Alonso and Courtois hopefully out for the semi final then?

It's crazy with the amount of money United spend their team have Fellaini, Lindgaard and Young in it. Where the hell do all the money go :banghead:

I know, their team is embarrassing considering how much it's cost to assemble.

Their best player is 35..

Alonso out. Wasn't bothered about Courtious' injury but Alonso has been excellent at wing back and perhaps disrupts their shape a bit. .
Both make a difference. Balance and shape gone and suddenly Chelsea have to do what we have done all season

Hopefully the disruption of a couple of injuries and the pressure from us breathing down their necks will get to Chelsea.

Impressive 6 points from Liverpool in two tough away games. Rode their luck a bit with Mignolet making some big saves in those two games.

If Chelsea win today, I think I will start to look more towards securing 2nd than challenging for the title.

He was also flapping at a load of balls in and putting them under pressure... That wasn't talked about though. Vorm is better.

I don't mind Uniteds setup as much. They field a defensive side looking to hit Chelsea on the counter. This is there best chance of winning imo, as they know Chelsea have to aim at winning this, as a 4 og 5 point gap are not good enough for Chelsea.

Also completely reasonable to bench Carrick for this game as he would be dominated by Chelseas midfield.
