Chelsea vs Burnley

[Badboy 1,526]

Would like to see Drogba and Anelka linking up well again in this game, getting them gelling quickly could be a the vital detail in us winning the league this year.

I think thats vital to, anelka and drogba are 2 stikers who can score at any moment.

Ancelotti confermed Yuri will not be making his debut until after the international break along with joe cole!

[NattyBlue 44]

Jesus cole is back soooooooooooon, oh happy days

what about Alex?

[Steve 10,227]

Nothing was mentioned about alex so im not too sure when he will be back.

Heading to the city now, got a 2 hour train ride. Look around the city for a bit than head to the bridge for my first game to take some photos, and watch the lads train

COME ON Chelsea WOOOOO

Just reading up about how we lost to Burnley last year on Penalties at the Carling Cup and seeing who they've beaten recently, I think it's going to be a tough call, but I know we can do it.
