From Radio City

Good one Rafa. Didn't think he would have the balls to shove SG out on the right.

[tomasjj]

Ah.. SG on the right, me like it!
And Mascher is there too. Good.
Momo will destroy.

A bit worried about the lack of creativity though.
Hopefully we will be able to retain the ball.

Are Torres and Alonso on the bench?

[Lee]

That'll do

[Dan]

That isn't the worst possible team to be putting out now. Hopefully stevie puts a bit of effort in today

Did you ever doubt if Rafa has the big cojones?

Yossi to score first

Is Torres and Alonso on the bench?

Hopefully Momo redeems himself with his troubles of late. I have confidence in the lad. Where's Pennant btw ? I think he picked up an injury last time around isn't it ?

[Pablo]

Very battling team out there, not surprising for a derby I suppose.

I am worried about where the goals will come from though.

Did you ever doubt if Rafa has the big cojones?

I did. This is a slap in the face to SG and I thought Rafa would be concerned about damaging SG's fragile state of mind.

[Craig_H]

Just found it

Itandje, Crouch, Pennant, Babel, Lucas.

Not fit enough to make the bench either
