*** 2014/15 Pre-season Friendly Thread ***

Team to face Besiktas: Cech; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Filipe Luis; Fabregas, Matic; Ramires, Willian, Hazard; Diego Costa
 
Brilliant.

His goal was such class - he beats four defenders, and makes it look so effortless. It feels good to have a real striker on the team again!
 
If that team we started the first 45 with stays fit we'll do just fine this season, but if Costa gets a long term injury we'll struggle again as I don't think Drogba's got it any more and Torres is just Torres.
 
Agreed. I think centre-forward is still the weak link in our squad. If Costa stays fit, we'll be fine. But if he's injured, we're back to relying on Torres. Which puts us right back with all the issues of last season.
 
was that hazards first pre season game? Hasn't had too much of a mention so far, be interesting to see how he is this season with the pressure of being the main goal provider of him.
 
Our new RB hasn't had any defending to do what so ever though :p

He looks comfortable enough controlling the ball though and passing
 
Coutinho has been absolutely incredible, Brazil were insane not to take him to the world cup. Some of his defence penetrating passing is like a wire-guided missile.
