The Beeb says to squeeze the midfield and stop those creative Chelsea midfielders from getting any real estate and to shut of the supply to Sheva. Looks like the Beeb is going with a 4-1-4-1 (or a 4-5-1) and finds no space for an Essien or Drogba. Easier said then done. It will take a tough and speedy defence/ midfield to squeeze these guys. My bet is Liverpool. Or overwhelm the tough Chelsea defence with some great firepower. Again Liverpool.
One comment on “Can you give Chelsea the blues?”
I agree Liverpool has the best chance to thwart Chelsea’s formidable attack. It’s difficult to imagine the likes of Gerrard and Carragher unable to stop Lampard and company. Or not scoring if you have Bellamy and Kuyt in your squad.
Jose’s mistake is to bring too much talents into the squad, and that could well cost the team their bond. I wouldn’t rule out an internal conflict that might cost them as much on the field than off the field.
