Posted November 23, 20159 yr Should win this one. Hopefully comfortably and convincingly to build some confidence going into the Spurs game. ---------Bego Azpi-Zouma-Terry-Baba ------Matic-RLC Willian-Cesc-Hazard ----Costa Though I reckon Kenedy deserves to start this, can't think of who he can replace. Maybe Fabregas. ---------Bego Azpi-Zouma-Terry-Baba ------Matic-RLC Willian-Hazard-Kenedy ----Costa
November 23, 20159 yr With Tibo participating in full training for the past week and change, does he get some minutes in this one if we're a head? I think that'd be a good move.Â
November 23, 20159 yr We played well against Norwich, we have to continue in that way.We can't disrespect the opponent, but we're few levels above.  I'd like to see us starting like that:  Begovic  Azpi Zouma Terry Baba  Matic RLC  Willian Hazard Kenedy  Remy/Traore   COME ON CHELS!!!!

November 23, 20159 yr With one eye on the Spuds game (which i DO believe we can get something from!) its going to be a conundrum of who to pick for the starting lineup and who to keep 'fresh'...  Do you:  Keep the momentum of the last win and stick with the same players (Kennedy being the exception at left back)?  or,  Add a few new players to the starting XI (RLC, Oscar, Cahil, Remy come to mind) and risk killing the progress set in the last game?  or  A bit of both, same starting XI (Azpi taking RB) and brig on some of the names above pending the score line?  All in all, if we can play with the same flow, 'confidence', passion, drive as we did against Norwich,. i'll be happy (and hopefully that brings us a results) mixing with the lineup / formation MIGHT hinder the momentum we have, and its VERY fragile as it is!
November 23, 20159 yr Jose will probably look to rest a couple of players he wants to be fresh to face Spurs. Most likely to be rested would be Terry, brana, cesc and willian imo. Begovic Azpi Zouma Cahill Baba Ramires Matic Pedro Hazard Kenedy Costa
November 23, 20159 yr Should fingers crossed have two tickets sorted out for this tonight. Unfortunately in the home end but I've sat with the spuds and sh*t fart lane before, with the gooners at the Emirates so this should be easy
November 23, 20159 yr Should fingers crossed have two tickets sorted out for this tonight. Unfortunately in the home end but I've sat with the spuds and sh*t fart lane before, with the gooners at the Emirates so this should be easy  Nothing easier than sitting with the gooners at their ground.  Will look out for you barak, give us a wave when we score a goal down at their end.
November 23, 20159 yr Definitely worth while to give the likes of Remy, Baba, Oscar a game. We need to find out how good is Remy is when there are good services from the midfield, and the short turn around plus travel requires some rotations.
November 24, 20159 yr Win and we are confirmed 2nd, is that right?If dynamo Kyiv lose then I think we are
November 24, 20159 yr FC Porto    4 3 1 0 9 4 5 10 Chelsea     4 2 1 1 7 3 4 7Dynamo Kiev 4 1 2 1 5 4 1 5 M'bi Tel-Aviv  4 0 0 4 1 11 -10 0 If dynamo lose or draw, and we win we are guaranteed to go through.If dynamo win it all goes down to the Porto game and with a draw meaning it should go down to goal difference as all 3 teams would be on 11 points and head to head won't be applicable as it would be a triangle.So hopefully we can rack up the goals tonight just in case. Edited November 24, 20159 yr by PedroMendez
November 24, 20159 yr If we draw and dinamo lose, we'll be 3 points clear of them with a better head to head record.
November 24, 20159 yr Tricky to guess the lineup for this one, I can't see Jose fielding many youngsters, especially with a few more experienced heads having been rotated out for the last few games.   I'm going to predict:  Begovic  Ivanovic Zouma Cahill Azpi  Matic Ramires  Willian Oscar Hazard  Costa  Fingers crossed we come out the blocks and get the three points. We'll have good options on the bench too, regardless of the starting XI.  And as with the rest of the forum too, I'd like to see more minutes for Kenedy & Loftus Cheek. Looking forward to this one!
November 24, 20159 yr I don't want Costa to play. Need him 100% for Spurs. If he doesn't turn up we don't win on Sunday imo
November 24, 20159 yr Would like to see RLC given a full game,needs minutes did well in the reverse fixture.maybe Cahill in for Jt to rest him for the s**t from the lane.
November 24, 20159 yr I'd love us to win and Dinamo to win. Would be an excellent final round of this group stage. At home against Porto for top spot.
November 24, 20159 yr Having posted my choice of 11 earlier, now what I think it will be:  Begovic  Azpilicueta Terry Zouma Ivanovic  Matic Fabregas  Pedro Hazard Willian  Costa
November 24, 20159 yr I'd love us to win and Dinamo to win. Would be an excellent final round of this group stage. At home against Porto for top spot.If dynamo win we would need a win against porto to qualify,dinamo lose tonight and we have qualified
