Chelsea v Arsenal - Carling Cup Final

Well the weekend hasn't got off to the best start. ManUre has just beaten Fulham after being a goal down, with Ronaldo scoring the winner in the 88th minute.

So the Champions are nine points behind and have to win the game in hand against Man City in two weeks time - but thats for another day.

What a week Chelsea have had. Beating Norwich in the Cup, drawing Tottenham in the next round, drawing with Porto in the Champions League and the 'kids' that are Jose and Wenger starting the off the field mind games, typical in the build up to a mjor cup meeting between the two sides.

As for the game itself. Well there is no John Terry. Robben looks like he will be fit and Essien will start as centre-half as he has done so magnificently in recent months.

I am not going to the game. Simply because I just can't be bothered to put up with all the difficulties of travelling to Wales along with 70,000 plus other people.

So if you are going to the game - then I wish you a safe journey.
