Sunderland guess:
Hart
Zabaleta Demichelis Kompany Clichy
Navas Yaya Milner Silva
Dzeko Jovetic

Chelsea guess:
Pantilimon
Richards Demichelis Lescott Kolarov
Navas Milner Garcia Lopes
Dzeko Jovetic

Barca guess:
Hart
Zabaleta Kompany Demichelis Clichy
Silva Yaya Garcia Fernandinho Nasri
Aguero

I think Nasri back for Barca is optimistic.

If Garcia is fit I would play him over Milner v Sunderland.

That side v Chelsea doesn't look strong enough to beat them but needs must I suppose.

My guess is Kolarov versus Sunderland and versus Barca.

 

[carlos tevez is a blue]

My guess is Kolarov versus Sunderland and versus Barca.

Clichy for me, horses for courses, Pedro would run Kolarov ragged.

Last year it was similar, 2-3 weeks before the FA Cup final we had a chance to beat Wigan in the league and that was a very bad match and we were lucky to win, Wigan knew what they have to play but Tevez found a long shot goal and kept a clean sheet. But in the final Wigan again knew what they have to play and they found a late goal...

For us 3 matches in a row without scoring, now that would be madness. Negredo and dzeko arent in great form, they struggle to get even shot on targets...
4231, with milner/Demichelis in the middle (Demi deeper, milner like box-to-box, Yaya in free role and Jovetic from left, Silva from right, Negredo upfront and lot of overlaping from fullbacks.

If we stick to put it wide and cross like jokers into wall of Sland defenders we can end up like yesterday easily. They wil defend for their lifes, while we just hope the cross/corner beats the first man once out of 20 time.

[phuket_CTID]

would sooner give priority to Sunderland game, all goes well, take players off with an eye on Chelsea, if its frustrating like yesterday, hope for a breakthrough but if not, accept that injuries have forced our hand for the chelsea game and save our strongest (patched up) side for Barca.
