Some good news on Costa:

Chelsea striker Diego Costa has been left out of Vicente del Bosques Spain squad for this months matches with Belarus and Germany to help him recover from his recent injuries.

"I have spoken to our doctors and those of Chelsea and I have decided to leave him out due to the situation with his pubis (pelvis)," Del Bosque told a news conference on Friday.

Are you going to the game?

United need to give Palace a good tanking.

Whilst performances have been better we need to start picking up points and making teams fear OT again. I can't remember the last time we battered someone at home.

QPR?

Nope, it's too early for me.
I'm not sure I'd have been able to get a ticket anyway, the required loyalty points for away games for STH's is crazy at the moment

It's usually a ban win lose or draw these days =/

Be shocked of Chelsea don't win, like to think we'll keep it close for a while but such poor attacking talent with one striker and no studge

I'm sure a bit of that's lost in translation but it's still a daft thing to say.

 

[Loki]

Anyone see a potential upset on the cards at Anfield ?

Would not be surprised at 1-1

Probably just bored of the press hounding him about it.

A couple of seasons (with a hefty budget) is enough to get a team playing at somewhere approaching the very top level.

Warrington 1-0 Exeter, gotta love the early rounds of the cup!

It's possible as we've been below par the last couple of games and their 'best' players should be fresher than ours, Hazard for instance looked absolutely knackered on Wednesday night.

Chelsea pinching a draw wouldn't be that big of an upset.

 

[JohnnyG]

Chelsea pinching a draw wouldn't be that big of an upset.

Or that bad a result, Liverpool need to win.

 

[BaZ87]

Not sure about that. We're playing for 3rd and thankfully nobody looks any good in that race.

I was just about to edit my post to read 'if they want to win the league'
I guess there's no need.
