Giant step towards the tittle tonight.

no surprise they are the image of their manager ,,, I never liked him even when he played for US

Even our players at the time say that they never felt he was really part of the team. Not directly, but I've heard Wise and Gus imply it on a couple of occasions in interviews with CTV.

Huge game, not only for the points but for the confidence after the last two result away from home. I just hope Hazard will be fine otherwise it would make a big black mark on today. Freaking dirty bastards. It's football ffs, not rugby.

[zolayes 14,489]

that was prob our BEST result so far and the strongest message we have sent out to the rest ..

[Madmax 9,219]

I really, really hope Bardsley breaks his leg. Absolute Grade A cunt.

[robdog 2,084]

Excellent result. Stoke played like a top 4 side against us tho...

they are a physical bunch but CFC's class rose above them. I can see The Potters finish in an Europa spot this season.

Away win at Stoke is a mark of champions. I also thought we strolled alone without difficulties.

1. Matic was a true monster today.

2. Even Mike played well

3. The industry of Costa is amazing

4. How solid was our defence.

Merry Christmas everyone ho..ho..ho

he was MANURE through a nd through

Diego Costa v Hughes was quite funny. Sparky looked terrified, Costa angry as always. You just don't mess up with him.

I sometimes think that Costa just looks angry but he actually controls himself very well. He provokes everyone and they get yellows lol

Fabregas 16th assist. Another from a setpiece. Stoke couldn't park the bus after that.

He and Matic are our master players. If costa gets his goalscoring form back, we'll be smashing teams like early in the season.

Such a shame that Costa did not convert that beautiful pass from Fabregas in the first half. That should be another assist to his name.

[Azpinator 2,325]

When it comes to cunts and dickheads, Stoke City always delivers. That twat Bardsley should be punished for his "football" in the 1st half.

I hope this is only the beginning of Matic, what a player!

went for costa....battled all night long even tho they kicked several shades of shit outta him...he never shirked a tackle once, they spent all night trying to get a reaction and the ref never helped once..................matic a monster, as has been said.... and Hazard put the fear in them every time he got the ball....................hard fought and a great win

stoke play like that every game and they will cause a lot of teams trouble.

09/10 with Inter Milan

08/09 with Inter Milan

05/06 with Chelsea

04/05 with Chelsea

03/04 with Porto

02/03 with Porto

and won the league at the end of each of these seasons!

Matic is amazing, hazard amazing defense was never in serious danger. Mikel is excellent at doing he's job. Great win, very happy that this win makes me. Next west ham, possibly without hazard??

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Matic and Mikel had SIXTEEN successful tackles between them!

That's just got to be the highest for a midfield duo this season!
