So, when you suppose we'll be able to buy a blue Torres jersey?

Is it true? Are we really going to get Torres?!? Do the latest rumors have us giving anyone up?

What a fucking brilliant performance. On this night, I completely ignore the negatives, because it felt so good to watch us clobber a team. Hasn't happened in the Premier league since September. Maybe...just maybe...we have turned this ship around. I still want to see this kind of performance against a big club, but I like what I've seen in the last couple weeks. Just in time for the CL.

Didn't Lampard miss his last PK attempt? Point being, I'm fine with either Drogs or Lampard taking that.

I feel like crying.

Yikes. The poor play continues. I guess I should feel lucky that this game is being shown on tape-delay this evening. I'll make other plans.

Partizan levels with Arsenal

Home from work, sick. But not sick enough to be on the laptop

I don't necessarily agree with this approach. You can't get out of a slump by playing reserves on the road and losing yet another game. Put a good line-up out there (debatable, I know), and get 3 points. Take that confidence and positive feeling to White Hart Lane.

Interesting line up today, lads. I can't see how Drogba doesn't find the net in his return. Marseille 1 - 2 Chelsea

So...scoring goals is the only way to judge talent? I knew I was missing something with my American upbringing.

I tend to agree that I care little about this loss. The Carling Cup only matters to the team that wins the trophy. We have bigger fish to fry and this will let us rest our stars throughout the fall and focus our mid-week attention on CL games.

Malouda!!!!!!!!!!!! with a brace!

No, this explanation makes too much sense.

right you are. damn.

I'd like to see Sturridge come in about right now. Anyone else?

DROOOOOOOGGGGGGGSSSSSSSS

I love having Essien back, running around for Chels. Missed that a lot last year.

Welcome to the new season, lads! 1-0 Malouda!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, the overreaction on this board based off a glorified exhibition is stunning. No one likes losing to Manure, but the real games don't begin until next weekend.

Oh, Kalou...why couldn't you sneak that one in there?

Looking forward to getting up tomorrow morning, heading over to a fellow Chelsea fan's house and watching the successful finish to our season.

Unrelated to thread: I think Chelsea is going to win the FA Cup this weekend.

This is rubbish. Why couldn't Manure just draw against Sunderland. That would've made this week so much easier to enjoy. I am 99.9% sure we will come out as champions on Sunday. And yet that 0.1% is dominating my every thought.

Gave my vote to Lampard today.
