I also heard a rumor once that Bill Clinton named his daughter Chelsea after the club....I didn't believe it though

I have a feeling that AVB will surprise everybody with the lineup somehow. If you think about it he hasn't put identical lineups in any of our matches so far.

I think if we can slow down the tempo the game will be ours. If it turns out to be a fast open game, I doubt we can match their pace.

Marking: 6/10 Finishing: 11/10

Maybe so (though not in the defense area since they don't have choices), but they lost momentum.

Unfortunately not what we signed him to do. And to be realistic he hasn't been doing that in all the matches either, thus being inconsistent. I believe he can still succeed though and that every chelsea fan wants him too.

I agree. Even more so seeing that they just escaped a defeat to benfica.

Performance wise: Mata, he was absolute class in the movement and passing. Achievement wise: Torres, his 2 assists were crucially needed.

With all do respect, I think you need to watch that second half again. I thought he was very involved in every play. And all the analyzers of the match on the channel I'm watching can't stop saying how Frank was the best man on the field since he came on.

Are you serious?

I'm pleased with the overall performance. Bayer played a great game make no mistake about that. They have a very strong and quick young midfield, we did very well to beat them especially without Terry and lampard and anelka for most of the match. Ballack gave them alot of stability in the middle and was able to slow us down with his experience. Would have loved to see him play against lampard who by the gave the best performance in a long time. Hope when our experience player return on sunday our performance will be even better.

any one else see in the highlights of AVB Lampard hitting on the medical staff girl Eva in the background?

Torres showed that he's a world class player and that he doesn't give a shite about what all the media says....he could've gotten the goal but instead he chose the more guaranteed assist.

Torres just fucking amazing!! sooooooooo selfless!

arsenal just conceded...lol

mata never complains although torres should've put him through 3 times.

we're gonna get another on the break..I can feel it

that was a clean goal! retarded ref

our defense worries me a bit with Ivan and Alex

is it me or is lampard everywhere?

mata great shots...lacking power though......again that keeper is getting on my nerves!!

LUIZZZZZZ the best fucking finisher in our squad!!!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I HATE THAT KEEPER!!!!!

Torres very poor cross again...why is Torres on the wings so often??!
