Chelsea Vs. Norwich City: Game Thread/Lineups

Chelsea (4<4>2): Henrique Hilario; Ashley Cole, John Terry, Branislav Ivanovic, Jose Bosingwa; John Obi Mikel, Frank Lampard, Ramires, Florent Malouda; Fernando Torres, Didier Drogba.

Substitutes: Ross Turnbull, Juan Mata, Romelu Lukaku, Paulo Ferreira, Josh McEachran, Alex, Nicolas Anelka.

Norwich City (4-4-1-1): John Ruddy; Kyle Naughton, Zak Whitbread, Leon Barnett, Ritchie De Laet; Andrew Crofts, Bradley Johnson, Wes Hoolahan, Marc Tierney; Chris Martin; Grant Holt.

Substitutes: Declan Rudd, Russell Martin, Elliot Bennett, Anthony Pilkington, David Fox, Simeon Jackson, Steve Morison.

Drogba and Torres start together in a 4-4-2 diamond. One of Malouda and Lampard is playing point, but I have no idea which one, while Salomon Kalou and Yossi Benayoun appear to have vanished into the ether. Romelu Lukaku and Juan Mata could make their debuts today what with the hanging out on the bench business. Hopefully this'll be a good game in which to blood them.

And I guess Leon Barnett isn't suspended. Whoops.
