Don't forget we still have Romeu who seems to be doing well at Valencia even under new manager if reports out of Spain are correct as well.. we may have some very talented mid options in the very near future

Match Winner he is turning into for us.. his goals seem to catapult the teams mentality to go for the W.. Loving what I am seeing from the Belgian

Congrats on 209 Big Pete!! :blue scalf: :blue scalf:

Average for most of the game and did work pretty hard pressing defenders.. Just happy he got the goal .. now kick on Nando if he can play this poor and keep scoring and we get the wins I have no issues with him... Fair play to you sir!

Either way we know the strikers we have are not good enough to propel us to domestic and european glory.. we just have to make due whether it be Torres, Ba or Eto'o it would be much more beneficial that we send them good vibes to kick on to at the very least top 3 finish in PL and Semi final appearance in CL... when the summer comes around at least 2 of 3 won't be here any longer and we can go from there

No clear love for Eto'o either but when he has decent performances you can be found there getting on him.. I defend Chelsea players not Torres not Eto'o ..anyone who puts on the blue shirt and gives me an effort is alright with me.. I agree we need new strikers and if you read my above post instead of just slagging off Eto'o every chance you get you would see that

Your clear dislike for Eto'o is almost as annoying as the ppl who slag Torres even when he is decent

Eto'o never really got into the match he wasn't awful either.. Our strikers are poor all 3 but Chelsea was never a team built by having the worlds best strikers scoring 30 goals a campaign so I'm not really surprised that they aren't scoring.. I'm more upset that when they get the 1 or 2 opportunities our strikers get a game they not scoring at least 1.. And that goes for Torres Eto'o and Ba

I think any abuse he gets today is for past transgressions cause he was not bad two good saves made by the keep and he gets called terrible...

Thank you it was a cameo and he had to very good opportunities stopped by some good keeping.. I thought I was the only one who noticed this.. And I'm not even saying he was world beater but to come in the thread and slag him and he was decent when he came on..

still to my point to saves by the keeper.. I think he could have squared the shot for Ramires but he is a striker and is too shoot on net. Your video only shows the ending actions but not how he got into that position the running off the ball the outside of the foot pass to catch Willian in stride down right flank.. Like I said above I think you are being a little harsh on him today in his cameo

What made him terrible today? Just as a point of reference.. because the video showed shows a good and lucky toe by the keeper and a good save low... That was definitely not poor play on Torres part.. think you are being a little harsh on him today

very true

Lampard and Luiz cycling ball in middle fantastically getting it to the AMs quickly causing Pool all sorts of problems..

Now now everyone let's not fight each other and let's get upset with the opponents... Up the Chels!!!

never do this but found it very interesting... @TransferSourcesBorussia Dortmund are willing to let Ilkay Gundogan go for offers around £25million. [sky Sports]

I think his point was to the people who are not happy with our league position more care about what our opposition is doing in their games.. you have the right attitude but I as well am finding a lot of people who I won't use the word plastic but are maybe supporting just through the good times... and when the results are still in our favour but a little shaky we have complaints..

so the team finishing is poor..this is the only reason we have no been thrashing teams by 4 and 5 goals.. when we win you are upset when we lose you are upset.. it just makes no sense.. who cares if we are winning ugly we didn't win very pretty in 04-05 we had some good games where we battered the opposition but a lot of 1-0 and 2-1 wins and I bet no one was complaining then..

DL when plays often has to make up for the lack of steal and ability to win a midfield our team has had over the last 3 years so he has to step up and try and make a play further up the pitch then back off until our 18 yard box.. If we had more capable midfielders playing in front of our back 4 both CBs would have a much easier time at it.. The opposition far too many times walks right down the middle with no pressure from from our "pivot" I have seen more good and great games from Luiz than absolute poor performances and for me I still believe his qualities are something you don't just ship off.. I just find it funny that when he plays well none of the people complaining about average performance were calling for his head so typical of a "what have you done for me lately fan" ...

this makes stoke result that much more upsetting.. we could be top of the table right now.. but will take the 3 pts and 2 pts back of the leaders right now

I really like this lineup and if Mourinho played this it may be a true changing of the guard

I actually thought he was pretty good for not getting much game time.. that ball to Hazard was delicious

i agree but take what we can get right now and kick on

Everton did us a Solid.. we are still in this boys

Not saying DL has been faultless this season in his play.. But when he is in the team moves the ball better.. I feel safer with an attacker running at the back four with Luiz there than I do with Cahill.. We can't rush him but if we really want to make it deep in any of the competitions we are in we need him back starting game after game with Terry to build that partnership up like he had under Carlo when Luiz played his best I feel... Its all fine and dandy to play safe when you are top of the table by many points but we can't afford to play it save arsenal is still with in touching distance and we need solidarity in the back to make up those points... If you look at the Arsenal backline that was the same 4 that were leaking goals a season ago and now look at their defensive record.. We definitely have the players we just need to execute game after game and not take any opposition lightly..
