Arsene stares down Chelsea. But are they intimidated?
The cause.. BPL Matches this week. SeriouslY! Can anyone imagine watching Stoke v Blackburn and going "WA!!!". All the games this BPL weekend have one thing in common. Everyone (except maybe West Ham) really needs to win. Coupled with less than impressive teams. They will surely cancel themselves out. Pure focus and mistakes will be punished. However the pressure isnt on full swing. A win today doesn mean that a draw next week will help.Every game changes things. The incentives will only become clearer in 2 weeks.
As the smaller teams like Stoke,Man City(Yup! Sheikh it boys! smalll...), and West Brom play BPL or wait for the big boys.. THE FA CUP gets dramatic
My O MY! The best cure for sleeping in all the BPL matches on Saturday..
CHELSEA v ARSENAL- Arsenal the cup side. As I said before in previous rounds this boys want the cup double and the forgotten giants clawed their way back initially and are now taking big strides. Doing magnificently on all cup fronts. They are the form team at the moment especially with their defensive problem childs finally coming on well. Chelsea the ever strong finishers. Through the years we have seen how CHelsea always end the season a different team from how they started. Why? I would say maybe new signings,manager changes,Drogba's love for Mourinho etc.. But they once again have the FA cup in sight and will be hungry for it.They have to solve their defensive frailties but attacking wise expect Drogba to be a handful and the midfield battle will have to be fought harder from this Chelsea team to win this.
MAN UTD v EVERTON- The toffees earned this spot. Beating Liverpool was no easy feat. Furthermore they are aching for something for Moyes to have his hands on. Luis Saha will be a good focal point for them. He is a great player when fit and expect Fellaini,Lescott and Timmy Cahill to exploit the shaky (as of recently) Utd defence. Rio will have to stabilize the back four for United and they will need to make their team work. Some rotations by Fergie this season have surprised while some have failed miserably. I expect Scholes to get a game and maybe Rafael may return.Berbatov will hold key as he has been having off days recently and will do well to come back strong here.Do not underestimate Everton because if they show hunger and desire ans ManUtd's players burn out. We could see an upset on the cards. The pressure is on United here. Quadruple? My o My.. What a lot of games..
This week will show us more clearly who are on form and who are not. Will the old Man Utd return? Will Arsenal finally crumble their unbeaten run? Will Chelsea stay strong and not succumb to their defensive lapses.. Only time will tell..
