Closed Man City v Chelsea

[BlueLion. 21,491]

If we perform in this match - I know it sounds strange - I'll be pretty pissed. Because that just stinks of arrogance; that we don't have to play properly apart from when we're playing the big teams. Disgusting attitude if that's the case.

Anyway - as for the game - I can't see us winning. Fancy City to win and by a comfortable margin of a couple of goals, in all truth. They have absolutely nothing to lose, have had a week off in preparation, are fucking brilliant at the Etihad and need to win to keep a semblance of pressure on United.

azpi - Ivan - Luiz - Cole

The problem is that Benitez is our manager.He will play Torres for sure :-(

OK maybe he can play upfront? I don't want to watch Mikel outnumbered in midfield while Lampard is standing next to Joe Hart.

Come again. upfront & Frankie ?

I see, many boys are very confident to see Chelsea winning today.

[Stingray 9,441]

Ok, officially nervous here .....

But I think we will pull of a win here if BA starts. Somehow i think our players will step up for this game ....

Go blues!!!

Yep. Time to stop masquerading as a midfielder and just play as a striker.

Are you sure we are talking about Frankie here ?

Race for the Champions League: Spurs, Chelsea, Arsenal, Everton and Liverpool in the hunt... but who will claim prized spots?

WHY THEY COULD MISS OUT...

The Spanish double-act of Rafael Benitez and Fernando Torres. When the latter is selected up front by the former, Chelsea are essentially playing with 10 men.

A match we simply must not lose at all cost.

------------ Cech-------

Ivan - Terry - Luiz - Cole

------ Mikel - Lamps --------

Oscar --- Mata --- Hazard

----------- Ba

However I have the feeling JT is going to be benched again. In that case I'd move Ivanovic to the centre and put Azpilicueta in his place.
