Can't agree less too, but then its time to move forward. Good, the work on the defence is done, our strenght is waiting, can't believe these attacking talents can ever be this boring, but then I think its important for the balance of the team. Its time to play our strength. The balance achieved.

beautiful thread. Havent really lent my voice to many discussions on here but i find this one an intelligent observation and so have to comment. Judging from the club's history, one could see it was the Roman revolution that brought the global popularity and success to CFC. The team was supposed to be an 'average' team - not sounding rude. So you see, fortunately the club is just a cool club that just does his things calmly, quietly and perfectly. Players love the calm atmosphere and so are enjoying it 'cause they get success and yet in a cool atmosphere. Morestil, the manegement treats them well. Thats why you see much stability in terms of players in the club.

then probably oscar and luiz behind him,

he deserves a good partner (whether not frank) in d pivot, somebody like meireles.

That performance against QPR made me so sick. I mean why spend a fortune on attacking players to sit back and struggle against an average QPR side. Come on RDM, that selection was simply a joker. Fine, there was an international break (i am equally not a fan of the break, it should be reviewed), but the 3 points at stake looked so simple to grab. Obviously, at 34, after playing against moldova and ukraine, Frank deserved a rest for Juventus especially when Brazil's no 10 was available for selection. Rangers will not score against that team but there wasnt any single bite, no spark to get the ball inside the net.. However, from the foregoing, the obvious starting XI is 4-2-3-1 cech ivanovic luiz/cahill terry cole mikel ramires mata hazard moses/danny torres frank is going to start anyway but except tough decisions are made, this might be a loss.

well, i may be in the minority on this but i opine that moses should regularly start in that team. In the opener against wigan, he played better than all chelsea players bar hazard. So why is he not given dat RWF or LWF role; on the opposite end of eden.

i concord. But the only teaser here is would chelsea need a buy to get a real enforcer. David luiz, yes, luiz must be relieved of the rather huge defensive pressure and given that chance going forward.

i concord

i mean, whats all this fuss about moses, cesar, schurrle.......

''Even as a chelsea fan i have to laugh. We swiftly spend 70M on players without battling an eyelid then haggle for weeks over spending on an additional 2 or 3.''

''chelsea closes in on right back, cesar'', daily mail.co.uk. Chelsea's weak defence can finally heave a sign of relief.
