after watching the fa cup final, i could not tell if chelsea were holding back or they weren't into hard running.
however it was a tough game for them and their midfield just couldn't/wouldn't click - though their defence was very well organized.
the good news is they don't seem to have quality depth - gnarcho and delap just looked out of place when they came one. also joao pedro seemed to be suffering cramps quite early in the game. caicedo had a frustrating game too and gave away cheap fouls.
bad news is that pedro neto is back and their defence is solid. quite honestly, against Leeds. we could not get more than 2 shots on target with the majority of possession, so predict it to be a hard watch and a scrappy match with many hard battles in the centre of midfield.
statistically its about time for richy to score, us to get a penalty and chelsea to get red cards. so there is still hope.
