Anyone else fear a Chelsea backlash?


If there is one thing to take out of there mauling by Bradford on Saturday its how there players don't like to be harried and pressed when they have possession.

They were closed down with precise expertise in that match and were forced into untold errors.

If we can replicate that then i think we have a chance of turning them over at the bridge.

I hope BR and the squad have watched the match and taken from it what is needed for tomorrow nights game!

I hate posts like this. No offense, but it's a semi final second leg. Chelsea are a superior team than us. They aren't going to be trying harder or look to destroy us because they embarrassed themselves against Bradford. They'll be trying to win the match no matter what the result of this weekend was - as will we

Hjikle. .sorry no offence. but if you think they will not have even more motivation to come out and show what a class team they are after Saturday then IMO i think you are mistaken.
They will have a game plan and will work even harder to make sure it comes off!
What i was trying to convey is that Chelsea did not seem to enjoy being harried and pressed when in possession.
They made more mistakes in the one game than i have seen them most of the season. And IF we are to beat them we have to take advantage of this and follow a similar plan.

Not sure what Hjikle is objecting to there. Of course after the weekend result Chelsea have a point to prove who wouldn't. would be surprised not to hear terms like backlash and response bla bla fron the Chelsea camp myself.

Liverpool have a point to prove too.

Seriously do you expect Brendan Rodgers to do anything remotely sensible

Balotelli and Lambert up top, Sterling and Sturridge rested, Gerrard at AM, Lucas and Henderson in midfield, Lovren, Toure back in the side at the expense of Sakho, Skrtel, Can and Moreno as WBs. Moreno gives away an early penalty but Lovren scores off a corner and we inevitably win on penalties (4-2). Mignolet dives the wrong way on the first two and saves the last three (including an amazing save with his feet).

How's that for a prediction?

That prediction will lead to multiple strokes and heart attacks amongst the fans.

Think how much confidence Mignolet would have if we beat Chelsea in a penalty shootout!
