Chelsea Story - By CharlieM92

Chelsea

I have picked Chelsea for not much reason really. I guess that they have a good solid team and I hope to add and improve it. Have to say, i'm not the biggest fan of Chelsea but oh well!

Media Prediction: 2nd
Board Target: Title Challenge
Budget: 14 Million

I think my formation(s) this season will be 4-1-2-1-2 and/or 4-2-3-1.

I will sometimes post about just the one game when I can. Then sometimes monthly results.

Hope everyone enjoys reading.

That's a good sign! Hopefully it works for me.

Transfer Update

A AMR for the future. Joel Valencia. Had him in previous saves and turns out to be very good. Might be in the reserves for a while. Going to buy another AMR soon. Had to pay around 1M in compensation to get him.

Transfer Update

Clifford - Sunderland 500K
Anelka - PSG 4.5 Mil

Anelka was not signing a new contract and I don't think he would of got into the first team anyways. So I thought getting money for him was a good deal.

Transfer Update





Contento - 12 Million
Lavezzi - 27 Million
Both over 48 months.

I needed a sub LB. And Lavezzi will be my main AMR. This will probably conclude my spending.

Well what about Bertrand being your subbed left back? hes a very good player, good tackler and passer of the ball

#45543 patrick1 : Well what about Bertrand being your subbed left back? hes a very good player, good tackler and passer of the ball

He seems ok, I have read that he dosen't become any good. I'm not 100% that is true. I was thinking of loaning him out and see if he does well.

Pre Season

Had fairly good friendly results including a 3-0 win over Porto. All looks good for the season to come!

Chelsea vs. Wigan

Line Up:

GK - Cech
DEF - Cole, Luiz, Terry, Bosingwa
Mid - Mikel, Ramires, Lampard
ATT - Mata, Lavezzi, Torres

(Mikel CDM Mata AMC)

Full time score Chelsea 3-0 Wigan Lavezzi, Mata, Luiz

MOTM: David Luiz 8.70



Manager Comments:

Complete domination! They did not have a shot all game! Fair enough its Wigan, but still a great performace from us! Very convincing.

Champions Cup Group & League Cup 3rd Round Draw


Group G:

Chelsea
Shakhtar
Lille
Dortmund

League Cup 3rd round I will be playing Stoke.


The group seems fairly difficult and will I try to feature some youth players in the League Cup.

Chelsea vs. Arsenal

Line Up:

GK - Cech
DEF - Cole, Luiz, Terry, Bosingwa
MID - Mikel, Ramires, Lampard
ATT - Mata, Lavezzi, Torres

So I made no changes to the team. Because of the likes of Essien and Drogba being injured.

Full time score 3-0 Mata, Lavezzi, Torres.

MOTM Ramires 8.60

Subs:

OFFS: Lampard and Lavezzi

ONS: Meireles and Lukaku



Manager Comments:

Another dominate win where the oppenent had no shots! Starting very well I have to say.

Dortmund Vs. Chelsea

Line Up:

GK - Cech
DEF - Contento, Luiz, Terry, Ivanovic
MID - Mikel, Ramires, Lampard
ATT - Mata, Lavezzi, Drogba
SUBS - Turnbull, Alex, Meireles, Malouda, Sturridge, Kalou, Drogba

Info: So Cole will be injured for 7 weeks - 2 monthes. And Drogba is back so I thought he should play.

Subs Used:

OFFS: Lampard, Drogba

ONS: Meireles, Torres

MOTM: Ivanovic

Fulltime Score: 0-1 Mata

Manager Comments:

A very late goal from Mata got us a win at Dortmund. Was not a great performace from us today.

Stoke Vs. Chelsea League Cup 3rd Round

Line Up:

GK - Cech
DEF - Contento, Luiz, Terry, Ivanovic
MID - Meireles, Romeu, Mata
ATT - Kalou, Lukaku, Lavezzi

Info: So its the start of the League Cup so I thought I would play a different formation 4-2-3-1 and some youth players. Also, some other players who haven't had a chance yet.

Everything in the image.



Manager Comments:

Terrible performace, probably won't play that formation for a while. Or not play the weaker/younger players. Very dissapointed to go out early on.

September Update

Fixtures:

Blackburn (A) 0-1 W
Dortmund (A) 0-1 W
West brom (H) 1-0 W
Stoke (A) p1-1 L (League Cup)
QPR (A) 0-0 D
Lille (H) 2-1 W (European Champions Cup

Manager Comments

Good results in the Champions cup, dissapointed about the League cup though. Some wins in the Premier League but only a draw against QPR was very poor.
