Malouda runs at the midfield, he lays it off for Lukaku who has a crack that hits the outside of the post! Damn. Early goal woulda been nice. Looks like Lukaku started off nice, compared to his last start.

Wow, Everton are serious. At least we'll get to see how the youngsters perform against a full strength mid-table premiership team.

I got a nice 6 skill 19y/o defender from my youth academy.

Mikel or Romeu McEachran or Ramires Sturridge or Lukaku Drogba or Torres Ivanović or Bosingwa Mata or Malouda Turnbull or Hilario Alex or Luiz Bertrand or van Aanholt Lampard or Meireles

Couldn't watch at work, how did he do? Other than whipping in a dangerous cross, wasn't much else I saw in the text commentary.

People saying he should play in the midfield just cause he can attack doesn't make sense. I don't see how he has any qualities to be chosen over all other quality midfielders. He'd be on the bench even more than now if he was mid. The only other position he should be considered for is RB. Hell, I rather play him as a striker before I put him in the midfield.

Psssh. AVB is easily the sexiest on that bench.

I love Chelsea! Any other team in the world would give up, I can't think of any other team in the world that would fight this hard. Luiz might be clumsy, but man is a BOSS!! That overhead kick made me smile and just thought to myself, it's going to be ok. I am proud of these guys. Drogba should have another look at himself, he's supposed to be a leader for the young attackers and you can't abandon your team like he did today.

Should be what my stadium is called in X11. King's Bridge.

City - Balotelli, Silva Arsenal - No one Man U - No one Liverpool - No one

It's funny how it was pretty similar too. Two-footed, no malicious intent, barely any contact and player was trying to pull out of the tackle.

Sweeeeet. FREE MONEY !!! Let's buy Messi!

I don't mind people going off on forums, blogs, facebook and what not. Even if you go overboard on forums, it's wrong, but still ok compared to personal attacks. On twitter, thats a direct attack. Not cool.

I'd be disappointed with any Chelsea fan if they actually believed that story.

He means his cock. LOL!

I don't think we have any plan to actually give him much playing time this year. He'll be loaned out again in January, most likely back to Bolton if he does ok.

I play RB, CB and DM depending on opposition. I'm short but very quick and strong so I can play RB and DM but CB only when opposition isn't Peter Crouch.

Andre = Chuck Norris, they even look alike.

Yep, I want that lineup too except Anelka for Kalou since Anelka only played as a sub at United and has already shown good link up play with Lukaku.

Sturridge was quite poor today. But it's ok, it was his first start against a big team and Evra was amazing really, would have shut down anyone there.

I know we lost but I can't remember the last time I've been this happy with a Chelsea performance. Just wish Torres buried the 2nd chance, for his own sake.

Ortiz is a weird dude and dumbass on top. I have no sympathy for him, who hugs and kisses opponents in the ring after a clear and blatant head-butt? The ref did tell them to fight on, and they touched gloves, what was Ortiz waiting for? How many times does he wanna kiss and make up? And, what was he doing after Floyd got in an offensive stance? Then punched him. Just stood there inviting the second. I am sorry, if you have any experience with Boxing thats the first thing you learn.

I might be wrong, but I think that value isn't fixed. If you give a certain individual playing time and they perform decent, their development value increases. And, if it's over 10 by season end, they get a skill boost for next season. So try to get all your young guys to atleast 10 dev. value.

A couple years ago I would have said him and Ronaldo are close, but now I think he's better than Ronaldo, best of this era and possibly all time.
