Ollie

He showed his class when he came on and his assist for Rami has to be the greatest assist i've ever seen. I could watch that goal 1000 times and to do it against them ah baby and the way he took his pen was just a genius at work. The last kick of the game against Manchester United from the penalty spot, 3-2 down and to stroke it in like that was pure genius. I love this team. I loved our 98/99 team but this is just a different level. When Oscar, Hazard and Mata have played together for a couple of years, they will just tear this league to pieces. It's a joy to watch.

Well i was born in '86 but yeah, there's more than 40 years of history there which is the only reason i was sad they went down or that it's taken them so long to get back. Rivalry lasts forever. It's nice that we stuck their final nail in though with the 1-0 win on the last day of 03/04, their last ever premiership game

This is for all of you foreign fans or newer fans. Not many of you would've experienced us playing Leeds. Chelsea and Leeds have a mega rivalry, even now Leeds sing "We hate Chelsea" in every fucking match they play, even when they were in League 1. Obviously our first FA Cup win was over Leeds in 1970, one of the most talked about finals ever and first ever to be won via a replay. We beat them in the Carling Cup around 10 years ago 2-0 away with 2 Eidur goals but we do not usually do well there at all. There was an epic 3-2 win in 94/95 after going 2-0 down thanks to their keeper John Lucic being shit (He was always that good) but we always do badly against them away. Lots of memories though. I was at the game in 02/03 when Eidur scored THAT stunning bicycle kick, another really cracking game when they were on the demise. It doesn't really matter where they are now, Chelsea vs Leeds is Chelsea vs Leeds or Leeds vs Chelsea whatever way you wanna put it. I remember Jon Harley's winner and the LEGEND JFH missing a penalty for them against us but scored 2 the year before when they humped us 3-1. Laurent Charvet ... remember his volley? Bet not many of you can and even James Milner scored a belter against us when he was 16! This really is a match i wanted to see again and i hope we absolutely trash them. They are the dirtiest bunch of cunts football has ever seen, goes back to the Don Revie days in the 60's and 70's fucking shameful team, even the legendary Brian Clough couldn't control those bunch of shit filth. They are, as Dave Jones described, vile animals. If we get out of this match with minimal injury, we'll be lucky. JT and Lamps are very much needed. Tell Luiz to stay at home, JT and Cahill are the guys to play at the back. Then i'd like to see Lampard with Ramires and Mikel in the middle with Hazard, Sturridge and Mata as the 3 up top. 4-3-3 is the way to go. We need the mix of power with skill in all areas. Can't wait for this! Long way to go though. Let's do them scum! Oh yeah and Ken Bates is their owner, our owner from 1982 - 2003 when he bought us for £1 and sold us to Roman for £150 million ish. So yeah, Chelsea vs Leeds is pretty big.

I was begging for Leeds away, begging, i was on my sofa literally BEGGING "Please be Leeds, Please be Leeds, please be Leeds!!" Words do not even describe how happy i was with this draw. It's been a long time waiting, finally got those horrible parasite scum again. WE HATE LEEDS!

I didn't see yesterdays stupid game, just todays. Bit fucked up but great to watch. They seemed more used to their players like there was a bit more chemistry there but when we brought Hazard and Oscar on, it was only 1 way traffic. That Ramires goal will be remembered by me forever as one of my all time favourite Chelsea goals. What Hazard did there was pure genius and then how Rami took it. Stunning. Was very impressed with Azpi. Yes, dodgy at times but that's expected. I like him. Has pace and can pass very well and looks pretty strong. League Cup show on BBC1 now. I'd advise all to watch!!

Wanna see Piazon, Moses and Marin behind Sturridge.

We all know what happened in the last match but this isn't the revenge mission. The revenge mission will be at Old Trafford later on the the league campaign. This is just simply a match where our young players batter theirs. I'm very much looking forward to this game.

Martin Samuels take on proceedings. Well worth a read. Clattenburg wourd retire if he read this lol. Awesome stuff by him. http://www.dailymail...tch-report.html

I love Mata, i actually love him. He will be a Chelsea legend and he's such a nice down to earth bloke to boot. Anyone wanting to get a name and number on the shirt, Mata has to be your man. He's our main man of today.

Relieved and sad at the same time. I kept my job by the skin of my teeth but sadly my mate lost his. He's like a brother to me, i love him and only did what i did because he's my mate. He only came in today to save me, not himself. I only saved my job because of my record in the last 9 years because what i did was bad enough to be sacked twice over! I was supposed to do my hearing with someone else but didn't have the sufficient paper work, he woulda sacked me no question about it. I got lucky, i got someone nice and got away with it. Over the moon i kept my job but gutted for my mate.

