Hi Kayoko, can we not feel a little deja-vu, a couple of years ago a Man U team without Ferdinand, were roundly beaten to Ancelotti?s AC Milan in similar damp, cold autumn conditions, so here we are again with Ferdinand absent and the resent days and weeks United defence has been left struggling. Look at the stats, Sir Alex has field 12 different defences in the last 15 games, including his goal keepers!

Sir Alex just yesterday ? there is no question that they will be a handful, Drogba, for example is a physical challenge for anyone, he is such a massive lad , powerful, a match winner, but we won?t be as open here as we were in Moscow.?

Sir Alex is such a wily old goat, given that the Premier League still has seven months to go, Untied have everything to gain, and Chelsea has so much to loss, a negative result at Stamford Bridge tomorrow will deliver Untied a huge psychological advantage for the rest of the season.

You could well be proved right Kayoko, Chelsea have conceded only one goal at home in the league in the last few matches, and look very strong in recent performances at Stamford Bridge, 13 goals in the last 3 home matches, 3 against Tottenham, and 2 against Liverpool.
Man U have not won at the Stamford Bridge since a 3-0 win in April 2002 when Paul Scholes, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer all scored.

This was the second match I attended with Dad, I was eleven and I noticed how upset Dad was after the Match he hardly spoke, his eyes were red and tearful, his mates to and there was this huge post mortem of the Match in the Car on the way home, real emotions you know, I was hooked from that moment on.

However I cannot afford the season ticket anymore, and the match days costs are eye wateringly expensive.

Yes AC Milan and Real Madrid will now face a monumental task to qualify for the next stage of the Champions League after a the 1-1 draw at the San Siro. The German referee Felix Brych had no hesitation in pointing to the spot much to the total bemusement of Real, with Ronaldinho smashing the ball past Iker Casillas. It defies belief what offence Milan's Alexandre Pato did commit he had the ball in the net just before half time but the 'goal' was then controversially ruled out for what appears to be a foul by Brazilian, yes truly an astonishing call!!


Wolves are looking for their first win against in-form Arsenal for 30 years, Wolves have not beaten Arsenal since a 3-2 win at Highbury in 1979. Their last win at home to the Gunners was 1-0 in 1978.

Looks like you will be pulling your feet up Kayoko today, while I will be having a sleepless night.
