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

[Haffa]

Cech ahead of Courtois for me, Luis ahead of Azpili, Zouma just edges Cahill, Ramires to partner Matic, and Hazard-Fabregas-Willian behind Costa.

---------------Cech
Bane---Zouma--Terry---Luis
---------Ramires-Matic
--Willian--Fabregas--Hazard
--------------Costa

Solid bench as well with Oscar, Remy, Drogba and Cuadrado available.

Only uncertainties are Cech vs Courtois, Cahill vs Zouma and Ramires vs Oscar.

Will probably be Courtois, Cahill and Oscar.

Would take a score draw away from home.

Cech v Tiboo is still a very nice problem to have

We'd have to be disappointed if we didn't get at least one away goal

 

[Big Sam]

Frankly you should be winning comfortably especially with Stompy back.

PSG have been well off the pace all season. Conceding twice in added time at home to little old Caen is indicative of that.

Yeah, I expect Cortious to start but Cech deserves it.

They've got a heap of injuries and we are in better form but it's the CL. Form really goes out the window in these ties.

 

[Mong]

Spot on. Genius and personality

It's hardly surprising that Mourinho is whinged about by bitter supporters of less significant clubs whose managers have little of either

The mean nasty people iz all pickin on poor Jose

Waaaa Waaaa

:lol::lol:

 

[Jimbo]

Cahill and Tiboo start

Strong team. I'll be disappointed if we don't take a lead home

PSG starting lineup (4-3-3):
Salvator Sirigu | Maxwell, Marquinhos, Thiago Silva, Gregory van der Wiel | Blaise Matuidi, David Luiz, Marco Verratti | Ezequiel Lavezzi, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Edinson Cavani

Luiz in midfield. We invented that! I was looking forward to seeing Luiz in defence always a mistake in him. Smart by Blanc.

I can't help but get nervous when I see a front three of Lavezzi - Ibrahimovic - Cavani...

 

[Haffa]

Won't be a scoreless game that's for sure.

DM is his best position, that's for sure

I was disappointed to not get Cavani. Hopefully he won't show us why

 

[Jimbo]

Beautiful goal. Wonderful flick-on from Cahill

Advantage us

 

[Haffa]

Forget Hazard, Fabregas and Costa. That's a John Terry cross, Gary Cahill assist and Branislav Ivanović goal.

 

[Haffa]

DM is his best position, that's for sure

First time he has played there for PSG.

 

[Jimbo]

We certainly have a unique way of doing things

CB -> CB -> RB -> goal

 

[Jimbo]

I was disappointed to not get Cavani. Hopefully he won't show us why

Sometimes being right all the time can be a real pain in the ass...

 

[Haffa]

Man of the Match: Courtois
Runner up: Courtois
King of the World: Courtois

I'll take that result. They haven't lost at home in the CL in years.

 

[Jimbo]

It's pretty rare for us to lose at home too

1-1 will do

[Haffa]

They won't be watching him play live again that's for sure.

 

[Haffa]

Bamford scored, water is wet.

Bamford scored, water is wet.

Ho hum...
