I can see kalou stealing minutes and then ousting anelka before chirstmas in this formation.

better and more suitable player for me.

Picked Anelka over Drogba, great start...

foolishness! if they both play up front drogba's gigantic ego jush pushes anelka out wide!

edit: ze german is coming on, prepare for some elbow action!

Dunno about this. I think Anelka will weigh in with a few goals as well.

Get Anelka off ffs, ruining chances of Lampard+Drogba assists...

Must admit the Ipswich chick shirts are good, quite flattering.

I expect their annual pie budget prohibits buying the most recent version, and your never going to find a cheap 08/09 season kit in XXL :wink:

chelsea pressure big time!

TheMightyTorres · **Posted:** 15 Aug 2009, 14:11

Anelka is having a shocker of a game, completely ruining good chances! :evil:

I'm getting more and more worried about my captain (Lampard) as I'm sure a lot of us are, he doesn't seem to be doing the job at the front of the diamond. :shock:

You are missing a few XX's there :wink:

Charlton need XXXXXXL, trust me :wink:

bristolciteh · **Posted:** 15 Aug 2009, 14:16

Me too. I'm also worried because I thought Evans would start (was travelling and couldn't check team news). Etuhu or erm, Fahey might make an appearance. Bother.

jamielfc · **Posted:** 15 Aug 2009, 14:17

O'Neill

He's picked Heskey instead of Carew :lol:

Drogba has been impressive, but on this performance he is going to fetch just 6 points.

I reckon Rooney might get a few more than that by virtue of Brum not having a full complement of defenders to choose from.

Need at least 5 points from Lampard though, this isn't going well at all.

marxist · **Posted:** 15 Aug 2009, 14:21

Delph starts for Villa. Interesting.

predator_05 · **Posted:** 15 Aug 2009, 14:22

Where are you guys getting the lineups from ?

blahblah · **Posted:** 15 Aug 2009, 14:22

Isn't the clear blue water with drogba, rather than Cpt FFL? Most people will have him as Cpt, and fewer have Drogba?

How do you guys envisage the new diamond formation impacting upon Lampard this season. I originally thought that it would suit him, but I'm not so sure now. Early days, admittedly.

blahblah · **Posted:** 15 Aug 2009, 14:28

I guess Hull are running around like loonies etc....

Never judge anything on a game against one of the relegation favourites in August, or until they have had a tonking.

Devious · **Joined:** Wed Jan 02 2008 **Posts:** 3337

Anelka subbed off.

Hopefully Lampard can avoid a 3x2point start.

Early days, but he does look slightly lost at the moment ..

4 points for a captain is terrible, I'm getting rather edgy. :roll:

Come on Lampard!

blahblah · **Posted:** 15 Aug 2009, 14:31

We will find out who is taking Chelsea's penalties soon.

This from a Liverpool supporter.

but in all seriousness, a cheeky assist from Lamps wouldn't be all bad.

yeah lampard corner with drogba scoring would be allright for me.

Trick away games against Sunderland and Fulham next, not exactly the teams you'd expect to be involved in high scoring losses...

Was planning on switching Lampard to Gerrard for the next gameweek anyway before this match, this has only confirmed it.

A bit hasty, no? Gerrard's not even fully fit.

TheMightyTorres · **Posted:** 15 Aug 2009, 14:40

Six minutes injury time :mrgreen:
