Appointing guus was so pointless.

Might as well have kept Jose really

Let's hope Hazard has a good game once he finally comes on in the 82nd minute.

Why is Hazard still on the bench?

Still not at full fitness?

0-0 written all over this game

That was my initial expectation however I do not think we will stop United from scoring.

Mikel disagrees.

This match forum will be interesting during the game, see you after 90 then..

Are they not always though, especially this season?

with both line ups it looks like we are 'going Dutch' and sharing the points...

We really need to start trying to dominate sides, stop trying not to just lose, plat with some bravura, not this defensive bollocks.

Its going to be a sh*te game

Well, he was brought in to play it safe, and that is what he is doing. Surprised by Hazard on the bench, but my assumption is that he is still struggling with fitness. Otherwise, it is truly baffling.

Clever, very clever .

If the plan is to pick up 13 points by drawing all remaining fixtures I'd much rather us go gung ho and just try to win five and lose eight. The only explanation for this uber cautious line up of late that I can think of is practising a strategy to try and win the European Cup by a succession of penalty shoot outs.

I tend to give out each time i see the line ups when chelsea have matic and mikel on!  I ranted against Watford about it and others said "Maybe more is less".  So today i wont rant.  I will hope this team just gets us 3 points.  

 

But ffs!!!!  I bloody hate the way this manager just wants a draw at all costs!  okay - i wont rant! 

haha yeah i was that. Now you can rant i am also disapointed.

Death, Taxes and Chelsea's 2015/2016 line-up.

Rotation is for wimps.

If we win, i won't give a damn about the line up, but bloody hell, that is set up to get a draw again!!!. Show some damn ambition at least. We needlessly set up defensively against Watford and probably would have got the win if we had started Hazard, now it looks like we are doing the same again.

 

We aren't playing for anything in the league, why not just set up to win some games ? The fans are desperate to see some good football from what has been a complete let down of a season so far.

Thanks for the cheery insight. COME ON YOU BLUES!

Just expressing my frustration at the line up, as most of us here. Watford game doesn't bring happy memories ( or most of the other games played with Matic / Mikel ).  

Hoping for a miracle and a win though !

 

Come on Chelsea !

Hiddinks team selections seem to be just as predictable as Jose's used to be.

 

Very disappointed with the negative line up for a game at Stamford Bridge. I just hope he remembers he can use THREE subs and doesn't wait until late in the second half to start using them.

 

We can do this - COME ON THE CHELS!!!

Bets on how early in the match it will be before timetowaste slags off Oscar today?

I'm going for within 7 minutes.

Coward manager with no balls at it again ?

It was bad enough at watford but at home !!!!

Role on the end of the season when hes gone

Guus must feel that theres absolutly zero confidence in this squad thats why he keeps playing a safe hand...oh well come on Chelsea lets at least try & do something positive today...

A poor performance against Watford in midweek so Hiddink decides to play the same team?? Are we now playing for a draw in all our remaining games?

Sky JT just brought a tear to my eye. Come on John stick it to em today.

It would be brilliant if the fans sing Terry's name all game and sing for the board to give him a new deal.

Hope I'm wrong but this has got 0-0 written all over it.
