In a normal situation, I believe Chelsea won't get more than a
point at Anfield even in present form...
Reason is, it's very difficult to beat Liverpool at Anfield if
they are up for it. And another major point people forget is,
Chelsea have been playing very poorly away from home. They beat
Villa by 7 goals as well and the next weekend they were lucky to
get a win at Old Trafford with a Drogba's offside goal even
though United were tried from their CL match and travelling...
Again they were very fortunate to win Bolton at home
when a Terry hand ball was not punished with a penalty... Again, we
all saw how they were away at Spurs a few days later... They
were totally outplayed away from home... Therefore, tomorrow's
match being another away game... I belief Chelsea will struggle
again if Pool play to their normal standard. And I don't mean any
special level, just their normal level will trouble Chelsea.
And on the Torres thing, I am not sure if its a good thing or a
bad one... Against smaller sides, having Torres is great but
against better sides, I am not too sure there cos if
Pool have him, everything will get through him... and better sides
have better defenders so just mark Torres and everything is shut
out... But without him, their fringe players will get more chances
and also the defenders don't have a priority to mark a certain
player... and a goal could come from anywhere or anyone...
So I belief if Pool are up for this, they won't lose this
match... And the longer it drags on, the chelsea players will get
more nervous and start to play rougher... Anything less than a win
for Chelsea tomorrow would be seen as a big disaster cos to be
fair, United were actually dead where the title was
concern 11 days into April... They were just given a slim chance to
make this one last push...
