Spoken like a natural born killer But I have to agree with you, he's a scumbag

We didn't look like scoring. Torres kept kicking the ball up Villa defenders arses instead of passing. Apart from that Villa were very strong especially with that new guy Foy bossing the midfield. He was outstanding for them. He closed down Willian with a red card for an innocuous foul, but he left the Villa left back Bennet on when he synically took down Ramires when going through. Also Vlaar hacked down Schurrle and only got a Yellow !!! And then to send off Mourinho!!!!!!!!! How we hate playing against any team with Chris Foy in it. We simply cannot beat this guy, he rules the pitch. Pure class he is. BASTARD He has to be a Citeh fan, or probably anyone except Chelsea. HEADS UP GUYS, WE CAN STILL DO THIS....AND EVEN IF WE DONT, WE'VE HAD A GREAT SEASON (SO FAR )

Bring back the home jersey from the 1970 cup final :blue scalf: Simple, clean, unsophisticated, but oozing pure class. Lets be the forerunners in bringing back retro kits. And lets have it in the heavy cotton material too Oops, just let my age out now,

I love to see us playing the Spuds :blue scalf: Its a "nailed on" 4 to 6 points every season. I hope they never get relegated :confused: Where else are we gonna get such handy points Seriously though, after selling Bale and "reinvesting" all the proceeds of the deal in new players, I think they really wasted it all as they are worse than they have been for years. How many times have they been spanked by 4 or 5 goals this season ?? Too many if your a Yid and I think United will catch them for the Europa spot, leaving them having to win the Europa Cup this year. A poor return on a vast outlay........................Oh, and their manager is crap too

This could potentially be a banana skin for us as Villa have been tough for us to beat at Villa Park. We will need to come out of the traps a bit quicker than we did in our last two games and score early, as I feel the longer this game goes on without us scoring will give Villa confidence (I suppose that's obvious ) and they will smell blood. I wouldn't rotate the team and I'd start the team that started the second half against the Spuds. Maybe bring Willian in for Shurrle for his speed on the counter. As for Benteke ?? I think Terry and Cahill have enough about them to deal with him. It's from set plays that I feel they could damage us, it's the only place we have been weak lately. City play earlier in the day and can cut the gap to 6 points between us and them, but if we win I feel it will be a little blow to their confidence if we kick on again. And the pressure will really be cranked up on them to deliver. The finish line is in sight and this, in my opinion, would be a greater achievement than the last three Premiership titles won, because this is still a team in transition.

As you say, Pool have spent a shit load of cash.....and now they are in trouble with the new Finincial Fair Play rules. This could see them barred from playing in Europe..This was on Sky Sports this evening. So they're the ones splashing the cash and not balancing the books, not us or Citeh !!!!!!!!!

I have been a fan since Chelsea played Leeds in the 1970 cup Final. My Dad was a big Leeds fan at the time, so that made my mind up (well that and the fantastic blue jersey and the shorts with the single white stripe....Class kit) I had to be Chelsea, and boy am I glad. Never looked back and loved every minute !!!!!!

I was 11 years old and a Chelsea "nutcase" already. Osgood was "GOD" and what a team we had back then. Happy memories........Cheers mate (for making me feel reallllllly old !!!!!!!!!

We really need 3 points here and also, as "Bluesmaster" stated, we need to sort ourselves out from set pieces. But overall, What a season we are having!! If i had said last October that, in March we would be 4 points ahead with the possibility of making it 7, most people would say that I was spending too much time on the hallucinogens !!! but wouldn't it be great ????? I dont give a rats arse if Citeh have 2 or 3 games in hand, they still have to win them, and Liverpool have now moved into the equation too. But first off lets beat the Yids (not allowed to call them that any more am I ? ) and put some daylight between ourselves and the pack, and really smash Spurs chance of European football next season after all the dosh they spent. As Kevin Keegan once said " I would love it if we beat them, just Love it"!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So COM'N YOU BLUES

Phew !!!!! I think we used another "Get of of jail free" card today. Once again Ramires wins us a free kick in the dying minutes and we score. Up until then we huffed and puffed. But a win is a win so well done guys, and a clean sheet to boot.

Hate having to play Everton, they have a habit of taking points away from the Bridge. And I now feel Mourinho has done the opposite of what he wanted to do, and has put pressure on us to win following his outbursts about our Premiership rivals and associated managers. I'm not saying I disagree with what he said, but it has put the onus on Chelsea to win, and win well. Otherwise Wanker Wenger and Pellethead Pelligrini will have the laugh at our expense. Little horse with a little manager and all that shit. So lets shut them up and win well. Hazard my son, this is your time :blue scalf:

Ok. Mourino shook the hornets nest and they really stung back tonight. They learned to mark tight and high up the field, and they never really let us play. So., although we were complete shite, you have to give City credit for their game plan. Now lets move on and win the League :blue scalf:

