I just really really hope we don't play for the draw tomorrow. Fergie has said we'll go for it. I hope he means it. I can just picture a slow start, 'keeping it tight', frustration sets in to the crowd and Chelsea start to press hard around the 70 minute mark. If we can come out the traps quickly, score early then I wouldn't mind us sitting back a little more and inviting them on because we'd have something to protect. It's a fine line, as always, but I hope we're positive. |

it's not an excuse for the arsenal game, it's just obvious that it would affect their focus, a distraction which their opponents didn't have and would've known was to their advantage. it's just normal. as for the game yeah a fast start seems like the way to go if we want to ensure that we don't get lulled into passive easy possession only to be left standing when chelsea crank up the tempo. but it's a fine line, and i expect united to control the tempo and take full advantage of the spaces chelsea leave as they try and force the game the longer it goes on - the clock is our friend uke: |

Re: Team for Sunday
Chelsea are actually playing worse than we are in the League.
They were very fortunate against West Ham & Spurs....also, didn't they win 1-0 at home a couple of weeks ago with another goal that shouldn't have counted?? - Malouda scored from what I can remember. *How many home games in a row have they £#%&!ing had? My only concern is the Ref & Drogba. Other than that, if we play anything close to our best we'll beat them. |

Re: Team for Sunday
The Hernandez and Rooney partnership have started 6 out of the last 9 games. In those 6 matches the side has scored 6 goals.
1-0 against Chelsea(Rooney) 2-1 against Chelsea(Hernandez, Park) 0-0 against Newcastle 1-0 against Everton(Hernandez) 2-0 against Schalke(Giggs, Rooney) 0-1 against Arsenal Not a great goal return, but in fairness a tough run of games. In prior matches the turn around at West Ham when Hernandez and Berbatov came off the bench and the 4-0 against Wigan are the rare games when the partnership have brought more than 2 goals for the team. You could say that we need more games to really make a judgement, but despite threatening and looking a natural fit the goals, as a team, divorced from the goals of Hernandez and Rooney, have really not flowed. A major part of that is Rooney having that tendency to drop too deep when partnered with Hernandez. The hard run of fixtures recently could explain that to an extent though. |

Re: Team for Sunday
chelsea will try to own the midfield. and kick nani. I am tempted to go for berb's ability to hold off thugs like ivanovic and louise, but £#%&! it.... we're at home and the crowd will get them sent off. supernani can be the tethered goat.

rafael - smalling - vidic - evra carrick - fabio valencia - giggs - nani rooney |
