Closed Chelsea v Basel

[Magic Lamps 11,655]

If out big guns play more than 60 mins, we can write off Sundays match n focus on Tottenham.

I think even a B-team could secure a point at OT. Never had a team less to play for than Utd these days. We surely can hold out a 0-0 or 1-1 with another luck goal from Ba.

Great, no Mikel!

Don't like it that Luiz and Ramires have to play this one. And it's their 10th consecutive start! Hope we can kill the tie off early and take them off ahead of 2 massive upcoming games.

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,919]

Oh, you think Israel is better?.. Think again.

Better weather at least

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,919]

I cant believe he has Ramires back out there again. Lad gets no rest.

Ramires must have one of these in his stomach:

Depends on the ref.......

Fuck off Benitez! how can u start Luiz and Rami?

[Keikoismad 162]

I understand we need to rest players, I really do. But in a certain sense, I'm glad that some of our key players are starting. Basel is of course not Chelsea, but still they won

against Tottenham and we'd better take no unnecessary risks.

Although, of course, when we're comfortably up front at half-time, take some players of and let them rest for the next crucial matches.

Go Chelsea!

3-1 Chelsea

Maybe.. although we are burning in hell in the summer. But I guess it is better than the gloomy sky and the rain and cold ..

Whats less good, is the fact that the countries around us want to take our lives.

Plus its not like the economy or anything is that good/...

+1

It's Howard Webb...

[Bir_CFC 3,455]

Ramires must have one of these in his stomach:

Except his also gets world class mileage, really nothing else like it elsewhere.

[Mário César 975]

stream?

[Laylabelle 9,359]

It's Howard Webb...

Then getting a result probably wont be easy lol..joy!

Hey ho lets get through tonight....eek!Weird to think last season had that mental leg against Barca and somehow made it with 10....though saying that we've made Europa bloody hard for ourselves!No easy games and all that like its made out to be

[Tiwaz 539]

It's Howard Webb...

I genuinely hope you're joking?

[Rmpr 8,977]

My feet are ready!

Socks? We dont wear that (I wont call it shit because I absolutely loved them) in Brazil!

I genuinely hope you're joking?

Unfortunately not:

@premierleague: Howard Webb has been appointed referee for Manchester United v Chelsea on 05/05/13. #MUNCHE #BPL

Oh well, at least it's not Chris Foy.

[Martina 210]

Isn't it the Swedish multi-millionaire referee Jonas Eriksson?

[Laylabelle 9,359]

Or Friend...but still...the less bad out of a bad lot!
