Ollie

Great for you. You seem to stop early for most stuff. Nobody gives a shit where you stopped or started tbh.

And what's your point? Why bring in Carlo if he aint gonna help or support him? He's just a moneybags owner that is blind to the situation at Chelsea right now. It's January, the transfer window is open, you have what...£7b? Is that not enough? fuck me.

This is all RA's fault. I don't give a shit what anyone here says, since 2007, he's slowly ruined this club when it was almost perfect. Champions 05 and 06, FA Cup and Carling Cup winners 07 and then we start a tiny bit slow in the 07-08 season and he sacks Jose. I hate saying Jose Mourinho's name, i absolutely hate it so much and i wish i could forget he exists but the fact of the matter is that if Roman had let Jose do his job in his own way, we would've won the fucking lot in 2008 and more in 09. Instead of 3 silver medals in 2008, we woulda had 3 gold ones without any doubt at all then maybe Jose coulda said thanks, i want a new challenge, i've done all i can. Now in 2010, we have a great manager but once again, Jose is being a prick and not letting him do what he wants and smart arse gets rid of Wilkins and gives Carlo no money to spend and staff on that bench that have no passion or desire. Carlo has only done what he's been allowed to do, he's restricted and if i was him, i'd just walk. He's not getting any support and this run of results since mid november is looking like his fault when it is clearly not. This could all have been prevented with a few quality and experienced players.

Too high profile for us. Chelsea signing Aguero is like Aston Villa signing Messi. WE-DO-NOT-BUY-WORLD-CLASS-PLAYERS

I'd still rather Carlo stay and Roman pull his finger (or his wallet) out.

That header from Ivanovic at Ewood made it our best start to a premiership season for 4 years. I thought we were gonna win the league after that, i was buzzing like crazy at full time and we were on a fucking roll. Now.... we're a team in absolute disarray. I think we'll get a sneaky 1-0 win here but wouldn't bank on it. No matter who we play, there's no assurance we'll win.

Ah wouldn't you just love Robbie Di Matteo and Eddie Newton back as number 1 and 2. Not hugely named experienced coaches tho so there's no chance of it happening. We need someone with Chelsea blood tho, this is ridiculous. This is the worst shit i've seen since 2001-2002 ish.

Essien has been awful in this run and dont even try and say he hasn't been. Bosingwa, Essien, Drogba, Kalou (consistently), Ramires, Ashley Cole and Anelka have all been awful lately and i mean, awful. We're in deep shit, seriously.

There's only one man fit for the job and available-ish. Guus Hiddink.

Because the Arabs are willing to spend to improve their team. The Russian isn't.

Altho we lost, great experience for some of those players.

His shit form started just after Carlo said that Anelka is in the best form of his career. An article i read on my phone from the BBC Chelsea football page 1 day before we played Liverpool. From 3 shots, to 2 shots, to 0 shots. What the hell is next lol, maybe a goal against wolves or 2. Can't stay shit forever.

I would like the David Bentley that left Blackburn a lot more than the David Bentley that's at Tottenham. He's a good player with a great delivery but really goes missing for long periods of games. He tries too hard for the yids whereas at Blackburn he was a guaranteed starter at a team where theres not much ambition or pressure. Exactly the same as SWP. Feels the pressure of a big team that are expected to win nearly every game. He tried too hard and didn't play his natural way for us but with city before the money, he wasn't under huge pressure to deliver. Bit like Bentley at Tottenham, when Lennon is injured it's "Shit, i must be amazing or i'm out the team"

Yeah that game was the biggest waste of 90 minutes ever, Drogba lovesickness just got on my nerves that day too. It was a 100% meaningless game and still Carlo did nothing experimental. I can understand not doing it in a carling cup or fa cup game a bit because u can still get knocked out, but in a meaningless game, come on...

