I'd give Chelsea an early goal then defend it for 90 mins.
Hughton seems perfectly happy to park the bus for 90 against the top 6, lose 2-0 from set pieces and then heap praise on the quality of the opposition.

My worry is at the moment march looks nervous, knocky looks stressed and jose hasnt lived up to hus price tag
So i would play 3 centre halves with suttner and schelotto wide. 3 in midfield (propper, kayal and gross) with murray and baldock up front

Ryan: Bruno,Dunk, Duffy, Suttner: Kayal, Gross, Stephens, Izquierdo: Murray, Baldock. Play normal game. If losing after 70 mins replace Murray with Schelotto and Kayal with Knockaert. Tell Dunk and Duffy to play Route 1 to Schelotto, Izzy and Knocky to cross, S. to cause havoc!
I just have a slight inkling that Schelotto at centre forward might work! He can head the ball and he is utterly, totally unpredictable.
I'd love to see Chris try that, but I know he won't. It'll be same old same old and hope. Which is fine, for one season only. Next season, PL or Championship, I want to see us ATTACK.

What do you do? You give it a go. Chelsea, like Liverpool and Arsenal, have a soft underbelly if you put them on the back foot. They've been turned over by Burnley, Palace and West Ham this season. If we don't give it a go, it'll be another 2-0 reversal.

Not knowing where your first touch is going to go doesn't make you unpredictable...
I'm with Tom here.
We have shown the "big clubs" way too much respect.
It all started against Man City when their back 3/4 spent almost the entirety of the game on the halfway line and, as usual, we parked the bus. The quality sides will always find a way to score and then what happens when you have no plan B?
Let's go out, defend high and hassle the hell out of them. If we sit back and let them play there is only going to be one result. Let's be competitive and give it a real go. At least then we have the satisfaction of knowing that we tried to beat them....even if we don't.
Play 3-5-2

So, no tall target man [but Murray hasn't been bad] as it seems to limit our creativity [?!]. We still have height for attacking corners [Stephens, Dunk, Goldson, Uwe, Propper, Schellotto]. March to sub Izquierdo if it's not working. Simples!

I would print a list of players names, tell them the formation I want to play them in and leave it at that, doddle.

We can only play on one wing at a time, so we only need one winger at the start.
I would play the quicker players (vs Chelsea); Kayal for Knockaert, Baldock for Murray, and Hünemeier on the bench as well as Goldson.
I might even have Hünemeier starting in a five man defence. And I don't like five men defence but with playing Baldock up front means he cannot help out in defence.
