UlagueKey points: Sneijder pressure on Mikel and transition game, Malouda and Zhirkov vs. Maicon and Zanetti, Eto'o adding width on the right side, which is probably the defensively weaker spot of Chelsea and stretching the defense, Samuel or Lucio and Motta against Drogba

ZolaThis is going to be such an interesting game. Mourinho knows Chelsea like the back of his hand. On the other hand Ancelotti knows ins and outs of Italian football.
I really don't know what to expect from this game.

UlagueExcept of Barca-Chelsea games, this is to me the most interesting 2nd round game of the past 10 years. I really can't wait for the games to happen. Somehow Mou always manages to get the interesting games in CL.

FeriAtsInter has played a better part of the 90 minutes with 9 men against Sampdoria today. They had to spend a lot more effort than they normally would. I am sure Ancelotti is looking into exploiting this.

hchoInter opened with a shocker, but since then it's been all Chelsea. The crowd sounds very hostile, it must be about Ancelotti.

MontyMourinho has drawn a few comparisons to Helenio Herrera in his dealings with the press, forging of a team unit etc. Now is the time to prove it. Herrera would get at least a draw out of this game so help him God. It's up to Mourinho, probably to surprise Chelsea by frustrating them in a way they're not expecting. The 4-3-3 system worked effectively at the end of the first leg in cancelling out Chelsea's overlapping full-backs, not to mention giving Maicon the chance to run at said unprotected left full back.

Billions - HereCome on stamford bridge. Lets do to Inter what Arsnel done to Porto and what Man U done to AC milan.
