Piling on the pressure now, but still being wasteful.
Schurrle needs to be moved to the left.

Yes, that's my thoughts exactly.
Still we've equalised, so no worries.

Just having someone who knows what that big rectangular thing with a net attached is for has been welcome change.

Ramires on for us (schurrle off)
Not sure what the formation will be - ram on the right or in the middle?
Edit: Oscar on the right, ram in the middle and cesc pushed up.
I guess we will see oscar off for willian on 69 minutes.
Great stuff. I feel guilty now about having any doubts about Costa. He must be the most natural goalscorer we've had since JImmy Floyd, all that's on his mind when he runs on is finding the back of that net.

I liked Torres, was sad (but understood that he had to go), but Costa is doing what Torres could never do.
I have no doubt that we would have lost this game last season.
Lets hope Remy gets a goal in the next 20 minutes - that would be a great day for us.

I stood up.

Yes, I still have to keep reminding myself that Costa is still only 25 ! He's probably not even reached his peak yet. Fantastic signing.

He could be our 1st choice striker for the next 7 years.
Courtois 22
Cahill 28
Zouma 19
Terry 33
Luis 29
Azpi 25
Brana 30
Matic 26
Mikkel 27
Ramires 27
Cesc 27
Oscar 23
Willian 26
Schurrle 23
Salah 22
Hazard 23
Costa 25
Remy 27
We seem to have a good mix of very talented young players, players in their prime at 27, and some ageing defenders.
I guess our next task is to replace Terry.

You're on fire today. Have you done the lottery ?
