Team against Chelsea in the CC

[Nic83]

Anyone who says they're not disappointed with this line up or that They don't care about this cup are only lying to themselves. Or else they are not real supporters.

Make up your mind Al, are you unhappy with the players, formation, or both?!

Team is as strong as expected, although I must admit I expected a stronger bench. However, this is still a strong side reflecting where are squad has come

Chelsea at home's a big ask though....

[Nic83]

Hey Disco, that 6/5 looks ****ing fantastic now!

Indeed

However, back to this thread and the team is as expected. Needs everyone on top of their game.

[Nic83]

Anyone seen much of this Itanje?

I've seen a few games from Mikhilov fella and he looks the part from what I've seen. He's a young keeper of ours btw.

I'm always unhappy

I loath Chelsea and all they stand for and it's making me nervous not seeing our best players in the XI.

[Nic83]

Joe Cole's not playing, that's one plus point!

[Red_Al_77]

Cech, Belletti, Ben Haim, Carvalho, Bridge, Essien, Mikel, Lampard, Kalou, Shevchenko, Sinclair

Strong midfield for the chavs.

[mick the click]

It's certainly going to be...interesting...

[rage]

[rushscored4]

My team against Chelsea:

Itandje, Finnan (if fit) / Darby, Hobbs, Carragher (Captain), Aurelio, Babel, Lucas, Sissoko, Leto, Voronin, Crouch.

Subs: Martin, Darby / Arbeloa, Plessis, El Zhar (if fit) / Kewell, Nemeth

The Liverpool team in full is:

Itandje, Arbeloa, Aurelio, Hobbs, Carragher, Alonso, Lucas, Sissoko, Babel, Voronin, Crouch.

Subs: Martin, Hyypia, Riise, El Zhar, Benayoun.

Not a bad effort I suppose...

Aright, mate. Stick to the stadium stuff.
We'll handle the football.

[Johnny]

Because we still have holes in our starting XI and in our squad. We don't have enough high quality players all over the pitch and that will show up during a long season.

ManUre will play their best 6 every important game,
ArseNIL will continue to mix it up and take a chance in the domestic Cups but will be found wanting.
Chelsea will win NOTHING this yr.
We will qualify for the CL next yr and win a CUP like every other yr.
