Im sure there will be a few songs should they get knocked out of the Mickey Mouse cup tomorrow night lol.

Quote taken from an interview that was printed in the sun on friday.

7 out 7 in according to Ancelotti so... Out: Deco Ballack Ferriera Belletti Hilario J Cole Kalou In: Mancienne Matic Kakuta Borini Bruma Aguero Van Der Vaart/Ribery?

Idiots

Looks like Belletti will be the natural stand in, or Ballack.

^^Agreed

Haha yup, it seems, at the minute anyway, that we win when Drogba doesnt play LOL. DROP THE DROG hahaha.

Collymore is a prat.

Were capable of playing some brilliant football, we've just got to concentrate and play our own game, dictate the play and we'll win all 3 games and be FA cup winners too. Not bad for a team full of old men, money grabbers and serial shaggers hahaha.

All im saying is that SOMETIMES he can panic if being chased down. I've seen a number of games where he has slided clearances. I'm taking nothing away from him, he is a world class keeper, one of the best on the planet. Relax.

All we have to do is win our last 3 games, we can do it.

Off the top of my head the game vs Manure a couple a weeks ago, about 4-5 clearences going out into touch but never mind. So glad Petr is playing well, he is one of the best GK's in the world.

Cech is a world class keeper. Is only bad point is his kicking, but even thats better than Hilario's LOL.

I dont think he'll risk Ash from the start. Bruma wont start either. It will either be: Ivan - Alex - Riccy - Yuri or Paolo - Ivan - Alex - Yuri

I can see it happening TBH.

JT is an outstanding defender but he was awful on Saturday in a game we REALLY needed to win, I started this thread to see what peoples opinions are on his performances this season. Anyone can see he hasnt been playing as well as he has in previous season's, but I wouldnt go as far as stripping the captaincy or dropping him, as I said, the one game ban may come as a blessing for him to recharge his batteries and get his head right. World class players dont turn shite overnight. He has had some great performances this season (WHU away and Hull away for example) but he has had some bad ones too (AV away, Everton away) and his performance on Saturday was embarressing. Whatever it is thats wrong in JT's head, I hope gets sorted during the next 2 weeks ready for Liverpool. I hope he has a good World Cup and wins back the hearts of the nation (a last minute winner would do the trick or something) and then he can concentrate on his football and come back bigger and stronger next season. The abuse he gets must affect him, I feel for the guy.

Usually I say things like 'one man doesnt make a team' but in this instance... GREAT NEWS!

I really hope this is just a dip in form, and that he is back to his best ASAP. Stripping him of the captaincy wont help, dropping him wont help either. All he needs is to have a little word with himself, sit out the Stoke game and re-charge his batteries.

I'm still fuming about our performance, in particular John Terry's. Cech - Excellent game, kept the score down Ferriera - Awful Terry - Awful Alex - Better than Terry Zhirkov - Got forward well Mikel - No comment Lampard - Couldnt impose himself on the game Deco - Was he even playing? J Cole - Fucking awful Malouda - Probably our best outfield player Drogba - Didnt look interested Ballack - Some neat passing Ivanovic - Steady, a welcome return Anelka - Should have just stayed on the bench The most embarressing thing yesterday was towards the end of the game our players throwing their toys out of the pram ie. Drogba pushing Huddlestone, Zhirkov kicking out, JT Diving in and pulling people down. Boys you better sort yourselves out, dont throw it away!!!

Yeah good point. We really need a good performance in our next game to take into the trip to Anfield. The Scousers ALWAYS up their game when Chelsea come to town and we need to be on form to get a result.

I think JT takes his place in the team for granted these days, he NEEDS to up his game. There is no denying that he loves the club, and he is a good defender, but some forwards have found him out pace wise (Defoe yesterday for example). I agree that I hope missing the next game will be a blessing, he can get his head straight ready for Liverpool. We all love JT, thats a given, but he has made TOO MANY mistakes this season, and he HAS cost us points (Everton away, Tottenham away). I want whats best for CFC, not whats best for John Terry.

Cech had a blinder... Lampard looked like he cared... Every other player was SHIT. Its going to take some world class man management from CA to get their heads up for the final 4 games of the season.

Would have been 6 or 7 if it werent for Cech.

Well Terry is suspended so thats a good thing. Paolo - Ivanovic - Alex - Zhirkov

Football is all about confidence, in our last 2 games we have had none, and after Utd beat Citeh, they will be on a high.