Interesting... Banners like that aint gonna help, but he (roman) just needs to realise that we need players and the right coaches and the fact that decisions like getting rid of Mourinho and Wilkins aren't gonna benefit the club in any way but have an adverse effect instead. Get the right staff, get the right players, keep the right staff and keep the right players and when players move on for one reason or another, replace them with players that we need. He's lacking in this area but we have to trust that he knows what he's doing. 03 Took over, paid our debts, gave us loads of money 04 Premiership Runners Up 04 UCL semi 05 Carling Cup 05 Premiership 05 UCL semi 05 Community Shield 06 Premiership 06 FA Cup Semi 07 Carling Cup 07 UCL Semi 07 FA Cup 07 Premiership Runners Up 08 Carling Cup Finalists 08 Premiership Runners UP 08 UCL Finalists 09 Community Shield 09 FA Cup 09 UCL semi 10 Premiership 10 FA Cup It's not been a bad half a dozzen years with the Russian. He's made some errors yes, like everyone does but he's still our owner and we gonna trust him. Yes, we want improvements but at the end of the day, it's all up to him.

Well Man City bought Adam Johnson when he was championship, he never really played for Boro in the prem, he was 2nd fiddle to downing syndrome. £2m, worth a go i suppose. Dunno where or when he's gonna play tho but he has scored some stunning goals in his career.

You could even play bosingwa as a winger when our back 4 is Cole, JT, Alex and Ivanovic as a right footed option. I think the way he plays could work. We have Ipswich at home in the FA Cup next weekend (i think). Surely the type of game to try something different. Maybe that option is unavailable for then but just anything different is worth a try.

The problem is that you need 2 proper, world class wingers to use a 4-3-3 properly. We only have one good winger in our squad and that's Malouda. Kalou is never going to give you a succession of great (or good) performances and Anelka is just a wandering striker who simply cannot play out there. I would have Malouda and Zhirkov on the wings, rotating like Duff and Robben did for us so well 5 years ago (fuck me, is it that long ago...). Both left footers too, it will confuse so many teams defences. Duff and Robben were instrumental to our first 2 title wins, especially the first one. Malouda and Zhirkov could be just as good and have a similar impact if they are used properly.

Surely Roman can't be happy with the current situation. Surely, if he can waste £40m-ish on Ramires and Zhirkov (i like Zhirkov but he's not worth that much), he can do the decent thing and try and strengthen this weak squad when we really need it. It clearly needs strengthening unless there's something we dont know. Maybe he's gonna shock us all out of the blue, he hasn't said anything like "If i sign someone in January, i'll run around Chelsea naked" yet so you never know.

Also Essien hasn't been good at all lately either. It will happen soon where the players fire again but we are starting to run out of time for it to happen. We have to go on a run starting on Wednesday in Wolves. We didn't deserve to beat Villa anyway if truth be told. We've been a tad unlucky on the fixtures too, that may seem weird to say that but we're playing everyone when they desperately need something from the game. Next we have Wolves who are bottom having just lost a huge game against West Ham. Villa were in free-fall, Arsenal had just lost to Man Utd etc. Wolves need to get something from wednesdays game and that, once again will make it tougher than usual.

At the end of the day, you must do 2 things. 1) Celebrate after the final whistle when we've officially won the match. 2) Make sure you hold onto the lead if you're gonna celebrate a last minute goal to put you ahead (Like when Lamps scored against Stoke in the dying seconds and the players ran to Scolari) Bottom line is, we fucked up yesterday big time and huge lessons would've been learned. While the game is still going on, anyone has time to score. I don't blame them for celebrating like that, hell i did pretty much the same with my dad and my brother, we went fucking mad. it's spare of the moment but when you score like that, you have to fucking hold onto it. Disastrous ending.

We aint gonna smash anybody. Scrappy single goal win i guess or a draw. If we don't win, heads will roll.

Well the answer to the question is the carling cup game at home to newcastle where we lost 4-3 but in the league and in the big games he's been crap all season to be honest. He is NOT a winger for christ sake. He's laboured, bit like berbatov when he's shit. He has great feet but doesn't go anywhere or do anything constructive. Just runs into dead ends and brick walls.

No signings, no ambition, no trophies, Simple.

we need about 5 players
