Chelsea have shown that they know how to defend and our brand of tippy tappy is even more denuded than that of Barcelona. We have a punchers chance, of course. IF our invisible men like Walcott and Ramsey(GOD help us) show up. Good that Djorou will be replaced by Kosielny. But this is a game where we really need a tactic, rather than ad infinitum passing in front of the box with Chelsea massed in front of Cech.

Vermaelen needs a massive game as Drogba is on a high currently. the last thing we want to read is headlines restating how Drogba bullied our defenders into a quivering pulp again.

Actually this is a game where we really could have used the adroitness of Diaby, but we all know he`s to all intents and purposes dead.
