Finally I'll get to watch Boa Morte play against the likes of Carvalho. Here in T-O they've shown every English team play 3 times and not even one with Fulham (who actually have a Canadian on the team.) Anyway Chelsea is in first thanks to Mourinho and Carvalho and now they go up against a Fulham side that is gainning momentum thanks to our Dead Snake who has 5 goals in 11 games. Should be good it's on this Saturday at 10:00 am on Sportsnet.
Sportsnet prefers to show games that involve big name teams like ManU, Chelsea, Arsenal & Liverpool. The only reason they're showing Fulham this week is because they're playing Roman's Soldiers. Yet, they bore us with some crappy Norwich vs Palace games sometimes.
my prediction Fulham-1-Chelsea-2, Mourinho's team on a roll you can call Chelsea - Chelsea portuguese with Mourinho and his assistants, Carvalho, Ferreira, Tiago, and a couple U20 portuguese players
I don't think thats entirely true, cause some weeks none of those teams play. It could be that they play on other days instead of sat but all 3? thats rare. I don't think theres any rhyme or reason why Everton and blackburn have been on so much playing against the likes of charlton or Norwhich (not sure if they actually played eachother but teams of that class) for two out of the three games with one of the big 3 or liverpool playing Portsmouth. All I know is that sportsnet never really pushed for it. BTW I think Fulham probably has the best home jerseys in the EPL
Chelsea is just too strong for Fullham despite Fullham's recent form. I predict Chelsea will win 3-0.
What a great day of Soccer on Saturday 5am Tottenham vs Aresenal 7am Fulham vs Chelsea. 11am Porto vs Gil Vicente 1:30pm = Benfica vs Martimo What a day of soccer.
Not to mention the Bordeax vs PSG game on TV5 at 3:15pm (ontario time)and the womens u-19 tourney at 11pm. Too bad I'll only watch the morning games cause my friend is getting hitched and needs a witness. Funny we worked in Portuguese catering halls for 5-6 years and he just called me today talkin about meet me at city hall and thats it.
I doubt they'll win by 3 goals. Chelsea's style is more of the 1-0 category. Either way, a win is a win.
That is how they were for much of the start to this season. But it seems that recent results show that they have been winning by more than 1-0 scores.
Mourinho has his team firing on all cylinders. It should be an easy win for Chelsea. Although, it would be nice to see Boa Morte score.

only one that i know of. still hes a disspointment. robinho isway better. chelsea needs a second striker maybe pauleta.
Fulham beat Nottingham 4-2 Boa didn't score but was effective From Sky Sports: "Radzinski was on hand to spare Cole's blushes in the 86th minute, when Boa Morte threaded a ball into his feet in the area and he turned a first time shot past Gerrard. Boa Morte and Cole then combined to tee up the Canadian striker's second, which he curled delightfully into the top corner."
I believe was Tiago o second goal or the 3rd of the season, for a defensived midfielder the kid can score,
I have watched a lot o soccer this already. But Chelsea and Mourinho are on fire. They can win 4 trophies this year.
Boa Morte had fun with his "portuguese pals" as the anouncer said numerous times and had me laughin. Chelsea's D was way too much for Fulham although Boa broke through once and drew a yellow off Makalele (I think) just outside the box. I liked how he held the ball away from Ferreira and Tiago at the same time they must of thought they were playing keep away in a NT practice. In a game where Scolari was probably watching, Boa Morte needed atleast a goal to get starting recognition from him and he's probably not gonna get it, especiall after taking out Carvalho (although he did dive).
robben is only good for a period of time hes like a switch on/ off again. he has great feet work and outstanding agility but for what ive seen hes just at the right place at the right time. robben is the man with the plan.
