[FA Cup] Chelsea vs Portsmouth, the Final
Sabtu, 15 Mei 2010
Kick Off : 21.00 WIB
Venue : New Wembley Stadium


Chelsea vs Portsmouth

Last Pride this season for Pompey, di tengah keterpurukan Pompey musim ini dengan masalah keuangan dan prestasi mereka yang 'sukses' terdegradasi ke championship division dengan menempati slot paling bawah di klasemen EPL musim ini, ternyata David James cs masih punya sesuatu yang bisa jadi the last pride for this season. Sapa sangka anak2x Pompey dengan performa yang ala kadarnya musim ini, ternyata bisa menembus final FA Cup musim ini, meski akhirnya FA menggugurkan hak mereka untuk ikut UEFA league musim depan, rasanya match ini bisa jadi pembuktian buat anak2x Pompey akan harga diri mereka di pentas sepak bola ranah Inggris.

Apakah mereka akan bisa memaksimalkan kesempatan terakhir ini dengan 'mencuri' Trophy FA di Wembley, atau justru seteru mereka yang performanya bagaikan langit dan bumi di musim ini, Chelsea, mampu mebuat Pompey semakin terpuruk.

Apapun, it's a football game, menarik untuk dinanti nih, aksi2x para pemain biru (kebetulan sama2x biru yaa) di stadium New Wembley next saturday.

Pompey facing FA Cup final injury crisis
Soccernet - May 3, 2010


Portsmouth are facing a race against time to get their key men fit for the FA Cup final, with midfielder Richard Hughes the latest player to suffer a fitness setback.

Hughes looked distraught as he hobbled out of Saturday's 3-1 victory over Wolves at Fratton Park with a hamstring problem that will almost certainly rule him out of the trip to Wembley.

Striker Aruna Dindane (groin) and defensive midfielder Aaron Mokoena (calf) were also both replaced at half-time.

With just 12 days to go until the final against Chelsea, they join Tal Ben-Haim (groin), Marc Wilson (hamstring), Ricardo Rocha (thigh), Angelos Basinas (hamstring), Jamie O'Hara (back), Hassan Yebda (thigh) and Nadir Belhadj (hamstring) in a packed treatment room.

Scotland international Hughes, 30, was not selected for the 2008 FA Cup final squad, and now looks set to miss out on Wembley again.

"I am sorry for Richard, because in the last two months he has been very good for us,'' Pompey coach Avram Grant said. "It is a shame. He always gives 100%.''

O'Hara was ineligible to face his parent club Tottenham in the semi-final, but is in line to be fit for the final. The midfielder was at Fratton Park to collect what was a clean sweep of Pompey's player-of-the-season awards.

While the 23-year-old is unlikely to be staying on to play for the club in the Championship, O'Hara feels his time on the south coast was well spent.

"This club has a place in my heart,'' O'Hara told the Portsmouth News. "I will never forget the times I have had here. I have worked hard this season, everyone has been absolutely fantastic towards me and I have loved every minute of playing.

"It is something you want as a footballer, the adulation, and the fans to recognise how well you are doing. Personally, it is a great achievement to win all these awards.

"It's been amazing for me to come down here and play such a fantastic part and I am sure the club will be back in the Premier League soon.''

Whether or not Grant remains in charge for that battle remains to be seen, as the Israeli - linked with a switch to West Ham - seeks assurances over the financial backing and whether they can come out of administration.

Cheshire-based property tycoon Rob Lloyd is fronting a consortium, with a formal bid reportedly planned ahead of the creditors' meeting at Fratton Park on Thursday. However, Pompey's administrator Andrew Andronikou revealed talks had not made much progress.

"If nothing tangible has happened in two months, you start to have doubts about whether the offer is real or they have the ability to take it forward,'' Andronikou said. "Until they say to us that they are stepping down or taking it forward, I have nothing further to add.''

Chelsea Tanpa Mikel di Final Piala FA
KOMPAS,com - 7/5/2010 | 03:43 WIB



LONDON, Midfileder Chelsea, John Obi Mikel, dipastikan absen membela timnya saat menghadapi Wigan Athletic di ajang Premier League dan melawan Portsmouth di final Piala FA. Pemain asal Nigeria itu sedang dalam masa penyembuhan pasca operasi pada lututnya.

Mikel mengalami cedera lutut ketika membantu "The Blues" mengalahkan Bolton Wanderers bulan lalu. Sejak itu, ia telah kehilangan tiga pertandingan bersama Chelsea. Awalnya, ia diprediksi akan kembali saat melawan Wigan. Namun, cederanya lebih parah dari yang diprediksi dan ia terpaksa melakukan operasi guna mempercepat proses penyembuhannya.

"John Obi Mikel telah melakukan operasi pada lututnya. Ia takkan bermain di partai terakhir Premier League melawan Wigan, Minggu (9/5/2010), dan di final Piala FA, Sabtu (15/5/2010). Operasi ini dilakukan karena cedera yang ia peroleh akibat pelanggaran pemain Bolton, Kevin Davies, bulan lalu," tertulis di pernyataan situs resmi Chelsea.

Dengan absennya Mikel dan sebelumnya Michael Essien juga telah absen. Gelandang serang Chelsea, Michael Ballack, terpaksa dikorbankan Carlo Ancelotti bermain sebagai jangkar di lini tengah "The Blues".

Mikel sendiri saat ini sedang berlomba-lomba dengan waktu agar bisa sembuh dan fit seratus persen guna membela Nigeria di Piala Dunia 2010 Afrika Selatan bulan depan.
