Can't see past a Chelsea victory in this.

efb · 30-01-2015 9:13pm

I just think Henry oozes cool. Chelsea could be hampered by midweek slog against Liverpool. 2-2

GavRedKing · 30-01-2015 9:15pm

Id take a draw but fancy a Drogba hat trick.

He hasnt scored against them since 2007 hes due one at least.

GavRedKing · 30-01-2015 9:18pm

Oh and I'm going to this game so cant wait for tomorrow.

Given the last two games i went to were 0-0 its highly unlikely itll be a 0-0.....i hope.

Professional Griefer · 30-01-2015 9:18pm

Idk, hes very annoying. GTFO off my tv pls.

Chelsea 2-1

Panthro · 30-01-2015 9:18pm

While I see Jose putting Drogba up front, I really hope he takes s punt on Remy. Reckon he'd cause a hape of trouble.

I dont know why the league champions are even bothering to show up

Dozen Wicked Words · 30-01-2015 10:40pm

Dour nil nil.

hullaballoo · 30-01-2015 10:46pm

Fairly flaccid affair expected. 1-1.

I expect that Chelsea will dominate possession but city will end up with better chances.

Dour. /hopeimwrong

I have seen people calling it el plastico, el cashico but tbf City vs Chelsea has been entertaining game since they got rich owner. Even when City were not winning league they did well against Chelsea at Bridge.

Duck Soup · 31-01-2015 3:09am

1-0 Chelsea. Remy in the 89th minute.

Caveman1 · 31-01-2015 3:17am

Chelsea to win 2-0, although it's still early days I think if chelsea win that's the league done, can't see chelsea dropping an 8 point lead at this stage

31-01-2015 7:51am

Nobody giving City a prayer.

Broadford scored 4, Liverpool scored none but probably would have with a striker in the class of Aguero

2-1 City

niallo27 · 31-01-2015 9:04am

Hopefully city win for the good of the league.

Yeah, I like both sides but I'd prefer to see Manchester City win to keep the league more interesting for neutrals.

I think it will be a draw though, which both sides will be happy with.

rottie 11 · 31-01-2015 3:12pm

Would happily take a 1 nil chelsea win but i cant see city not scoring so 2-1 chelsea

rwbug · 31-01-2015 3:17pm

Yaya might be too big a loss today. Forget the driving runs etc it is his playmaking ability that City have been sorely lacking, he controls the possession and tempo they play at and Fernando can't fill that gap.

Fuzzy_Dunlop · 31-01-2015 4:48pm

Chelsea's bench is looking a little bare.

Also interesting that Sagna is starting for City ahead of Zab.

I think I misheard but I thought the woman on NBC said 615 million people would be watching this

Not really looking forward to this, if I'm being honest. Our defence has been iffy all season. Even without Costa, Chelsea still have Oscar, Hazard, Remy and Willian; they're no mugs. Yaya is a big absence for us, and I have grave doubts about Fernando. Through my most heavily tinted sky blue specs, we can maybe get a draw. MAYBE. Which wouldn't really be enough; we've got to try to close that gap. If it stays at 5 points or , God forbid, goes up to 8 I can't see Chelsea throwing that away in what will be 15 games.
