The Chelsea Thread

[Subtle]

Starting 11: Courtois; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Azpilicueta; Matic, Fabregas, Ramires; Oscar, Willian, Hazard.
Subs: Cech, Filipe Luis, Zouma, Mikel, Loftus-Cheek, Cuadrado, Drogba.

Very disappointed to see Solanke not even make the bench today.

4-6-0? If so, we are going for 1 point.

With 10 points ahead of Arsenal, Jose could have played Solanke, it's not like they have incredible odds of catching us anyways.

Should have been a penalty.

Ospina barging into Oscar a dive?

 

[Theatreof Dreams]

Cahill and Terry are a class pairing!

I'm kidding mate.

I'm kidding mate.

You what mate?

Guess we're kind of even now. Ref could have given a penalty at Cahill too.

Na not a peno that! Should be 1-0 up though.

Rules are in a grey area when it comes to these situations. Referees usually do what they think is right.

What you guys think of Oscar? Disapionting imo.

He is there for the hassle in my opinion. Jose is probably resting Drogba for the late game, he went missing last week in that period.

I don't think non stop football for the last 3-4 years has helped him tbf

Doing about as well as expected in that position I would say.

The game hinges on Fabregas imo. He's been getting chances to start the counter and hasn't always found the right pass. If he can tighten things up, can definitely see us taking it.

Cheers guys. Was not trying to be a WUM or say hes **** coz I actually like him. Like someone said maybe a bit burnt out or not in his favoured role.

A good player in a **** form is what Oscar is for some time.

Should be a straight red, not a pen though IMO.

He's lacked his creative spark for a while now. That little flick last week is the sort of thing he was doing much more when we signed him but he's looked jaded for the last year or two. He desperately need a rest and some competition.

A small injury to rule him out the copa America this summer would do him the world of good
