goals by Lampard and Joe

------------------------------Cech------------------------------

---------PF-------------Essien----JT---------------Brdige-----

------------------------------Diarra----------------------------

-------------------------Lamps----Mikel-----------------------

-------------------------------Joey C.-------------------------

------------------------Sheva-------Drogba------------------

News on Sheva?s injury problems ?

 
Thats a bit Bockwurstian for my likes there Gunther, but then again...it migh well be able to penetrate the Arse defence.

 
Cech

Diarra - Boulahrouz - Terry - Bridge

J. Cole - Lampard - Essien - Robben

Shevchenko - Drogba

Come on Mourinho, just give it a try with 2 wingers and 2 strikers.

 
If Arse comes out to play football, we may score a few goals , if they play like the scouser, it will end up in another dull draw

 
baptista will miss a few sitters, so will adebayor, rosicky might have one otherwise i can't see us scoring so you 'll proabbly win it but since our season has been over for a few months now, i couldn't care less about that game.

 
Arsenal will be up for this one I think. Although they have little to play for their is always pride at stake and they will want to gain some revenge for the League Cup Final.

We really need a good performance to get rid of the cloud hanging over us after the last couple of games. If we can win this game at least it will pick our heads up and ensure the league is still not 100% decided before United visit us next week.

Drogba has been out of the goals a little recently but he has a decent record against Arsenal. Hopefully he can bag a couple. Is Senderos playing ;)

 
nope i think senderos will leave the club as he's suffering of cyganite.

 
What I'm praying for:

------------------Cech

Ferreira - Boulahrouz - Terry - A. Cole

J. Cole -- Lampard -- Essien -- Robben

---------Shevchenko - Drogba

What I'll get:

---------------Cech

Diarra - Essien - Terry - Bridge

---------------Maka

Wright-Phillips - Lampard - J. Cole

------Shevchenko - Drogba

 
nope i think senderos will leave the club as he's suffering of cyganite.

Thats funny. I thought they both just had a case of Caesaritis ;)

Actually I've seen Senderos put in some decent displays for Arsenal but Drogba always seems to walk all over him.

 
Assuming JM persists with the diamond, then putting the pieces into place:

---------------Cech---------------------

Ferreira---Terry--Boulahrouz--Bridge

----------------Makelele

-----------Essien-------Mikel

-----------------J.Cole

-----------Drogba---Kalou

I doubt we'll see Sheva. Give Lampard a rest on the bench and play our form midfielders.

Arsenal's defence is too small to contain Drogba. Neither Toure or Gallas can compete with him in the air. All we need is some decent delivery from set pieces and we'll score a couple. Just let Bridge take them and we'll be fine.

 
Can't believe people are still putting Frank in their starting lines ups. Are you all that blind to the fact that he has been very poor for some time? (Now watch him start and get a brace!!)

I would leave him out, no question and let the likes of Mikel, Diarra, SWP, Joe & robben get decent playing time so they are prepared for the cup final.

 
I would never choose swp over lamps- ever. (okay, they play in different positions, put in the pecking order swp is right at the bottom and lamps at the other end) swp's recent good form... if lamps had that we'd say it was bad form. he was great in the cup semi, good at west ham, strong at home to liverpool and when he actaully got the ball in the away game, he used it well. away to arsenal, I wouldn't choose diarra over him either. but, he needs a rest, no question. despite that, he's still within the top 3 of our most important players.

 
Thats just it Gullit, he's knackered, add to that his phenomenal form of the past 2 seasons, and the dip in form this just shows up more. For someone who isn't playing well, 21 goals this season looks rather good.

Excellent news! With Drogba and Kalou off for part of next season, I'd like to see him and Sahar come through and make some first team appearences.

 
Would be great to see Sinclair get a chance on Sunday. Fully deserved. If the league is decided this weekend I'm sure one or 2 others will get their chance in the last couple of games.

 
OK! At the risk of getting a verbal head kicking here, I feel it may not be a bad idea now to accept the title is gone and rest some of the players who have run themselves into the ground for us in recent months, give Lamps, Drogs & a couple of others a few days off and give some of the youngsters a run out.

I know it's a pride thing against the gooners but surely with the final only a matter of days away now (OK! 14 to be precise!) it would be better to give fresh legs & lungs a chance to impress and restore some enthusiasm to our play in the last couple of league games & make them feel they have a chance of breaking into the first team next season, rather than trotting out already exhausted players chasing a lost cause and then, through having no rest at all, completely collapsing at Wembley and handing Manure the double.

I would quiet happily lose or draw our last 3 league games with this scenario with things as they stand, and then turn up at Wembley for the end of season showpiece with a fully rested refreshed first choice 11 and stuff the feckers, leaving them in no doubt that we will 'ave em! next season.
