Chelsea V Man City Pre- Match Thread.

[Anglesey-Blue]

I'm travelling out to Dubai on Saturday so will be finding a bar to watch it in.
Any fellow bluemooners been there that could advise me where to go to watch it?
My brother lives out there but despises football.

Is anyone on here part of a supporters club that is travelling down to London on Sunday? If so, do you know if there's any places still available? or who I could ring to check?

Thanks in advance, James

I know this sounds a bit sarcastic , but as you seem to be in Bury have you tried the North Bury , or Heywood , branches ??

Both appear to be running transport to the game ... North Bury are also on twitter and facebook ...

Sorry to give you all the bad news, but we're not in this game any more. According to Talkshite, it's Chelsea V Rags.

Im sure they're trying to bait us into ringing in or texting in. Tuesday, Durham was trying it on. Saying that no City fans were ringing in to back up Gaz Baz being better than Carrick. Said we must all be 'avin a laff.

Really don't like the idea of Garcia and Barry playing together against the possible, extremely fluid, 3 attacking midfielders Chelsea can out out (Mata, Hazard and Oscar). Although it would be harsh on him I'd prefer to see Milner drop deep and play with Barry whilst Yaya pushes up and Aguero replaces Silva. I just dont think we can afford Yaya walking back to defend when he should be running this game.

Hart
Zaba Kompany Nastasic Clichy

Milner Barry

Aguero Yaya Nasri

Tevez

Not an expert by any means, but spent 2 days (1 night) there on the way back from Thailand. The only bars will be on hotel complexes. They probably will have the game on though, but they will slug you for the beer.

Do we overload the midfield?

Chelsea probable v Rubin Kazan according to the Guardian

Chelsea (4-2-3-1; probable): Cech; Azpilicueta, Ivanovic, Terry, Ferreira; Mikel, Lampard; Moses, Oscar, Benayoun; Torres.

That would mean only 2-3 players including the keeper playing :-(
