I hope you are right - but given how decisions usually go against Utd when they play Chelsea (until this week anyway) I wouldnt bet on a similar 2-1 away win which would have course see Utd out

Admittedly Chelsea have until this point played a lot worse over the course of the season than they did when coming to OT last year

Hopefully Terry will stud Hernandes' calf in the opening few minutes and get a yellow, and this further 'injustice' will send them all over the edge with two reds in the ensuing fracas for dissent.

Zero discipline in that side, I can easily see it being somebody else's fault other than theirs if they enter the last ten minutes and they're still down.
 
Wont be an easy game at Old Trafford. Chelsea need to attack as they need the goals which will suit us.

Prediction? 2-1 to United. Rooney and Chica to get the goals.
 
Seems mad to say this but I'm more nervous with it being 1-0 than I would be had the first leg finished 0-0 :confused:

Will be interesting to see if we go with the same starting XI albeit O'Shea for Rafael as the first leg or if we'll go 5 in midfield with Nani coming in for Chicharito and be a bit harder to break down...

I'm bricking it tbh :(
 
Spurs to get knocked out by Real...Ronaldo to score a hattrick and Adebayor to bag a brace.

Cant see the Spurs beating Real or even getting close to hauling back the 4 goals they are down by.

Was a nice little run on the CL for the Spurs..did better than Arsenal but then to be fair if Spurs had met Barca in the previous round...they would have a new one ripped in them too:p...

Not overly concerned about Utd and Chelsea as i dislike both teams immensely...kinda hoping Chelsea beat Utd but for some odd reason i cant see it...Chelsea dfont look the same they did before xmas when they were on a rampage.

If Chelsea go with a 4-3-3 with Torres at the tip and Benayoun in the middle; I can see them scoring a couple of goals.

Essien and Lampard to be dropped as they are playing awful, so I'd go with:

Cech​
Ivanovic ---- Alex ---- Terry ---- Cole
Mikel​
Ramires -- Benayoun​
Anelka ------------------------ Zhirkov
Torres​

OR

Cech​
Ivanovic ---- Alex ---- Terry ---- Cole
Ramires -- Benayoun​
Anelka ---------- Kalou -------- Zhirkov
Torres​
 
I see Spurs scoring many goals but at the same time conceding. a 4-4 will do it for me since when did we last see it in the CL.

Much as Torres annoyed me when he left LFC i see him scoring his first goal to night that will send the game into extra time and may be penalties and of course Terry doing his usual thing of denying Chelsea any remaining chance in the shootouts..LOL!!
 
Sounds like Rafael wont play tonight ( and Fab wont play in his place either) Raf should be ok for Sat though

Fletcher had a chance of playing but again think it will be the weekend more likely

Otherwise a fully fit squad which is good to hear
 
^ Oshea should do a good job there. Would rather have oshea at right back then rafael tonight.

No chance sorry - Utd need to get at Chelsea on the counter, and Rafael is great for getting that started

OShea is ok dont get me wrong, but he is definitely the stand-in/replacement rather than the other way round now.
