Mikel is a great player, but he can't be a starter in our current midfield. Ramires can't be benched obviously, he is in great form. Essien's returning to his old form and you can't play Mikel instead of him. It is impossible to find a place for him in the team's starting eleven.

I've just watched a video of this guy's skills on YouTube and he has impressed me. If we get him the level of my hapiness will be the same as when we got Torres. He should definitely join us, and I hope he does.

Luiz benched, what a joke.

I hope we never change our stadium. I love Stamford Bridge. But if they increased the capacity that'd be awesome.

Fuck off mate.

This.

There's two ways that Torres can get his first Chelsea goal. He either gets his hair cut like in the World Cup, or Benayoun plays.

Agreed, there is only one Super Frank. Whenever he leaves the club or quits his career, I will cry. Simply because I would not be able to accept the fact that I won't see Frankie playing again. Players like him make football a wonderful sport.

He's 24 today. :cfc:

Great man. I have always liked Ferreira for his personality and behaviour. His loyalty to the club has made me like him even more. He's not a great footballer, but he's not crap either. He's won 3 League titles in his English footballing career, something that Steven Gerrard never will.

Welcome to TC mate. You make awesome vids.

Mourinho belongs to Chelsea's past, not Chelsea's future.

Petr Cech, no doubt.

http://www.bragafut.com/artigos/art18.pdf So this is how things go behind closed doors it seems. Quite interesting.

Premiership no. I don't think we'll win it, I don't think we'll get a win at Old Trafford. As for the Champions League, this year is our year definitely.

I strongly believe that in the first game Benayoun and Torres play together, Fernando will get his first goal. In the 7 games Torres has played for us, the only game where he had serious chances to score was the one versus Copenhagen away, in which he was unlucky. He received no service in the other 6 games.

We need you, so you can assist to Fernando and he finally gets his first goal.

Cech 8 - 100% confident and correct in his interceptions, did his job perfectly. Ivanovic 7 - Made some very important tackles and showed his great defensive skills once again. Terry 9 - As always, led the team and was great defensively, made no mistakes. Great performance from the captain. David Luiz 10 - Scored another very important goal for us, made no mistakes at the back and always manged to prevent City from creating chances, on the air and on the ground. Ashley Cole 8 - As always, good runs forward and solid at the back, shows why he's still the best LB in the world, even though he's getting old he never shows it on the pitch. Essien 8 - The old bison is back definitely. A key player in our midfield, played very well. Ramires 9 - His goal and his run was impressive. Brilliant player. Love seeing him with the ball. Lampard 7 - Not at his best today, his shots weren't the usual threatening ones. Malouda 6 - Definitely not the Malouda of last season, never wins a one versus one battle, can't beat his opponents and his assisting and his deliveries were quite poor. Kalou 7 - He performed how I expected him to. Played much better in the first half, where he was quite dangerous and quick with the ball in his feet and created some good chances. Torres 7 - Played much better than he did against Man U or against Blackpool, but I don't think that he has adapted with the way the team plays yet. Good performance, he definitely should have played 90 mins, he could have probably scored. SUBS Anelka 6 - Didn't do too much, but didn't play too much. Drogba 7 - He came on from the bench against both of the Manchester sides and was key to our comeback in both games. Assisted for the first goal which was the important one. Good play from Didier. Zhirkov 6 - Same as Anelka. Didn't play much, so didn't have the chance to do anything impressive.

Yeah, such a big shame. But Alex's back though.

Never thought that Torres would fail to score for 7 games. I'm a bit disappointed, especially because it was his birthday and I wanted him to score so bad, he should've played 90 minutes, but I support Carlo on this one. His changes led to the goals. We won and the club can party now.

YES! GET IN!! Big, big three points, and a thoroughly deserved win, full dominance. David Luiz and Ramires, no doubt the club's future. Ramires's run, amazing! Great goal.

CMON CHELSEA Less than 20 mins left.

This definitely means no 90 minutes for Torres.

This is great news. But Kalou starting instead of Drogba and Anelka, wtf is Carlo thinking?

To all who say that John Terry shouldn't be England's captain because he's not a good example, I say FUCK OFF. England must be proud now that they have a captain who does it to women, unlike Rio Ferdinand, who gets fisted by Carlos Tevez in his arse.
