SBN Chelsea Perspective: We Ain't Got No History
Here we go.
Lineup: Fabianski, Sagna, Koscielny, Djourou, Clichy, Wilshere, Song, Fabregas, Nasri, Walcott, Van Persie.
Chelsea: Cech, Ferreira, Ivanovic, Terry, Cole, Essien, Mikel, Lampard, Kalou, Drogba, Malouda. Subs: Turnbull, Ramires, Bosingwa, Van Aanholt, Bruma, Kakuta, McEachran.
Or, as The Backwards Gooner puts it on twitter: "Very pleased with starting XI. Walcott can help stop Cole's influence, Nasri will defend better than AA. Djourou adds more physical presence."
