Just showed it on SSN. Sterling directly at the centre of defense. As Spurs showed, they are vulnerable.

This is what I said earlier and I'm sure many managers have seen it. Keep it down and play football instead of shitting it and hitting over the top.

In fact, I think I heard it from one of the pundits during the Spurs game, I won't take credit.

Ha ha ha, Costa looks at Skeletor and decides to run into him, gets taken out by an elbow (protection from Skrtyl) and then complains he doesn't get the call.

Cheating Wanker!

Liverpool unlucky there, hitting the post.

Chelsea very lucky. One shot all game and it was on target. T'was the penalty that they scored from!

Gerrard hit the post. SSN showing more than I expected. Chelsea defense looked very open there.

One commentator absurdly said at the weekend that Chelsea haven't got a weakness. Cahill extremely vulnerable to pace. Terry even more so. Cometh the man cometh the hour. Just do it Sergio.

And that there is a positive from the Arsenal game. Regardless of the score we got 2 of our main players to have full game time and with the added bonus of a friendly tomorrow and a game against Boro, they should be well up to speed going into the Chelsea game.

If we play our game Chelsea will be doing the same as they did in our last game and what they're doing here - defending for their lives.

So we want Chelsea to progress, albeit with suspension yellows, reds, and plenty of ET, so theyre in another competition to distract and increasepotential for fatige and injuries, right?

I think we have to hope for reds as they seem indestructible this season. Do they use infusions or something; how does Terry do it at his age, and after all his usual breakdowns?

Did Costa just dive again?

Cahill's awful tonight. Lost his confidence. Long may it continue.

Yes.

And also to make sure Rodgers win anything.

Yep.

I think we just need Liverpool to keep them in check and force the issue. The Dippers want a Cup Final and hopefully will go all out whilst Maureen will not want to concede defeat to one of his underlings.

I don't think a one game cup final will make much difference but a close scoreline going into the next leg will.

Courtois was their best player. Outstanding. Chelsea favourites to go through. Good.

And hopefully getting tireder.

Quite enjoyed that game and the Dippers should have won the leg if only for a cheating fucking Chelsea. I wonder if Brenda will now tell us that they should be the LC winnders?

Zab's & Komp's better beware, Chelsea will be doing exactly the same to us, and the ref will help fall for it everytime.

Take note Pellers keep it tight and get the ball to Sergio as early as possible, both centre halfs are to be exposed at every opportunity.

Just a quick one, i sthe LC getting a bit of mojo?

I always used to think that teams didn't care (mainly because the Arse played their shit youth) until the semi's but over the last few years it's become a little bit more important for even the top teams; they're giving it real respect.

Chelsea looked off the pace again tonight & still half the season to go. Some of City's big players have had a nice long rest, new cf arriving in a few weeks, maybe one or two kids about to break through, poss work permit for Kelechi.

Last year they beat us in Feb & thought they were going to win the league. But they didn't.

Brenda says Raheem, the boy, needed a rest and now he's had a game off he's ready for the 2nd half of the season. Please tell me Brenda, who picks him for for near enough every game of the season, who is the only one able to give him a rest?
