    Kaboul is out, Daws is out, King hasn't been up to scratch the last couple of games. Don't be surprised if starting CB's are Nelsen and Gallas. The squad is very thin at the minute, even BENTLEY could be named on the bench!

    I still think we'll win after 90mins, 1-0 Spurs.

    JESUS I didn even realise. Now im properly worried and as for BENTley if he gets on and Gio dos santos doesnt get a chance ahead of him il go mental.

    Joke the way the match is on at 6 to accomodate TV audiences.

    I'm not very confident about this game, I think Chelsea should win it handy enough, 2-0. Kaboul is a massive loss, and not only does it affect the defence, it will also affect the midf. Arry now has to decide whether to play both Parker & Sandro to pretect the defence, but then that will have a negative impact on our attacking play, as either vdV or Lennon will have to make way.
    I expect to something like this;

    Friedal
    Walker --- King --- Gallas --- BAE
    Lennon --- Parker --- Modric --- Bale
    vdV
    Adebayor

    I'd prefer to see Sandro than Parker but I don't think Harry will drop Parker. If Sandro does play then either vdV or Lennon will drop to the bench.

    I don't know anybody who is confident about this match, that includes both spurs and Chelsea fans. Shows just how terrible both clubs are playing.

    Here's hoping the reverse jinx kicks in: 2-1 Spurs, maybe after ET.

    Starting XI:

    Cudicini
    Walker --- Gallas --- King --- BAE
    Lennon --- Parker --- Modric --- Bale
    vdV
    Adebayor

    Thought Arry would play Friedal but no real surprises otherwise.

    Surprised at Friedel on the bench. Has Cudicini played all through the rest of the competition or something?

    It's just an opinion mike, no need for the sarcastic response.

    He stated it as a fact though, never said it was his opinion. Still expect Spurs to take this.

    It was a minute silence for Hillsborough hence why ITV showed Anfield from today's service.

    A minority were making noise during the 60 seconds, the booing was the rest of the crowd showing what they thought of the idiots at the end.

    A few idiots in the crowd. That's not a reflection of the whole set.

    BBC Radio 5 live's chief football correspondent Mike Ingham at Wembley: "During yesterday's minute's silence you could have heard a pin drop. During this minute's silence... well, the minute's silence didn't last a minute. It had to be abbreviated. The noise came from the Chelsea end, it has to be said. They just couldn't keep quiet."

    Awful to hear the noise but unfortunately not surprising.

    It's only Twitter I know, but going from it, the boos and taunts were coming from just the Chelsea section of fans.

    Lot of journos saying it now, can't say I'm too surprised tbh.

    No Torres for Chelsea. Suprising. He has done well over the last few games.

    Wouldn't expect any less from the same fans who did this.

    Was for both. Some Chelsea fans chanting 'murderers' during it & ref blew it up after 25 seconds. I kinda wanted to face Chelsea in the final, now I hope they get ****ing stuffed.
