Stoke City Vs Chelsea (PL) 7/11/15 17:30GMT

Am I only who want to see Iva tomorrow? We need tall players in set pieces, they are good in air.

 

Hazard-Willian-Pedro, amazing trio, hope to see them tomorrow.

[IliyaKrostin]

There's no need to change our defence. Azpi Zouma Terry Baba did well against Dynamo and they should continue. Baba finally started to play well and it would be a mistake to drop him. 

[GhostOfDembaPast]

Need some size against these big lumps - esp in midfield.

Begovic

----------

Baba

Terry

Zouma

Azpi

Matic

RLC

Oscar

Willian

Hazard

Costa

[bloodyfool0]

Not confident at all, however, an own goal and another Wiilian strike to the rescue!

 

Stoke will be hard to break down. Can't see this being a high goal count affair.

 

Anyways, we're all hoping for +3.

[timetowaste]

1-1

[DD11EH10]

Stoke are a physical team so wouldn't mind going with  4-3-3 but that is most likely not going to happen. Need to play Hazard and Costa this game to try and get them back into form, wouldn't mind seeing Pedro either. 
 

My line up 

Begovic

Azpi

Zouma

Terry

Baba

 

Matic

Ramires 

 

Willian

Hazard

Pedro

 

Costa

 

Subs to use- Kenedy, Traore, RLC

[Zinc]

Keep the same back 4 that played in the Kiev game. 

 

Stability is more important now than to play Ivanovic due to his physicality against a tough Stoke side (wouldn't want to rush him after just recovering from his injury too). 

 

At least with Baba around, Stoke's right-sided players will have to regularly defend against another player from our left.

 

If we can work on the positives as seen in the Kiev game, then I think this could go in our favour.

[IliyaKrostin]

Gameday! Let's continue to win, come on boys!

 

COME ON CHELS!!!!

[CFC-Forever]

3-4. Last minute winner (yep...I'm serious).

[DD11EH10]

So pumped for the game!!! #COYB

[Thrives]

This will be a big test, but I think the lads will be up for it. They went toe-to-toe with Stoke last time despite Adams being an absolute c'nt. I definitely think Hazard should play, they will trip him all over it the place and we will win free kicks. I am worried Rami will get absolutely outdone by them, so I would prefer if he doesn't start.

What Id  like to see:

 

Bergo

 

 

Dave

Zouma

JT

Baba

 

Matic

RLC

Fabregas

 

Willian

Hazard

 

Traore

 

 

But in reality, Costa will 100% start, Rami will not be dropped.  Be interesting to see if Hazard gets his starting spot back and alos  pedro is fit now

[Salad Monster]

Begovic

Ivanovic-Zouma-Terry-Azpi

Ramires-Matic

Willian-Fabregas-Oscar

Costa

 

gg...

[Zola Power]

I think we'll do it today. Keep the same defence and start Kennedy. 3-1 I reckon.

[Womble]

We really really need these 3pts today so keep sending out the positive vibes boys n girls we can do this COME ON CHELSEA!!!!

[carrickblue]

I'm hoping our guys will go thinking that there's a few scores to be settled with this lot and really give them a good going over.

Come on you blues

[TheChelseaBlues]

Anthony Taylor,he'll probably book Willian for getting his ankle to close to Charlie Adam's boot.

Same guy who apologized for the Soton game last season. He can make up for it today by offering our players some protection

[Wolv]

Lets do this boys. Let's turn this season around

[Xfaxtor]

Am I only who want to see Iva tomorrow? We need tall players in set pieces, they are good in air.

Hazard-Willian-Pedro, amazing trio, hope to see them tomorrow.

If only Ivan was good in the air, he gets beat A LOT on set pieces defensively. He constantly loses his man

[JoeyN]

Another night of drinking and drowning in my own depression if we lose this.

[Stahlgewitter]

17.37 here,cant wait[emoji3]

[barak81]

17.37 here,cant wait[emoji3]

Your either in the middle east or close by? Or Russia

[RickUK]

3-1 Chels.  Willian, Costa/Remy, Hazard

 

Diouf for Stoke to equalise. Then we dominate

 

Come on Chelsea!!!!

 

 

On a side note, the Willian song re. Tottenham makes me cringe now. Dont know why