Ronaldo will get it i believe but to see Balotelli and Rooney on that list makes me sick. Mata is a true artist and has been incredible for a year. Balotelli didn't just have 1 good match at the euro's, he had one good match the whole of the last year. Tbh let Ronaldo win it, at least he probably deserves it and it might make him feel loved again, the cunt.

If this works, maybe we can get Howard Webb done at Old Trafford. He's bound to ref it

It's not hard to use technology for offsides. Once pricarito scored, the ball's dead, look at the replay. How hard is that, seriously? Takes 5 seconds. The game has already stopped.

I wasn't that excited about Wednesday. I sure as hell am now. I did predict though throughout the thread that they're gonna win somehow and get loads of luck, i felt it. As soon as that first goal somehow went in, i knew.... i think we all knew. Still love the way we played though, was just a nasty way to lose.

This will never get proven. It's another racism saga that will go on forever that we can do without tbh, it's getting annoying now.

Last season, Old Trafford, 2 offside goals. Last season, Stamford Bridge, 2 penalties This season, Stamford Bridge, 2 red cards, 1 offside goal.

Ivanovic made no move towards Ashley Young. If you watch 100 times, you'll notice Young deliberately put his leg into Ivanovic to get him sent off. We all know what he's like. The way he fell down, absolute disgrace. And yeah, Evans said he caught Torres but he coulda stayed up... running at that pace? 1 word from today, screwed!

What can i say that hasn't already been said? Nothing i suppose. This type of game makes my love for Chelsea grow though, we were absolutely fantastic but to try and beat a Man Utd team that are 4 points behind, the referees wont allow it to get to 7. Evans admitted he caught Torres, Ashley Young's foot caught Ivanovic, not the other way round and their 3rd goal was offside and fuck sake look how lucky their first goal was! It's ridiculous, it just makes me so angry. We didn't lose because they were better, we lost because the referees decided the outcome already. 2 years in a row now, 3 games straight we've been fucked over by them. Awesome performance and spirit though when we were 2-0 down, we'll bounce back because we're good enough to win this league. I honestly believe we're the best team in the league.

Van Persie has a great record at the bridge and Rooney has a great recent record against us. Torres has a pretty decent record against them too though but what's the betting he gets in a great position again and gets caught up taking an age to pull the fucking trigger. Rooney and Van Persie are really big threats today. We can hope 1 has an off day, but both? I don't think so. Luiz needs to play like a proper defender today. Maybe he'll kick Rooney again off the ball. My feelings atm are that Man Utd are gonna get extremely lucky and beat us somehow. I can see em getting at least 1 pen too.

A blue day tomorrow would be fucking awesome.

I hate losing the Saturday early games the most because then the whole weekend is shit and you have to watch everyone else take advantage.

Cahill will get better, his errors are basic errors. David Luiz worries me when i see him in the starting line up, Cahill doesn't. My opinion is that Cahill is a better defender and that Luiz should never be anywhere near that back 4. Luiz makes stupid mistakes and will probably give away a daft penalty tomorrow, almost like he needs to because it's his roleplay for being a bit erratic. I hope he learns one day but i have more expectation that Cahill will be a more complete defender before Luiz will. Anyway.... who cares, they're both playing tomorrow, they've played together before, they won the UCL together ffs so let them both learn from each other. Neither are as good as JT, that is for sure. JT will be missed.

Watched Arsenal, was insanely boring but i thought QPR were comfortable tbh Arsenal were rubbish, QPR probably looked more likely to nick it. They shoulda snatched a late point too, Arsenal are the luckiest team to never win anything. Never watched the Man City game, didn't interest me. They don't excite me, they're so boring. Their luck needs to runs out soon because it's getting very annoying and a bit worrying. Reading - Fulham was mental. Not a weekend worth watching MOTD though.

Cahill made his debut in last seasons stupid game, he looked a bit shakey but he's grown so much as a player since then. He's had more time to prepare for this one as he's settled now and he knows he's going to play. In fact, the whole team basically know they are playing. Cahill is a much better defender than David Luiz. Luiz maybe the better 'player' but we don't need good players at CB, we need good defenders. Luiz's pace though good be vital as both Man Utd's strikers are quiker than Cahill and Ivanovic. If Cahill plays next to Cole and Luiz next to Ivan, it should balance nicely. We certainly have the team to cause Man Utd heaps of problems tomorrow. Man Utd don't worry me at all, only Rooney and Van Persie.

Norwich absolutely dominated that game just now, even with 11 vs 11 is was only Norwich playing. I like Norwich, they play really good football. Villa deserve to go down, they had no idea what to do with the ball once they got it so then just hoofed it up to Benteke, who played very well btw. What you lot gonna watch at 3? not much choice to be fair, the only game that stands out is Arse - QPR.
