Closed Man United v Chelsea

[Hutcho 8,443]

All out attack?

I think we are more in danger of being too defensive than too offensive...

Rafa doesn't have "overload" in his tactics book.

I think people are focusing too much on Thursday's game. It's inexcusable that we went into that game with such a shitty attitude but we clearly did and I doubt that'll be the same one on display tomorrow.

Which is why I'm thinking we can win this. I'm going 1-0 to the Blues. A defiant defensive performance and a goal on the break or from a set-piece.

Theres no way we can be as bad as thursday because man u will cause us to be better and put the effort in. They wern't particularly great and we never really kicked up gears because we were never under that much pressre. Other than the penalty, we didn't look like conceding and it looked like a game in the park... At old trafford with the atmosphere and man u really going for it we will have to up tempo, and the big game mentality should ensure we don't have to endure a shitty attitude...

What are the odds rafa "rests" JT vs Man u, and plays Cahill luiz...

Won't be surprised TBH. Playing Terry may work against us in terms of when we have to deal with United's pace. Terry won't have the legs to deal with it. On the other hand, his experience could be vital.

And heck, don't be surprised if he starts Torres ahead of Ba too!

I would honestly have JT's pace problems over Cahill and Luiz' defensive problems every single day of the week. Even for his organisational and motivational skills i would play him.

And if he starts torres over Ba then i feel bad for rafa, because he is clearly clinically insane.

Hi there, a Man City fan here in peace. I'm really astonished by the pessimism of Chelsea fans. At the start of the season I was so happy for Chelsea doing well and I was hoping you carry on all the way to win the league as I knew City won't because of the lack of decent reinforcement during the summer window. But I would like to say is that the red scum are not invincible if you get at them and I know Chelsea can get the game at them. But the fans should support the team, as you know at Old trafford there is silence as in a cathedral. Utd fans support their team only when they score, then you must keep the volume high and good luck and hopefully see you in the final.

[Hutcho 8,443]

I am thinking that we will see JT and Lamos lead the team to victory... Van persie to score for them early... JT headed equlizer, and then a 90th min Lampy screamer to win it...

I can dream can't i...

4 matches with webb vs manchester united , no victory ... Tomorrow is the Day

Hay and welcome. Thanks for the support.

We all thought that we'd go all the way at the start of the season, but our thin squad coupled with the amount of games we've played have made this very hard. Not to mention the two reds who are involved in our squad.

Our last few run of results have left us questioning where we stand in these compitions. Deep down we know we can beat them if everything goes to plan, but nothing ever goes to plan. Also it's gonna be 12 against 11.

Just hope we can put in half the performance city did last season at old Trafford! Good luck with the semis!

[Santiago. 1,500]

Lots of optimism.

I personally think this current side doesnt have a chance and Hopefully the post match thread doesn't go overboard if we do lose

[dblade28 0]

Manchester United and STEAUA will destroy chelsea, bye bye the blues

P.S. Torres is the best ))

whatever nutterhead decided to go into the season with only 1 (Torres) as our senior striker, probably cost us a title challenge.if city/united play poorly, Aguero/Dzeko/RVP would bail them out. when we play poorly, we drop points. now with Ba we are slightly better but then again, playing twice a week since January is not helping. the squad is simply tired

If you read from the start of the thread, the pessimism outweighs the optimism by far.

And? The mere fact that some actually think we can go and get a result against a side (that the best attack in the world ((Madrid)) could barley manage without a sending off) who have had more days rest, pissed off as fuck, and with a squad that has been nothing more than mediocre this entire season due to management and squad mentality, is very wishful thinking.

I will support them till the end and hopefully some fucking miracle happens to our players and put out the performance of the season (Highly unlikely under Benitez), but my expectations are nothing more than a 2 goal margin defeat.
