IF this is the Chelsea team, I for one will be VERY happy.

wanted us to draw Manure as I am confident we would have been able to get them out the way.

But Barnsley did knock out the Scouser scum, which then again isn't exactly a hard thing to do.

I think this is a game to use a 'weaker' team in to give the fringe players a game and also give the more regular players a rest.

Cudicini;

LB: Youth player

CB: Ivanovic if fit, otherwise Alex
CB: Ben Haim

RB: Ferreira

DM: Mikel

CM: Sidwell
CM: Woods?

LW: Tejera? or another exciting youth player.
RW: Sinclair

ST: Ben Sahar? Pizarro?

Bench:

Hilario
Makelele
Essien
Kalou
Pizarro - If playing then another youth player

A mix of experience and youth would give the youth less worry as the senior players can fill in the gaps left by the inexperence of the youth.

Not a hope in hell

Lampard will be playing, and Terry, and one of Drogba and Anelka minimum.

 

sahar will be at oakwell ,but the week before, playing for the scum,wensdy,he's in talks for a loan move to cover sodje's injury

 

Oh I know, but if it was...

I would be VERY happy

 

Dream on.

They played a stronger team against Huddersfield, and that was at home.

 

Avram Grant will play a strong side

They'll kill the game, then pick us off. It'll be 3-0 to Chelsea, we'll be lucky to get an attempt on their goal. Totally different proposition to Liverpool.

 

RE: Avram Grant will play a strong side

If our goalie has a good day again I think we can keep it tight.</p>

I think Chelsea will let us have the ball , its up to us to do something with it.</p>

 

RE: Avram Grant will play a strong side

If DeSilva can avoid his 1st half display v Liverpool and settle quickly then we'll be better for it. </p>

Only variable for me is do you start with JCR instead of Diego ?</p>

&quot;be prepared to wait to get the ball off the blues - they're very possessive&quot;</p>

But he also said</p>

&quot;considering one of their goals was a lucky ricochet and the third was a tap-in after Glennon made a fantastic save it were a right good showing from the Terriers&quot;
</p>

 

The team he played agains Huddersfield

A long way from their strongest</p>

Cudicini ,</p>

Paulo Ferreira ,</p>

Ben-Haim ,</p>

Terry ,</p>

Bridge ,</p>

Sidwell (Shevchenko ,75 ) ,</p>

Obi ,</p>

Lampard (Essien ,81 ) ,</p>

Kalou ,</p>

Pizarro (Anelka ,85 ) ,</p>

Sinclair </p>


Subs not used: Hilario,Carvalho,</p>

 

RE: My huddersfield supporting mate said...

I'm anticipating a game where we do a lot of chasing down the ball. </p>

Chelseaare a much better team than Liverpool</p>

 

RE: My huddersfield supporting mate said...

One of the guys in midfield had a really good game , dont know his name though.</p>

Chelsea were never out of 1st gear though in reality.</p>

I was shocked when Hudders scored as they hadnt been out of their own half.</p>

Excellent backing though from the Hudders fans.</p>

 

RE: Avram Grant will play a strong side

I think our best chance is to get our best wide players on and spread them out.</p>

I thinkChelsea fullbacks can be taken on , especially with Cole not playing very well , and Wayne Bridge being Wayne Bridge.</p>

I think we will have to do a lot of chasing down as well, so we might go 1 up front, to put an extra man in midfield.</p>

Drogba or Anelka up front rather than Pizzaro might cause usa few concerns as well.</p>

 

RE: My huddersfield supporting mate said...

I'm sorry, how do you get to this conclusion?

Did they not draw 0-0 at Stamford Bridge 2 weeks ago?

I think we will give Chelsea a very good game, and if we play like we did at Anfield and get a bit of luck - we can win.

 

RE: My huddersfield supporting mate said...

11 points adrift of Chelsea. </p>

You're using that Primary school logic again - we beat Liverpool once this season hence we are better than them.</p>

 

In that case

I'd be happy if they put the under 15s out.

 

Phone the News Of The World quick

You perverted swine.

 

RE: My huddersfield supporting mate said...

Liverpool are in a DIFFERENT league to us. Yet, we beat them.

Are you not using the same logic??

 

RE: My huddersfield supporting mate said...

Eh ?</p>

Crackerjack.</p>

 

RE: My huddersfield supporting mate said...

Indeed.

Fact of the matter is this, we're going to beat Chelsea.
