Have that you dirty northern bastards

From 606... posted 1 Minute Ago I wish people would stop criticising Arsenal, and instead applaud Chelsea. Hiddink has got this game spot-on tactically; Arsenal came forward early on, whilst Chelsea sat back and defended. Then, as Arsenal continued to press forward in search of the goal their performance deserved in the first 20 minutes, Chelsea struck, and since then, they've been superb. Arsenal have come forward, allowing Chelsea room to move the ball about with some nice tidy passing. It might not be as pretty as watching the Gunners... but who's winning? Well done to them, been excellent so far. Couldn't have put it any better myself. Although, to be fair, it was me who posted that...

I told you someone was Gunner pay Keep it up Blues, been majestically brilliant so far.

I think Man City's Puma kits looks much better than any of our's in all honesty.

Heard Essien wanted a number change before this season.

Signed.

I think people who have supported Chelsea for a while will actually appreciate that this has infact been a good season for the club. Back when I began to support the club back in 1997, I could never have imagined us playing in a Champions League semi final, and back then, third place in the Premier League was a massive achievement - and in my opinion, it still is. Of course we can be disappointed after the way we were so cruelly knocked out of the Champions League, but we've stil got the FA Cup final to look forward to and if we win that, it will prove to be a very good season for us. We've hardly hit rock bottom. Look at Leeds United, who are in a state financially. They've hit their rock bottom. They were in a Champions League semi final only seven years ago and only yesterday they lost in their play-off first leg to Millwall and have got a lot of work to do to battle back into the Championship. That's rock bottom. I can understand your disappointment after the season started off with such promise and I agree that we can do what Barcelona have done and come back all the stronger, but when I began to support the club this is the sort of season I dreamed we'd one day have - genuinely challenging for one or two or even three trophies each term. In that sense, I'm happy, and I'm not willing to let our recent success in the Abramovich years allow me to become 'spoilt' as a fan and demand and expect more from each player. Don't get me wrong, I love seeing the players win games and lift trophies but you have to appreciate what we are doing now, other teams can only dream about. Chelsea needs to become a long-term project once more, however. Sure, we can go and splash the cash but we need to develop a relationship with a young manager with fresh ideas who is willing over a period of one to two years to freshen up the squad, not just so we can continue to challenge for honours for the next couple of seasons, but for the half-dozen campaigns after that as well. But as it stands, I believe we have the foundations set - the foundations that can lead us into this 'new dawn' and truly dominate English football. It certainly is a very exciting time to be a Chelsea fan. It's good to support the club now because of the success we've had recently, but it could become even better...

And yet even when he fell out of favour under Mourinho he came out of nowhere and scored important goals. Plus, in the Champions League, he's as good as anyone.

Would love them to come in AFTER they've seen out their contracts at West Ham, which I can see both of them doing, since they are both honest professionals.

He meant when you type the letter 'U' it appears as 'You' It's a filter Jim had on, which I've taken off. I'm not sure how you change the settings for the word filters so we'll have to see what he can do; but for nows I've removed it.

Welcome.

They will. Don't you worry.

Beating Arsenal will help push memories of that 93rd minute to the back of my mind...

I know JT is one for helping the young lads at the club, but that looks like it might be going a bit too far You can imagine the headlines... TERRY CHEATS ON WIFE WITH TEAMMATE Blues skipper shagging Di Santo up the arse

Right then might get another topic going at some point later this month

Fucking spot on. Been consistent since Hiddink's come in, and he has got the ability to make that killer pass for a goal.

If he leaves with a winner's medal for the FA Cup, then he'll go down in Chelsea folklore.

How the fuck can anyone not include the actions of the officials? Is this bloke off his fucking trolley?

22 goals in 75 games is hardly what I'd call a disaster.

Hasn't Aguero got a £60 million buy out clause or something though?

I second that.

Wish we'd just let him have one more season ffs.

He's valued at around €45 million, apparently.

I reckon we will more than certainly be motivated. We've been unfairly knocked out of Europe at the final hurdle. To quote Chelsea TV - Someone's Gunner pay.

Anyone reckon we should go for this again next month?
