SoccerHQ Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 1-1. Drogba being out is a huge boost for us as Anelka likes to drift wide and Kakuta is unknown. If we can nulify Chelsea they have little on the bench to change things. I'd bring in Ireland and move Young back out wide as he can get at Ferreria imo.

VILLAFC2000 Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Friedel C.Cuellar Dunne Collins Warnock Albrighton NRC Petrov Downing Carew A.young We won from scoring from two set pieces at home last year< I would do the same and put out a physical solid team to out muscle them from set pieces! Out of interest does does any one know roughly what wages Rafael van der Vaart on at spurs he seems a great buy - there wage bill must be huge! Up the VILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLA!

claret75 Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 I hope Downing and Young play on the flanks, with Ireland just off Heskey. We need experience tomorrow. With Drogba out, we've got a chance but only if we play well. Looking forward to it, got my tickets Tuesday, UTV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted October 15, 2010 Moderator Share Posted October 15, 2010 ----------------Friedel------------------ Young----Dunne---Collins-----Warnock ---------Reo Coker---Petrov------------ Albrighton-----------------------Young ----------Carew-------Heskey---------- I think we need to put pressure on them or they'll just steamroller us, so it needs to be two up front for me. If it's not working, swap one of them for Downing or Bannan( EDIT - or Ireland, who I keep forgetting exists.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 I really do hope Heskey can play tomorrow. Carew and Heskey have switched places recently. I have absolutely no confidence in Carew whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjw63 Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 I hate playing Chelsea, I hope they all get polio and play shite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiegoD Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Missing Lampard and Drogba will really hurt them, it means we can really focus on shutting down anelka and malouda without having to worry about the others pulling off ridiculous things. I'd play Friedel L.Young KingCarlos Collins Warnock or King Carlos Collins Dunne L.Young depending on Dunnes fitness Petrov NRC Sidwell Young Downing Heskey I'd play sidwell with the sole objective of kicking essien and Mikel in the middle, Chelsea are devastating on the counter and most of those attacks start with essien or mikel.

Nigel Posted October 16, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted October 16, 2010 We've got a chance. Didn't realise Gabby was still out though. Big blow. I'd go with; Friedel L.Young Dunne Collins Warnock A.Young NRC Petrov Ireland Downing Carew I think Albrighton will play ahead of Ireland, though. Carew ahead of Heskey? :? How quickly things change! Funny that only a few months back you would never have seen such a post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCU Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 But form-wise Heskey should definitely be starting ahead of Carew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
