Line Up For Southampton?

[DidierJoey]

This would be mine:

-------------------------Cech-----------------------
-Ivanovic----------Cahill--------Terry---------A.Cole-
------------------Ramires------Lampard--------------
----------Oscar----------Mata----------Hazard------
-----------------------Demba Ba--------------------

Subs: Turnbull, Ferreira, Luiz, Azpilicueta, Bertrand, Marin, Torres.

Luiz could do with a rest & Oscar deserves a start!

 

[bluemoon2]

That looks just about right to me DJ! Lets see how close you get!

 

[Ryan_wfc]

Mikel's at the African Cup of Nations isn't he?

 

[JCC87]

I am not a fan of playing all three amigos behind the striker

Didnt work against Swansea

Mine would be same backline as above but midfield onwards

Lampard - Oscar

Ramires - Mata - Hazard

Ba


Think we could do with trialling Oscar in the deeper role

 

[Drogs]

I just know Torres is going to start against Southampton.

 

[ThatThereSaintsFan]

I just know Torres is going to start against Southampton.

God I hope so.

 

[Varier2]

Torres starts against saints, Ba against Arsenal.

 

[JCC87]

Hopefully Ba keeps his place against Swansea too

 

[Bucks Blue]

This is a big game for us... really big and important to give us momentum going into the Arsenal game

 

[Schneiderlin's Foxy Face]

Pretty please play Torres.

 

[Chelsea Pensioner]

This would be mine:

-------------------------Cech-----------------------
-Ivanovic----------Cahill--------Terry---------A.Cole-
------------------Ramires------Lampard--------------
----------Oscar----------Mata----------Hazard------
-----------------------Demba Ba--------------------

Subs: Turnbull, Ferreira, Luiz, Azpilicueta, Bertrand, Marin, Torres.

Luiz could do with a rest & Oscar deserves a start!

Good call, I'd have Luiz in with Lamps, but you're right, he could do with a rest. Just hope Rafa switches midfield early if it isn't working, and doesn't wait till 5 mins from time.

 

[Liquidator]

Hmm.....given Rafa's comments above difficulty in breaking down teams at home the smart play would be to start with Ba; Torres in my view should be the bench-warmer from now - thanks to our Nov malaise we don't have a comfort zone esp with testing aways coming up at Utd, City & Scallies.

I agree--but with a subs bench that contains Torres, Torres, Torres, Torres, Torres, Torres... and er...Torres!

 

[JCC87]

Just dont expect to score any corners, because Fernando is good at clearing them
