Janne HHere is my Chelsea XI versus Birmingham in FA Cup saturday (BLUE)

Im expecting to see formation 4-4-2 against Birmingham, thats cause we have Drogba and Kalou back from Nations Cup. They had good tournament and they were leading IvoryCoast to Nations Cup Final. I think we need to take a chance to see how they manage to play together. There is also a possibility to take this to 4-3-3 by using Torres as a wide player and Kalou,Lampard and Drogba playing in front, Frank of course a bit lower than Drog and King Salomon. Torres has been creative and why cant we use him as a creative player, we know he can pass and he can trouble defenders with his runs. Hopefully he also start scoring soon. We also need to give some playing time our duo Terry and Ramirez who have missed few games in recent weeks. Its important to see their fitness before important UCL game against Napoli. Luiz is a suprice weapon to leftside, he played alot in LB when he was in Portugal and he was effective there. About our promising Bertrand, now is the best change him show his talent in leftside so maybe AVB releases him. Cech can have a day off and Turnbull can cover him.

Chelsea XI versus Napoli in Champions League tuesday (WHITE).

As we have seen 4-2-3-1 has been very good when playing against big teams. When Mata and Sturridge has dropped a bit deeper our defensive play has been great. Burning hot Drogba in attack with Lampard feeding his runs from CM i think Napoli will suffer a lot. Ramirez makin his runz into box will be fun to watch. We have been missing these lads and i really feel that they will tear napolis defens parts. Romeu will show to AVB against Birmingham why his the nro 1 in DM and thats why i added him also in this XI. But reality is that we probably see Essien in DM role against Napoli. If we see this type of formation i hope that Ivanovic plays more defensive role and Luiz got more freedom to go forward. Sturridge and Mata can help them like they did against Valencia. This is how i see our next two very important games and time will show how we end up. Lets keep The Blue Flag Flying High!
