Right so Luiz's first costly mistake in our shirt has arrived. And in a twisted sort of way I'm glad it has. Just takes away some of his heroic aura and helps to avoid that burden of expectation of some brilliance from him everytime he walks out. He will make mistakes, but easily has the potential to go down as the best defender in Chelsea history. Stoke deserved a point to be fair. They showed us what they are all about and we couldn't deal with it. A just result. Moving on, we've got bigger fish to fry midweek. Bring on those jammy bastards!

Who cares. Still the best manager in world football, when his demands are given in to.

His attitude stinks more than his dip in form. As someone who devotes a lot of myself to this club, what I primarily want to see is the players giving their all for the team and shedding sweat, blood and tears. That's what is missing with Malouda at the moment. Just makes you realize the value of guys like the much maligned Kalou who gets a lot of stick inspite of trying every single minute that he's out on the pitch.

Have a good one mate

He picked up a knock while with Spain.

Official lineup : (4-4-2) Cech, Bosingwa, LUiz, Terry, Cole, Ramires, Essien, Lampard, Malouda, Anelka, Drogba subs: Turnbull, Ivanovic, Ferreira, Zhirkov, Mikel, Kalou, Torres

^ That moment for me will always be the one moment that defines Frank - as a player and as a person. Chelsea icon.

Youtube videos can make anyone look good to be fair but this Willian guy is a genuinely good player and I'd welcome him here. Pace, directness, a sweet right peg, strength and enthusiasm. Something you'd be hard pressed to find in the sulky plonker Malouda.

I'm yearning for scrambled eggs on toast right now

Neymar, because of his ability to play across the front 3. But what we really need, is a creative spark in midfield, someone like Dzagoev.

Yes. And let's make Henrique president.

Welcome mate. Dump that 606 shite and make yourself at home on the best Chelsea forum on the internet

There need not be a correlation between minutes played and injuries suffered. Didn't someone get injured earlier in the season by smashing his leg into an airplane trolley? Hilarious

We could do without a separate thread for this.

Carlo owes his trophy to Luiz and his two goals

Hover your mouse pointer over the right bottom corner of your screen and look at the date.

Anelka will start in all probability. He's fresh due to not having played midweek internationals. Won't be surprised if it's Drogba-Anelka.

That's horrible

Happy b-day.

This weekend will be Javier Zanetti's 35th consecutive deby Shame he plays for the wrong Milan

Whatever you say, 'superior' (formerly banned and currently trolling) member Amen. Apologies to the rest of you.

Clearly, you would a lot about baiting someone, hence the completely off topic reference to your (deserved) ban for an unrelated issue. I simple pointed out the meaningless and inflammatory nature of your worthless post. Love how you resort to repetition once the factually incorrect claim in your previous 'retort' was exposed by me quoting the serial number of your off-topic post. You're a pro at trolling, gotta hand it to ya.
