Some of our players have either been completely out of form in recent weeks or holding back for this, hopefully it's the latter and we have a big performance. Want to see us chase down the defenders when they have the ball like we did at spurs away. Need to fire from the first whistle as if we sit and wait game could be over before we start

Definitely our strongest 11 for the big games against better opposition. God knows why we haven't seen it in more away games.


Well, here's to this MYTH being busted tonight...

We SUCK playing one up front (none of our strikers are really fit for it, and none of our midfielders bar Yaya are really great finishers in front of goal).

Apart from Bayern away, we were abysmal in any game we played one up front...even though there were not many of them...where is this (another) legend coming from is a real mystery.

Watch our TOOTHLESS edition prior to introducing 2nd striker tonight.

Maybe in terms of possession, but I think we had maybe 1 total quality chance created in that match.
 
I really wanted to be positive however I see lescott milner and clichy being very weak and getting schooled tonight

Barca will exploit both lescotts and clichys poor ball control and the Barca pressing will rattle lescott and clichy into errors

I only hope we take any and all Half chances we get so once again I hope Silva has his shooting boots tonight

We scored a goal so clearly we created more than 1 chance. As I remember it we spurned several chances to score. in our typical fashion.

We shall see. For me the balance is much better, and if Chelsea can play with a small/slight lone striker (Etoo/Torres) and win games, then im sure Aguero (a far superior player than either of those two) is perfectly able to play effectively on his own, as long as he gets the support from the likes of Silva/Yaya.

Mancini generally played one up top in big games home and away.
