i dont know about that i think Bosingwa will start ahead of Ivanovic as Bosingwa didn't go on international duty and Ivanovic is only returning to training today from his trip to Honduras.

Our last 10 games against the original big four (Chelsea, Man U, Arsenal, Liverpool) doesn't look good. Chelsea 2-0 Arsenal Liverpool 2-0 Chelsea Arsenal 3-1 Chelsea Chelsea 0-1 Liverpool Chelsea 2-1 Man U Chelsea 0-1 Man U Man U 2-1 Chelsea Man U 2-1 Chelsea Man U 3-1 Chelsea Chelsea 3-5 Arsenal W2 L8 D0 That is an awful record losing 8 out of 10 games against them, bearing in mind we done the double over all of them in the 09/10 season. Something needs to change for this game.

any streams?

anyone found any streams?

why on earth are people putting Mceachran in their team? He will 100% not play! we will play a stong team in this game also the fact josh played 90 minutes on Monday for the reserves so he has little chance of playing.

Wednesday

anyone got a good stream?

anyone got a good stream?

any streams?

im watching DCS 4 on sopcast anyone know where i can get some english commentary?

any good streams?

so did i!!! if we can score early this will be a rout!!!

im a striker i score goals for fun!!!

the way i see it Torres needs players around him who can move the ball quickly and play defense splitting passes! we have those type of players now with Mata, Meireles and Sturridge. So i want to see Torres playing with these guys and if he still cant score goals with them around him then we would need to get rid of him, but i feel when he does start playing with them the goals will come! and plenty of them as well!!

those kind of comments can only be a good thing for us, they will motivate our players like in the 09/10 season fergie came out and said we were to old then to win the league, with players like Ballack, Carvalho, Deco, J.Cole, Belletti but what happened we won the double! Man u were not exactly young last season were they with players lie van der sar, ferdinand, neville, scholes, giggs, berbatov ect! and what happened they won the PL and got to the CL final! so these kind of comments are not only ridicuous but good for us. if Man u want to write us off then its alot better for us! Our players and Manager know we are more than capable to win the league and as soon as we start putting in some good performances i gaurantee everyone on here will believe Chelsea will win the league! if we go out and batter Sunderland like last season at their place, and then go and win at old trafford then i would like to see who would be writing us off then!

Of course we can win the league! I have been shocked by how many people think we cant win it this year??? i find it crazy that people think we dont even have a small chance to win the league! but i guess thats how football fans are, people think that because the Manchester clubs have started off the season by scoring goals for fun and winning with ease (like we did last season) they think they will do that for the whole season! and just because we haven't been convincing at home to Norwich and West brom people think we are going to struggle to beat those teams all season! to me thats just laughable! both Manchester clubs will go through bad patches this season no doubt! you cant play at the intensity they are playing at for an entire season, they will soon run out of steam! whereas us we have got off to a very steady start to the season! not very impressive but still getting results, if we can keep this up for another month of two just doing enough to win games and hand put a couple of real beatings as well and then around end of November/start of December should be when we come into our championship form where we can start battering all teams! im going to predict for once that Chelsea will have a great Christmas period and hardly drop a point throughout Dec/Jan as thats the time of year when usually we are awful but this year the way we have started makes me think thats when we can hit our peak! and where the Manchester clubs start going through a bad patch! We have so much strength in depth now as well, which is something we lacked last season, i feel we can run away with the league this year, Man City will struggle to compete in both CL and PL also all they need is one injury to Silva and they are finished! yes they have more creative players but Silva makes them tick and is their most important attacking player. and United the thing which makes them so strong is the fact that basically every team in the league apart from us, City and Liverpool are soo scared of them! any other team who gets into a position against Man U where they are winning or drawing going into the final 10-20 minutes will be thinking 'its only a matter of time before they score' and this is going to be a big problem for us! once teams realise that they are capable of beating Man U then the better that will be for Chelsea, thats why we really need to lead from the front this season and make sure we stay there! I fully believe we are more than capable to Win our Title back for sure! anyone else who doesnt is either getting carried away with the Manchester clubs starts this season or just believe and actually listen to all the rubbish the so called football experts say about Chelsea, Man U and Man CIty.

calm down! so your basically contradicting yourself? If you think we are just going to stick Mata on the wing and tell him to just get on with it then you are mistaken! Mata will surely get the freedom to drift from left to right and through the middle! thats the only way to get the best out of him, he may even start matches in the middle playing behind the strikers!

What??? we bought in Juan Mata who is one of the best creative midfielders in the country! and also Raul Meireles who is a box to box midfielder who can also create chances! we now have more than enough creativity in the team to feed the strikers! Im baffled by that comment!

I really want to see Drogba and Torres start together in the same team as Mata and Meireles, as I feel that partnership will have much better chance of working with those two playing behind them. If it still can't work with two quality creative players behind them then Drogba and Torres should never start together again. I would like to see something like this .......................................Cech....................................... ........Bosingwa.......Luiz............Terry..............A.Cole.... ........................................Mikel....................................... ...................Meireles.........................Lampard................. ........................................Mata......................................... ....................Drogba.............................Torres................... or ...........................................Cech....................................... .....Bosingwa.............Luiz................Terry...............A.Cole. .............Ramires............Meireles............Lampard................ ..........................................Mata........................................... ........................Drogba.........................Torres....................... if this still can't work then we have to play 4-3-3 with Mata and Sturridge out wide and Torres through the middle and Meireles in a three man midfield, so it will be either Mikel or Ramires being dropped out the team.

streams anyone?

no he cant! Ribery is a winger, he never plays in between the lines! he maybe could play there as he is a quality player, but i doubt he would do any good there, it would be like putting Malouda in that role, just not his positon. Ribery is best at playing on the left wing and cutting inside not sitting behind strikers trying to play through balls!

well Modric and Ribery are two completley different players, so i dont know how you can say Ribery is better? as a creative midfielder Modric is obviously better, as a winger Ribery is better!

i want to see .................................Hilario............................. ..Bosingwa.......Ivanovic.........Terry.......A.Cole.. .....................................Mikel............................. .................Mceachran..................Lampard........ .......Benayoun.................Torres................Malouda.. then in the 60th minute when were 2 or 3 nil up change the team to this! .......................................Hilario...................................... .....Bosingwa..........Ivanovic.......Terry........A.Cole...... ..........................................Mceachran...................... ..................Benayoun................................Lampard.. ..............................................Mata.............................. .....................Drogba..............................Torres/Lukaku.. bring on Lukaku for Torres late on so Torres can get a standing ovation for his two goals!

so is all our big guns going to be at the pompey game?

Crystal Palace FC Bromley FC Coney Hall FC (i used to play for them) and there is a new semi pro team starting up about 5 minutes from me, which i will be joining!!!
