Premier League - Chelsea vs QPR

On Wednesday, Chelsea 'welcome' bitter West London rivals Queens Park Rejects Rangers to Stamford Bridge, in what's shaping up to be a very entertaining London derby...at least for one side anyway .






Chelsea will go into this match as overwhelming favourites, as QPR sit rock bottom of the Premier League having been thrashed 3-0 by Liverpool on Sunday, and Chelsea coming off the back of 2 immense away results over the Christmas period.






Chelsea will be looking to continue on their good run of late, and a poor QPR side at home is just the fixture the players and manager would have wanted to extend their winning streak and exercise the team's attacking muscles.

Missing for the Rejects are Onuoha, Dyer, Park, Zamora, Johnson, and our old friend Unibrowsingwa. Chelsea will be without John Terry and Oriol Romeu, with JO Mikel and Ryan Bertrand set to undergo late fitness tests, while Petr Cech is very unlikely to feature after sustaining an injury in the side's 2-1 win over Everton on Sunday.

Come by train, come by car, come to laugh at QPR

Expecting an easy win. Rest a few key players?

Certainly wouldn't be averse to Mata starting on the bench. One or two others possibly as well.


Frank simply MUST start though! He could well get half of the 11 remaining goals he needs in this match
alone

Would like to see Oscar start this match. Starting alot of matches of late on the bench and it would be great to see him start one and show his worth...

I think it's more likely we see Moses again tbh. FSW [quite smartly, admittedly] seems to be using him up as much as he can before he goes off for ACN and keeping Oscar fresh for when he does leave.

my line-up

turnball
cole-cahill-ivanovic-apizi
lampard-luiz
moses-mata-hazard
torres

maybe oscar starts ahead of mata because hes more fresher? And Torres, I believe in YOU to SCORE, make them your betch!

Turnbull; Azpilicueta, Cahill, Ivanovic, Bertrand, Luiz, Lampard; Moses, Oscar, Marin, Torres

Some nice rotation here tbf.

MARIN IS ALIVE?!

What a monumental f.uckup

I only saw the last 20 minutes. What was the problem with the team?

Some blonde tosser up front who does nothing.

Benitez decided to rest Hazard and Mata

From the official fb page lol:

Chelsea 0-1 QPR

AVB must be dancing round the table.

Ba in, Fernandon't Scores out . . .

As much as I'd love to blame FSW, this was NOT his fault. The team he put out was imminently capable of brushing aside QPHAHA with ease. He should be able to rotate the squad against shit sides at home without having to throw our best players on 20 minutes from time and pray they save the day because the lot he started with couldn't get the job done themselves.

Sorry, this time it's on the players.
