Kieran.

Self-explanatory, I guess. Pretty decent test.

Cech Essien - Cahill - Luiz - Cole Mikel - Lampard Sturridge* - Mata - Malouda Drogba *Depends how well Sturridge plays this month. Switch with Kalou if necessary. Malouda must start, imo. Cole and Malouda would shut down Robben.

It was smart in its own right, but it backfired badly. Two of them got booked for dissent which easily could have been avoided.

It's weird how uneducated people are about marijuana...

Every Chelsea goal scored in the semifinal was in stoppage time.

Anyone else like the third kit from this year a lot more now?

No surprises and no one can blame them.

I'm always very quiet when I watch games...I just whispered "come on, come on..." and when he scored I put my head in my hands and felt the years of heartbreak and injustice lift off my shoulders. Joy, shock, relief. Great combination of emotions.

Interesting. I don't believe in superstition and whatnot, but it's interesting.

Drogba will step in as the vocal leader to rally the troops. My only worry tbh is Bosingwa at RB.

He hasn't scored since the 09-10 season.

Ramires' for quality of finish and importance. Great goal.

If we win the CL, I expect Hazard to come in with De Bruyne loaned out.

Athletic Bilbao v. Atletico Madrid - 2012 Europa League Final

Good.

UEFA will not change itsrules to allow the six suspended Chelsea and Bayern Munich players to play in the Champions League final despite appeals for clemency from international players' union FIFPro.

No worries, if we can tie 2-2 at the Camp Nou with 10 men, we can win there.

Still hasn't fully sunk in yet...

Terry is and always will be my favorite Chelsea player.

Chelsea FC 6 - 1 QPR POST-MATCH DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS Sunday 29 April 2012 Premier League Stamford Bridge - 1330 KO

Yep, we played them in the quarterfinals of the Champions League in 2004-05. It was a brilliant matchup; I believe it finished 6-5 on agg. My favorite Drogba header was in the 2ng leg, found at 1:40 in this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etKJm7i0K6I

It's worth a shot, I think the clubs will talk to UEFA.

"What happened?"

One of my favorite players in the squad for a while now, I'm glad he's starting to get some praise. He was vital in both legs. Lampard and Mikel have made quite the duo.
