The conversation was fair and direct with the players,' Villas-Boas said. 'They are top professionals and their professionalism and integrity is never in question but on recent results and form we have decided to try to get the group together and we have decided to assign different training times for them. 'The transfer requests were accepted but it doesn't mean it will happen and if it doesn't happen they will return to full training.'

Not exactly the best time to announce that. Hope it doesn't overshadow our win, even if many saw it as inevitable.

Pathetic what the interviewer picked up in Pardews interview, at least he thanked AVB for quickly apologising.

Gave him some bad ass looks, and the interviewer was trying to focus on Luiz incident. AVB picked up on it instantly and said you never mentioned the decisions that went up against us last time (QPR). Interviewer quickly got defensive and changed topic.

AVB apoligising it, and said he did at the time.

LOL AVB ripping the skysports interviewer.

Really it was a thrilling encounter that finally went our way. We played well, and deserved it overall imo.

Wow I'm really impressed by Mata's english!

Players really stepped up. Energy single one vindicated their selection and subsequent introductions. Well Done AVB. LOL Mata and Drogba height comparison.

Hopefully the start of a good December Month.

Sturridge 3-0 !!!!! Deserved goal!

AHAHAHA KALOU LONG LIVE KALOU LOL

We couldve scored so many, Krul is just...

Oh man what a clean hit, bar is shaking. Come on Chelsea!

OH No FOR MATA!

Terry off the line.

OH NO KALOU!

Ah Mata, good work sturridge. Unlucky

LOL look how Lampsy is sitting on the bench! haha

Good move AVB!

Torres bouncing up and down, he really wants on!

good 1st half, ssshhh Newcastle fans...

Sturridge. Krul is on great form

DROGBA has vindicated his selection somewhat! Even though he shouldve scored another. Mata is exceptional.
