Torres

My hopeful team next year

Cech
Azpi-Cahill-luiz-Bertrand
RAMIRES-KDB
MATA-OSCAR-HAZARD
TORRES

If we get FALCAO slot him where Torres is

TORRES IS KING

KDB is not gonna be a defensive midfielder that is for sure, if he is in the team he wil be playing on the right where Mata is, Mata playing center, Ocar being defensive midfielder.

KDB has been playing as a CM on loan.

De bruyne is a better midfielder then he is winger. Was at genk is at Bremen. BLUEBOY1

being in the pivot doesnt automatically makke you a defensive mid

Wouldn't you agree that we need a player like m'vila desperately I watched him for Rennes last week he was class just sat in front of the two cb's his tackling was great his long ball passing is awesome and he can even shoot well

Benwrexham91

Totally agree

PB

I don't really think we need anyone except a striker

Have people actually fallen off the Romeu bandwagon after one bloody game? This kid will be the next Xabi Alonso, I guarantee it. His positioning is first class, ability to break up play is first class and his passing is first class.

He is 21 years old and had an off night, mainly due to his amount of game time this year. Once Mikel heads off to ACON and Romeu gets a run of games, I assure you that Mikel will struggle to get back in the team.

The answer to our problems is not 'lets just buy another player'. Everyone always calls for the youth to get a run, then if they make a mistake, they are slaughtered. Get behind them.

Melbourne CFC

With Lampard likely to leave in January it's likely we will buy a CM/DM.

Not neccessarily. Chabolahs loan expires in January I'm pretty sure, and from all accounts he is dominating the Championship with Watford. If we buy an established player it only hinders his and Romeus progress.

Melbourne CFC

I can ensure you Romeu is gonna be some of the best defensive midfielders we wil ever get, he is extremly good i rate him better than Mikel, and Ramires in the long run but that goal was only due to lack of game and a very poor dicesion by Cech. Di Matteo really need to start switching players out to get some players some rest and the benched some experience aswell as some games in their legs. It could be an issue in a few games if Romeu only has played 2-3 games for half a season and just get throwed out there to play against a big team, when Mikel is gonna play in Africa.

Romeu is better than Mikel offers a whole lot more all round. BLUEBOY1

ED002 how did Bruce Buck become our chairman? i heard he was a top lawyer back in America ? {Ed002's Note - Buck left the States around the same time as I did about 30 years or so ago. He is still a working lawyer and has worked with Gazprom and Sibneft. He was also directly involved with the legal aspects of the purchase of the club and, as part of the arrangement, took over from Ken Bates as Chairman.}

Afternoon guys, I dont support any team in the EPL but enjoy watching it. Have to say the chelsea team this year has been a revelation to watch and in mata have the best player in the EPL by a country mile so far. Also in Oscar you appear to have a cracking player, he makes everything look so simple.

All the best for the rest of the season. I fancy yous may be in for a trophy or two.

Cheers

This coming from a fan of manchester united...champions of.....oh wait i forgot you didn't win anything last season. You're not worthy of talking to fans of the champions of europe, sorry

aL

you finished 6th in the league, won the champions league by luck and united have one bad season and you take the high ground..

united may have lost last night but out of the 2 sets of supporters can you say chelsea fans are the proudest..

Champions league by luck? Are you taking the mick mate? You couldn't make it past the group stages. In a relatively easy group! We came from 3-1 down against Napoli to progress to Benfica. We beat Benfica in both legs convincingly to get Barca. We beat Barca at home 1-0 then went to the Camp Nou and playing with 10 men managed to get a 2-2 draw. Yes we played mighty defensively but ffs it was a semi, to progress to the final. We did what any team would've in our position and advanced. We then had to play Bayern at the Allianz Arena (their home pitch) in the final. We managed to level with one of our only real chances (shows a lethalness in front of goal) in the 89th min and then managed to beat them in penalties.

Your an absolute bitter flog mate. Give credit where its due. And before you ask for the same, I have not posted once about Sundays game claiming we were robbed.

Back to your hole muppet.

I'm a Leeds fan (i know "who asked you?!")

But i can safely say Manchester United are by far more vilified by the football league and Premier League than Chelsea.

Chelsea might have won by whatever limited stretch you argue last season....but they've got far more support across the nation to succeed, than Man Utd.

MOT

We won the Fa cup you person!

