Chelsea v Newcastle - Official Build Up / Match Day Thread

That's that then. Howard Webb is on whistle duty Saturday...

As if the task for Newcastle was tough enough, it's impossible now!

No Tiote. Awesome. Think we've just gone from 2-0 or 3-0 to something much more resounding, to be honest.

 

Tiote is awesome.

 

He's done his hamstring. Going to be out for at least 3 games apparently. Hamstring injuries are dodgy but I trust Pardew to rush his return resulting in a setback which sidelines him for the rest of the season.

 

Chelsea usually don't go for the kill. Mourinho will choose his score. Probably 3-0 again.

 

Usually for whatever reason we seem to do alright against Chelsea. Think I'm going to be watching this one from behind the sofa tho. No Tiote / no Gouff / no Remy. We are in deep...

 

I'm going to revise my prediction to 5-2

 

think we going to get hammered .. 5 6 maybe seven its that bad .. fingers crossed ..I will be watching mr webb close today.. belive me hate the fooker


the little horse will come in the day ..and go close in the pl aswell ..they bought well ..




Jose Mourinho claims Chelsea are a little horse that 'needs milk and to learn how to jump' in title race ..the man is brilliant .pmsl got to love him lol

both different

 

link doesn't work fella

 

Kemen has traveled with the squad today. Maybe Pardew is going to blood youngsters now we have nothing left to play for this season.

 

that's what I'd do.
All we need to do is unearth one gem and it will pay dividends.

 

santon on the wing. wonder if pards has heard me say that! potentially our bale.

 

Very disappointed Yanga-Mbiwa hasn't come back in (what does he have to do Pardew? And for that matter, what must Taylor do not to get dropped?). But Santon in midfield can't hurt. May as well give it a go.

And at least there's no Shola.

 

The Liverpool game is making me feel pessimistic that this could be a day for big scores. I was feeling optimistic about our unpredictability earlier in the week, but today that seems to have ben taken over by a sense of impending doom.

 

Yeah it could get out of hand with the lack of ostensible defensive cover and Taylor playing.

 

We seemed to have turned a corner on not throwing in the towel when the game was lost but what I saw last week was a team beaten as soon as Sunderland scored. If we do that today they will score a lot more than three.

That said, if we lose heavily because Chelsea are brilliant (which they can be) I'll take it on the chin. I just want to see a bit of heart today. Another performance like last week and I think it becomes a very dangerous situation for the stability of the team, squad and club going forward.

 

Shame Cove isn't here to tell us how well de Jong is suited to the lone striker role. Glad to see he's ahead of Shola.

Santon on the wing is interesting and is what everyone has been calling for for a good while. Sammy deserves another chance based on his decent Norwich showing. Ben Arfa needs to start putting in some performances.

Disappointing that Taylor is still ahead of Mbiwa.
