A Pyrrhic victory for Chelsea.

Terry, Ivanovic, Ramires and Meireles suspended for the final.



"If we are victorious in one more battle with the Romans, we shall be utterly ruined."

Pyrrhus of Epirus,

well they showed today that they dont need defenders to get results.

drogba LB of the season, kalou RB of the season

So it's probably gonna be:
--------Drogba
Kalou - Lampard - Mata
-----Essien - Mikel
Cole - Luiz - Cahill - Bosingwa
---------Cech

You know, that's not as bad for Chelsea as it seems at first. The depth is a problem though, as that is assuming all available players are fit. I don't know the prognosis for Cahill and Luiz. If their injuries rule them out, the back four will be in dire straits against either Ronaldo/Benzema/DiMaria or Robben/Ribery/Gomez.

It will be a very similar story tomorrow.

Unless one of the two teams park the bus and allow the other to continuously attack, the chances of yellow cards goes down. Catenaccio, either British, Italian, German or Spanish costs yellow cards.
