I just want to see improvement to be honest, even if we do finish 4th, i'm sick of the lack of good football, we havent played good football in ages and i would like to see something nice from the team, cause i'm getting quite sick of us struggling every match and having to pull our fingers out from conceding and having to get back into the game all the time. This happens in almost every game... i think that would be far better than a trophy, but then again... if we did play good football i doubt we would be finishing 4th.

The top four in the table at the moment, that's how i think the season will finish. And yes i think it's out of us and Liverpool for an automatic spot. Liverpool in my opinion have a shit defence but a good attack, they seem to be able to score a lot of goals, but also concede quite a few too. Unless we buy a creative midfielder this season, and have many playing top form and sort the defence line out, i think we will finish above them.

Oh shit international break i forgot about that, oh well maybe he might be then, i certainly hope so.

I very much doubt he will be back unforutunately, they are still wondering if he will manage to be back just before the United game.

Hilario Bosingwa-Ivanovic-Terry-Cole Ramires-Mikel-McEachran Sturridge-Torres-Mata And i would like to see Romeu come on for Mikel later, and Anelka for Sturridge, depending on how Sturridge plays, and maybe Lukaku, but depends how well Torres is playing.

THIEF!!!, DAT WAS MINE!!!

He wont, but i still think he can be usefull, Torres still hasn't scored a goal in the premier league where he was assisted from a long ball or a cross, that's how poor the midfield has been. If we can assist him, which means buying a creative midfielder then i think we can still get a lot out of him, but i do agree, we wont get the torres he once was out of him. It was Abramovich's own decision, and he will regret it, but we have to make the most out of him.

Okay i respect your decision, and if that's what you think then fair enough, it's your opinion.

I shouldn't reply to this because i think this is just going to go on and on and on... but just to let you know, people are different, like Terminator X said, Carlo killed Kakuta by not giving him a chance, also with Borini, Borini never got a chance, i also liked Stoch but he never got a chance in premier league football either... but don't judge Lukaku on these people, only one of them on there was a striker, and Lukaku has proved himself much more than Borini in my opinion. And i think Lukaku is a better player than Borini, this is football, anything happens, everythings a gamble, just don't be so miserable... haha miserable this is coming from me... the most negative person on this forum... now Justin that's saying something lad.

Okay look Justin... i know you fail to jump on bandwagons and stand your own ground, but sometimes you just be too negative, if this is you just being honest then your even worse than me when it comes to negativity because i am very negative, i'm just not a confident person, because when i am confident nothing ever works out. Or are you just arguing because you want to?. At the end of the day this is a forum, not the whole Chelsea crowd or the media, were not hyping him up were proud of him. And i don't think he was excellent, he came on and did well, however when he was holding the ball up he should of made 2 passes to the side and he would of created wonderful play, even one on ones. But he looked very confident, and that's what i like about him, his diving header was a very good effort, he even gave a good option for Juan Mata to square the ball to him, so he was spot on with his positioning. I think we all have a right to be happy with Lukaku, i wont compare him to any player i think he's his own, even though he is similar to others, but so is everyone really. At the end of the day hes very young and did well for that age, but i don't think you should be so negative about it and especially say 'meh' like you don't even care, it's pretty disrespectful from you to be honest.

I know this is offtopic, but did you just get an RT from Chris Cohen?, i could of swore he mentioned your name.

Bastion Schweinsteiger is an unreal player, one hell of a player, would love him to come to Chelsea, but i see don't see him coming here, perhaps if i heard something then i would have some faith... but nothing at the moment.

Yes he got an assist, but tbf it was because of Bosingwas long range effort, it wasn't anything special from Lampard. But Lampard wasn't that bad this game, he didn't give the ball away, only once i think and did make a few decent passes, but he's not good enough to be a starter for Chelsea, we need a better player in there who can make magic and create play, i think we are now sorted on the wings, hopefully anyway... since we now have Mata, but a creative midfielder is needed, Lampard cannot knock out long balls or long passes, he probably could but he lacks the vision. And Styles i do totally agree with you about Terry being to slow, he can't play in this high defense line, how many times have we been caught out with these long balls?, shit load of times, if we play like this against United were fucked...

lionsden has a point, don't let the scoreline fool you, there's been very little changes and i don't blame people if they havent seen any change at all, because there's still tiny magic coming from our midfield, and weak crosses from the wingers, until Mata came on of course. We need a creative midfielder and it's been said for ages and i would think that's our problem solved. Cause i wont expect Lampard to be kicking out very good passes all the time.

Torres had no assistance today, but he didn't make things easier for himself either, he gave up a lot of the time and could of been a lot quicker in some situations, however when Mata came on he got 2 chances, both of them were headers. I agree with you though, creativity is not back at all, we need a creative midfielder which we have been shouting out for for a long time, and that player needs to come now in this window, even if it's not Modric, get someone who is at Chelsea level and can play a good pass. But Torres as our main striker, Lukaku played very well when he came on, he should definitely be on the bench. And Mata on that left wing with Sturridge on the right, and if we don't get a creative midfielder then please McEachran-Mikel/Romeu-Ramires, with Lampard on the bench. I was very pleased with Anelka, and have been recently, he creates magic and works very hard, Anelka still is one of my favourite players, but since January last season i've just given up on him, but he seems to be playing really well still. Malouda was decent but he creates nothing on that left wing, besides crossing it low in the middle of the box behind where the players are running in just for the defender to clear it... and this happens all the time. I think Ramires should be encouraged to move forward a bit too, he usually creates something amazing, his pace and control is a gift he has, and he should use it more often, and if in some matches he seems to be giving the ball away then make him stop, i don't see any harm in it tbf. However Terry was pretty shocking in my opinion, the defence line was, Bosingwa was a bit loose on the line but he was brilliant as he has been in his past matches offensively. But we still have a problem, and that is midfield, we need a creative midfielder and i think we are set for the season if you ask me. Defence just needs to be sorted out but no new players, because defence has been shocking since the West Brom game.

You kept to your word and i have with mine, i am very dissapointed with the performance, but when Mata came on, and Lukaku they played great. Now i totally agree, Lampard shouldn't of played the full 90 minutes, but to be fair Mikel has had better games, and so has Ramires, however what i love about ramires is that he has sudden moments with his pace and just turns the defence inside out and creates magic.

I agree, Torres isn't sharp, however Lukaku lacked a bit of play side passing which could of opened up into one on ones, however this is his first game and i'm not going to knock him, im so proud of Mata and Lukaku.

Juan Mata in my opinion changed that game more than the red card. Lukaku was looking very sharp, if he had more time he would of scored, Mata could of squared to him, so his positioning is good. Thank you Mata, thank you for putting a smile on my face.

JUAN MATA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man if Norwich score...

We need Mata to gain confidence, that Assist really would of been brilliant.

How the fuck did he miss that!?

Very good attempt Lukaku, shame it was off target.

Thank god for that.

What does that have to do with anything???, we havent played any good football this whole match... our goal was from a long range effort, i think this has been a poor performance from us. And i hope Drogbas okay, you guys sure he wasnt moving?.
