Come on lads.

That is my fav drogba goal ever along with this, the best finish I've ever seen: And if you want DD's most memorable moments this is a must:

This amazing strike has to be there: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=koyn6UoH7Jg Heading:

Yeah it is, I was just wondering how you could tell.

I hope we can win this one with a few goals to spare especially that our CL form hasn't been superb so far (Bayern: Good result, not performance; Valencia: Very good performance, average result). This match should be a message to all CL tittle contenders that AVB means business in the CL.

I think the foul is intentional, but the stomp isn't. In all fairness to the ref I didn't realize how bad the tackle was until the third replay.

Last season Florent had 4 assists in 32 games played in all competitions which is really low for a providing midfielder. So he is either not crossing enough or his crossing is really bad. It's nothing personal against Malouda but crossing was never his thing, he always either get on the end of work done on the right or down the middle, or cut in and shoot.

How could you tell it's arabic?

Never heard of him, but it's always good to see young talent enter the club especially that usually only about 1 of 10 young players live to their expectations. We should definitely go for him.

Very promising player, I really hope the rumor is true.

I think that we will put up a strong starting 11 regardless of changes we do to our usual lineup because I believe we have great squad depth with the subs almost as good as the starters. Besides if AVB thinks we could win with our subs then so do I.

That doesn't sound good. Against whom are they playing?

Yeah I'll be really disappointed if he doesn't. He's not making the bench for most matches, and romeu keeps getting picked before him. Maybe he should've gone on loan this season.

I totally agree. Now a days the fullbacks are expected to do the traditional winger deed in addition to their defensive responsibilities.

Good report. We really needed that win yesterday psychologically. Hopefully next week the manchesters draw and we climb to second place.

I noticed he's like a young Lampard but with much more pace. His technique and shoot are excellent I have to say.

He seems very good in many aspects of his game, but I'm not sure he's a modric type player (although I am only judging mostly by youtube vids.)

Maybe Alex instead of Terry if AVB is really taking this game for granted.

I expect AVB to rest a few players: Cech Ferreira-Luiz-JT-Cole Mikel Meireles-Malouda Anelka-Torres-Mata

That's really great news. Watching the game vs Everton, I was absolutely amazed by his stamina and ability to keep making runs down the whole length of the wing for the entire game. Coleman rarely left his own half. It would've been near impossible finding a LB as good as him.

That's great to hear, he seems very promising, hope he can keep this form up.

14?? he looks at least 18. 2m risk? we've taken much bigger risks on 1st team players. Wish him the best of luck at CFC.

Mikel had one of his best performances for the club in my opinion in terms of passing and controlling the tempo. Lampard played very good as well. But Mata really impressed with vision and movement and even, to my surprise, his defensive quality especially in the first half.

I think Danny should be at least third choice for England striker after Rooney and Bent. How Zamora gets picked before him completely baffles me.

Though he was extremely impressive offensively, I am more happy with his defensive performance yesterday. He has showed a new aspect to his game. Mr. Mata just keeps getting more impressive by the game.
