Man Utd Vrs Chelsea: Fernando Torres Starts For Chelsea As Didier Drogba Drops To The Bench

Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti has dropped Didier Drogba for the so-far goal-less Fernando Torres, who will be joined in attack by Florent Malouda and Nicolas Anelka.

It comes after much speculation, as reports were circulating as to whether it would be Torres or Drogba starting for Chelsea, but the Spaniard has been chosen despite his recent poor run of form, with the Blues needing goals to progress.

Manchester United: Van der Sar; O’Shea, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra; Nani, Carrick, Giggs, Park; Hernandez, Rooney.
Subs: Kuszczak, Brown, Berbatov, Smalling, Scholes, Valencia, Gibson.

Chelsea: Cech; Ivanovic, Alex, Terry, A Cole; Ramires, Essien, Lampard; Malouda, Anelka, Torres.
Subs: Turnbull, Benayoun, Drogba, Mikel, Zhirkov, Ferreira, Kalou.
