  1. It wasn't just Terry who let us down, the whole defence was woeful on Wednesday. They rely so much on Cech during set pieces that they enforce the same responsibilites on another goalkeeper. Cech is a commanding figure, Carlo doesn't have the same authority. If Cech had played, this game would have finished 4-2 at the worst.
  2. I certainly hope so, his contribution has yet again been superb this season. Club top scorer and he's played less than 30 games.
  3. I think having an open topic would have been best, because the poll really limits us. I won't vote until the last day of the season.
  4. Misschief is right, fans have become spoilt with trophies and the realisation we may win nothing this season is scaring them. I might be only 14 but this is my 10th season of being a Chelsea fan, and whilst I have found this campaign to be frustrating one, I have enjoyed it immensely simply because every competition is becoming stronger and teams outside the 'Big Four' as also challenging for honours. And the aforementioned negativities are well-placed in my opinion.
  5. We'd never concede 4 at all under Mourinho. Put it that way. However I've watched the game completely and you have to say it was just one of those games. And we could have lost it 5-4 in the dying seconds - a big shout out goes to Carlo with that save from Berbatov. Absoluely world class.
  6. Team news - Cech is not fit. Goodbye home record.
  7. Beating? No, I don't think we can. But Terry will not let us squander the chance, especially at home. Win, I highly doubt it, but there is no shame in drawing with Arsenal.
  8. I've gone gay for Joe Cole after last night's performance, so Ballack can sod off.
  9. Don't worry, we didn't Just kidding, your username still makes me chuckle. Welcome back.
  10. Doesn't make a difference - players peak at different ages. Look at Drogba - no-one considered him world class till last season when we was 29. Very much the same as Makelele, he peaked at 31.
  11. If it was 3-3, Mourinho would probably have played just Terry, Alex and Ricardo at the back, pushed the full-backs up the pitch to act as wing-backs and bring on Shevchenko. What does Grant do? Employ the magic 5-4-1. Great tactics.
  12. As mentioned about six times earlier, Mancini will still be an Internazionale, he took back what he said and declared he would stay if they claimed the Scudetto for the third time running. Rijkaard is an iffy one, ever since HtC left Barca, they haven't been as good.
  13. The only managers who compare with Mourinho are Lippi, Ferguson, Capello and Wenger, and the latter three are in jobs.
  14. To early to vote, but you have missed off three huge contributers this season - Cech, Carvalho and Alex. They are have a shout.
  15. Spot on, attacking football gets you nowhere. I'd prefer 0-0 to 4-4. What the fuck happened to the Chelsea defence that had the best defensive record in any European league over the past four years?
  16. Chelsea FC vs Arsenal Following a disappointing result against North London opposition on Wednesday, Chelsea will be looking for a victory over Arsenal in Grand Slam Sunday. Chelsea have failed to defeat Arsenal in the league in their last four attempts, drawing twice and losing away at the Emirates earlier this campaign. Knowing a win would take them above Arsenal in the league table, the Blues must improve upon their defensive disaster at White Hart Lane in midweek. Chelsea will be hoping Petr Cech will return from injury as the Czech looks to make amends for his error that lead to William Gallas netting the vital goal in December. Match chat here!

  19. Too late to make managerial changes now, Dracula has done enough to fuck the season up. We started this season in five competitions including the Chairty Shield and had realistic chances of doing all five. Yet in the space of a month we've been effectively knocked out of three and we were out of another before the season began. Champions League? No chance.
  20. Full-time. Don't get me started on Grant.
  21. CUDICINI YOU FUCKING HERO! SAVED US THEN
  22. I don't believe it. I honestly don't believe it.
