    Saw on another site that Bale and Defoe to have fitness tests this morning

    So hope these two are fit and ready for tonight.

    It may Harry's version of smoke & mirrors.

    Very likely

    I'm sure the injuries are genuine, but Harry often talks about doubts, then the player appears out of the smoke 'just like that - :)

    I expect this team

    Friedel

    Walker - Kaboul - King or Gallas - Assou-Ekotto

    Parker - Sandro

    Van der Vaart - Modric - Bale

    Adebayor

    Only if Bale is out do we need to consider going 3-5-2 (IMHO :)

    One (of various) thing(s) that staggers me, is that I've read on various sites, quite a few people wanting to play Pienaar.

    This is a player that has been mercilessly slagged off by many of our 'supporters' (on various sites), yet now some want to chuck in him for our biggest game of the season far.

    Bizarre.

    How strange, a thread about Spurs/Chelsea that isn't overrun with obnoxious knuckle-draggers defending a racist.

    Another great advertisment against multi-board threads...

    The good news is there's no news about Bale.

    Sky Sports News are saying Ade is doubtful as well.

    Ladbrokes are paying 6/4 (@2.50) on the Chelsea win <whistle>

    If they're the mods, what does that say about the rest of their supporters?

    Wait, we're talking about Chelsea fans, aren't we?

    If so, Gallas over Kaboul is a surprise?

    It's on the site.

    A quick zip around the interweb shows they're lining up with: Cech; Bosingwa, Terry, Ivanovic, Cole; Ramires, Mikel, Mereiles, Mata; Sturridge, Drogba

    Terry being selected shows everything wrong with the club, Bosingwa and Mikel could backfire spectacularly - but Drogba starting means we could rue leaving Kaboul on the bench. I'm surprised Andros isn't on the bench, as he'd be the injection of pace that would leave Terry for dead if we needed it.

    Ah, he got back up, and ran it off. Quick, someone tell Gallas to fake an injury so Kab comes on.

    Besides, if 25 years of Spurs support has taught me anything, it's good that misfiring Torres is on the bench.

    Actually, I'm wondering about the bench - both Bassong and Kaboul are on it? Either we're down to the bare bones, or 'Arry knows something about Ledders or Gallas we don't.
