BlueLion. 21,491 Posted July 28, 2010 Author Share Posted July 28, 2010 TBH this is nothing more than a glorified friendly. It would be nice to dish out another thrashing to United but it is more important to build up fitness. Plus I don't expect many WC players to play so it will be mainly for the squad players and youngsters. I doubt it will be a classic but a win and a trophy would be a nice way to start!I disagree. It counts nothing towards the league season but it is a massive confidence boost and potentially a psychological victory over our biggest challenger in many ways.

Pensioner1905 0 Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 (edited) Much more then a friendly. This sets the season right here, remember how intense last years community shield was? beautiful. Everyone plays in this one, both sides. Regardless when the red and blue collide who wants to lose? no one. Honestly when playing those reds stop Valencia from feeding crosses. Hes a classic futbol player nothing fancy just gets the job done n then some. Who covers him? Cole? great match up Edited July 30, 2010 by Pensioner1905 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't play any friendly match with Chelsea and he competed on the Euro recently. I don't know if his weak physical condition will speak louder.If Chelsea buys Ramires everything will change.Finally, Bruma is playing well? I haven't seen him play.

DavidEU 2,023 Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Drogba and Cech aren't injured?If Chelsea buy Ramires everything changes.Finally, Bruma is playing well? I haven't seen him play.Carlo said on Saturday that he hopes Drogba and Cech will be ready for Sunday. Fingers crossed.Ramires certainly won't play Sunday, even if (big if) he signs.Hard to say based on the friendlies he's played. Certainly hasn't looked bad. He won't play on Sunday though, Alex or Carvalho will. Make no mistake, Carlo and all the players will take this game 100% seriously. They'll want this trophy.And, Alex, spot on.
