I'll second that...and with a different result too.

Touchy sod! As a neutral I want a bloody good game but they will be desperate not to lose to each other that i think it will be a quiet game.

That's one of the reasons I wanted a Man U / Liverpool final.
I don't think either set of fans would accept anything less than going for it flat out which would have made a fantastic game to watch.
With it being Chelsea you just know both teams will just pack the midfield and hope that one stroke of genius or a mistake will win the game.

I don't think Ferguson will try the same trick he tried to pull at Stamford Bridge when he played 2 banks of 4 behind the ball.
It backfired terribly. He should stick to how United have played for most of the season in the Premier...take the game to Chelsea and let them worry about us.
My biggest fear is if he plays Giggs from the start.

@Lee...I'm hoping it will be a more open game too.
And I won't be drawn on a prediction...I'm a fuckin jinx on these boards.
Truth is I'm bricking it. Everytime someone mentions the game my stomach turns over. Just the sound of the Champions League opening theme tune will have me either throwing up or pissing my pants.
