    Why don't they put the players in the correct order of positions? It's daft.

    Hopeful we can get something from this game. Chelsea suffered last year with the pace and trickery of Mane - here's hoping for the same tonight. Line up is what I would have hoped for. JWP may consider himself a little unlucky but with the height that Chelsea have at the back and with Terry organising them for dead-ball situations I would be surprised if we got much off them tonight in that area. Besides, we have VVD for that under expert tuition of RK for free kicks! :emoticon-0100-smile

    No Matic, no Courtois?

    Numerical order.


    I guess it's done so as not to give away formation....for the times when there's a few different formations possible

    But it's not numerical order, Stekelenberg is 22. It's just unnecessary. I'm unhappy now and I want to cry.

    1. It's Romeu in for JWP
    2. Davis was good against Swansea (as was JWP)

    To be honest, I just wanted Romeu in for one of those two.

    Consistently reliable for the past 3 years Steve Davis, or a youngster who is only just - after 3 years - beginning to find his feet.

    I'm as big a JWP fan as any one. But this is Chelsea away.

    Had to bring Romeu in for this one against the best three attacking midfielders in the league at home.

    JWP is unlucky, but that's the way it rolls. You might argue for him to play instead of Tadic, but then that could be over cautious

    Currently getting nothing on the radio (saintsplayer) - hoping it will start at KO

    Anyone got any good streams for this one?

    We can always bring on JWP if we go behind. Plenty of options from the bench.

    I would have started with Davis and JWP. Romeu hasn't really convinced me that he's better than these two.

    You have got to be kidding? Neither Davis nor JWP are defensive midfielders. Wanyama would be left exposed. And Romeu has been very good so far.
