I thought Drogba would take it though, guess he will have to hope on a second penalty or just score himself of course

CMON Chelsea WE NEED A SECOND 1-0 IS TOO MUCH PRESSURE FOR US !

Nope. Matic took his place, dont know why. Maybe Chelsea allowed him to go and work on his transfer to Brazil.. Or maybe just injured..again.

:mellow: Training with the first team at 15 is crazy. Especially since Chelsea was kinda NYA (No Youth Allowed) back then. Hope he can grow out to be a Chelsea Legend !

From the '' My Week At Work '' topic off the official website Academy manager Neil Bath was interviewed this week This is what he said about the best training of the week: '' Josh McEachran recently training with the first team and seeing how he can also cope at that level. '' I was excited when i read it and im verry happy he is already training with the first team. And more importantly that he can cope with the level. Do you guys think he will have a big chance of getting playtime in the first team next season ?

I do agree with you there. If only Joey was in (consistent) form, than we wouldnt have that problem. Ashley Young would be a good signing. Pace, dribbling and a fantastic crosser. We would have the best left-footed (Malouda) and best right-footed (Young) crossers in the league. With Didier upfront, imagine the aerial threat .

This would be a dream come true ! Gonzalo Higuaín is one of my favorite strikers. His speed, ball control and finishing is fantastic. He also likes to score beautiful goals and thats always nice. He is also pretty strong and a hard worker. And he is only 22. He would be a better and cheaper signing than Aguero or even Pato (please God, dont let Chelsea sign him) He would be the perfect replacement for Didier. I really dont know how long Didier is gonna keep this up, performing at such a high level. The chances of this happening are very slim, but he hasnt extended his contract. And there's something going on with him and Ronaldo. I think he wants to be the big star as well, i dont know.. And dont forget Real Madrid really do like big big names. Thats why they want players like Rooney, Villa and Torres. Players with alot of media hype. I would be verry happy would he join us

Really looks like we have a golden generation on our way. Josh McEachran is a football magician and i absolutely love that guy. His ball control and confidence with the ball is outstanding. No wonder Iniesta is his football idol, he really reminds me of him. We should get an experienced (age 26-28) playmaker instead of a young one so Josh can follow him up. He absolutely has to make in the Chelsea FC first team in a few years. The other players in this group also have great potential. Just imagine having a team in a few years with a great amount of youth players . It saves (alot of) money and gives the club such a great image . And most importantly, the fans of club will absolutely love it.

He should get a chance to prove himself. But i hope people i dont burst people's bubble with what i'm about to say. He had a great start to the season (right wing) but then his level dropped for a long while. The main reason for this has to be the fact he got moved to left wing. Twente's best player, Bryan Ruiz, is left-footed and he is at his best cutting inside from the right. He became too predictable, always trying to cutt in from the left and take a shot. And believe me, the defenders in the dutch league suck ! Stoch was probably their third best player, behind Bryan Ruiz and Douglas (CB). I just hope that i am right about the fact that the reason his level dropped was because he was moved to left wing. This guy is a 'classic' right winger and he is lucky we only have Joey for that position. So he should get a chance to prove himself but i think he will be loaned out again. But hey, you never know what he will do at the WC

Agree. Like i said, we still have to beat Wigan. They surprised us before earlier this season. I hope the players are'nt overconfident. Thats the biggest weakness of this team, overconfidence

1 point :huh: Explain please ?

Just knew we would win. Didnt know we would play so badly in the first half and we were lucky Liverfool wasnt at the top of their game. Too bad we didnt score a few more but 0-2 is a nice score. Now we need to beat Wigan at home and we are champions Would be fantastic if we scored at least five goals and win the PL with 100 goals !

Zhirkov coming on Should've been brought on a long time ago, i mean come on 4 min..

Agree If Kalou keeps playing like this, he really is an great addition to the squad. I hope he does because i've always liked the guy. Never complains and really seems to love the club.

Bring on Sturridge ! Love that guy Zhirkov also deserves game time !

THANK GOD FOR ALEX WHAT WAS JT THINKIN !

People, please dont say we are champions You might jinx it, we still have to win this game and win at home against Wigan !

I really think we can beat them. If we start the game like we did against Stoke, very high tempo from the start, we can bring the three points back home. Malouda was fantastic in centre midfield and i would love to see him in that position again. He brings pace, power, hard work and skill to go past a man. He also showed good vision by bringing in long balls (like the ball too Drogba that led to the first goal). Would love to see this line-up ------------------------------------Cech---------------------------------- Ivanovic--------------Alex------------------Terry-----------------Cole ----------Lamps-------------Mikel/Ballack----------Louda------------ Cole/Kalou--------------------Drogba--------------------------Zhirkov You can get some great position switching on that left side, with Malouda going out wide and Zhirkov going in centre or Zhirkov staying behind at leftback and Cole staying forward every other time. Zhirkov was our best player in recent weeks (together with Louda of course). His attacking play was fantastic with his mazing dribbles and pace being a real pain for the opposition. I felt sorry for him being benched after the good job he had done when he was playing Come on Chels !

I agree with you that Ballack was great against Stoke. But dont forget that Stoke hardly attacked. I wouldnt complain if he would start but i dont know, i trust Ancelotti will make right choice (like he did against the rest of 'the top 4'.
