Welcome Elves and Reindeer to BK's festive match thread! And today, like it seems to be every year (or maybe that's just me) we're playing Fulham. Bar Wigan are results recently have been favourable, hope we pick it up with a clean, deserved win
And I hope you guys all had a good Christmas __ let's hope Chelsea give us an extra present!
So here are the teams...
Chelsea:
---------------------Cech--------------------
--Bosingwa-----Luiz-------Terry-----Cole---
-------Meireles---Romeu---Lampard---
----Sturridge----Torres---Mata--------
Subs: Turnbull, Ferriera, Malouda, Josh, Kalou, Drogba, Lukaku
VS
Fulham: Stockdale, Kelly, Hangeland, Senderos, Riise, Dempsey, Murphy, Sa, Dembele, Frei, Ruiz
Subs:Etheridge, Sidwell , Baird, Kasami, Hughes, Etuhu, Briggs
= Dangerman!
Sorry for not doing a Fulham team graphic but they are playing with one midfielder and five strikers/wingers so only St.Nick knows what formation Jol has picked
Kick-off: 1:00
Venue: SB
BK Prediction: 2-0

We did play a high line at the start of the game, couldn't get the ball, so we dropped and got it.

Looks like you need a cash injection to sort it out.

The game felt like we were in a no mans land ... not at home ...awful game....until the last quarter of an hour we didnt feel like a team thats clear about its formation. an unmotivated performance especially as we needed to win this game ... their goalie made some important stops to be sure but we just didnt press enough ...losing 5 - 0 to untd didnt help us as they d shored themselves up, a frustrating game. seems like Ramires is a big miss for us in midfield
