Who you got? Thoughts?
Torres goal watch continues. In the past he's made Vidic his bitch. He hasn't made anyone his bitch in a while.
Sounds like David Luiz will be starting. I really like watching him play.
A chelsea win would do wonderful things for an exciting finish in the title race.
I don't think anyone in the world is playing better than United right now but I'm calling a 1-1 draw mainly because the game is at Stamford Bridge.

Fernando Torres plays 67 minutes. Covers 20 yards of grass and gets subbed off.

Has been very good IMO. Alex looks to be a summertime sale.

Chelsea, City and Tottenham are playing for 3rd-5th place. Liverpool was until the result against West Ham.

I've never liked him. Now if we could jettison Carlo...
I think Chelsea takes this one 2-1. Torres actually scores. Ca$hley Cole shoots the Mexican and becomes the Soccer Board mascot for the year.

We shall see. I would love to see ManU drop points, but their organization has been really great this season. I see a draw.

Your dip in form corresponded with Alex's injury (which also corresponded with Wilkins' departure). Guy is a good CB and takes one mean FK.

I agree. I just dislike him. Almost as much as I dislike Joe Cole.

this would be best case..
if that cant happen, then a United win would be best for Spurs..

Im a little worried as a Blues fan. Chelsea havent looked so hot recently, besides at Copenhagen. I will say Torres is overdue for a goal. He's had countless chances and just needs to get his confidence back and in turn his touch back. It's at Stamford Bridge so I think Chelsea can pull off the draw. But a win would be huge.
And a side comment, I've always liked Alex, but im loving David Luiz. Dude has been money so far. If Chelsea can step up their midfield play I think they have a good shot.

I don't get the love for chelsea in this one. Their defense is thin and their midfield has played like a shell of its former self. Lampard is invisible except for when he is shanking FKs. Compare that to united who have a solid defense with one of the best CBs in the game. United's forward line is pretty dynamic with berbs, rooney, and mexican boy. SAF can coach circles around anchelotti. 1-0 united.

Please.
Branislav Ivanovich, David Luiz, John Terry, Ashley Cole is hardly a "thin" back line.
It's the distribution out of the midfeld that is hurting Chelsea right now. Better creative passing from Michael Essien and Frank Lampard is the key.
Besides his freak goal the other day, Rooney isn't exactly lighting the world on fire right now. Berba is a serious threat at the moment and I don't see Hernandez playing in this one.
It's at The Bridge so you know it's going to go down to the wire if Chelsea don't win.

He has 4 goals in his last 4 matches. Not a bad ratio.
Anywho, I'm hoping for a tie or /splashes holy water on self as to not burst into glames/ a Chelsea win
