Toure is relishing the role of underdog against United after facing Didier Drogba at Wembley this weekend.
''We have fresh players,'' he said. ''We played with a new defence against Villarreal and we did very well. Now we need to get ready for Saturday against Chelsea. We will have to face Drogba, who is always good against us.
''For the Champions League, I think we are not favourites as United are the champions. However, they know we can beat them, so we are looking forward to it. Bring them on.''

Both teams look good in their respective match-ups.

Eboue started yesterday. He had a good game. Is Sagna being rested for Saturday?

Bendtner came on very late. The commentator commented...*"here comes the big Dane Nicklas Bendtner...not everybodys' cuppa tea..."


*(darn right about that).
