De Gea Rafael-Jones-Rojo-Shaw Carrick Herrera-Blind Di Maria RvP Falcao I think we can get away with playing that narrow diamond formation in this game as Chelsea's full backs aren't that big a threat going forwards However we need more support for Blind in midfield so if he is in good shape then I'd start Carrick (but I don't think LvG will given he hasn't even had a pre-season) I'd give RvP one last chance to hold his place in the side before Rooney is available again for City away |

& if there's no one to play ahead of him to help push Hazard into more defensive responsibility it's opening up that side of the pitch to abuse. We've had a decent amount of success vs Chelsea playing 4-4-2, being narrow out of possession & allowing Ivanovic to be the out ball, & looking at this Chelsea side he's about the only player you'd really want to give it to... the rest are quite £#%&!ing good. Our biggest saving grace, I hope... is Costa & Remy being out, & Drogba being old & slow. The higher line & hopefully a fitter Ander Herrera will help control the middle better. I'd be more tempted to go 4-5-1 / 4-1-4-1.... -------------------------De Gea------------------------ Rafael-------Jones----------Rojo------------Shaw -----------------------Carrick--------------------------- Valencia----Ander Herrera---Blind---Di Maria ----------------------Falcao----------------------------- Start £#%&!ing fast. |

Just reading lawro's prediction for the weekend and came across this:
'if it was not for their goalkeeper David de Gea, United probably would not have come away from The Hawthorns with anything, which does not bode well for the visit of Chelsea' didn't West Brom hit the target twice and score twice? de gea made literally no saves slating Rafael too. who has been our most consistent player over the last three matches. |

He was our best player against West ham and not far behind de gea against everton. and I said the last three games he does still make mistakes, but he's a scapegoat in the sense that most of his good work is either ignored or acknowledged through gritted teeth by the outside world. generally, he's been very good the last few games. but it's just not fashionable to say that. |

I think the diamond can help cover wide areas, but yeah I want to see us push up. Get Rafa snapping into Hazard on the halfway line. Presumably it will be Schurle up front on his own? Do they still do that? Either way with Rafa and Herrera on Hazard I hope we can push up and deal with them pace wise. |
