Team for Chelsea, has to be!!!!

[LCBblue]

Okay after hearing in another thread that Bellers and Ireland are serious doubts this would be my team...

---------------Given-----------------

--Micah----Toure---Lescott---Bridge-

----De Jong----Kompany----Barry----

--------------Robinho----------------

---------Ade---------Tevez---------

Ireland is a huge blow as is Bellers IMO. Petrov is nowhere near as fistey and competitive as Bellers and we will certainly miss our creative midfielder.
I would compact the midfield to stand a chance against Chelsea.

Discuss....

if thats correct regarding bellamy and ireland then id go for that team....chelski play pretty compact football most of the time.....cole and boswinga (who is injured ) provide their width normally......Im not sure about dejong out wide though......swp can do a decent defensive job and also adds an attacking htreat there as well which would mean dejong would go central and kompany would miss out

 

[Man1City]

after SWP quality game, and the publicity being revolved around him for this game, you've left him out, put him on instead of Kompany, and switch him with de jong

 

[Bluemoon115]

You'd drop SWP?

Its not that Id drop SWP, its more that with that lineup, where does he fit in? Id have to drop Tevez, who, like SWP was magnificent on Wednesday.

..."Obviously, its a hard choice for me and Shauns giving me a lot of managerial headaches and previously, er, last season I would not have had these challenges, but obviously its a good thing to have these headaches about team selection and obviously we have good players that will obviously put in a good shift, obviously."

Richards.....Touré....Lescott.....Bridge

...........de Jong........Barry...........
SWP..............Tévez..........Robinho

..................Adebayor.................

Free kicks: Barry,
Right corners: Barry,
Left corners: Robinho/Tévez,
Pennys: Robinho,
Captain: Touré.

Bench:

Taylor,

Onuoha,
Zabaleta,

kompany,
Weiss,
Bellamy/Ireland/Johnson,

RSC.

I agree with this, and I was on the fence about SWP, he said in a post match interview he would be able to play and that it was nothing serious.

I hope for this team or my OP. This one probably though.

 

[Rammyblues]

According to physio room SWP doubtful for game.

 

[Carl_Man_City]

I'd start off the same hard to fault anyone on Wednesday harsh to drop anyone. If I did make a change it would be bringing NDJ or Kompany in.

...................de Jong..................
........Zabaleta...........Barry..........
Tévez.............................Robinho
.................Adebayor..................
