"Man Utd vs Chelsea"

Sunday at 4pm. I'm going for Chelsea.

I would quite like a Man U win and it would be quite nice to see Man U, Chelsea and Arsenal in the top four (of course Man U and Arsenal would be behind Wigan :) but I think an angry Chelsea will romp an angry Man U.

Man United arn't the team we used to be. It'll be a good match but I think Chelsea will win.

However, go back in time and play the 1999 man united and we'd kick their asses 3-0!

Edit: P.S Is Giggsy still out? If he's not then hje sure as hell better be in the starting line up!

what am i talking about, bring in park instead!!!!

United problems on the pitch have been over exaggerated by the media, the midfield is where the main problem lies and of course the injuries have made matters worse and this is showing how poor players like Silvestre really are.

This game indeed will be won in the midfield and therefore Chelsea are favorites so I agree with Ortega - whats the harm in trying something different? maybe O'Shea/Smith in midfield to fight for the ball leaving Scholes to go forward.

Scholes will probably come in for richardson. Scholes still has life in him, so he's due a good game. Could be worth trying somthing different though..not much to lose so why not go for a central mid of scholes/rooney/smith, and use ronaldo, richardson and van nist as forwards. Maybe dropping ronaldo for Fletcher with the centre mids being quite attack minded.

I'm thinking a united win like when Arsenal came to OT looking for 50 games unbeaten. Could have done with Phil Neville for a game like this mind...

Cant believe how much times have changed. United are the most likely team to lose at home in the prem this weekend according to the bookies!

Lampard to score a free-kick, Terry to then make it 2-0 with header from corner. Drogba then makes it 3, before Ronaldo get's 1 back and Rooney sets up RVN to make final score 3-2.

Chelsea will roll over them. Attacks are evenly matched (2 awesome support strikers/widemen and 1 donkey in the middle, check) and the defences can both be good, and the goalkeepers are both awesome. But as Hansen never seemingly tires of informing us, matches get won in midfield. Essien/Lamps/Makelele vs Fletcher/Smith/Richardson?

This is probably Utd's best chance to beat us; we're hardly plying well at the moment.

But then again, their current form is no better than poor, and so they may miss out.

2-0 to the mighty Blues, I think.

Want a draw and for there to be a few red cards. Yep that'll do. However Chelsea will win it 1-0 with yet another crappy deflected goal.

Man United to get a thrashing...though I think I'll be rooting for United for the first time ever.
