Really do want this win!, Tevez might be unfit for the game, we will be finding out, if he is then Balotelli will probably take his place. Lets hope he keeps his feet down this time.

Yeah, no Tevez is really a good news. He has scored 6 goals in the five last games that he's played against us.

And I though that I would never say that, but... I'm happy that Kalou starts the game ! He will add some pace and some creativity. I actually hoped he would start... And I hope that Malouda will justify why he is back in the starting XI.

ps: Both Drogba and Anelka on the bench... Carlo has certainly recovered his balls :D
