And this weekend we witness these two strikers in action against each other in Chelsea vs Liverpool.

I think the signing of Luiz particularly will prove a spark of genius if the rave reviews of the guy are anything to go by...2010 Portuguese player of the year, 23 and with a height and build to match Terry's, Luiz could be just the thing Chelsea's back line needed.

As for the front, for both the Kop and Chelsea, I think it's really a matter of how the strikers click. But Chelsea without a doubt will be a stronger side than have been, which makes me wish we had played them at the Bridge in Dec.

I won't be surprised if Liverpool make it to Europa league

L'pool got a really good deal on Torres but did they really have to spend 35m pounds on Andy Carrol? He's a good player but that was just too much for him especially after having spent another 22m on Suarez. I don't think you need to be a L'pool fan to realize that their main problem is at the back....they also needed a good defensive midfielder to fill the gap left by Alonso and Mascherano.

Is tonight the night?

For man-u to either drop points or lose their unbeaten record? In the last 2 games, man-u has won with a single goal margin and has had to come from behind on both occassions. Will they go behind against villa? Will they stop the ascendency of villa? Will they stop Spent Darren?

For Arsenal...who thrashed everton earlier in the season. Everton closed down chelsea very well in the FA cup. Will they shut out the gunners?

For chelsea...sunderland which thrashed them 3-0. Redemption or same medicine? After the lukewarm chelsea play of saturday, the game could end up as a draw if they play the same way.

...I think Chelsea's conduct should be investigated.

Why did they postpone the Manchester United game by more than 24hrs?

The answer is clear...all the same we will march on...19th here we come.

Since, liverpool do not want to lose the joint record, they will 'give-up' the game to chelsea this week and harass man-u when the two teams meet...

I agree with you entirely! And Liverpool's rise begins. BTW that Suarez fellow is both a goaliee and striker all rolled up into one (remember WC?) so it's real value for money!

Andy Caroll 35m? I would rather Ashley young. Liverpool had Crouch but never really used his aerial prowess.

Leo Usiku Villa tutawanyorosha moja kwa nunge! The other results won't matter much!

.....and this season, OT has become a fortress!!!

Not today boss. The goalkeeper, the whole back four and first team strikers all sat out of the Saturday game. I'm sure they are rearing to go. And we are talking about the theatre of dreams!
Not today! Man City will try but will also come out short.

Thrashing, I doubt. Game could go either way. Obviously Arsenal will not want to drop points now so they might squeeze a narrow win.

The pensioners will obviously up their game. No one wants to lose their position on the starting line up - given the new arrivals. Having beaten Chelsea, Sunderland will not expect anything less than a win. This is bound to be a cracker. Will watch 30 minutes of it - the 15 mins before Man U's game start and at half time - rest of the time ni kuchungulia tu!

Maichblak....Man Utd have already dropped 2 pts at the hands of Aston Villa...they seem to be on the rise having won their last 4 matches (including one against Man City). Most of their players are now back from injury, this looks like it will be another draw although I'll wouldn't mind a Villa win.
