Hey mods, please forgive me if this is a bit premature but the game thread reached 70 and were already talking about the final In any case delete it merge it whatever im cool with it Anyway, since a whole bunch of our key players are outm here my linup Boss---Cahill-----Luiz---Ash ------Mikel-----Lamps------ ------------Mata----------- Essien-----------------Kalou -----------Didier----------- Basically what weve been playing but with Essien instead of Ramires, if anything studge on the left for some POW!!!
I really hope the loss of Ramires isnt what ends this miraculous run. Lets pray for an injury, red card free final, and a W of course.
I didn't watch the RM - Bayern match, so tell me who is going to be suspended for Bayern??? I saw they got a few yellows today.
Anyone know Bayern's probably lineup? Here's my best guess: --------------------Neuer Rafinha----Boateng-------v.Buyten----Lahm -------Schweinsteiger---Tymoshchuk Robben-----------Mueller-----------Ribery ------------------Gomez vs. --------------------Cech Bosingwa----Cahill---------Luiz-------Cole -------------------Mikel ------------Essien------------Lampard Mata--------------------------------Kalou -------------------Drogba
I would say more of Neuer Lahm boetang tymo rafhina Piggy kroos Muller Ribery Gomez robben But regardless, the Classico final jerk fest is crushed thanks to both of us And honestly if we end up losing to you guys it wouldn't be so bad, cuz you guys need a CL trophy sometime and you played like champions against all odds against Barca.. So here's a bow*
Does anyone think that RDM could somehow make a lineup where Torres and Drogba could play together successfully? That would really calm me a little bit because if both of them could play well together then we would have decent chances of winning this.
Why do you say that? If we don't win this, there's probably no Champs League for us next year, and a struggle to replace our aging players with quality replacements. Looking at the bayern defence, Badstuber is 23, Alaba is 19 and they have Rafinha(26) and Boateng(23) and Lahm(28) - the elder statesman....at 28!!! And that's just the defence! Bayern is set for many more years to come! Chelsea - not so much! WE NEED THIS!!!!
I'm thinking he might have to. But Torres might have to start somewhere in the midfield, maybe where Ramires played. We need someone of Rami's pace, and only Torres can match that. I'm thinking: -----------Cech--------- Bos---Cahill---Luiz---Cole ------Lamps----Mikel---- Torres---Mata---Kalou--- -----------DD----------
God damn it i make a great point. But the fact is Bayern is playing in their own back yard. What a shame if we let this opportunity slip away. FA Cup and CL runners up would still be an over achievement for RDM. We(Chelsea) can still make 4th place.
Van Buyten is still injured, I believe. We'll probably be: Rafinha----Tymoshchuk----Boateng---Lahm -------Schweinsteiger-----Kroos----------- Robben-----------Müller--------------Ribery -----------------Gomez---------------------- Best of luck, it will be a great final.
Our defence will have their hands full with these four! Let's just hope Robben gets in Ribery's face and they have another bust up at the 5 minute mark and both get sent off!!!! Ala Bowyer and Dyer!
