Jase 43,479 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Torres should start for this game so that Drogba can start against Barcelona.I would do the other way round mainly because Drogba has a good record at Wembley in the FA Cup. 5 goals in 5 FA Cup appearances there.

He seems up for it every time, well at least judging by the past matches we had there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF he doesn't, the team will basically be playing with 10 men as he does nothing but stroll around the pitch and make friends with the opposition players!

Otherwise, we won't have much of a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the champions league semi-final...don't think Drogba will snooze through this one if he's selected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strike 7,489 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 You think you know Chelsea and Tottenham history? Here's a quiz to test it:http://www.westlondo...tottenham-quiz/I only got 5/10 4/10 and a picture of King Kalou. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 This is the problem with not having a Very good CF...Instead of picking between Torres and Drogba over who'll be better, we're picking which one will be less shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strike 7,489 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Don't know what's so hard about supporting your team(regardless whether they turn up or not). Chelsea is Chelsea! Fuck you idiots who expect a win every game! Open a thread challenging me, and I will own you, know why? Because no one performs perfect every time!Get used to supporting a team that doesn't perform %100 all the time!Those who want to win everytime ,Go Support Barcelona. But I am sure being a Chelsea fan is a hell of a lot better than being a Barca fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran. 6,317 Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 Wouldn't be so sure about that one IMO.I'm quite sure he'll turn up; Drogba's performed very, very well in the big CL games this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedsBlue 1,549 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 If anyone doubts Drogba's commitment or ability,just remember that we are playing Barcelona partly because of him.Check the Napoli 2nd leg highlights,if you've forgotten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Go get a Barshitlona shirt if you want to win everything! Be part of the mass. I will support Chelsea, Valencia, and BocaJrs no matter what. Go fuck yourself if the semi-finals of the ucl don't matter to you!Calm down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
