Is Oscar fit for this game officialy?

 

Think Mourinho said he has a full squad to select from expect the suspended Terry. 

Physio room has them both down to return this weekend plus Moses was filming an Adidas commercial on Thursday...

Eva?

Eva?

 

She's fit and available but no confirmation on if José will select her for the squad.

I think we need to throw the grand piano at them tbh...

 

Noone asked about squad fitness, no comments on transfers and the refs are at is again basically:

Would really love Oscar to be back in the line-up tomorrow but I doubt he'll be in the squad, which is disappointing. Not to criticise Willian too strongly (except his final ball), but a home game against organised opposition like this is made for Oscar to pull strings from the #10 spot.

 

The rest of the team continues to pick itself, or at least it does given José's tried and tested methods. Baba would be an interesting surprise but I'm betting we won't see a start from him until Walsall.

 

Courtois, Bran, Zouma, Cahill, Azpi, Matic, Fab, Pedro, Willian, Hazard, Costa. 3-1 win.

 

And if we could finish the game without a red card, that would also be super nice. ¬_¬

Here's a very ambitious prediction as I'm in a positive mood, 3-1 with goals from Costa, Pedro and the late sub...Falcao.

 

 

Chelsea 3-1 @ 11/1

Stake: £3.00

Estimated Returns : £36.00

 

And

 

Last Goal Scorecast

Radamel Falcao / Chelsea 3-1 @ 55/1

Stake: £2.00

Estimated Returns : £112.00

 

And

 

First goal scorecast

Diego Costa / Chelsea 3-1 @ 50/1

Stake: £1.00

Estimated Returns : £51.00

 

And

 

Anytime scorecast

Pedro / Chelsea 3-1 @ 20/1

Stake: £2.00

Estimated Returns : £42.00

 

 

This is just a back up of my bpl prediction, any returns half gos to the site as usual.

 

Lets get those pretenders looking over their shoulders with a decent performance.

Good luck chipster.

So will we be able to finish this game with 11 on the pitch this time?

 

Who is the ref?

I would really like to see Baba play in this match because clearly Ivanovic isn't doing his job properly (although I know this won't ever happen)

 

GK: Courtois

 

LB: Rahman

CB: Zouma

CB: Cahill

RB: Azpilicueta

 

DM: Oscar (If Fit) / Fabregas

DM: Matic

 

LW: Hazard

CAM: Fabregas / Willian

RW: Pedro

 

ST: Costa

Id settle for Cesc behind Costa except we dont have anyone to play next to Matic beside RLC or Mikel. Ramires could either be great closing down their CMs and running them off the park or he could be completely anonymous for 65 minutes as they pass around him.

Take it back, just found out Ramires is injured. This is as good an reason as any to play RLC.

3-0 Blues today. Come on Chelsea.

Not a bad shout that chippy

SHOULD be a routine win for us today... I'm sure there will be plenty of discussion after the game, just hope we get 3 points in anyway we can

So will we be able to finish this game with 11 on the pitch this time?

 

Who is the ref?

 

Craig Pawson.

 

He's refereed only one of our games since he became a Premier League ref in 2013. That was at Selhurst Park last season...the one where both Azpi and a Palace player got sent off. 

 

Not a great omen, is it? >_>

------------Courtois--------

Dave--Cahill--Zouma--Baba

------Matic---RLC--------

-Pedro--Oscar--Hazard-

----------Costa----------

Take it back, just found out Ramires is injured.

 

Is he really though? 

Despite being at home, I expect Palace to get a result today. A 2-2 draw or even an upset win by the odd goal will not surprise me. The Defense and the pivot midfield is a big mess and with the suspension of John Terry, no competition for Matic and Fabtegas and the expected inclusion of Ivanovic despite being the worst player in the team, it will be a shock if Palace does not score.

Apparently Ramires and Oscar have withdrawn from the Brazil squad due to injury so I would assume that they wont feature today, not found anything to confirm this 100% anyone know?

Rhaman has been included in the squad today so could make his debut.

Don't forget that there could well be a minute's silence prior to the match due to the Shoreham Air disaster.

I expect Zouma to step up and have good game, talented player, will be solid at the back today (hopefully).

Is Kennedy in the squad?

Yes, he is apparently.

Zooms starts but it's as expected. Kennedy, Baba and RLC on the bench.
