Much better. Some posts that are written here when we lose are better not to be seen. I can come back after the game and have a calm discussion with most of the people actually seeing what I write.

With Drogba back I'd say bet on him

Excuses excuses...perhaps it was an offside...but why didn't we make runs like that? Why didn't we make it tough for the linesmen? No, we played like Stoke City with crosses and longballs. A team who wishes to win CL plays like that against a 6th team in Italy. No matter how good are Napoli, we are supposed to be better. After a couple of minutes last night I was almost certain we would lose. I'm pretty sure Cavani's goal was with his chest/shoulder. That lad can score with his arse with his eyes closed and still look cool.

I meant exactly that. No way we can attack Napoli, open ourselves to their counter attacks and survive...

My secret plan if we drop out of top4 seems unlikely now with yesterday's game. Looks like we won't win CL this year I doubt we can attack Napoli with our poor attack and keep them from scoring with our clumsy defense... Not sure what to make of yesterday's game, but I think we broke down after they got the lead. No Terry to kick our asses and organize the team. Shame really...but it's obvious that we need more fresh blood in the squad. Also, don't forget that we played 3 days earlier and that some players played the whole match so that took a piece of our players also. I remember how sluggish City were when we played them after their CL match. This is all getting annoying now...so boring to watch us now and I have no idea what the future holds...I had high hopes but it likes it's going to be all the same again...

When he went down injured my heart almost stopped. If he gets injured we can say goodbye to CL.

Really nervous. I have a very important test today and I'm gonna need some luck to pass it. If I don't...urgh I won't think about it.

It's a tough position for him. When he was at Academica things were good and he had success. Then he had huge success with Porto and now even half of our fans are against the poor guy. It's not an easy position to be in. We have Eva so don't worry

I really hope not. Is gold on our kit for sure?

I like all 3 of 'em, especially Portugal and Holland. Good work from Nike.

Tell me, do players care more about a Championship team that parks the bus against us in a domestic cup or they care more about the biggest football competition in the world that whole club wants to win? We beat them and it could lift the whole team up. Of course, we can also get trashed as everything is possible in football and if that happens...well let's just say it won't lift the team up I understand it is difficult to believe in Chelsea right now, but if we don't believe no one else will. Even if we lose 5-0 I will still smile and see Europa League badges on Manchester kits and not even Europa League badge on Liverpool ones Arsenal meltdown has begun, and our chances of top 4 finish are not small. Drogba is back. Essien is returning to full form. Ivanovic is back with bang. Cahill has impressed on his 2 appearances. JT will be back soon. Mikel is back. Ramires is back. Sturridge is rediscovering his form. Bertrand will finally get a chance. Have some faith and keep the blue flag flying high! :cfc:

Chelsea vs Man City Some people here: Oh good we are gonna get trashed! Hoping for a draw... Hopefully they don't destroy us... Chelsea win 2-1 Chelsea vs Man United Opstimists: We're gonna lose... God help us... Hoping for a miracle... Chelsea win draw 3-3 after Howard scored for Manu. Man up and show some balls. Someone would think we are about to play Barcelona, not Napoli... :cfc:

Give it a serious consideration, it's fun and it only take a couple of minutes from you

Hmm...perhaps stay with gold and use gold socks?

Sign him and loan him back to Partizan? Yes. Sign him and play him in our reserves? No. Kid will be a star, mark my words. Can't wait to see him play again. Interview with him I translated in case you missed it. Click meh!

Much better then that stupid shirt with radio waves and dumb red color. I always liked gold color on kits

Weren't those Birmingham fans?

MOTM today and one of his best games in a while. Cross was amazing too, good to have him back 100% fit Just gotta love him with his sheer determination and no excuses attitude

Really disappointed with Raul in the last couple of games. As David said, average describes him best. His passing has been horrible and shooting even worse. He does bust his guts every game but that is not enough.

I expected more in our attack out of him today. At least to put some crosses in. He was out of the game for most of the time. Still, no mistakes in defense though.

Indeed. His performances have been much better with Big D on the pitch. Good goal today, instinctive movement and good finishing.

Yeah I know that, but I usually delay setting up tactic for another day and I end up forgetting it and I still won my game for today

I'm starting to be sick of this...for 2 seasons, terrible football and manager's future in doubt. And I am especially sick of trying to understand what is happening behind the scenes. Is AVB a good manager with a shit squad? Is squad against him? Perhaps everything is good but he fails to motivate them? Perhaps Kalou is trying to overtake the dressing room? bla bla bla...one thing I do know is that results are not going our way, boardroom is not pleased and with FFP rules coming we can't afford to miss out on CL and especially this season after which we need to attract new quality players. Only if our stupid board waited 1 more year with Carlo...there was nothing to lose, we would see how AVB fared in CL and perhaps we could get Mourinho or Hiddink later on if Carlo failed again. Fans? Those are not fans I heard and watched. Those are tourists who paid money to watch entertaining football. Our manager is going through the toughest period of his career and what they do? Sing Mourinho's name...instead of outchanting Birmingham fans they sing Mourinho's name. What does that mean to players? Even the fans don't support AVB, why should we? ... At least Ramires, Essien, Mikel and Drogba are back so I don't have to watch clueless blondie and pass'n'shoot maestro Meireles anymore...

YOU CAAN'T SEE MEEEH! Love these vids
