Chelsea today

With results above and below going our way yesterday a win at the Bridge could really cement the CL spot and I think we can do it if we can get the tactics right.
I would play Johnson from the start to work with Richards to attack that flank and play Milner instead of the unfit lump in centre mid with tevez on his own up front which should enable us to soak up pressure and break with pace and actually have runners coming from midfield
Hart
Richards Kompany Lescott Kolorov
De Jong. Barry
Johnson Milner. Silva
Tevez

I don't rate Chelsea and don't think we need to park the bus to get a result but aim to get at them

I agree but can't see Bobby starting with either Milner or AJ unfortunately

He won't go attacking. It'll be ultra defensive trying to go for the draw

Hope the owners see this as a season of missed opportunity

the line up looks capable of getting a result at SB, unfortunatelly i dont see Mancini dropping Yaya. The midfield battle will be the most important to win today imo, so much will rely on keeping Lampard and Essien out of the game. I dont see many goals going in today so defensively we need to be solid and Kolorov will be be the week link if bosingwa is given time and space (what is it with City and left backs). Hoping to get a result today and predict 1-0, but would be happy with a point.

Yaya will be in there as he always is.

Don't see Johnson or Milner starting as the two are just returning from injury.

It will be 4-5-1, but there's one spot in midfield I'm not sure who will claim. Silva, De Jong, Barry, Yaya and... ?

According to the BBC, Carlos has had to have a late fitness test before todays game.
