Closed Chelsea v Sunderland

[Laylabelle 9,346]

Cause they don't like to do favours..plus telly talks and all

Drop points here n Liverpool won't matter....biggie biggie

[Special Juan 27,419]

I can't understand why this game is not played today. We didn't have a midweek game and we play Atletico on Tuesday. Athletico play today. Why can't the FA give us an extra day rest when we are single handedly keeping the English European coefficient up?!

TV dollars, plus the fact they need to keep people like Redknapp and Alan Smith in a job.

I can see this being another win to nil if we defend well. I say this because i go onto Sunderland forums to get some insight for my weekly premier league predictions, and their fans almost always seem to mention that Sunderland have a hard time playing against teams that are difficult to break down. So for us to win this game it will depend on whether we can make the most of any chances that we get at the other end.

Yeah, if we have our shooting boots on today we can control the game. However, need to be wary of Sunderland after what they did to City (although city are tomtit when it comes to defending).

Sunderland played again City on Wednesday. Hardly fair on them.

Because I want Eto'o to start against Atletico Madrid at home and Ba to start against Atleti away (though a case can be made for Torres starting that) and Liverpool away (Torres will be shit in this game and Eto'o can't score away from Stamford Bridge).

Ba might have scored, but his movement and all round play against Swansea were disappointing and they generally are when he starts a game from the first minute. His physicality might be useful in away games, especially that Altetico one.

Eto'o should start to gain match fitness in anticipation of the Atletico home game. I'm sure Jose has it figured out anyway.

We will have to wait and see then. Mourinho will pick whoever is better for the cause.

[Special Juan 27,419]

We won't need Hazard here, a front three of Willian as the 10, Scurrle left and Salah right will do the job. Ba up top.

[YouNameIt 1,511]

Cech

Azpi - Cahill - JT - Cole

Ramires - Lampard

Willian - Oscar - Schurrle

Ba

1. Give Eto 15-20 minutes.

2. Sub on Luiz.

3. Salah should also get some playtime.

Wrong. Most important game is Sunderland on Saturday. We don't win that we might as well not go to Anfield. All focus on Saturday for now, be professional, get the 3 points and move on to Sunday week.

i agree and i didnt meant that the game with sunderland isnt important. just the game with pool will decide at 90% who will be the champion.

ALL GAMES are worth 3 points! we should see every game separately! go blues!!!

Big deal being made for no reason...isn't about being arrogant or any of that shite.One comment sums it up:

''The point of this article is what, exactly? Of course these things are planned in advance. You can't just shut off half of west London at 24hrs notice, can you? All the clubs and their respective councils will have these plans in place''

Of course, I'm sure Liverpool and City have done the same.

[Laylabelle 9,346]

Exactly.Except Liverpool are loved by the Mail so course nothing is said.

Lol, this is funny though.
