Chelsea build up

Howard Webb in charge FFS.

We can beat them, just need to keep on playing like we did against Spurs, Cardiff and Man City.

[Chris]

Hate these cunts, that scumbag Mourinho will no doubt try and make it a turgid, bitty game.

Hopefully we can muster up something special again so soon after City.

When is it Shagster?

Must get something from this game

Must get something from this game

I think we'll win this. We've been a much better team than Chelsea this season.

[Cormack74]

I'm not generally one for optimism but I get the feeling that Maureen will be ****ting his Armani pants having seen how we've performed in our last 2 away games.

I honestly think he'll set up even more defensively than usual.

[Chazza]

Ramires suspended for them.

[Shaggy]

Absolutely right that Mourinho will try to turn this into a war and spoil it. He hates football. Suarez will run Terry ragged.

[john316]

I assume Lampturd will start for the suspended Ramires on Sunday so with him/Mikel/Oscar, we can really get after that trio and dominate possession again. Bit concerned that they'll defend really deep Chelsea which might cause us an issue trying to break them down. Stevie G would have been great for this game as we might need shots from outside the box to break the deadlock. Allen/Hendo/Lucas offer us nothing shooting from 25/30 yards out so forces that extra pass at times.

Cannot afford to lose this game though and I'd ****ing love it if its us who end Jo-say's home record at Stamford Bridge.

[Sarb]

I dont think this a must not lose for us. We will still be in touch with top spot, certainly top 4, even if we lose. Need to make sure we beat Hull at home

Thanks C.

[Norbs]

I think we'll win this. We've been a much better team than Chelsea this season.

We've played better football but they shade us for organisation. I think it'll be tough, it depends on whether Mourinho fancies his luck after our tough schedule.

I hope Torres doesn't play

[PTP]

Massive game, but if we perform to the levels we did against city we can beat these. That said I'd take a point now and get this tough Xmas period done and dusted with us in the top 4 and no more than 5 pts of top spot
