No Lucas please. Allen has a fair engine on him and will offer more than Lucas. Hope Sturridge is fit.
There's still an outside chance of Chelsea getting the league, but surely the priority now will be Cl? Three wins in Europe and he's champ. He'll no doubt rest a few and hopefully that'll make a difference. It'll be tough, but come on, they just lost at home to the bottom team in the land, so they are far from unbeatable. We're at home and if the noise was as it was when we played citeh, we should get at least a point. But with citeh still lurking, three points is a must.

Gary I so want to fuck them up - I really want Jose to feel the pain next Sunday. But I fear they will be on high alert after their recent defeat.
We already had some stuff after the City game - was it Cech and Terry? Maybe Mourinho will try something, but its sting is partially lost as, even if they win they're still behind us and likely City too. I'd be surprised anyway if we responded - I think BR will have us focused on the game and will avoid anything else.
I'm not taking them lightly at all mate, just stating what I want to happen 😀
See some people suggesting Mourinho might field a weakened team against us with the 2 big CL games between next Sunday. Not a chance, he'll be desperate to beat us and be the media darling again.
So we all agree that we need Sturridge against Chelsea.
But why?
The reason I feel that we need him back is mainly because I want another attacker on the pitch. Suarez looks jaded imo and despite the one game a week schedule he doesn't seem as energetic as he was earlier in the season.
Sturridge offers us another outlet, his pace and trickery might cause the Chelsea defence problems.
In the Norwich game Suarez was often isolated up front and didn't get enough backing from midfield. Chelsea would make it a lot more difficult than Norwich did in defence. We missed Sturridge in the away game against Chelsea but I hope he makes it back for this one.

If Sturridge is fit, I'd like us going with the diamond, with Sterling on the right of it. All three ahead of Gerrard are mobile, quick with their feet and mind, deceptively physical/strong, hold the ball up well and are all able to move the ball quickly from back to front in a few touches and passes. It doesn't matter that Sterling is starting a little deeper, because he's got so explosive pace, he'll make up the yards he concedes in no time. Plus, he's tenacious and will offer help on that side to Johnson and Gerrard in locking down Hazard and Willian. And he can also swap with Coutinho in game at times too, when he's recovering from burning up some of his jet fuel after a lightning raid.
--------- Gerrard ----------
---- Sterling --- Allen ----
-------- Coutinho ---------
That's another new position that Sterling will be taking up this season, but he's done so well in every position he's played, it's hard to imagine him faltering. Besides, it'll spring a nice little surprise on Chelsea. BOOM BOOM BOOM. Three goals up before half-time and we ready the cigar, caviar, champagne and condoms as City then go on to lose at Palace after that.

Nice to see you posting more regularly Avvy.
I hope we smash Chelsea not just because it will go a long way in us winning the title; but also because I hate Mourinho's guts. Would be nice if his CL and PL hopes ended in the same week.
I can't wait to hear the loudest rendition ever of "fuuuuuuuuck off Chelsea FC, you ain't got no history..."
Rodgers will say nothing. He will sit there and smile and wink knowingly and Maureen will become more and more irate at the lack of response and more and more extreme until his head explodes.
Cheers, Danny.
Reading your FB commentary last week was wonderful, btw 🙂
Does anyone have that linky to MOTD that was shared last week?
I think the current video clip up on the page for last night's MOTD is a link to a video clip download (mkv). The online vimeo version will be up in a while later, according to the site.
I can recommend Astrill VPN. Often providers such as the BBC/Sky check your IP and when it comes up Sing. / China / Whatever then sometimes "Content Not Available for your Region" pops up. However choosing an IP (you get to choose from tons of options) out of the UK/Europe/USA often solves that issue too.
Cheers, Froggy..that's exactly what happens to me.
Um, how do I choose the IP address?
Im better at MS Paint than I am at techie stuff, so you get the picture.
Have you got Astrill downloaded and installed ? Not sure it's worth it for you unless Sing has banned a lot of websites as per China, or you have a lot of banned Youtube content ? It's all there in their excellent instructions mate (drop-down and choose you IP - they have tons of them to choose from).
Apparently Maureen was talking about the Luis Garcia goal today in his CL pre-match interview.
Miguel Delaney @MiguelDelaney 27m
Also references Luis Garcia goal. "I got to semi-final and lost to goal that wasn't a goal"
also this:
Sam Wallace @SamWallaceIndy 32m
Mourinho asked outright (and politely) to answer question in Spanish by a local reporter. Responds in English
What a kunt.

I am very scared for this game.... Fuck me I hate this feeling!
I have a horrible feeling we'll lose to Chelsea and Palace.
And I genuinely believe that, it's not some voodoo attempt at crying it home.
We are stumbling to the finish line. Chelsea the best team to exploit that.
Pessimist.
