Copying the Spurs Way of 'Parking the Bus!!!!!!!'?

Off we go again tomorrow in the Premiership as 'really the most hated team in the country' ready to take on our nemesis team Man City at Stamford Bridge in an effort to take a reality grip on retaining the Premiership title and becoming the second team behind Man Ure to do the same.

However you cannot escape the fact and for whatever your likes or dislikes about Chelsea Football Club there is a massive rumour circling the football world that Chelsea could be deducted league points by the FA on either charge against WBA or Fulham or perhaps EVEN both.

And don't the FA and SAF want Man Ure to win the League cos if they don't, it would be three years without a Premiership League title!!!!

Last season Nemesis City took four points off the Blues from a penalty and a wonderful world class save from David James at the Bridge in a 0-0 draw. Somehow with City's recent form and their major injury problems, it is impossible to see Citeh keeping a clean sheet.

What will be good will be seeing Citeh's manager Stuart Pearce (an England manager in the making) prancing, dancing and coaching his side in the best possible way within his technical area, earpiece in situ and here's hoping that he does to JM what he did to Pardew in midweek, by rushing past him to retrieve the ball and then slapping him on head on his return to his own area. LOL

Chelsea report a full squad available for selection with the exception of Willie G and thankfully Robben who serves the last of his four match ban.

Citeh though have their troubles. Here is a list of their possible absentees. Barton, Cole, Jordan, Reyna, Riera, Sinclair, Siberski, Samaras. Sun Jihal is suspened after his sending off against West Ham in midweek.

So to coin the 'Tottenham Parking the Bus' scenario, expect the 'Bus to be Parked.' Cos Jose thinks it will be. He said "If what we read is the reality, they don’t have many attacking players. If I try to guess their team, I see a lot of defenders - Mills, Richards, Sommeil, Dunne, Distin, Thatcher - and I see Stuart Pearce without a lot of attacking options.

"If my thoughts are not wrong, they will come here very defensive and leaving alone Vassell with the support of somebody else, not the normal 4-4-2 with the attacking spirit they play. But we will try to get the three points because then we can say we are four victories away from being champions."

40 YEARS A BLUE!

COME ON CHELSEA!!
