Re: Champions League - NK Maribor vs Chelsea
I don't mind who starts in goal, just think Jose will stick with Courtois.

"Chelsea are a big club, probably the biggest to ever come to our stadium."
"But I trust my colleagues, we believe in ourselves and we know that we can play against any team in the world."
"Of course Chelsea are big favourites, but they will have to beat our defence first."
"Everybody knows Chelsea - we watch them every week - so we know that they don't have any weaknesses. But at the same time we are not afraid of anyone."

Re: Champions League - NK Maribor vs Chelsea
Just like Liverpool did, we should be resting players in this game, would like I see Oscar in particular rested. Good chance to give ramires and zouma some minutes too

I'd play Ake over Ramires, tbh.
But yes, we should be looking to rest players.

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho tells his players to go for the kill against Maribor:
José Mourinho has told his Chelsea players to go for the jugular against Maribor tonight

http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/408643/Chelsea-Jose-Mourinho-Maribor
"We still need to qualify and teams with nine points are almost there, but when you have seven we have to win two more games."
"Of course we will go for the jugular against Maribor. We have to get maybe 12 points to win the group, maybe 10 to qualify.:
"We have to dispute the first spot in the group. It is not fundamental but it gives us a better chance."
"I have to focus and make the players focus on Maribor's other two games - 1-1 with Schalke and Sporting - and make them understand we won 6-0 because we played very well, destroyed them in the first half and gave them no chance because of our very strong attitude."
"I have to make them understand because seven points is not enough."

Mourinho on rotation and Oscar in particular:
-
— via the Daily Star
-
-
"I rotate. Ivanovic, Terry, Hazard, Matic, Cesc did not play Shrewsbury."
"Cahill did not play against Maribor when Zouma did."
"The strikers are rotating because of injury. I think it was just last week where Oscar, Filipe Luis and Cahill played all three games."
"Didier Drogba did not play against QPR from the start. Only three players have played all three because we try to leave players out."
"Terry does not play in the national team so when the international break comes he has his rest. We are controlling it."
"Is Oscar going on the bench against Maribor? Maybe yes, but maybe not."
"You can imagine it's not easy to make a decision to rest a player who in this moment is my best player."
"Does he need a rest? Maybe yes after last week. But is it the right decision to leave him out?"
"I don't know. This is just one example. It's not easy."

Re: Champions League - NK Maribor vs Chelsea
Is it a good idea to rest our only #10 and one of our most fragile players for a game we should be winning well with a half strength side as we head into the busiest part of the season AND with a key game in our title hunt on the weekend?
Theres no maybe in it for me, and its not like playing two games a week rather than three is going to impact his momentum in any significant way

Re: Champions League - NK Maribor vs Chelsea
So Oscar rested and replaced by Schurrle, Drogba leads the line, Zouma paired with JT at the back, and surprisingly Luis keeps his place at LB.
Side that should be eminently capable of winning.

Zouma header just wide. Should have hit the target, at the very least.

Brilliant. Drogba being driven off injured. Down to one striker again.
