We're obviously seen as favourites for the cup. But beyond that, who knows? I can't say that i've EVER seen Monterrey play before, and Corinthians hardly more than that.
Maybe we'll show up and be outclassed.

------------------------
That would be embarrassing. You can't afford to be outclassed.
Chelsea HAVE to win this trophy IMO.
Agree wholeheartedly, also fairly confident that we will win it. It will be fascinating to see how Monterrey match up.
Win this, Carling Cup and finish top 4 would be a good season for this new Chelsea team. Europa and Fa Cup would be a bonus.
Push on next year, with a striker and a midfielder and the squad is nearly complete.
Also you need a good manager in charge (keep Rafa?). Pep is overrated and if he goes Chelsea, I have no doubt in my mind that its gonna go up in smoke. You may secure 4th again no problem, but your title challenge will be over by christmas (once again).

50/50???????????????????????
What do this Monterray side have in thier armoury to make it evens?
The element of surprise, no weight of expectation, probably more will to win unless we are seriously up for it.
TCP you're so funny..
TCW, it seems like everyone has more will to win than Chelsea these days .
Not Sunderland or FC Nordsjaelland
I think we're in a slight period of apathy as a club - not having a target like the PL or CL is bad for us.
Those two clubs are rubbish.
Lets see how Chelsea fare against the likes of Everton.
Well the players had the PL and CL as a target earlier on and threw it away for some strange reason.
Rafa disagrees we are out of the League title race
Having an average age of 16 and a squad size of 12 isn't a strange reason.
I'm talking about Chelsea FC first team TCW, the Champions of Europe, not Chelsea's next Gen squad
Me too
On a serious note, i've never thought that we will contend either the league or CL this season - my target (and expectation) is 2-3 trophies from FA, COCup, Community Shield, Super Cup, CWC and comfortable 3rd. Mind you I did expect us to get to the knockouts of the CL too.
Thats a fair expectation.
2 finals and 2 losses. Lets hope its not 3 out of 3.
Well in all fairness we should be putting both these teams to the sword. Corinthians have just come off a very poor league run finishing mid table and tbh they are 50/50 as the Egyptian team looks pretty strong.
I just hope it's not a case of Mike Basset
"we're 2 nil down to the bl00dy mexicans!!!!"
what have the bookies got us down for in the farce comp...?
*this farce comp...
which it is frankly....
