Alee.

I bet Jose's laughing at us right now.

Carlo should bring Kakuta on for Ballack

i bet it wasnt a 115x74 yard pitch though mate, and it wasn't against one of the best defenses in the Prem.

Is it me or has Lampard been more influential in this role? And why is Ballack taking corners when he cant lift the ball higher then his knees?

Oh right. Yeah i'd like to see that, he has more to offer in an attacking role.. If we dont win this match, the Prem is gone.

Where exactly will you fill Ash in if your taking a mid and a attacker off?

Ballack and Kalou should be thrown into an endless pit.

a) Why is Zhirkov LB again b ) Why are we starting Kalou when we can give time to Sturridge / Borini c) Why is Borini not on the bench even d) WHY are we starting Mikel instead of giving someone practice as DM so they can cover during ACON.

Teams: Chelsea (from): Cech, Hilario, Turnbull, Ivanovic, Belletti, Alex, Carvalho, Terry, A Cole, Lampard, Ballack, Mikel, J Cole, Zhirkov, Drogba, Kalou, Kakuta, Bruma, Borini, Sturridge, Matic. Fulham (from): Schwarzer, Zuberbuhler, Konchesky, Pantsil, Hangeland, Baird, Smalling, Kelly, Hughes, Etuhu, Murphy, Dempsey, Gera, Riise, Greening, Duff, E Johnson, Nevland, Zamora, A Johnson.

How is Kalou being available good news?

Not sure if i want Aguero anymore

Apparently, Carlo says if he breaks his promise and buys someone in January He'll run naked around Stamford Bridge - Not sure i want Aguero anymore.

Thing is, its not only this match, 1 win in 7 games in all competitions is just poor, and we're losing the plot. We cant rely on others to maintain our lead, anything less them three points in our next match would be a huge blow.

Everyone thinking Carletto should be sacked should take a gun and shoot themselves.

I think today was just proof we need Aguero. Sturridge was decent but no way is he bold enough to step up as our third striker (second while Kalou and Drogs are away) - I think Joey should've been brought on earlier, we lacked creativity going forward, didnt make much. Brum should've won with that offside goal in the first half. No way are we winning the EPL with this attitude. Time for Carlo to have talks with the team.

:doh:

I have a sinking feeling we'll look back at the end of the season and think "That's where it went wrong"

Thank fuck we're wearing white

Brilliant Stuff. F*ck off Real Madrid.

I dont under why you people hate Zhirkov? Hasn't been given enough playing time at all.

Welcome mate

I dont see why we're not signing him yet, if the problem is his wage bill, i dont see why we cant pay what Atletico were paying, Atleti have financial problems, and i see them selling Aguero come May, be it to Chelsea, Real Madrid or Manchester city. However in our case, i feel it has to be January, we cant rely on the transfer embargo to be completely lifted, we cant take that risk, if we're going to buy him, we should do it now. Even if we loan him back. But, with the African Cup of Nations coming, i dont see why we'd do that. Kalou (thank god) and Drogba will leave for ACON come Jan. We'll only have Nico, Sturridge and Borini. No way is that enough if we are looking to win the Premier league. We've already slipped alot, if we do more, we're sure to drop down from the top, and once that happens, its very hard to go back to the top. We've been in this position before, and we've lost the season from this position before, This time we cant afford slip-ups, and not buying a striker will be exactly that. In three words: BUY HIM NOW

Soloman 'hasnt got a' kalou

Aguero mulls over pay-cut to make Chelsea move Atletico Madrid striker Sergio Aguero must take a pay-cut to join Chelsea. The People says Aguero will have to take a pay cut to seal a record £40million-plus move from Atletico Madrid in the transfer window. The Argentinian attacker's handlers have been in negotiations with the Premier League leaders for a couple of weeks, but the major snag is his personal demands. Chelsea are worried about handing Aguero a contract worth £150,000-aweek or more because it would spark a spiral of requests for more cash among their existing stars. The bottom line is that Aguero would have to accept around £110,000 to £120,000 a week and that would leave him in a worse position than he is in Spain. The South American star is willing to quit La Liga despite his public statements of loyalty to Atletico. An insider claimed the deal was at 'stalemate' until one side changes its stance. He said: "Sergio would like to come but he does not want to take a pay cut. "It just needs Roman Abramovich to take some positive action and get his cheque book out or the whole move could collapse - he could do that with a simple nod of his head." http://www.tribalfootball.com/aguero-mulls-over-pay-cut-make-Chelsea-move-522261

Preposterous how they expect to form a club of the same level as Man United, Liverpool, Chelsea in only one transfer window..
