Team news

According to well placed sources around the forums (FTL and COYS) the team is very similar to the one that beat Chelsea. Chimbonda is injured so Lee will come in at right back with the usual suspects along the rest of the back four. Jenas and Zokora take the middle positions with Lennon and Ghaly as wide men. In recent games they have swapped position to good effect and I expect that to happen again. Up top is Berbatov and Keane, meaning Defoe sits on the bench again.

After last weekends return to normal service, where the chavs were beaten, it is important we push on. A win here puts up top six or so and means the run of form we are getting into is starting to pay dividends after a poor start. A defeat just won't do as it will leave us languishing in mid table and we would have thrown away another chance of making up lost ground. We need to be at the shit or it will cost us in May.

Other news means we have a fantastic cup draw - Southend at home while the scum have to travel away to pool and the chavs go to the geordies. I know what results I want from those two games.

COYS!
