11 minutes gone, no real chances yet.

Calf strain, or so I hear.

Not yet, will post some as and I when I get any.

Cech's out?!? Shit, Carlo was absolutely terrible in midweek...

Totally deserved, and long may his form continue.

Manager of the month, despite them losing to Spurs?

Thiago is a great player, according to my Brazilian friend. Very much in the Dunga mold, he normally plays as a deep-lying midfielder for his club.

The guy who wrote that response on CFCnet should be knighted. Spot on. Even Wenger is defending him!

Personally, I think DD11 should be handed a fine and given a ban, but look what happened in the first place... some moron threw a coin at Didier and could have blinded him. The crowd had tried to wind up Drogba all game and the northern numpties achieved that, and his natural reaction to all the aggro was to throw the coin back. Deserves a ban, yes, but the fan who threw the coin should be given a ban from all English stadia as well.

I don't think we need to 'bounce back' because we're still top of the PL and a defeat in the CC won't be so damaging to the players, on evidence of their performance last night.

Much the same. Been sensational since he has arrived, we certainly missed his runs up the wing.

Obviously my respects go to the family. RIP.

Okay, he shouldn't have done it, but I think the media have surely blown this out of proportion. A one game suspension and a slap on the wrist is all he needs - he has said he is sorry in the media and that should be the end of it.

Welcome to the forum.

Made me sick to see them northern cunts in my beloved Shed

West Bromwich Albion versus Chelsea FC Can Chelsea bounce back after losing to Burnley in the Carling Cup? It was a shock to the system for the Stamford Bridge crowd, who saw their side put in a limp performance as they were second-best to the Championship side. With West Brom on a poor run, can the Blues abolish memories of Wednesday night? Match chat here.

The only thing more constructive than watching Chelsea lose on penalties is self harm. In summary - we were woeful last night. The performance was limp in the final third and we were shocking defensively. Carlo had a nightmare, Ivanovic was bossed by the Burnley forwards, Ferreira was absolute pony, I can't count how many times their midfielders just skipped around him. Malouda and Kalou did fuck all, and Drogba, bar his goal, was a waste of space. I'll be disappointed to hear people blame Scolari's team choice, as the likes of Drogba, Belletti, Deco, etc. should be more than enough to deal with a championship side. We were complacent and we've been punished for it.

I think making the MH End a standing terrace would increase capacity, they never sit down anyway.

£16.2 million is an absolute steal. Has arguably been our best player this season.

I'm in the West Stand tomorrow, which makes me feel sick. I'm a Shed Ender

Sell Bosingwa, he's fucking shite. Lampard too, he's awful. Anelka's useless, can't score to save his life and Cech couldn't catch AIDs if he had sex with a women from Kenya without protection. Sell them all, actually.
