We can be beaten to top on head to head only but would require to lose our next 2games.

Assuming schalke win tonight and we win and we lost to sporting and schalke.

Don't matter who lined up would be weak at the moment

GavRedKing

I cant wait for Saturday now.

Wrongway1985

Boro battering Norwich at the mo and look set to join Bournemouth on 30 points on the top of the championship, Paddy Bamford got the opening goal he also opened the scoring against Rotherham the weekend.

GavRedKing

Arsenal 3 up and now its 3-3.

Jaysus.

grumpymunster

Arsenal really sweet going forward really dodgy defence.

After suffering through that Madrid game would certainly hold Costa back for Saturday

GavRedKing

I wanna see costs play tomorrow anyway hopefully get a couple.

Wrongway1985

I'd probably suggest here.

And maybe check the Liverpool side of it.

Failing that, you might get lucky on Twitter, numerous Chelsea Ticket places to check out.

They might have something.

Thanks a million, appreciate that

If we had taken one of our 4,057 chances against Schalke we could have played the youngsters tonight in slovenia, alas it wasnt to be.

Zouma and Ake are the most likely to play and Brown and Solanke could feature at some stage.

hullaballoo

Solanke is playing for the U19s at the minute. They were 5-0 up vs Maribor at half time.

peteeeed

the youngsters are having a good time of it at the moment , 6-0 up into the 2nd half away to maribor

hullaballoo

6-0 now, Solanke subbed off at half time.

If we're 6-0 tonight at half time we should just call the 2nd half off.

Get home a bit earlier. :pac:

Pity im working so ill miss the game,anyone have an idea how potentially we could line up?

From joses presser its going to be a strong team, he suggested as strong as possible.

If i was to guess what I'd expect,

Cech
Azp Cahill JT Luis
Matic Cesc
Willian Oscar Hazard
Costa

Although the team could easily feature, Zouma, Christensen, Ramires, Salah, Schurrle, Drogba.

Make changes once the game is wrapped up.

Lukker-

I reckon the team will be:

---

Cech

---

Ivan-Zouma-Terry-Luis

---

Matic-Fab

---

Ramires-Willian-Hazard

---

Costa

---

Salah could come in for Ramires. I think Oscar will be rested.

GavRedKing

Its hard to guess the team but thats a good thing, shows we've got good options to play even if our strongest XI doesnt.

I love the line he uses "Once you go a goal down against them it's virtually impossible" I think it's a great compliment of sorts and surprised a player like Suarez to have that attitude of basically that the game was lost when we scored first that day.

He mentions Chelsea had a chance of winning the title and should have played to win? But they went on to win stupid statement.

The criticism such as our team parked the bus was nonsense we had nothing to defend even a draw and Liverpool were still in driving seat in title race, if anything Liverpool should have parked the bus and was a stubborn approach to go all out.

To be fair, I remember that game well and the Chelsea players were clearly time wasting from the very start. Seven minutes into the game and I remember a throw in near the corner flag taking forever. Jose is a clever chap, they were sent out with instructions. This was during the period where Liverpool were blitzing teams at the start of the game. Slowing everything down was a good idea.

He has tried similar tactics with Madrid. I remember one game where Ramos took over 90 seconds on a free kick and got booked on purpose.

peteeeed

Chelsea: Cech, Ivanovic, Zouma, Terry, Filipe Luis, Fabregas, Matic, Schurrle, Willian, Hazard, Drogba.

peteeeed

Chelsea Subs: Courtois, Cahill, Azpilicueta, Ramires, Oscar, Salah, Diego Costa.

True although Ramos never needed Mourinho to initiate tactics like that, he was one of the players who gladly held the Bernabeu exit door open for him too.
