Arsenal will probably win. They have the experience, which Chelsea lack. Who are you btw, GoReds?

I think it's going to be Chelsea as well. A very deep squad.

Having said that, despite Mourinho's confidence, he could be in for a major shock if he persists with his current mentality. He wants to win every match and every trophy by throwing in his best players in every game. That is to be applauded but if he is not careful, he is going to tire his best players out before the season is even half way through.

I was very surprised to see he played with his first team players against Porto, in a game he didn't have to win. This was a few days before the match with Arsenal. Surely he could have rested them and who knows, he could have won the Arsenal match.

Mourinho seems to think that this is the Portugese league, where all you have to do to become champions is beat two other major teams. In England every game is a tough contest. Come February or March when he needs his players to be fresh, he could find out a few harsh realities about the hard life in English football. :wink:

I think Chelsea already have their best players injured. They have only 16 fit players at the moment, whereas Sir Alex was able to give Christmas off to Ronaldo and Heinze! I see what you mean.

15 games left... It is Chelsea's title to lose, but it has been lost before. I will be happy if we can stop them from winning more than the Prem.

Hey Larry,

Good to see you.

Well Juve will do their best to stop them in the CL; if equally hot Barca doesn't first.

Hi back at you.

I'm sure Juve will be happy to beat them, if they get that far :lol:
