Madmax 9,219 Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Anelka already has won the Champions, with Madrid. Of course, but I meant in Chelsea colours. I imagine he'd want to atone for missing the penalty that handed them the trophy 3 years ago.Win or lose, Up the fucking Blues Rip the shit outta those red cunts Can't argue with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MetsajCFC 1,255 Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 I'm feeling more confident than I did before the first leg oddly enough. 2-1 for Chelsea, through with away goals. Let's have it, come on chelsea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HRiver 1,512 Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 As for the line-up for the game, these would be my favourites:CechIvanovic - Alex - Terry - ColeEssien - MikelRamires - Lampard BenayounTorresorCechIvanovic - Alex - Terry - ColeMikelRamires - Benayoun - LampardDrogba - TorresIn the first line-up, I'd expect Essien and Mikel to do amazingly well with their strength and defensive skills to stop United's passing game and take the ball off them. Ramires and Lampard could combine well with each other, and as for Benayoun and Torres, it's obviously clear that it'd work, unless United mark them perfectly well and not give them enough space to move. Benayoun + Torres is who I'm having my biggest hopes on for Tuesday.As for the second line-up, pretty much similar, but Drogba starting instead of Essien. The Bison hasn't been performing too well in his last performances, hence I believe that Mikel would be a better choice, as he can pass to Ramires - Benayoun or Lamps without showing any sort of pressure. Drogba with his strength could win aerial battles against United's defense, and he and Torres could work, who knows.I'm more optimistic about this than I was about the first leg game. I have a great feeling that we can beat them. A good advantage we have for this game is Alex returning. We all know how good he is at free-kicks, and we could attempt to get as many as possible. With Alex and Drogba, we could score a freekick or two, and how awesome would it be to silent Old Trafford with a rocket shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MetsajCFC 1,255 Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 CechIvanovic - Alex - Terry - ColeMikelRamires - Benayoun - LampardDrogba - TorresPerfection. I feel that we need to take the game to them from the kick off. We can't afford to wake up in the 60th minute and thus cut our finger. This line-up will do the job if we perform and take our chances. I've no doubt we can do it, I can feel it. To be honest being the chasers this time around we should have the mental edge, we've got nothing to lose anymore. They need to protect their lead, I doubt they will sit back but when they're going forward we can sting them with counter attacks. The pressure is on them, not us. Whichever the result, the most important thing for me is that we either go down or go through fighting, that's all I ask as a fan. Sometimes things don't go your way, that's understandable but there needs to be passion and desire to fight for the team and as a team. No doubt in my mind, will be tough task but when we pull it off, my god, will it be special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pachman40 357 Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Don't want to jinx anything but the ref for this game is a shit ref from Portugal...Benquerenca. He's horrible, but in general he's universally horrible as opposed to favoring one team so hopefully the ref element is a wash. I don't understand how UEFA picks these refs, what standards they use, cuz if they asked any fan from Portugal they could name 3-4 better refs ahead of this guy. Anyways, just thought I'd throw that out there.I have a quiet confidence about this game, I don't know why but I just have a feeling we'll have our game of the season and win 2-0 with both goals scored in the first half. We can hope can't we? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can hope can't we? On Tuesday we won't get robbed. Officials are under pressure now. I believe that they will give us ANY penalty, unless it's obvious and if our players dive. We won't get robbed, we did in 2005, 2009, last week, but we won't on Tuesday. They'll be more careful than we all think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HRiver 1,512 Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Yeah, and Torres never takes penalties anyway.He used to back in his Atletico Madrid days, but I haven't seen him take one for years. But God, please don't let it go on penalties. I don't think we'd win in front of 70,000 Manchester United fans.I'd rather lose 3-0 in regular time than lose on penalties. Losing on penalties is heart-breaking, I just can't take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
