Wide spread reports stating that Bertrand is likely to start at LW.

Not sure how true is this myself but you can decide on your own.

IF that is true, then Bayern will have no CBs for the final!

Or maybe, get Craig Gordon to be our No.2, Blackman as 3rd choice and put Hilario & Turnbull in the reserves!

In French.. Google translated it... TBH, as much as I want him here, I'm not quite sure he wants to come here, even if we win the CL. He's been talking up Manchester for awhile now!

Craig Gordon has just been released by Sunderland. Maybe we should go get him as backup and sell Turnbull off!

Oh come on!!

If we win, then yes. If not, then who cares?!! On a serious note, don't think it's gotta do much with winning the Community Shield, but more so of the team that we're facing, the rivalry between the two teams. If we come up against United, Liverpool or Spurs, then I certainly do not want us to lose the game!

Just less than 13 hours to go! Really beginning to freak out!! Might even pass out when the match comes about!!!

Not exactly feeling 100% confident about this game but they said the same thing about Barcelona's attack when we played them. They had the supposed greatest player of all time in their team and still couldn't score against us. Only difference I see with Bayern's attack is that they play with wingers and certainly are not shy to cross the ball if needed, which is gonna give us different problems compared to the narrow attacks of Barcelona.

Taken from Twitter and not sure how true is this...

From our second home to a major bogey ground. Great!

In the midst of all this CL buildup, there is the Coppa Italia final on Sunday between Juventus and Napoli. Should be a good game.

24 hours!!!

Not sure. Tried to watch it but stream was lagging horribly that day. Heard about the move from Twitter.

RDM tested that out a for awhile against Blackburn. Think it's a good possibility of that happening.

Am hoping Luiz can contain his enthusiasm tomorrow, stay concentrated and keep his discipline in the game. Need everybody at their tip-top form.

Guess you're not a fan of stats then...

1. Bayern Munich have won 32 of 33 games in all competitions this season when they have scored first season (P9 W8 D1 in UCL). 2. Only Napoli have managed to get a result against Bayern Munich after they scored first as they drew 1-1 at San Paolo in CL this season. 3. Chelsea have won 30 of 41 games when they have opened the scoring first in games this season in all competitions (P11 W7 D2 L2 in UCL). 4. Bayern Munich have only come from behind to win 3 of 15 games in which they have conceded first in all competitions this season. 5. In the Champions League though, Bayern Munich have lost all 3 games - vs Man City, Basel & Real Madrid - when they have conceded first. 6. Chelsea have conceded most of their CL goals this season in the second half - 7 - with 6 of them coming in the last 30mins of matches 7. Chelsea's 24 goals in the CL this season have been equally scored in both halves(12-12). The most(6) have come in the 16-30th minute. 8. Bayern Munich have conceded 10 goals in Champions League this season and are also equally divided in both halves(5-5). 9. Six of those goals have come in around the half-time with 3 conceded in the 15mins before HT & another 3 conceded in the 15mins after HT.

Ooops. Sorry.

Do we have a choice?? We are down to bare bones a bit here.

Cahill & Luiz have trained all week and RDM is very hopeful on them. Malouda will join training later. Chalobah & Kane have traveled with the squad as back-ups IF any of the senior figures drop out from the first 18.

A wheeler dealer must have been rubbing his hand gleefully when that news broke out.
