Is it counted?

People here said that Gerrard is a yellow card away from a 2 games suspension, but he only has 7 so... why?

One word about this game - lol. Its going to be hilarious if we win the league (and we can).

This could be such massive 8 days: 22 Atletico 27 Liverpool 30 Atletico

in order of who we need to get imo: Gundogan, Kroos, Pjanic, Moutinho, Ander Herrera. We need a ball distributor, a playmaker, those are the only one's that maybe we could buy. If we cant get any of them, i would just go for the other best CMs.. Pogba, Vidal, Witsel, Gustavo, Fernando, depends on who would be in the market.

I'd say Matic, Ramires, Luiz, Chalobah/MVG + a new CM are enough. Another interesting issue are the CB and FB spots, for the CB i think Terry, Cahill, Luiz, Zouma probably. For the full backs i'd say Shaw/X, Azpi, Ivan, Ake (?). Btw Vidal although he's a great CM is definitely not the one we need. Theres a big difference between him and Kross, Gundogan, he's not a playmaker by any means. We should really go for Kross when Gundogan wont play for a couple of two more months. If not Kross, probably Pjanic.

Im still not fully aware that we're two games away from another CL final, its like it all happend too fast. I realy didnt expect a CL final this season, it could be hugh.

I read Klopp said Gundogan will not be ready for the WC. I guess he wont move in the summer.

Di Marzio: The clubs had already agreed on what to do regardless of UEFA’s ruling. Should Courtois play against them, Chelsea would no longer want to renew the player’s loan to Atletico for next season".

Di Marzio: "According to some indiscretions however the clubs had already agreed on what to do regardless of UEFA’s ruling. Should Courtois play against them, Chelsea would no longer want to renew the player’s loan to Atletico for next season". That from six hours ago btw, so maybe someone posted it already.

I think its 50-50, better than drawing Real or Bayern, which in both away games against them i could have saw us losing 3-0, 3-1 or something like that. Atletico are similar to us, its not always easy for them to score goals and they are dangerous mostly on the counter. We'll sit very deep to get a 0-0 and i think we could with the defense we have all season.

Sympathy you say? that ship has sailed long ago..

Did Rakitic ever played in a pivot midfield?

I think Willian is better than Oscar in the #10 role (going forword) becuase he's more creative and have better ball control and passing, and Oscar should be more decisive and sharp than Willian in RW. Mourinho should sort it out and come with the right solution for those two. From the first time i watched Willian i thought he could be a perfect #10 and he showed it.

I just want this game to start. I dont care if we'll make it or not, i just want the team to go at them like animals and do everything they can. I want to remember this as another big european night. If we'll come short.. sad, but at least it'll make our schedule nicer for a last run for the title.

Liverpool does get A LOT of penalties and its annoying. Though they do play the quickest game in the box and they have very quick players in attack (like Suarez off course) so it make sense they'll get the most penalties. They got to win against City, if that happens and we some how win an away game at Swansea, we're totally back in the race. If we wont win the league, my biggest comfort will be that Liverpool or City couldnt win it too. I just hate them both. I mean I prefer City to win it but if they dont it will be kind of great, and maybe important for their confidence for next seasons. I mean idealy they should have won last season and this season.

Off course it's a joke, I just don't think players should speak this way.

What's with those comments on canal plus? http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/chelsea-transfer-news-eden-hazard-3377029 I don't like it. Not showing a lot of commitment and it's his only 2nd season here.

Official: Cech; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Azpilicueta; Matic, Lampard; Willian, Schurrle, Salah; Torres subs: Schwarzer, Kalas, Cole, David Luiz, Oscar, Hazard, Ba.

We are so stupid if Courtois wont return next season.

Sorry to say that but Cech -> Out. Shocking again from him, we concede too many from his mistakes this season. We have Cortuois who is by far the better GK.

Great post, I agree with most. But what would it say about our season if Liverpool will win the title? They finished 7th last season, they spend much less money and have a lesser squad. I think it won't look good for us and for City if Liverpool wins it. It would look like we failed to create that gap between teams that spend so much, and a team that doesn't. A lot of credit goes to Liverpool and what they did, but still.

Lets say City loses to Liverpool, we than need them to lose 2 more points in their final 6 games. I dont think they'll win all of those games (it includes Everton away, Palace away). Still possible.
