Anyone else starting to dread these games on some level? We're being built up so much; it just feels like an over-inflated balloon about to be burst.

Can he play in the pivot?

What's with his creepy expressions It puts the lotion on it's skin ....

He certainly loved the Inter fans more than Chelsea fans at one point of time - [quote]I thought I had reached the height of emotion with Chelsea's fans, but Inter's supporters are even better,' Mourinho said. 'I'm in love with Inter and these fans, not Italian football Wonder what he thinks now.

The only Ronaldo. The other is Cristiano.

I wonder what goes through his head when he watches a 36 y.o Drogba bang them in. He was supposed to be the one who replaced Didier but it's turned out the other way.

Torres would be in a casket and Diego would be in prison for homicide.

Criminal that there's no Azpi either.

Some extraordinarily ordinary names there.

It's bloody scary the numbers he's putting up. 75 UCL goals at 27 ... he'll probably end up with ~125, and that's never getting bettered.

Dare I say it yet? R.I.P November.

Who scored ratings : Schalke 6.7, Chelsea 7.2 :wank:

Best performance of the season. Not just the scoreline but the circumstances in which we went about it. Completely bossing a German team away from home in the style we did represents the next stage in this side's evolution. Fantastic attitude straight from the start. Good time to be a Chelsea fan. P.S. Only unbeaten team across domestic and European competition now !

The idiots at whoscored somehow rated that first half performance just a 6.8

Fabregas is so good, he even assists opponents.

The most clinical goalscorer around in all of Europe currently : Not bad otherwise either - joint 3rd overall in terms of goals scored (11), behind Ronaldo (20) and Aguero (12); 2nd overall in terms of goals per appearance (1.10), behind Ronaldo (1.82); 4th overall in terms of goals per 90 mins (1.18), behind Ronaldo (1.83), Neymar (1.34) and Aguero (1.22) Yeah it's not great. In fact he's among the worst in those aspects (turnovers and dispossessions) across big strikers in Europe this season : He's improving, though. His numbers per 90 mins last season were 3.92 (dispossessions) and 3.07 (turnovers).

One Di Matteo, One Di Matteo! One Di Ma-tt-eooo, There's only one Di Matteo!

My favourite activity after every Arsenal fuck up is to look for their videos. Puerile as fuck but also damn hilarious.

Sorry but that's rubbish. We have discarded him (quite rightly, IMO) in favour of the best talent in the world and he is entitled to look out for himself. That's what professionals are supposed to do, not twiddle thumbs till an offer comes along that won't aggravate people on an internet forum who don't understand how the concept of legacy works. If Cech doesn't feature in Chelsea's scheme of best interests, why should they feature in his? There's no disrespect or slight on either side; it's simply business.Having said all that, I would prefer he doesn't move to Arsenal for the very simple sporting reason that he's still young for a goalkeeper and has more than enough quality to improve them significantly - and by extension - hurt us. This isn't like Lamps at all, he was a pensioner and that won't hurt Chelsea in the long run, regardless of the goal at Etihad. Money is immaterial - we don't need it and goalies as a rule aren't costly anyway, even the top ones.
