Chelsea F.C. II: Return of the Special One

[Jimbo]

Your position is clear.
If united had equalised 10 mins earlier would you agree with me? ;-)

If your aunty had a c**k she'd be your uncle...

Anyway, who cares. Your happy with jose, I'm happy with what united are starting to build.

Then we're all happy!!

Anyway I'm leaving the Chelsea thread to the chelsea guys.
I have a more local affair to worry about now.
Jimbo and Haffa can forget everything they have just been thinking and saying about United and start supporting us for 90 mins!
Sport is stupid, you gotta love it! :lol:

All the very best with Exeter. Hopefully you can do a Chasetown...

 

[Jimbo]

I doubt you will go undefeated.

Something stupid will happen somewhere like vs Sunderland or Villa.

Got a realistic chance at 4 prizes but I'd be happy with the league if I were you. Anything else is a bonus.

I'd be very happy with the league too. But we really should win the League Cup from here given that the only serious opposition left is Liverpool and maybe Spurs and Southampton

 

[Haffa]

Pretty much how I feel. All I want is the league, if we happen to add any other trophies well I'll take those too, but not at the expense of that league title.

Spurs :lol:

 

[Jimbo]

Spurs :lol:

Yeah, I know

Even with the 'maybe' I was still like :doubt:

 

[WireMan]

Yeah, a lot depends on what team he puts out though, that's why I don't think you will win it.

Not saying you won't, but with league cup its not the normal Chelsea playing.

 

[Haffa]

Look where the ball is. Impossible angle. Still amazing.

 

[saint.nick]

When it got to Oscar I knew the ball would end up in there. But not like that.

 

[Jimbo]

He's certainly doing the #8 shirt proud

 

[Haffa]

Full strength team available for saturday. Think Dave comes in. Not that Luis hasn't impressed.

Full strength going into an international break

Fingers crossed they'll still be that way after...

 

[Haffa]

Courtois
Ivanovic
Terry
Cahill
Dave *

Matic
Ramirez

Fabregas

Oscar
Hazard

Costa

I was mulling this as a side (*would pick Luiz personally in case Dave was rusty).
Also, I wanted Fabregas to have space without the risk of leaving the defence open if he loses the ball. However, looking at it in print it could easily become a bit narrow defensively in front of the back four and perhaps leave the attacking options stretched.

I'd still take a draw to be honest. Just got the usual pre-game classic chels feeling. A draw or shock loss wouldn't surprise me. Blips happen, and we're tired after Maribor. Could just as well be a 3 nil lashing by us of course - just have a bad feeling.

 

[Jimbo]

Any tiredness from the Maribor game would more likely be from the flight back than from exertion

I cant see is sitting back like we did last year, because there simply isn't the need. Our defence is still too leaky for my liking though

If you're worried about it, just think Hazard v Johnson...

 

[Jack_Napier]

You blokes will pummel us. hazard, Cesc and Costa will have a field day with our amazing defence ��

 

[Jimbo]

We were supposed to pummel QPR too

Hence Haff's concern

 

[Haffa]

Sure, but we haven't been entirely convincing lately. We made a garbage United defence look good a few weeks ago.

 

[saint.nick]

We haven't been entirely convincing either...

 

[cb4]

I will be in attendance for this game. Cannot wait.......... for full time.

 

[Jack_Napier]

Yeah but at the moment mate, Liverpool seem pleased only losing by 1. We've been rubbish and flat and I'm never confident against you blokes. You did us when we we're firing last season, this time could be ugly.

 

[Jimbo]

This thread has taken a rather bizarre twist

Chelsea fans and Liverpool fans trying to convince each other that their team sucks more...
