I thought those line-ups weren't official just yet, so who knows!

Wait a sec...why isn't Nani starting? Did I miss something?

He injured his left labia again.

Lineups in match centre on uefa.com are pretty correct.

Unless of course one of guys gets a sore throat 5 minutes before kick off

[Randall 315]

Shitting it right now.

Drogba - Torres

i don't have any doubt that this partnership ship will never work , i would have loved Drogba to come in at the 60 min. mark .

but the good news is malouda is benched .

Official?

Drogba and Torres starting.. either a very brave decision or a very stupid decision by CA.

Can only hope for the best.

I'm actually really really nervous about this game!! Only 45 minutes to go

Why do people only see Drogba as a big lump?

He can run your game when he is motivated.

Yes official.

Echo your sentiments 100%.

Exactly, this is the perfect partnership to field when you're against Rio-Vidic. I'm sure they're all motivated as it's CL and a replay of Moscow's final

What people?

[HRiver 1,512]

Have you people really thought that Anelka or Kalou would start instead of Drogba or Torres in a game like this? Drogba - Torres is how it should be, one of them will get the winner tonight.

Were at home, we have to go for it and see how it goes. Man Utd seem to be going for it too, playing a fucking strong team and ALSO 4-4-2. It's gonna be one hell of a match and i'm shitting it already. Can only hope that after 90 minutes, we're still very much in the tie. We cannot lose today and give ourselves a mountain to climb.

This is our chance for glory.

The thing with having Drogba and Torres up front, it may sound good on paper, but both strikers like a bit of space to run into when they get given the ball from midfield. If both strikers are too similar, they're not going to function properly as a unit. That's the way I see it!