Peds

You can not honestly say the premier league has vilified Man utd in anyway at anytime. The FA it can be argued is far more lenient towards Man Utd and more so SAF. If your talking about the wider community of fans then I agree. Success breeds jealousy, and Man Utd and the most successful team in English history. That jealousy leads to a form of hatred, it's the same in many walks of life.

But in contrast if you look at the recent racial claims made against Clattenburg, whether true or not, the English media as a whole have decided to claim instantly that we are claiming something that is false, due to the fact, we as a club, feel like we were hardly done by, with decisions on Sunday. This is appalling. If a player (from any club) has claimed he was racial abused by a ref, this player is without doubt the victim. It is being banded across the majority of media and fans that John Obi Mikel is lieing. Which is a disgrace.

We as a club are now, in the present, the most hated club in England in the media. Without doubt. The JT case, he was the one coping the abuse and hung out to dry because he made the comments. Now that it's reversed and Clattenburg is accused of making the racial abuse, yet we are still the ones being banded about as liars. Where is the consistency in that mate?

Week after week on here I see Cesar, Romeu and Sturridge picked for teams, but I think we all saw tonight that the guys that play ahead of them are better. Cesar, caused a penalty, Romeu got caught in possession and Sturridge missed, tried stupid things and isn't a team player.

I thought Mikel looked way better than Romeu and his experience definitely showed, granted Romeu doesn't play much, don't think he's going to walk into the first team.

Cesar looked good, but was a little naive and got caught out ball watching. Still got a lot to learn about the league.

Sturridge, he's not the right player for Chelsea, anymore. Say what you like about Torres, he's better on the ball, has a better cross and well, he passes. I'd rather have Torres with assists than missed opportunities.

No a great game tonight and nothing to be excited about. Moses looked good, but we had to bring on our first team to beat them, not ideal. They way we ended is probably very close to the team we'll see in a couple years, but they'll obviously be much better. Good to win, but we should have done better.

Craig

I'm a united fan in peace, fair play tonight good win but I was really expecting an absolute hammering tonight and I though we matched you's up to extra time.

01 Nov 2012 10:07:53
so craig because cesar gave away a penalty you dont think hes good enough ?? are you forgetting that was ivanovic's second red card of the season already id much rather give away a penalty when we are 5-3 up than have a man sent off at 2-2

curt

We had players on that have barely had game time and you think they dont cut it. Harsh.

Once they get to play more they will improve

Why did I laugh when sturridge fell on his face. Dont think I would dislike him so much if he didnt do that stupid dance

Azpilicueta caused a penalty in the 120th minute, fatigue comes into mind.

Good post craig ,spot on, dont take any notice of curt what he knows you could write on a matchstick.

ktbffh

Curt, read my post, all of it. I said Cesar looked good, but got caught out and has a lot to learn about the league. I don't think he will start ahead on Ivanovic yet, in the new year, maybe. I liked the fact that he looked like a natural right back, if that makes sense.

Unsigned, I didn't say they didn't cut it, I said they aren't starters, at the moment. And I think I said they haven't played much. I don't think Sturridge fits in at Chelsea anymore, but he was good for Bolton.

ktbffh, thanks. I thought they had fixed the dripping tap, Ed?

02 Nov 2012 15:04:22
lol i know more than all of you the sooner you realise the better

curt

Curt im not sure what you know because i dont tend to read your posts you dont know how to construct a sentence and im therefore sceptical at best i actually struggled to type in a way that you could understand because my phone tries to correct the sentence for me so here goes i didnt say cesar was bad I said he looked good

ps i could ask my phone if it would be willing to help you out if youre interested please contact siri

Oscar came on and & changed the game. Mata could do with a rest but those three are so good together not sure we can risk it in any game. Not with the pl being so competitive. Would've loved to see Marin tonight tho. {Ed003's Note - Oz,Mata and Hazard are class too watch and I'm not a Chelsea fan}

Am sure Mata can be rested. Play Oscar in the middle of the three, with Hazard and one of Moses/Marin either side of him. Strength in depth.

Hass

01 Nov 2012 14:13:02
i wouldnt be surprised if mata comes off after 50/60 minutes on saturday or once we are in a comfortable position but in all honesty the 3 behind the striker i would go for

marin oscar moses

just for a change

curt

Marin won't start he's only just returned to fitness, would be good to see him come on after 60-65 mins though.
