pie-eater 207 Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 How much of this is true I don't know, but Quote: Chelsea's Ashley Cole is a major doubt for tonight's Champions League Final with Manchester United after he was injured by an horrific double-footed challenge from team-mate Claude Makelele in training last night. With United preparing to throw Carlos Tevez into a three-man strikeforce with Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney, Chelsea left-back Cole was scythed down by Makelele 10 minutes into a practice match at the Luzhniki Stadium, the venue for tonight's final. The challenge would have earned a red card in a proper match. Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Change of plan. Going out at 10pm tonight, getting back before the game and watching it - so no sleep tonight. Sleep is for tomorrow, which I've got off as a holiday hangover. Come on United!! Link to post Share on other sites
bobby12 0 Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Predictions and Hopes Prediction: Man Utd 0 - 0 Chelsea (man utd win 4-2 on pens) Hope: Man Utd 4 - 5 Chelsea I actually cant work out who I hate least. My feeling is Chelsea will come and go, so I guess I prefer them to win it. Man Utd are Liverpools main rival for best team in the UK (historically). Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 There is no contest. Chelsea winning this would be hard to take. I hope United smash then 3-0, but that is probably unlikely. I hope it really doesn't go to penalties. Link to post Share on other sites

BagOfCrisps 24 Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 I want more goals than that. I want neither to win. (I think I said that before). So, 4-4 rollercoaster ride and no winner please. Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted May 22, 2008 Author Share Posted May 22, 2008 How can you choose? Most scousers will be 'cheering on' (in a manner of speaking) Chelsea through a hatred of ManYoo. On the quiet I don't hate them and I do Chelsea so I am hoping Chelsea lose. Hope it is a good open attacking game not some boring game of chess on (patchy just laid) grass.

NoFakie 45 Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 I can't see they're being many goals, but I hope there are. It's the biggest game in English football since 1966. And ironically no Liverpool That said, apparently neither team has sold all its tickets and you can get them at face value. They only get 21,000 each as well. Any touts hoovering them up from foreign FAs will have been hammered. Link to post Share on other sites
