Where is Fabregas?

Conte Out

 

Roman Out 

The side picks itself really, we only have four experienced defenders and it's wether we risk being too open in midfield with Cesc. Long gone are days when we had two quality players for each position.

I do love reading the reactions to our starting XI being announced.

The pre match meltdowns are a nice warm up of what to expect for the upcoming 90 minutes in this thread.

Think I'll pop back at full time following our victory to drink in some more sulking.

Sure you don't want to stick around and be miserable with the rest of us?

You must have been bursting with excitement all morning to make that one

 

nah, sorry you didnt catch it

I would have liked to have seen Fab starting but other than that it's an okay lineup, nothing special. Burnley shouldn't cause too much issues today, so I'm going for a 3-0 win to Chelsea

Conte what r u playing at??? Oscar been crap the last two games yet still picked in front of cesc what a joke....

No Fab, Matic and Oscar both starting. SIIIGGGHHHH.

Fabregas won't put up with being a league cup player. He will be off. Least Chelsea have the creativity of Oscar.

We are playing at home aren't we?  I thought with that line up we were at Turf Moor.....what a load of bollocks...it will be as bad as watching f**king paint dry.  I was hoping for some exciting football this year.

We are hosting a team that will sit back with 2 banks of 4 why are we fielding a defensive team? If anything you would think get a couple of goals with fab and bats on then tighten up when we have a lead not 80 minutes of dull then panic stations last 10 mins? 

I think he is trying to protect our frail defence with kante matic oscar

If you do that I can lock it until 5pm, then edit out the no shows off the bench and unlock.

Poll thread done, if you could lock it until FT that'd be great, cheers.

Could protect it better by dropping Ivanovic.

If our defence need that kind of cover against Burnley we may as well hang up the gloves now for to 4 or get moving with a LB and a CB before september. 

I do wonder if Conte doesn't rate Cesc that high. Its each managers choice but we seem to work better with Cesc playing.

Lol

Negatively starts already just thought it would be different i will stay away again. Just support the manager with his choices he picks the team he believes and his paid for to win.

Conte makes mourinho look like an attacking manager

Disappointed with the lineup, but surely Conte has a plan, let's give him the time he need. 

 

COME ON CHELS!!!!!!!!!!!

I understand and agree with your general sentiment, but based solely on the two first PL games, it appears we get little from Oscar-Matic-Pedro so why not get Cesc and Bats in from the start once for Oscar and Matic to see what we can do?

 

At least everyone has fully accepted Ivanovic at RB every match from now until the year 2050.

 

Come on you Chelsea!! :blue scalf:

It's a forum, the concept of which is people giving an opinion.

Disappointed there's no Fabregas in the starting 11, he couldn't have done much more when he came on last time.

Would have liked to see Fabregas start but good to see Willian back.. Come on Chelsea!!!!
