[toffeejack]

so how many players have we got missing for this match? a whole team? jesus

coleman, mori, snides, gueye, mccarthy, besic, barkley, klaassen, sandro and bolasie?

Funnily enough it was Mourinho who sold them, also, their situation is completely different, those players were 21-22 years old when we sold them, and were considered great prospects( apart from Salah maybe, but i have no regrets over this one), Matic is 29 years old, he is what he is, and what he is, is an average midfielder who can go on good runs of form every now and then.

Mate... you sold matic like the others and them signed him back for huge money... thought that would be pretty common knowledge seeing as your a supposed Chelsea fan

 

[TheBigIguana]

Seriously who do we have in central midfield?

One of those in vogue terms that make me squirm. "Physicality" is another!

 

[TyphooToffee]

I don't often bet but won £80 on the Mayweather/McGregor fight, so might put some of it on a 1-0 to us

..he might play Martina in there. He gets around the pitch quite well.

If we need to, could walsh step up into the midfield void? Heard good things about him, but no idea if he would be defensively minded enough?

Think he's just focusing on recruitment now. LOL.

As for the other Walsh, it would be a huge step up but how fantastic to have two local lads in him and Davies in the middle. They will have played together for years anyway.

All that said, I reckon Gana will play.

 

[Jeff Jones]

We can beat these.

Koeman would have learnt from last season, and the Chav's are not as strong as they were as well. No Costa, Hazard, Matic, Cahill. Rudiger has underwhelmed for them, Bakayoko and Morata still are getting to grips with the game in England.

2-1 to us.

Never thoughta that. Even so, we haven't put in a solid 90 minutes yet, in spite of our good results, and if Chelsea
put in a good shift we might struggle. I'm still hopeful, though, and I've got a live 10.30 pm kick off.

If they score first I'll go to bed and watch the rest in the morning.

 

[Ring master]

Going to have no one at this rate lol

 

[Aberblue]

Going to have no one at this rate lol

If that's true we surely must have a forward lined up. Letting Mirallas leave wouldn't make sense otherwise.

*clutches straw*

Nah, i watched him for 3 years every single match he played pretty much, when he is good(which is almost never really, as he was a passenger most of the time) he is great, but FAR too often he does absolutely nothing during the whole match and tends to slow the play down way too much. Trust me, he is in good form right now for United, but give it 5-6 games and you will start to see how Matic is capable of being an absolute non entity during a game. There is a reason we let him go you know, if he was truly as good as United fans think right now, we wouldn't have sold him

HAHA, amateur football fan alert.
Reminds me of those plastic UTD fans that think Carrick is crap cos he just runs around MF passing it to his mates.
