Chelsea game vital

according to the ginger prince. Winning would go along way to helpng us to make it four in a row, but i suppose it's just as vital we don't get beat. I am pretty confident that we will do the business to be honest. We seem to have the sign over them at old trafford at the moment.

The telegraph speculate that Rooney may be rested at the weekend before the three games against Bayern and Chelsea after limping away from old trafford at the weekend. Whilst the guardian reckon there is nothing wrong with him and that he will be fit to make the short trip to the Reebok.
If he has got a niggle it may be an idea to leave him on the bench, if we struggle they can always bring him on. If there is nothing wrong with him at all on the other hand he should play.

Ribery should be fit to face United according to Karl-Heinz Rummenigge. I am fairly confident that we will get through this tie, but our defence has to be on top form against Ribbery and Robben. If they had a top class centre forward to go with those two that would be a formidable attack. Fortunately for us the rest of the team doesn't anywhere near approach the level of those two. I fancy Rooney to cause them all sorts of problems at the back.

Max Hastings writes he has never seen the US so split down the middle after Obama's healthcare triumph and puts most of the blame on the republican right. And that's from the ex editor of the Torygraph.

I finished watching the last series of the Shield at the weekend and it didn't disappoint, absolutely brilliant. I always feel a bit empty after the last episode of a great series. I suppose it's because you know that's the last episode you will ever see where you don't know what's going to happen.
