To say, we told you so Jose, would be folly considering the ridiculously high percentage of calls that Mr.Mourinho gets right.
But we rallied last week for the inclusion Loic Remy up top, which would give Diego Costa the chance to fully report that muscular injury.
Stoke proved to be a stern test for Chelsea but, of all the remaining games, we felt that this one was the best fixture to leave Costa out and give him the best possible chance to be fit for the run in.
The brilliant Spaniard my of course be fit for the big games anyway and let’s not pretend that this league title is anything but a foregone conclusion. 7 points clear, 7 games to go and a game in hand on their rivals. Chelsea have more than enough fire power to win this league even without Costa and we really like Loic Remy. He covers the ground like fellow Frenchman Thierry Henry is a brilliant finisher.
He will surely go into the side for a game which shouldn’t provide Chelsea with too many problems. Despite the injury to Costa, Chelsea still get forward beautifully and pin teams back onto their 18 yard like no other English side.
QPR have guts and will put up a fight but there is a gulf of class between these two and, in Eden Hazard, Chelsea have the perfect weapon to unlock the door several times.
So here is our line up for the game. Chelsea fans: let’s have your elevens.

I think you’ve got it right. Oscar must play a full 90min game. He will start maikng a impact he just needs more game time. Loic Remy is a great finisher unlike Diego Costa playing boxing with the rival team, Remy gets the job done. THE BLUES!
