Villa v Bradford Chelsea v Swansea second game at the liberty which is the only good point, a bit gutted to be honest
Already being written off by the so called 'experts'! Listening to them, us and Bradford may as well not turn up for the semi's. Well am gonna stick my neck out and say Swansea v Bradford final! Take that 'experts'!
Not sure, it will sound really big headed but our draw looks like it should be the final !! no direspect to Bradford and Villa but i think alot of neutrals would like to see us play chelsea in the final. Bradford and villa are more workman like in their approach and if we make the final we are playing the exact type of team we cant play against !! possible with that miserable ****er Lambert in the other dug out plotting our downfall!!..
A swans v bradford final would be amazing ! but embarassing for us if we lost ! argh!! at least the players know they need to be 100% on their game ,unlike the boro game the other night. Is David Villa available for the final ?? i dont beleive he is cup tied..
I didn't want to be drawn against Villa as they are starting to put it together and we all know what Lambert does against Swansea. I didn't want to be drawn against Bradford as they will fight like dogs and would have been the ultimate banana skin. I didn't want to be drawn against Chelsea as they are the European champions. A bye through to the final would have been nice.
If we are to win the cup then we would expect to have to beat Chelsea at some point, I feel 2 legs suits us better than meeting them in the final! Bring it on!
Bring it on. We would have to beat them sooner or later to win it. Let's do 'em over two legs and get it over with.
Gutted to be playing Chelsea? That made me laugh. I thought all teams/fans wanted these big games. Fantastic draw. Much better than playing Bradford.
I'd much prefer Chelsea in the final. We can beat anyone on our day, but with 2 legs Chelsea will have another day to put it right. Also, if we had lost to Chelsea in the final we still would have achieved European football. For me Chelsea are the best team in the Premier right now. Against the other 2 teams our quality would have told over 2 legs I feel. We can still do it but it pisses me off that we don't have much luck, we're always made to work our bollocks off for everything....and it's Lambert's team who effectively get a bye into the final. Don't buy this "Bradford will be just as tough" stuff. I would put all my money on it that Lambert and the Villa players and staff were literally punching the air when that draw came out. It's in their hands. Whereas if Chelsea play very well there will be literally nothing we can do to stop them. They've got world class players everywhere.
Yep agree let's get chelski out of the way first! As pointed out we will have to check that anyone that's brought in , in January, aren't cup tied that could blow things with Iniesta as well damn!
Chelsea will want this cup as its the only one left that they can get.... apart from the title and man utd will get that... I don't think we are good enough in all honesty to beat them at their place and that is where the game will be won.. they might as well etch chelsea's name on the cup now as far as im concerned...
Rafa is gonna want a trophy so this looks like Chelsea's cup. The plus side being that they are more open and expansive than before so that will suit us better.
Lets not bother then, on our day we're as good as most http://www.fileswap.com/dl/mEewBjvAMX/Swansea_City_vs._West_Brom_11-28-2012_1st_Half.flv.html
please log in to view this image ...This is on the money, and exactly how I see it, if anyone is going to stick it to Chelski, it's us! We have always raised our game, to knock the top dogs, so I'm very happy with this draw, and as I do not like Beni, I would think that Laudrup should have no trouble doing a number on him. So am I happy? You bet I am!.................... please log in to view this image please log in to view this image please log in to view this image
one thing i do agree with is we have two bites at chelsea and i would rather play them at their place first and try and get a draw and beat them at the liberty if we can get our short passing with triangles back. I think the draw is perfect for us as we have to play them anyway and a one off at wembley then i cant see chelsea losing there, this way we have a chance....we can beat villa or bradford at wembley....i think...