Ok 1-1 with West Brom and we played shit. Then its a good result !!!!!!! We have no God-given right to think we can roll over every team in the league just cause we're top. Teams love knocking the top team off the summit. We just have to work that little bit harder and kill off games a little earlier. I never expected to be top of the league at this stage of the season so its a bonus, so lets just enjoy the rest of the season, we are doing great. But please..........Leave Mikel at home, he's a liability (in my humble opinion)

West Brom need points, which is good news for us, because it means they wont "park the bus". They need the victory. So hopefully it will mean a fairly open game , and if thats the case we will win, no worries. Draw them on to us and catch them on the break. Thats what Chelsea excel at. If we win its four points clear and the others are playing catch-up. We can do this. West Brom are not the same side as the one that came so close to beating us at the Bridge, and neither are we. Chelsea are not a far more settled and balanced side than the one that played that day. This game will be a good test of our resolve and another 3 points would bring a superb haul over the past 8 days from 3 tough matches.

It is a few seasons since I have felt the pride I now feel for Chelsea. Maybe pride is not the right word, but sitting watching this match today threw me back to Mourinho's last championship winning season. We were just fucking awesome, and Eden Hazard ? what a player. Not just best in the league but, for me, best in the world at present because he gives you everything. Attacking, defending, harassing defences, embarrassing defenders and scoring sublime goals. I could watch that guy all day long. And also, we did more than beat Citeh last Monday night, we destroyed the myth that they were unbeatable and that even if you score 5 they would score 6. Against Norwich today just 2 shots on target. Chelsea have really dented their confidence and instilled doubt into the minds of the Citeh players and hope into the other Premiership teams. 6 great points this week and only 1 for Man city. Happy Days............Oh Yes Happy days A seismic shift in how I felt coming up to Christmas. So all credit to Mourinho, he has pulled this team together a hell of a lot quicker than I thought he would, and resigning Matic could be the masterstroke to win us the Premiership.

I have to say that having watched Gary Cahill playing recently he has really grown into this Chelsea side. I have been of the opinion that he was a better defender than Luiz, and that Luiz should and would play better as a DM. So I am now a very happy camper to see that Jose has finally listened to me and employed him as such. But Gary Cahill has really benefitted from a run in the side alongside John Terry. I think that he has grown in confidence and I seriously think he will be a Chelsea stalwart for a good few seasons to come. And Luiz likewise........but as a defensive midfielder

This one is a "must win" for us. Newcastle will be hurting after the derby defeat and they like coming to the Bridge, so we must be careful. Team choice is crucial and no matter what team I pick it wont match the one the boss picks. I'm sure Mourinho will have a surprise selection up his sleeve and I dont care if he plays "the masseuse" as long as we beat the barcodes about 3-0. It would be a real confidence boost for us with the tough games we have coming up. Com'n you Blues

Agree mate. I've read a fair few of their posts and they really have taken the defeat in good grace. Most praising Hazard and Matic and saying their manager is to blame. Maybe they should hire our masseuse At least one set of fans in Manchester applaud a good performance by a visiting team.

AWESOME..............WE WERE FUCKING AWESOME Now my team rating, player by player Cech... awesome Ivanovich.............awesome Aspi.....................awesome Terry...................awesome Cahill..................awesome Luiz....................awesome Matic..................awesome Ramirez.............awesome Hazard...............awesome Willian...............awesome Eto'o..................awesome Oscar................awesome Mikel.................awesome Ba.....................awesome and lets not forget our Scottish masseuse who gave the team talk (according to Mourinho!!)...........awesome and finally, Mourinho...........FUCKING AWESOME !!!!!!!!!

I bet he's looking very Solomon

Why are people so worried about the Man City game after this game?? West Ham came tonight and "parked the bus" never really threatened Cech. They invited us on to them and just block defended. Now do you see City playing that sort of match? not fucking likely. They will want to try and bury us like they have done to every other team. That's why we have a chance,We are a class counter-attacking side and I really think we can get something out of City, and dont be surprised if we nick a win. We are well capable. Fuck the West Ham result. That game is over and them c@nts cant play football. City will be a whole different ball game :blue scalf:

Well......... fuck

And dont forget that once clubs see Chelsea are interested, that too bumps up the price by a couple of million. But I still think it would be a good deal. Mourinho is building a good young squad and if Luke Shaw continues to improve (which I have no doubt he will do under Mourinho) he will be priceless and irreplaceable by the time he's 24-25. And with the way player values are rising, what will he be worth then ??

Cant stand them myself, I'm still hurting since they beat us in the League Cup Final back in 1972 But seriously, although they can't play football, they have the ability to stop US playing football, and that's what they can do well. And they have beaten us this season which should give us an extra incentive to beat these cloggers out of sight. We need to win this game early, make some substitutions to rest our main men, and prepare for a couple of tough league fixtures next week. 3-0 should do nicely :blue scalf:

Nobody on here is doubting Mata's ability. We all know that he is a star player, but he just doesn't fit the system we are playing at present, and as we all can see, this system is starting to pay dividends for us.So let him leave, it's just business. If we all had to choose between Mata and Mourinho who would you keep? Mourinho for me, no debate!! So if the Boss decides to sell. him, then I have complete faith in his decision
