I'm sorry to say, but the match going fans are a fucking disgrace. Just a bunch of tourists.

Nice to see Schurrle has gotten phyiscally stronger/bigger over the winter period and as a result looks a better player. He doesn't get bullied off the ball anymore like he did in his first few months here. Perhaps that's why Jose froze him out over the Christmas period..... To give him time to build some muscle. http://www.clubcall.com/chelsea/schurrle-adds-muscle-to-title-bid-1715692.html?utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=twitterfeed

Ridiculously underrated because he moved to a shit team in an average league. This guy is just as talented as any of the other so-called future ballon d'Or winners out there.

First thing, the board is stupid. Main reason lies in Sturridge as perfect example. He scored 9 goals in first half under Avb, as soon Avb was sacked, Danny never realy got first team action, one would think Torres got back to his best, but that wasnt realy reason for Danny not playing. I will never understand why is Torres getting all that playtime, yeah he cost 50mio but he was playing simply terrible and as big club with enough money, we should get rid of him 2 seasons ago. More baffling is how Mourinho, who benched MATA and before CASILLAS, arguably something only crazy man would do back then, but yet he couldnt see how shit Torres is. I mean, is Ba realy that worse?!? Why is Mou still sticking to Torres, Mou of all people, I wont ever understand. But that is discussion for another topic. So, Danny, boy we never trusted moves to Lpool and becomes top striker in two seasons. Would be that different if we simply benched Torres and give Danny a real chance? You forgot about Drogba in all of this.

(1) Hazard (2) Azpilicueta (3) Cahill

"Only 3 players (Suarez 52, Van Persie 37, Sturridge 31) have scored more league goals than Lukaku since August 2012.”

We haven't gotten anywhere near the amount of decisions Man City have gotten, especially in the second half of the season. And Liverpool already have 12 penalties, we have 5. We've had many penalties turned down this season. Against Stoke, just yesterday, we should have had one on Lampard and maybe one on Torres. How many times is Hazard fouled in the box and he gets nothing? What about the Villa game? We've gotten fuck all in the second half of the season compared to those two teams.

I will prefer it if Gerrard played against us. The defensive cover he offers their back four is far from impressive and that's a position of strength for us with Oscar, Willian, Schurrle, Hazard and co coming through the centre. Lucas and Henderson provide better cover.

The refs are awarding Liverpool penalties right, left and centre. Man City get all the refereeing decisions. The refs are doing us zero favours.

We do it all the time with Torres

Mourinho on Willian vs Stoke: 'The goal was really good but I think a player with his quality, that gives so much to the team, not just in possession but in the defensive work and balance of the team, I want to see him score more goals. He has to do that in the second season, he has to bring his game into other levels.' Basically what we've been saying as well.

This is actually pretty hilarious. I'm not sure if Eden was joking with Luiz or he didn't understand what was happening. https://mediacru.sh/nTkoHvaF4Fqf

Salah, after just 1 league start needs 2 more goals in the league to equalize Torres' goals tally for the entire season. You just can't make this stuff up.

Another beastly game from Matic. This guy has to be the most dynamic holding midfielder in world football. The way he burst from the left on the by-line and cut it back for Salah to score was just fantastic. Ok, Stoke were rubbish and offered little to no attacking threat but Matic has been quality in almost every game this season. From his MOTM performance in his debut against City to, Newcastle, Tottenham, Everton and Arsenal. He has become my favourite player already and is arguably our most important player alongside Hazard. He reminds me a lot of Redondo. Absolutely world class.

Jose keeps emphasizing how physically Oscar needs to improve. He does not have the upper body strength and leg muscles of a Hazard and he has a very slender frame. It's no surprise why he sometimes struggles against the physical PL teams, but he is sensational in Europe. No one can seriously doubt his talent. He is one of the best young talents in Europe. He needs to bulk up physically after the World Cup though. That's very important. Mata obviously had similar problems but it was less obvious with him, because he was able to create spaces for himself to operate in. Something Oscar is still learning to do.

Cracking game today. Well done and keep it up.

Salah is the big one for me in this game. Slotted in efforlessly into the team and looks a quality player at this level. Still a bit raw with his touch, but his ability was never in doubt. Only 21, but a big future. Willian good, Matic a boss as usual. I hope Schurrle is ok. How predictable that it was that ugly thug, Charlie Adam who hurt him. We absolutely destroyed a shocking Stoke side who tried to play football with us (how odd, I was expecting their usual bullshit). Very pleased with that. Now the trick is to play like that away from home. The only negative is Torres. Again just a mediocre player. In our easiest PL game this season, he still was our worst player. He scored no goals and offered ZERO CF play as usual. With Eto'o seemingly injured and Mourinho not trusting Ba at all, I don't know what we will do against PSG. Cavani just scored for them in their match like all top strikers do. They had the luxury of resting some of their stars, but Cavani still did a job and scored.Torres just hinders us in every way imaginable.

That's bullshit. Since when did Oscar become a bad player? Besides Salah is cup-tied, so we are thin there. Oscar is still one of our best players.

Mourinho was quiet on that. The thing is if Eto'o is even fit, he has shown in the past that he needs some time to get back to full sharpness, even for minor injuries. It has a lot to do with age. Torres has another mediocre performance today in our easiest league match of the season, Ba is not trusted. We don't have any strikers for that game.

Why hasn't Ba come on yet?

Torres still won't score. Fucking disgrace. Is this the guy who starts on Tuesday? Seriously?

Salah, wow

Hahaha, interesting facial hair from Ash. What a lad.

How the fuck is THAT NOT A CARD??????????

Matic, but I will give it to Salah since it's his debut. Goal and an assist on your full debut is not easy
