Indeed. Biased opinion.

Amazing result. Front men had a GREAT match. Only the "new boy in town" effect would explain Matic receiving motm votes in a match like that. This game proved as long as Wenger keep his job, Arsenal will be the PL laughing stock.

Massive game for Mourinho and Chelsea. After all the talk about Arsenal being failure specialist, a defat will leave Mourinho as the ridiculous character, and no doubt it will mean the League is over for us. and that will end up in 3rd or 4th position (and lets be honest, only a UCL glory will save this season from being a failure, if such thing happens, and that will leave Mourinho as the mediocre one). A draw is a bad result as well, at the end of the month we will be behind Liverpool. To make things short: the game of the season.

I want Chelsea vs United in UCL this season.

The same was said about Barcelona vs Chelsea 2 years ago...

It sounds like Liverpool 05' and Chelsea 12'...

Best possible team. Thanks god, Mourinho got some brains, unlike some forum members who were asking Schurle to start this one.

Well, Im sure you thought Jose would never send him on loan...

People just want changes, after a bad result, people will call for changes, its doesnt matter if the other options are limited ones, in many aspects. Someone here said we should leave both Oscar and Willian on the bench, so our midfield against Gala will be: Mikel, Ramires, Lampard, Schurle, Hazard. I dont know you, but for me it looks a really average and awful midfield for me.

Predictios: Chelsea vs Arsenal: W 3pts Crystal vs Chelsea W 3pts Chelsea vs Stoke D 1pt Swansea vs Chelsea L 0 Chelsea vs Sunderland D 1pt Liverpool vs Chelsea W 3 pts Chelsea vs Norwich W 3pts Cardiff vs Chelsea W 3prs Final: 83 points City: will win their remaining home matches, but will drop points in key matches: -United: 0 points -Liverpool: 0 points -Arsenal: 1 point -Everton: 1 point Final: 83 points I also predict Liverpool to end up with 83 points IF they beat United, because after that game I see them dropping points against Chelsea and West Ham, but we will end up in 3rd because of our poor GD: 1- City 2- Liverpool 3- Chelsea

There is no secret here, Jose will come up with something like: Cech; Ivan, Cahill, Terry, Azi; Mikel, Ramires, Oscar (Lampard), Willian; Etoo. Final result: 3-0

Best time to visit the match section is at the end of day, because its retards free. Its really annoying that people keeps asking for 10 or 20 changes in the HT every time we dont score in the 1st half, and its a pain to read Choulo's comments, or to read that our players are godlikes when the team win, but they are shit and garbage when the team is losing. I think we played a very good 2nd half, and the winner goal was a matter of time. Referee fucked the game, but I really saw such a thing coming...to be fair we had some bold decisions that helped us, like that "penalty" that avoided Mourinho's first defeat at SB, and that penalty+red in last game against Spurs, its was just a question of time to some clueless referee compensate those pasts mistakes. The midfield was ok, some greta links between Hazard/Willlian/Oscar, and for me there is little doubt its our best trio, in few minutes Xurli showed that he still have to improve in many aspects. Matic played a very good match until we had 11 men, but he was just clueless after Willian's red, as was the rest of the defense. Thumbs down to Torres, the man just reached a new low, while the rest of the team played a very good match, he was just a disgrace. I cant believe he still is starting game after everything he did(n't) in past seasons. If you dont saw anything positive in that match, then you just are just asking too much from this team, a team that last season was struggling to get a top 4 finish, and wasnt even good enough to get into the UCL knockout stages...or perhaps you are just a HUGE idiot. :tophat:

????? This place needs an overhaul...the level of stupid and clueless comments became worryingly high.

To be fair, disfraceful is having this kind of behavior here. The game was over after poor refereeing decisions, and Ramires end up as the villain. But thats it, the current TC has the moderators it deserves.

"the only place to be" is easily the biggest twat in Talk Chelsea history. He is the leader of the idiots waves that are coming to TC since 2 years ago.

I'm sure you barely watch our games, then.

DISASTER. Foy is our new enemy. First, Matic goal. He gave the goal, and seconds later changed his mind. I that was never a hand. Second, the 2nd yellow for Willian was never a yellow. Its not Brazil or Spain, where referees give yellows for every foul, we are talking about PL. Third, he didnt see Ramires foul, he gave the red because of Aston Villa's players reaction. Thats really a shame, because we were playing a really good football, and for the win was a matter of time.

That was never a yeloiw. NEVER.

I haaaAAAATE Torres!!!!

I HATE TORRES!

Torres must go!

This DEFINITELY is not a game for Schurle.

Matic is easily our best player today. Torres had many poor games, but he reached a new low. What a useless player.

Ivanovic has a really interesting history as a Chelsea player. I still can remember the game that saved his Chelsea career: First game as a right back, first (and 2nd goal) with a Chelsea shirt. Great Hiddink invention.

??? What are you talking about? Well, it seems I'm alone here. Don't get me wrong here, but I do believe that Mikel years affected many people. I think Matic is a good player, but not as good as some people here make him look. I usually find here things like "Matic is having a godlike performance" after a decent match, now some people believe we are hopeless when he doesn't play, and if we win the title its "quite largely down to Matic", he is "Jesus"... After reading those comments after he joined, I wont be surprised if he gets the Player of The Year, or if he manage to win the Fifa Ballo D'or at the end of the year. My theory is that fans usually fell in love with new players that came to fit a weak link, and as a result they end up thinking those players are better than they really are, because the standards are low. Just take Juan Mata as an example. During his first season, 11/12, he was really inconsistent, as the rest of Villas Boas team, but many people thought he was really great. I remember '12 Fa Cup final, when Mata barely touched the ball, but bizarrely was named the man of the match...well, he arrived when the team was getting really old and lacked creativity, so its not difficult to know the reason why some people thought he was superb. For many years we had Mikel as our DM, just remember that after some games, we had many people saying Romeu was the new Makelele. Matic had one GREAT game, and thats was against City, after that he never came close to reproduce the same kind of performance, but for now I will stay quite, time (results) will change some people's mind (including mine).
