My lineup:

 

Courtois

Azpi Zouma Terry Luis

Matic Ramires

Cuadrado Hazard Remy

Costa

We'll put in one of our best performances of the season today.

Just have a feeling today.

 

Was just about to say exactly that.

I'm never confident, especially now every game's a cup final. Need to unleash our attacking abilities today. Not go for the grinding 1-0. Easier said than done I know but if it's an open game, our quality should shine through.

Hull 0 - Chelsea 5

 

We are gonna f**king smash them mate.

I like the optimism some of us have and I hope we do have a smashing result. Gosh, we really need it and we need to up the tempo of our remaining games.

 

Am feeling very nervous though, truth be told.

Not going to be easy il take a 1-0 win now!

TiVo

Ivan Cahill Terry Dave

Matic Fabregas

Willian Oscar hazard

Costa

Not my first choice but the one I c Jose going for , rami next to Matic and fab up in oscars place maybe his only change.

Is Willian available for selection?

Considering every other c##ting team treats there games against us like a f##king cup final then i think we should start treating every game left likewise!!! KTBFFH!!!

Have a gander at this twitter account.

Come on Blues.

Heading in to the international break, our two closest rivals win yesterday and the 4th place side are winning as i type this.

Anyone else agree restoring our 6 gap is crucial to our confidence and overall chances of winning the title?

 

On a side note, I really hope we see our other players start stepping up and taking the pressure off Eden. We do NOT need another title run in where everything is left to him while others do little to nothing.

 

Against a side like Hull we should be able to expect Oscar, Willian, Cuadrado, Remy, etc or whoever else is picked to show they are a cut above. If they cannot, then you have to question their long term standing at the club.

Predictable....and disappointing...but safe

I thought Willian was out?

Apparently not

4-3-3 or Fabregas in the number 10 role?

Or is Ramirez going to play on the right with Willian in the middle?

Interesting to see Luis start, might get a lot of width from both fullbacks today.

So Luis hasn't played a single minute of football for a whole month, hadn't played a single minute before that for three and a half weeks.....and he's thrown in today away to Hull.

 

That to me is odd but I trust Jose. Not the team I'd have picked but he's the boss and something about his Italian shoes.

Apparently not

Odd, way people were going on I thought he was out for sure.

 

Good team anyway, would have liked to see Cuadrado start even if his performances so far haven't warranted it. 

I would have liked to see Cuadrado get a full game today, or oscar. But Jose seem's quite happy with Ramires's last outing and if your willing to deal with the occasional brain fart he has when all our player our in front of him

RLC on the bench at the expense of Drogba.

Just for show or signs of progress?

Hopefully we can actually play well today. It's not pleasant going into each game not even looking forward to it much because of how sh*t we've been for months.

I hope Ramires isn't playing wide right.

Probably right to go 4-3-3 away from home, and Ramires deserves to start after last weekend.

 

Azpi is one of my favourite players but it'll be good to have a left-footer at LB, hope to see some crosses from that wing today.

Ramires was actually pretty good away to West Ham so I understand him playing but the Cuadrado signing is looking worse each day.

Drogba's been sh*t for months so he deserved to be dropped but I wouldn't expect RLC to get anything meaningful. If Mikel was fit it would be him.
