UEFA Champions League/Europa League 5/6/7 April *** Spoilers ***

[Cosimo]

Isn't Park starting instead of Nani?

He is:

Chelsea v Man Utd teams:

Chelsea: Cech, Bosingwa, Ivanovic, Terry, Cole, Ramires, Essien, Lampard, Zhirkov, Drogba, Torres.

Subs: Turnbull, Benayoun, Mikel, Malouda, Ferreira, Kalou, Anelka.


Man Utd: Van der Sar, Rafael Da Silva, Vidic, Ferdinand, Evra, Valencia, Carrick, Giggs, Park, Hernandez, Rooney.

Subs: Kuszczak, Berbatov, Smalling, Nani, Scholes, Evans, Gibson.

Just realised my mistake and edited above. I guess my mind can't comprehend why we'd start Park instead of Nani, so tried to do the decent thing...

[edit]

And it'll depend what side we're attacking from as to whether Rooney or Chico is deep.

Chico is always off the last defender

Must be ******* demoralising being Nani or Berbatov, having your best seasons for the club, only to get dropped when players like Carrick can get picked every week regardless of how crap they play

Berbatov won't be happy staying if this continues much longer. He finally shows some form after a shocking start at Utd and this is how we reward him

I agree with the sentiment, even if there are valid reasons for dropping Berba, given how well Roon and Chicharito play together, and as far as we know Nani cant even play centrally ie as a Carrick replacement, we should be thankful that Gibson isnt starting haha

Anyone else's sky sports being glitchy? Not that I'm watching it tonight

 

[IceBus]

I'd far rather drop Carrick to the bench and play Nani, then play Park through the centre. I reckon 2-2.

 

[Robbo]

I'm not overly confident, but here's hoping...!

so two attacking midfielders...yeah I wonder why SAF didnt chiose that option lol

 

[GiT]

Hopefully no ITV shock fests tonight.

 

[Ciphon]

I'll go for a 2-1 United win.

This *COULD* be a great game...

 

[MofoKilla]

Torres doing his bambi act as allways.

If you think we play Giggs as an attacking midfielder you obviously haven't watched us play any matches this year.

Have ITV smeared vaseline on the camera tonight?

 

[Hxc]

Roony rolled about a bit there!

 

[GiT]

Chelsea get away with that. Essien lucky to be on the field

 

[Cosimo]

It was just a tap.

 

[utajoker]

yet another shocking tackle from essien.

 

[Hxc]

Barca setting up for a drubbing perhaps?

 

[Tombstone]

Footballing shock as Barcelona score against donetsk after 2 mins.

 

[Participant]

Torres vs Vidic could be juicy. I'm going to say Vidic will be doing the walk of shame at some point .
