I was glad that Chelsea won against Middlesbrough because if they had another draw Mourinho would be frustrated and then Chelsea would be really eager to beat us at home, now things might be a bit different.

So if we don't beat Norwich we will be all fired up against Chelsea then? Now what...?

Honestly speaking, I am worried by our defensive lapses at set peices, especially against a team like Chelsea.

Drogba is good at harrassing defenders and getting free kicks. They have Drogba, John Terry, and perhaps Lampard, who can nick free headers to punish us and then defend for their lives. Their 'keeper is much better than Dudek, and their defence is much better at soaking up the pressre.

This will be a true test for us. On current form, their defense is better than ours, even if you exclude the comparison between Dudek and their 'keeper.

one thing for sure, if we play against chelsea like we did against the scums...............

we have to be on the top of our game. Garcia played well on the right. Baros & Cisse looked dangerous (although they could not understand wat the under was doing). So we should keep the same formation with josemi for finnan.

I hope Garcia has learnt a few things about physical attention in the EPL after the manure match. Rio Ferdinand singled him out as a threat and dished him special attention with crunching tackles which I think unsettled Garcia from the beginning of the match.

Expect a similar treatment from John Terry and co. for a creative threat like him.
