CHELSEA A TOUGH PROPOSITION AGAIN UNDER DI MATTEO

Friends Of Liverpool

It looks like Chelsea are on the rise again, beating Barcelona 1-0 at the Bridge with diving Didier Drogba scoring the only goal of the game on 46mins.

Roberto Di Matteo, the Interim-Manager has galvanized the Chelsea team, reinstalling the established old guard of Drogba, Lampard, Terry & co.

It certainly seemed to have worked as Matteo’s Chelsea have won 9 of their last 12 games under the new  Manager, accumulating 57 points, 2 behind Newcastle United & Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League.

But from a Liverpool point of view I want them to play badly against us in the FA Cup Final on 5th May, we will need to play at our very best to defeat them at Wembley as they are firing again.

Given a choice between beating them in the FA Cup Final and losing to them in the Premier League the following Tuesday, I would pick the FA Cup Final win, maybe we can beat them twice, that would be nice!
