    Haha. Excellent response to last year Mourinho punchline

    "This is not the best league in the world, this is football from the 19th Century," said Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho of West Ham back in January. "The only [other] thing I could bring was a Black and Decker [tool] to destroy the wall."
    Chelsea and West Ham drew 0-0 at Stamford Bridge last year.

    At least the build up to the game is well set-up :D.

    This is an excellent and proven strategy.

    I was trying to think of who had a good Xmas pun-able name. Terry Xmas has already been rolled out. Any more?

    Chelsea had 39 shots last year to West Ham's one. They had the most ever on target for a team that didn't score!

    Well, I think this gameweek is going to be a disaster (it just feels like it will be?), so I'm going to ignore football, spend time with the family and the other half, and hope for the best. Have a good day, everybody!

    Chelsea line-up v W Ham: Courtois; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry (c), Azpilicueta; Fabregas, Matic; Willian, Oscar, Hazard; Diego Costa. #CFC

    *Immediately regrets getting rid of Costa and not captaining Hazard*

    :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,262 ✭✭✭iroced


    ... and starting Sakho ahead of Siggy already feels like a big costly mistake :o...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,709 ✭✭✭✭Cantona's Collars


    Left Hazard in my team just in case-result!:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,254 ✭✭✭Steven81


    Didnt expect Jose to have his first team out, lets hope for some Hazard magic.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,255 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    Made an 1130 switch to Hazard (c).

    Game updated as I made the change so didn't go through :-D

    I know the feeling, made the same in vain change from Sakho to Siggy (from team to bench).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,607 ✭✭✭patmac


    Transferred Haz to Fab with Costa as captain, so not too disappointed, glad I didn't do Costa to Giroud now.

    Captain Falcao.... looking forward to today


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,256 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Main rival has captained Sanchez so a one pointer would be most welcome now.

    Yes he is. So definitely coming in. Guaranteed a 1 pt cameo now :(...

    All my hopes are now towards Wenger to fully rest Sanchez (my captain) so that Silva gets the armband and Siggy subs in...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    Oh hai guyz. Rocking out of bed, arsing around and just checking in now

    #CasualForXmasNotForLife

    Assuming my team is as I left it then:

    De Gea
    Azpi - O'Shea - Cresswell
    Sanchez - Hazard - Sterling - Siggy
    Austin - Bony - RVP (c)

    Boyd - Wisdom - Hutton


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,657 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    Well no rotation at Chelsea really.

    Considering the bench players they have - Cech, Schurrle, Salah, Mikel, Luis - it's amazing really.

    Strongest squad in the PL but Mourinho just doesn't do rotation.
