on the bright side i'll find it easier to justify to the wife why i need to get the new kit next year. new sponsor! .

Btw re: Markovic. I think i know now why Chelsea passed up on him. Almost nonexistent against Everton. He had one breakaway chance from a Gerrard or Henderson lob pass (cant recall which one) that he miscontrolled.

I think he played better than Balotelli tbh.

Tot score. Would like a draw tbh. Am i the only one?

Happy to see him score.

What happened to the "happy one"?

Is that Peter "planking" at the back? Melts my heart to see Tibo and Pete getting along...

With this kind of injury, is it Milan's or Chelsea's medical department that has to step in?

My theory is his feelings got hurt when he read on the news that Drogba was coming back (hurt because they're of the same age). Out of spite, he went and agreed to city move.

He was a tad selfish though in the attack the led to Oscar's goal. Options to his left and right, he instead opted to shoot which was blocked. Luckily Oscar recylced the move and scored.

Right now he reminds me of Kalou with his high and/or wide shots - an everything but the finish player. But Andre has a bigger potential IMO.

Remy could have made it 3, but Lonergan made a great save. Thought he had a decent game in terms of linking up the play and moving to either flanks from time to time. Bit selfish though in the counter attack that led to Oscar's goal.

Filipe Luis offered good support. Thought he was good in his positioning. Oscar might get the MOTM for scoring.

Schurrle defending the right side gives me mini heart attacks.. He's been soooooo wasteful too. Wanted to see Baker on for him, but anyway. Good night.

Any update on his extension? Some rumblings before the city game. Havent heard any since.

He's basically saying "my players are good, they're just p*ssies that's all"

I do hope Hazard gets a rest. But would like to have him on the bench just in case...

Skill with the ball i dont think anybody is even close to his level. His ability to take players on is a delight to watch.

Funny how Brendan complained last year that Liverpool could never match Chelsea's transfer dealings. He did splurge in the summer... Having only faced City among the big clubs they sit with 6 points.... really want to see them to flop this year. Hope Everton crush them this weekend with Atsu bagging a goal.

Brana has transformed himself to Paulo Ferreira...

City fans saying Kompany and Mangala tamed Diego. How about Cahill and Terry on Aguero?

Andre was poor against Swansea and it was actually Ramires who changed the game.

I want to see him deliver a hat trick of assists next time. King Didier did that before at least once.

seems to me like an all around good guy. hope he gets more games.

Loved every bit except the part where Yaya was bullying Hazard prior to kick off! Are they friends at all?!?!?
