellegrini opted for Sagna in this case (although didn't see it coming), but boy what a meltdown will it be here if Hazard makes a fool from Sagna. :D

Mind you, Zabaleta always has trouble against him and likes to get an early yellow.
