Our losses and draws in the PL so far: 1. Stoke 0 - 0 Chelsea 2. Man Utd 3 - 1 Chelsea 3. QPR 1 - 0 Chelsea 4. Chelsea 3 - 5 Arsenal 5. Chelsea 1 - 2 Liverpool 6. Wigan 1 - 1 Chelsea 7. Tottenham 1 -1 Chelsea 1. Any team finds it difficult to play at Brittannia. At home they drew with United and Tottenham, and beat Arsenal. 2. United at OT. Two offside goals and we played well. 3. I don't actually think I need to write about the QPR game. Chris Foy. And the second half was a tactical masterplan. 4. I unfortunately couldn't see the Arsenal game, so I can't really say anything about that one. 5. We should have won that game. 19 shots against 9. I don't fault AVB for poor finishing. 6. Now the Wigan game is the first game I've been utterly dissappointed with, no desire, it's really the only game I think AVB should've done better with. 7. Tottenham have a very, very good team and there's no shame in getting a draw at WHL. We haven't beaten them in the last 6 games at WHL, and they surely have a better team now then last few years. That's that, one game that I think AVB screwed up in the PL, against Wigan (Like I said before, I didn't see the Arsenal game).

How the fuck can you (more than a few members here) ask for a transition, saying you accept the consequences and then act like a spoiled brat when the overdue transition finally begins because we are in 4th place? AVB has changed the team as much as is possible in a few months. He's getting rid of the old spine He's introducing a new philosophy He's brought very good, hungry and fresh players He's dropped the stars thar are underperforming I have to ask, besides dropping the high line (which he has done), what else do you want from him?

Mata? But I'm content and I agree with you. I firmly believe in AVB. I also believe that he will be given time. He will prove the doubters wrong.

JT was outstanding. Bosingwa was great, I had serious doubts but he really pulled through. I thought Meireles was good as well. And Paulo, a truly inspiring performance if you take it into account that this was his first game of the season. Rambo seriously needs to learn how to finish, it's holding him back.

Yes. Romeu.

I don't understand how you can say that. "The media laughs at him for being thin skinned" - he always answers the media perfectly. And the only time I remember AVB "giving shit back" was then Gary Neville unfairly criticized one of his players. When that happens, I expect the boss to defend the player. EDIT - And AVB isn't a nobody, he did amazing things with Porto.

Yeah I got that, what I meant was I know that he isn't a top 3 and it doesn't change my opinion that it's unfair that his club's supporters criticize him for that (the article from dailymail). I have absolutely no idea why I wrote it so badly, sorry.

You obivously didn't read my last sentance. I never said AVB was one of the top 3. I think our main disagreement is how AVB acts in the media, I personally think he's amazing in them, always says the right things. And about this. AVB was defending his player. That comment might be light hearted but it's still a huge insult towards Luiz, and it wasn't even part true. He was okay in that match and DL never deserved all the bashing he got in the media, he wasn't even close to being our worst performer.

Are you kidding? Are you honestly calling AVB a twat because of an article in dailymail? He is a master when it comes to interviews, and he always says that media has it wrong, which it does. Just like the thing about the bench and staff cheering with goals. You have no idea what went on there. And I can't remember how many times Mourinho has actually acted like a ten year old, but he's still one of the top3 gaffers in the world. Why? Because he is the boss. If AVB is anything like that, then that's nothing but good news.

Kalou. Fuck.

Bring McEachran and Torres in. Seriously.

You needn't worry. The football manager gods have smiled upon us and have told me through my game that we will win this one 5-0.

Not really no, my question was about the timing. As you can see if you read the rest of the post.

I don't understand how everyone on this forum are so quick to react. I know Torres hasn't done any wonders here and he has been here for a year. I just don't understand the timing of all this criticism. He's been on the bench for the last, what, 4 games? And he hasn't been bad in those minutes he get's on the field. Set up a goal for Kalou to finish the game against Newcastle. It seems to me like it was only 1 or 2 weeks ago when most (including me) were badmouthing Drogba for bad performances. Suddenly Drogba has one fantastic display and then all of you get the urge to criticize Torres even though he's hardly gotten any minutes last month. Has everyone forgotten those games before Valencia where he didn't look any better than Torres? Why the fuck are you criticizing him at this point?

Is Bosingwa unavailable for the match? If so... fuck.

Indeed, the Icelandic commentator was just going on and on about how David Luiz was terrible in this game. Seems like it's a trend to criticize Luiz even though he was pretty solid in this game. David Luiz played well in my opinion, JT and Sturridge were simply great. I have a wonderful feeling that things are really going to change now. Full faith in AVB!

How dare you call yourself a fan if you leave with ten minutes left of the game against Liverpool. How the fuck can Liverpool fans be louder than Chelsea fans at Stamford bridge. It was an awful performance, but for fucks sakes SHOW YOUR TEAM SOME SUPPORT.

Does anyone have a quality stream? Been searching for 20 minutes and still haven't found one good enough.

I'm hoping Mikel starts this game, mainly because I want Romeu to start vs. Newcastle. Hopefully Josh, Lukaku and Bertrand will be in the starting 11 as well.

Do you guys really think Drogba played well? I find it weird seeing some members on here praising him a lot for that performance. He did okay, nothing more. It was a Torres performance (only pointing this out because of the criticism he is receiving despite having played 20 minutes combined in the last 3 or 4 games). He did seem interested, like you pointed out, which is rare from him nowadays, but it doesn't mean he played well. Personally, I thought he was one of the least effective Chelsea player on the field, jogging around and slowing down tempo.

Torres has been one of my favourite players since playing for Atletico Madrid (football manager might be a small reason). Every once in a while theres a player who is unique and makes you go "wow". Ronaldo, Messi, Xavi, Rooney, Torres. All of these players have that in common that they're unique abilities make them outstanding. Of course, Torres hasn't been showing it lately. But I don't believe that a world class player can just lose they're abilities despite poor form. His talent is still there and all we can do is pray he starts showing it as soon as possible. I am certan that he will, it's just a question if we have enough patience to endure the time until he does. But Torres will be back, hopefully in a blue shirt.

I actually think Sturridge is more suited for the right wing as an inside forward. Think he's been improving there and I think his abilities (pace, power) could make him be world class playing as an inside forward, sort of like AVB's comment about Sturridge resemblance to Hulk. A combo of Hazard - Mata - Sturridge playing behind our striker should be very, very exciting. Of course Sturridge would be playing a little further up the field than the other two.

Agreed, I think Anelka would be much more effective coming off the bench than Malouda. I want Torres for the game against Wolves. He hasn't done much lately, but he's only played 7 minutes in the last two games. Hopefully he will be motivated enough to show us he wants a place in the team.

Please, oh please stop making stupid comments, we are not fucked although it's a bad situation. They were lucky. I suggest you stop being embarrased and start thinking about how much you will cheer for Chelsea on the 6th of December.

Does anyone have a working stream ASAP please?
