How can you miss what you've never had. He's been out for ages, worse than Ledley King.

Your real loss is Ferdinand, who obviously has major back problems.

Got a ticket for Anfield tonight.

In my opnion it can go one of three ways. Big Liverpool win, 0-0 draw, or narrow Chelsea win.

Speaking of the back four, Rio and Evans will both be missing against Sunderland.

Lucky git.............Can i have it

Why would you want it?

It will be a nauseatingly dull game of football.

Never had him? He was outstanding last season.

Maybe for some people but not for Liverpool and chelski fans i think its gonna be another good game like last years second leg with a liverpool win this time though .

Hopefully Porto will get the result they need.

Urgh.

It will be about 1/250th as entertaining as the match at OT last night.

Scholes has been on a downward spiral for a number of months now, it's quite embarrassing to see actually. Some of his passing was woeful.

I would have much preferred to see Fletcher and Carrick start in the middle with Ronaldo and Giggs/Nani outwide.

O'Shea has been shocking just recently, I really do hope we get Rafael back quickly. Ferdinand's 80 year old back problems are also a major worry.

Porto were really good, I'm quietly confident of getting a victory in Portugal.
