DavidEU 2,023 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Is there any chance of any Ashley Cole return for this one?Doubt they'd bring him back for such a big game. Will probably get 30 minutes in the Stoke game, and a start at Anfield if that goes well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve 10,227 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Highly unlikely but who knows what Carlo has up his sleeve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diskoviolente 425 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Can´t watch the game sadly. Maybe good on the other side, i nearly died watching the United game. The games get bigger and bigger at the moment, of course it´s the run-in. Feels quite exciting.Spurs and Arse both played a terrible game on wednesday. Really bad game by both, Spurs were more organised though. Can see us winning there. Malouda will cause more trouble than the whole Arsenal squad i´d say. Spurs defence just can´t handle a good counter attack while their attacking line is pretty stunning....Dare you Eidur scoring against us ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EskWeston 696 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Ashley Cole back in the squad.Excellent news and with Ivanovic back also we are looking good for the run in. CFC Website also says that J.Cole, Deco and Malouda will all start. So who does Ancelotti start upfront? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubber bullets 1,183 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 If I'm correct, if City beat Utd. and we win against Spurs, then if we win against Stoke we win the title as that means the maximum points Utd. could win with 3 games would be 82. By beating Spurs we will be on 80 points, meaning that we would need at least 3 points in 3 games to win the title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kajo 176 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Carlo Ancelotti has announced that Ashley Cole is in the squad for the match at Tottenham tomorrow (Saturday). The left-back has been out since January with a broken ankle. He will begin the game on the bench. 'He has trained well all week, is totally recovered and is 100 per cent fit,' says Ancelotti. Michael Essien is not yet ready to return. Joe Cole, Deco and Florent Malouda will all start the game. The manager's full match preview will appear here later.

Rubber bullets 1,183 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Thank god Ancelotti is using two wingers and one striker, hopefully Deco will be the key to unlock Spurs midfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

millzy_chelsea_fan 4 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 palacios and krancjar are both out so we should control the midfield. the problem will be getting past the two centre-backs. also gareth bale is doing mint at the moment so we will have to stop him. we will need iva for him.

Aesthetic Relic 301 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 (edited) We can afford to draw this game, so coming away with 1 point wont be the end of thr world. I'm pretty confident we'll see off Stoke, Liverpool and Wigan.3 points and we're almost across the finishing line. I genuinely feel that Manu will drop points against Cit£h....Let the party begin Edited April 16, 2010 by Aesthetic Relic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badboy 1,526 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 I think we will start with anelka up front drogba always seems to get angry and come off the bench and score, he has done it plenty of times in the past. Malouda and joe cole will play wide with deco mikel and lampard, I think if we player with a high intensity like against man utd we will win !

Ollie 4,400 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 I think we know the starting XI now, not sure if Brani is back properly or not but i feel he might be ready. Paulo has done very well tho which has been great to see so i think he'll continue to deputise from the start at least. So happy to see Ashley Cole back in the squad and Branislav Ivanovic. What a fantastic time for this. Deco will give Frank license to terrorise the yido's and Joe Cole looks back to his best for me with Malouda also playing brilliantly of late. Looks a great team, just need Essien back and we're pretty much at 100%. Let's finish this season with a bang!CechFerreira JTAlexZhirkov MikelDecoLampardMaloudaJoe Cole DrogbaThat is what the team will be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray. 217 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Rather than start a new topic in the Match Tickets and travel section i'll ask here about travel to tomorrows game. I'm thinking about going to Liverpool Street and going from there to White Hart Lane. Is that the best way or is there a better route? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think i'll probably go to WHl. Not worried about queues after the game, it can't be as bad as after going to the Emirates, that was quite a long queue if I remember for the tube Edited April 16, 2010 by Blueray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
