I'd keep the same team but put Anderson in the middle and try Perez on the left if Arnie isnt available.
I think Anderson is better in the middle anyway as we saw at Arsenal I think. We could also see how much work Perez is prepared to put in by putting him on the left and see if tracks back to help masuaku.
The thing with teams like Chelsea is that if you sit back they will kill you eventually. They like to play so its far better to attack them as they will leave holes as they naturally push up.
I'd even think of playing Fredricks to get that width in. I'd just all out attack them, why not?

Riddle - Ogbonna offers nothing going forward and is too slow to be a full-back. It's a myth that Masuaku can't defend - he is much improved this season.

Yes, Ogbonna in for Masuaku (who like Cresswell can't defend). No reason why it won't help. Zab was brought back for the same reason for Fredericks and it is an improvement defensively. Let's face it we will be doing most of the defending v Chelsea and other top six teams. Bilic bought Oggy because he was left footed and he has played left back before. Save Fredericks and Masuaku/Cresswell for teams that we will be dominating.

Is there anything we can do to tighten up the defence.
Chelsea as an attacking force scare the fuck out of me

Was thinking more or less the same if Arnie's not fit. Antonio is fucking rubbish. Yarmolenko is the closest in style to the Austrian. Him up front and Snodgrass on the right. At least you know the Jocko will put in a shift. Let's just hope he's fit.

Or maybe Yarmolenko or Anderson could play Arnie's position, and one of Perez, Antonio or Snodgrass (actually Snodgrass would be my choice) comes in at one of the wide positions.

Same XI if possible. If it ain't broke then don;t fix it, and they looked like by far the best team we've put out this season.
Looks like we're going to be a team who can be effective on the break (and hopefully Pellegrini has noted this and will try to set us up this way- especially against teams who won;t be sitting back against us)
If Arnie is out, then Hernandez if he's fit, and then Antonio if he's not.

I agree regards to Fredericks i think he's been dealt a harsh start considering he works best with a more threatening winger in front of him like Yarmo and has instead been paired with Snodgrass and the lacklustre Antonio where one has the brain but no pace and the other has the pace but no brain.

only change id be half tempted to make might be fredericks for ZAB as I think we could use the extra pace against Hazard. No need to mess with anything else after yesterday

Same team. Cresswell can get fucked, he’s as pointless and pony as that prick Snodgrass.

Keep it together! Same as Everton, so we dont rock the boat when we are trying to get it steady. If Arnie is not fit, which he wont be knowing our luck, I would put in Antonio.
In defence we had Zab start and he offered a cool head and some defending which took some pressure off the central defence. We need to have the central defence gel together a bit more, before Fredericks is allowed back in. Zab is the cool head with vast experience against top players and we need that VS Chelsea.

Masuaku and Anderson could be a real FORCE on the left hand side, they will give so many teams gip.. just don’t attack us down that side.

We don’t have proper cover for Arnie do we, considering he is so pivotal to our game.

Perez career is already over with us, so it has to be Antonio as there are no alternatives.
Don't fancy this as they're on form and though a good win at Goodison yesterday, Chelsea are a significant step up.
I hate this mob more that the front wheels so I would love a result over this mob.

I agree with Diehardhammer... swap Fredericks in for Zaba just for his pace for this match.
