Chelsea Build Up

Are you talking about Reece? You've spelled it wrong

That's it, I'm vetoing your new band.

Fair comment.

[Reece]

I couldn't be so harsh to Reece, he's a good egg. Especially his editing of thread titles.

You give me undue credit on this occasion for it was not me.

[wiw]

i really hope the plastics get at least a draw tonight..keeping their hopes alive for next week.

There's no way he'll field his strongest team at Anfield on Sunday then.

( Having typed the above, i now feel dirty... Of course, i hope Atlético go through - that goes without saying !! )

Matic is cuptied, Hazard possibly injured and Ivanovic suspended, so you'd have to expect them to start against us. Hazard is obviously the big one - he won them the game at Stamford Bridge and he's the only player in their team who genuinely worries me a bit.

However in saying that I think the atmosphere will be too much for them. It was incredible against City and we hate Chelsea way way more It's going to be deafening

[wiw]

Why didn't Cech play against Sunderland?

He was ill

[RedReet]

He was ill

I take it all back then.

I was *sure* thread titles was your bag. Who bet you to the punch? Alex?

I'd give my eye teeth to be there on Sunday...it will be unreal.

Still, i guess i'll have to settle for bagging a ticket for the coronation game against the Barcodes

Haha. I love to see us passing it around at the back but there were times in the Norwich game when I was anxious and screaming "JUST ****IN LAUNCH IT FOR ****S SAKE!"

Coming over all Hodgson. Embarrassing. That's the pressure of a title race for you

Our passing along the back yesterday was dire.

i panic most when it goes back to mignolet

he looks really unsure of himself with the ball at his feet - plus he's reluctanct to launch it, which isn't helped by the fact that despite giving it his all he seems incapable of anything other than a bit of floated chip no further than the half way line

[I, Ravel Morrison]

Don't think any mind games Mourinho attempts now will be of any advantage. In fact, might even worsen the situation for the visiting team. He already made a big rod on his back with his snidey post-match comments. Can't see the ref doing them any favours during the match.

He's no Valdes that's for sure

I think we should stick with him though. It's easy to focus on his **** ups but he made a massive contribution towards us beating City.

[RedReet]

Too ambiguous Mudds, must try harder.

[BigChief]

So with the players not eligble tonight here is the potential Chelsea lineup against us:

Cech
Ivanovich Cahill Terry Azpi
Matic Ramires (probably no ban)
Salah Oscar Schurle
Torres (or Ba)

That's pretty much a first team. The only thing we have to hope for is the atmosphere gets to their players. Plus minds geared toward the second CL leg. They may not risk Hazard against us, makes no sense now that City are effectively second favourites to win the league.

- totally agree we should stick with him

he's got great potential

i think the issue is - we're at the business end of possibly our greatest ever season and everyone is nervous and feeling tension/pressure and any error is amplified 100x

thats why i am confident that next season we'll see big improvements in the defence/keeper.
