Kuyt and bellamy must start.......

[kop-al-74]

I really hope for the first time this season he keeps the same forwards for 2 games in a row.I really believe our best 2 up front is these two who seemed to link up very well every time they have played together.With crouch on the bench,he gives us the option to really change things depending on how the game pans out.

I really hope he doesn't go into the game with 1 upfront as i think he proberbly will.

[Helios Creed]

They actually look dangerous, which we haven't had up front for years.

Terry and Carvalho hate playing against Crouch. I'm sure Crouch will start today

I was just about to say the same thing. Crouch causes Terry in particular more problems than any other striker in the league, in my opinion. Obviously he scored against them in Charity Shield and therefore I think he should start. Who with would be my dilemma. Kuyt deserves to start but I'm not convinced him & Crouch would make a decent partnership.

Nice to have these conundrums for a change though.

Chris Kamara has just said on Goals on Sunday that he was with the squad in the hotel last night and all he knows is that there's no Fowler or Garcia as they weren't there.

Crouch and Kuyt for me. The best attacking line up for me.

I'll acknowledge that this wasn't the case at the start of the season.

I'd be very surprised if Garcia doesn't play some Role. He's caused Chelski lots of problems in the Past

so Crouch to start on his own then

I feel these conundrums are ironically in danger of ruining our season. There can be a thing as too many possibilities and, i'm worried my worst fears are starting to be realised.

No team with such an unsettled line up has ever won the EPL. Prove me wrong by all means.

They are too similar for me. I'd prefer Bellamy with either. He's the pace we need up front.

kamara is a tool he said to alan smith "theres no way they can win is there" and that we get battered every time we play there

Kuyt does granted! Nailed on to start surely to gawd.

Of Bellamy i'm not so sure. Against PSV he played like a schoolboy. Rather than letting the ball go past him and run on to it he stopped it every time! Every pacy striker should run on to these balls rather than hold it up. In this game it just gave the defence time to regroup rather than allow us to get into an attacking position, because wait for it... they were all quicker than us bar Bellamy

It's early days for being too critical, but bellers need a lot of coaching in my opinion to integrate him into the team.

[Shaggy]

I've been totally underwhelmed by Bellamy so far and his was a very frustrating display at PSV.

I hear what your saying, and this was my first thought when we signed Kuyt. However as the season develops my opinion has changed.

This alternative gives us a battering ram which will give their CBs a torrid time. And allows for nippy wingers to support and develop the second ball.

Perfect attacking strategy for Chelsea - granted it wont be pretty!

[SouthAfricaRed]

Crouch and Bellamy looked very Good against West Ham and Kuijt was dynamite coming on as a Sub. I'd do the same today against Chelski

i think if we had the pace of Bellamy against neverton,it would of been a whole different game.
