£#%&!ing hell this is tense!!!

Trying to get all my voodoo working for this £#%&!er, but in truth this basically amounts to...

How and who I say goodbye to people at work on a Friday evening (although this doesn't always work)

Whether or not I post a team on here (although this doesn't always work)

Whether or not I post a team with or without saying that my posting of a team may or may not help us in a spititual manner to victory against our weekend opponents (although this doesn't always work)

Something else that pops into my head that the OCD section of my brain reckons I should or not be doing in order to ensure victory against our weekend opponents (although this doesn't always work)

VDS
Rafael
Ferdinand
Vidic
Evra
Valencia
Carrick
Giggs
Park
Berbatov
Rooney

Have to watch out for this piece of shit, European ref didn't fall for it but Webb will be desperate to prove he's not a United fan

Same here, MJ.

I think I'll join you on the nervy doomstakes this weekend, mate. Massive, massive, massive game. Just a point. C'mon. Is that too much to ask?.....

.....I think our biggest problem will be nerves. We have to be positive and assert ourselves early on. We can't afford to be cagey and let any anxiety to creep into our play...or into the crowd.

I think Pea is essential against their relatively immobile backline. I'm sure Terry and co would rather face Berbs than Pea.

you mean pretend, surely

he'll probably give chelsea a couple of nice soft penalties early on just so it doesn't look too suss towards the end when he gives us the customary old trafford dodgy corner kick

Can we not whinge about the ref before the game has even started, please? We may aswell complain about the players having a bad game before it's started too.

Let's make the ref not matter!

I've pushed rooney up top with berbatov and given them instructions to split wide for giggs, park and valencia to surge through. Just hope they were listening.

Berbs was too busy yawning and Rooney just told you to £#%&! off. Oh well, you tried.

3-0 Chelsea.

Anyway I'm moaning about Torres, not the ref.

The collective United 'we'.

(Incidentally, I only say 'we' on here. Don't do it in real life. I've never understood that. "Went to the game. We played really well today". No, they played well, you just watched.)

A smidge too attacking and therefore open in midfield for my liking.

I'm so £#%&!ing nervous about this game it's ridiculous.

Every possible scenario keeps playing out in my mind...the biggest fear is an early goal for them - a Lampard deflection or a Drogba offside special.

I can't remember such a make or break game - it literally is a case of, 3pts for us = Champions/a defeat means Chelsea take the Title.

£#%&!ing terrifying

I have a non-football fan mate who constantly tells me off for that. I suppose it's to distinguish from the opposition. If you come home and say 'they played well', you could be talking about the other team. Or something, maybe.

Anyway,

Rooney and Hernandez up front, £#%&! Chelsea, 2-0 United
