We can't lose this, we just can't! So important! Hope we steam roll them like the fa cup semi.

I'm not sure Lamps will be starying, considering what kind of pacewhores they are

Chelsea will go through the motions as will Spuds in the first half, neither wanting to concede then it should get better in the second half. I'm not worried about this one, AVB is under a lot of pressure to show up his former employers but they just don't have the firepower nor the defense to deal with Chelsea. I see it as a comfortable 2-0 victory with Mata scoring and an injury time goal by Torres.

Logically analyzing the two teams, venue, etc., it seems we should definitely get something from this match. However, I have a deep sense of foreboding about this one. My prediction is the shit from the lane take all 3 pts. Oh how I'd love to be wrong about this...

Even if we loose we have a way better goal difference. It will still be in our hands - win against Villa and Everton and we are in the top 4. I know, it will be hard though..

At the same time both Gunners and Spurs will face teams fighting to avoid relegation so it's not easy wins for them either.

Beat them would be great, but even sweeter shoving it down the throat of AVB.

[Jase 43,479]

Looks like Dembele won't play tonight, if this is his account..

What do you have against him? He's always been a classy guy, respectful and done nothing wrong to Chelsea.

NO DEMBELE!!!!!!!!

Now just hope for Bale to take a wrong step on the way to the game and sprain his ankle

Personally I didn't like some of his comments where he seemed to take a bit of credit for our success last season, suggesting that we were in the competitions when he left so he must've been doing something right.

He conveniently forgets we were 3-1 down after the first leg against Napoli and had to play a replay in the FA Cup.

So for this reason you show such hate against him?

I dont get it. I really dont. I think he is a humble man. He got the job, he wasnt able to conquer the dressing room and he left us. I have no hard feelings towards him at all. He did his best, but I think we have too big of a personalities for him to handle.
