Why are the Corinthians fans shaking their fingers? I don't think that makes noise.

Torres is having to come wide and drop deep again to get the ball unlike his more recent games. Just like last season... when we used this double pivot.

Just fuck off Ramires. Why would you just give them a fucking throw-in deep near their GK when we finally have a decent spell of possession.

Cole >>> Messi

Oh look. Someone in the DOUBLE PIVOT area making an accurate pass TO THE WING. That player? DAVID LUIZ. Ramires is just awful. Not making any good passes and now a dangerous tackle which could've got us an early card.

OVER THE LINE! OVER THE LINE!

Picking the exact double pivot which caused us so many problems last season is already looking like an idiotic move.

My very first words at around 4seconds in - "Oh no, don't boot it away..." and what does he do.

Robbie Savage makes me wish I was born deaf.

This is our 11th cup final in 8 years. Not bad.

Scared our midfield is going to get overrun and Paulinho will somehow have the same of his life. I just hope Ramires doesn't go forward too much. I've missed Lampard's asscheeks. They're quite good. Not as good is Ivanovic's, but good.

Arghhh. Too many changes in the team for this game for my liking. Likely all down to Azpi's poor performance, meaning Ivanovic has to replace him at right back, leaving no one else but Luiz to move in beside Cahill. Kinda sad for Oscar. Being from Brazil I assume this would've been one of the best moments of his life had he started (and won!)

I have to say - I've noticed allot more Brazilian posters on here since we all found out we'd be (potentially at the time) facing Corinthians. Was there this many before? Have I only just started to notice something which has been here a while? Anyway, I like it

When I @ or 'tag' someone, their username comes up in blue. Was it like this before? Is my memory bad? I'm sure it was just in plain black before. Anyway, point is, I love it being in blue. A very nice touch if that's new!

Oh yeah. Llorente will be available for free next summer. LETS GET HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He seems humble. I'm sure he'd accept not being 'the star' in our team if he was to ever get benched.

@Rmpr, Whenever Brazilian teams are talked about on here, I've learned to trust the people who are actually Brazilian, so to me it seems like you're talking sense! I also agree about Oscar being dropped. It'd be a shame for him as I'm sure he'd just love to win this cup on a personal note, but the team does come first (although I'm sure we'd play just fine if he starts.)

We're incredibly likely to concede. We don't have the most prolific striker in the world. We simply must have our 3 maestros on top form if we want to win this IMO. Corinthians probably want this more (both the players and the fans) and will dominate the atmosphere. It'll be a tough game. Probably high scoring (around 4 goals). It's now looking too tight to call in my opinion after some research. No longer betting on this game!

Once he's gone, I want Manuel Pellegrini to come in. He's perfected the sort of 4-2-3-1 we want to play. He's making this weak (on paper) Malaga team play incredible football. He made Villarreal overachieve greatly. He. Is. Perfect.

Ronaldinho. (I'm watching videos of him. They're making me hard. I miss watching him play so much. It's sad that he'll probably retire soon! He's still rather decent. Would be great to see him join a team like Swansea City tbh.)

Really hope Reading get relegated. I find them incredibly boring and just don't feel like they 'belong' in the Premier League. Would like Middlesbrough or Nottingham Forest to come up and take their place next season.

The games I bet on (and won) ended over half an hour ago. William Hill still haven't given me my winnings. Frustrated. The moment I get them I think I'll put a cool £200.00 on us winning vs. Corinthians with a return of £360.00. Not bad.

FULHAM JUST WON ME £6GRAND ON A BTTS 7FOLD ACCUMULATOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fellaini is just an idiot tbh.

yay

Tiote is crap. Would be a decent rotation option at Arsenal IMO but that's the highest he can go.
