I'd rather see Sturridge in for Kalou but I'll accept it Ash vs Theo will be interesting. Come On You Blues! :cfc:

Perfect game to find it I say

exactly. But there's no chance it'll happen :\

Don't worry! We've got 'Tries hard but fails to score' Kalou & 'Will only get 10minutes to do something" Sturridge

Works in our favour more than anything. That's 44-years of experience Very excited about this game, it's the first time in a while I'll wear my Lampard shirt knowing he'll play

Ashley Young anyone?

A centre back by far. Look, we know our front 5 are capable of producing goals, we just need to look at our goal scoring form from August-October to realise that. We just need to get that front 5 combining again, Lampard and Essien will play together for the first time since September which will be a real boost for us. Malouda looked the most threatening from all our players, Kalou's working hard as always, he just needs to finish more. The Drog.. Well against Tottenham (when he came on) he was better than he's been for a while and the malaria should be out his system by now, meaning he should be ready to fire. Once we have things sorted at the back, we'll have the impetus to attack more, where the emphasis has always been.

A central defender is a must. With Carlo proving he does not trust Bruma he needs to buy at least 1 defender.

Time get Vince Cable on the scene

Holy fuck I just realised that!! That's ridiculous, Arsenal's getting the same too, who made this fixture schedule?!

Spot on. The only reason I see Bosingwa getting the nod over Ferreira because we play more counter attack football vs Arsenal more than any other team. Aside from that I see no reason why Paulo shouldn't play over Bosingwa (especially considering their attack)

Easy mistake

Not sure about this when I read it, considering it's the Daily Mail. I don't think we should take this years into account to be honest, because we've shaved a huge amount off the wage bill, plus we've got that lucrative sponsorship deal with Adidas & Singha Beer. Roman's got a tough decision to make. If they're right at the Daily Mail (..ha.) Roman's invested near £800million and lost £500million.

I guess it's time to say goodbye to Jack Cork.. The Clarets haven't ruled out the possibility of adding Cork to the books permanently themselves, with Chelsea thought to be looking for a fee of around £2million. "We've discussed a lot of things with Chelsea, but I won't go into figures," said Laws. "If any clubs are sniffing around, it means Jack is playing well. That is a good thing, because we've got him. "We have him until the end of the season, unless someone puts in a firm offer to Chelsea, which they agree to. "The simple case is there has to be a permanent move if Jack leaves this football club. "We can then counter that, or maintain what we're doing now, which is chipping away slowly, but surely. "One thing in our favour is Jack loves it here, and it would take some club to move him. "We're doing everything possible to make this a more permanent move. "We're being very patient and doing the right things. "Jack likes that. He sees a future away from Chelsea maybe, and it would take some club to take him away from us."

I've been told Fabregas & Van Persie will start for Arsenal on Monday. This will be a closer game now, we all remember the damage Van Persie did to us in the distant past..

Fixed that line for you

Haha fair do's people.. I can see the general consensus here is people didn't really like Joe Cole. I still think he was a fantastic player for us and gave us his all.. For me he's a legend for the 7years he was here.. Let's not forget this gem of a goal though http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ly1nUJgBffs - "Take a bow son"

I, personally, believe Chelsea fans are just bitter he chose to leave But I do understand this view :chelsea2:

I like the official website's new media player

Dare I say.. Our best XI?

Ah ok!

Surely those can't be right? According to wikipedia, in all competitions: 03/04 - 50 04/05 - 46 05/06 - 46 06/07 - 24 07/08 - 54 08/09 - 19 09/10 - 39 (< though most of those were late substitute appearances)
