    Backing Chelsea today. Theyre nearly 1.9. This is the same price as they were versus man united in S bridge, With united being alot stronger than arsenal

    Also backing the unders 2.5 goals. Think it shoud be about 1.85 - 1.9. we're getn over evens on it

      I like the bet on Chelsea obviously but i think there will be lots of goals in this game. Definately more than 2.5.

        I would lean towards the overs myself today in the Chelsea game.

          Birmingham at 1.92 have to be the bet of the week along with the 3.8 on a red card in the Merseyside deby. Not touching the Chelsea game.

            This is a very hard one to call. Both teams certainly know where the goal is, but you have to imagine that Wenger, for all his bluster, will tell his team to go out and play for a draw; my reasoning being that Chelsea have more players able to take advantage of a counter-attack opportunity than Arsenal do.

            Arsenal have, more or less, zero depth in defence, whilst Chelsea can launch attacks from anywhere. Were this a full squad game I might lean towards an Arsenal victory, but with the injuries they've incurred in recent times I can't see past a Chelsea win. The question then is whether they'll be happy with holding onto a 1-0 lead or not...

                You see i dont think Arsenal have this mindset in their team, I really believe Arsenal will score as they are an attacking side even if they are getting beaten.....this is the only way they know to play, the pretty passing football is easy on the eye but their back 4 plus keeper leave a lot to be desired. Just look at the game against United for the example the gaps they leave at the back will be exploited by good teams.

                Chelsea have been poor by their own standards in the past two games but this is one of those games that everyone will be up for especially with United going top yesterday and as you say Chelsea are capable of scoring from anywhere. I can see the overs obliging in this one, should be an open game.

                      had to try and grind back after the fun bets losing at the weekend.
                      I had a roma/brest/man city treble i was sure would come in for €440 but man city turned out to be an epic fail!
                      had so many failed bets this weekend, leeds/nottingham forrest/norwich

                      Had chelsea to win and drogs to score first which made the dent not too horrible. Need a nice win next weekend for breakevenness now plz



                      this week sucks!
                      Go big or go homeless.

                        Next England Captain - anyone know when this is going to be announced - Media all say that Rio has gotten it but one can still back him on betfair at 1/4 - which is free money.

                        Comment


                          The markets are for who goes to Safferland as team captain. Rio is team captain by default now since he's vice captain.

                          Capello appointed a captain, vice, and 3rd in command when he became manager - he's already stated that that will not change.

                          I would be inclined to LAY Rio at the prices quoted on Betfair since his injury record means he may well not even make the plane.

                              It gives the date the market closes - which happens to be the beginning of the WC. QED


                              Quoth Betfair:

                              Which player will be captain for England against USA on June 12th 2010?

                              This market will be settled on whoever is captain at the start of the match.The market will be suspended at kick off. Should this match be postponed by more than 3 days, all bets will be void. Other players on request. .

                                I'll lay odds of 3/5 on Colchester tonight in League One... (4/7 widely available so you're gaining a few points)

                                Wagering my €30 to some hardy buck's €50.

                                Transfers via Boyle are preferrable, but we can arrange other methods if need be.

                                This bet stands until 19:30pm or until taken.

                                          Worth laying considering theres every chance Rio will be injured.

                                            Already considered Bohsman. Shall be wading in deepish, should the bankroll allow, in the coming weeks. Rooney would be the likely replacement too IMO. Gerrard too much of a thug for Capello.

                                              Gerrard is third choice, Capello said he won't be changing it, if Rio doesn't go it WILL be Gerrard

                                                Well, I know the pecking order right? But I wonder would Capello see a rethink due should Rio fail to make the trip?

                                                He's stripped Terry of his position because he's scum, essentially, and I doubt even the Liverpool fans here could stand up for how their midfield general knuckledragger conducts his affairs off the pitch...

                                                Actually, in that context David James is a shoe-in!

                                                      I agree with you aswell I just hoped that portsmouth might have been overpriced, I think they have a good shout tonight but 7/5 is a bit skinny.

They've been playing the same 11 the last 12 games and that's bound to have an effect u need a squad in the priemiership top half. I think I might keep awAy from them 2night, but interested 2 see how it pans out good luck with the bet.
