Mancs v Chelsea: What result is best for us?

[chris71]

Nil nil for me and 44 broken legs,that's all i ask.

[A_S]

The last time a thread came up like this, I said the best thing about a draw is that it is fewer points distributed between our two biggest title challengers. And with luck and in current form we will tear Stoke a new arsehole, which would extend our lead at the top of the table.

 

0-0, 1-1, 2-2, 3-3, hell even 4-4 please.

[emryscb]

a draw i suppose but a chav win wouldn't be to disappointing as I still think whoever finishes ahead of the mancs this year will win the league.

[Code]

I see Chelsea as the main danger for our title challenge, but a draw or a Chelsea win will make me happy.

 

I always want the mancs to lose.

[KevieG]

Chelsea win. Its a no brainer, they are nowhere near as solid as before and will drop further points before they come to Anfield. We need to set some distance between ourselves and United.

Pity Ronaldo didn't shatter his two legs in that car crash.

[JohnnyH]

Draw. Every day of the week. People talking down Chelseas or the Mancs team are nuts. Ronaldo hasn't been great but if he finds his form (which he will) then the Mancs are capable of 10 wins on the trot. Also, Chelsea, while not as good as a few years ago, can easily put on the form.

 

First and by far foremost, we need and must beat Stoke. Once we do that then there is only good news ahead of us on Sunday. There is a silver lining in any result. The least good one would be a Manc win in my opinion, with the best been the draw.

[Guest TK-421]

Provided we beat Stoke a draw will keep them both at a safe distance.

 

A Chelsea win would be alright but it might give them a lot of belief and be a catalyst for them, so I'd rather it was a draw, but anything apart from a Manc win is coolio.

[Catch22]

I am definetely hoping for a Chavs win.

 

Due to the breakdown of fixtures the Mancs are a much bigger threat as they have got their hard away games out of the way whilst Chelsea have done the opposite.

 

Moreover, I still think one of them is likely to actually win it & i would much rather it be the Chavs than the Mancs.

 

I always want the Mancs to lose every game they play unless there is an exceptional reason not to... those reasons are pretty much once-in-a-generation events & this isn't one!

I presume you have a point?

 

Im praying for a draw. I know we will win for sure.

 

Always one isn't there. Just never learn.

 

A draw it is then.

[Xherdan]

Chelsea win for me. I expect Chelsea to drop more points between now and the end of the season, so a manc defeat is defo the way forward.

 

I heard last night that some of the existing Chelsea boys are not happy with Scolari's approach to Deco. Apparently complaining that Joke Hole is being taken off too often and Deco not enough. This is exactly what we want to hear coming out of their camp and exactly why I think they will drop more points than the mancs between now and the end of the season.

Why even bother with that attitude. I'm sure you'll be rooting for them as the season goes on so you don't have to step out of your comfort zone and believe in us.

[Scott_M]

Can't they both lose?

 

Anyway, I'd like a draw. Failing that, a Chelsea win.

 

We must beat Stoke though.

 

I don't want either team to be docked points in a mass brawl, that'll only give them an excuse come May.

The texan asked what a chav is, I googled it and pasted the first thing i found. I could have explained it to him, but that would have required more typing.

[RedinSweden]

Where is the "Game abandoned due to massive brawl and both teams docked 20 points for being cunts" option?

That just happened to be about scousers?

 

Right.

 

We don't have chavs in Liverpool, it's a southern word.

Belief is an act of faith which I have very little time for- what are our actual percentage chances?

 

Our squad is worse than theirs due to the relative financial constraints we work under.

No team has ever won the PL with the 4th highest wage bill.

 

This doesn't mean it will never be achieved (this is akin to a black swan argument. Particularly with the very small sample size of PL seasons, the fact that no-one has seen a black swan doesn't mean none exist).

We have a small chance due to having the best manager in world football in charge; he has produced at least 3 other seemingly impossible acheievements (Tenerife up vs 3 subsequent CL sides, Valencia's 2 titles & obviously Istanbul) so he does make it possible.

 

However being top in Jan means very little- Arse were never going to win the League last year.

 

The PL title betting market has huge depth due to it being a long-run competition & also having such global appeal: hence the market is as good a place as any to check on our unbiased chances & we are still 3rd favourite.

Are you available for parties?

Other examples of 'Black Swans' include; the personal computer, World War I, the September 11, 2001 attacks...oh and the rise of the percentage playing internet forum geek.

[TommyW]

im an idiot, I wanted to vote for Chelsea to win as I think putting a bit of distance between us and the Mancs will help long term and I think we've more chance of three points against Chelsea at home in a couple of weeks than we do of getting 3 at Old Trafford

 

dispite this I clicked on a Man U win.... again, I am an idiot

[dirty_sanchez]

Any result is good for us in some way, but...

 

1. Draw

2. Chelsea win

3. Manc win

 

In that order. I think Chelsea are more likely to drop points than United are.

[aws]

preferably a draw but a chelsea win would be OK

[Section_31]

Chav win.

 

They're more likely to fall apart later on in the season and the early signs of that happening are good, whereas the mancs tend to get stronger as the season progresses - the more damage that can be done to their points total now, the better.

Fine... My mistake for not reading it first... Soooo sorry to have offended your delicate sensibilities.

 

Twat.

Chav isn't just a Southern word.
