So I don't understand why it's annoying then and your complaining? We agreed that it's better to save the tougher fixtures for March then now for City.....

You sure about West Ham? They are on a roll and momentum is on their side. Giving that the fixture is the 26th after Christmas it makes it a very dangerous game. As we don't know if some players might have party too much or what not. Concentration might not be to the fullest in games right after holidays.

You think they will sell him in the January transfer window or wait till the summer? If they selling at a bargain, Chelsea would be stupid not to go for it this January.

What's so annoying as hell about some fixtures that are easy for both teams? I rather they have tougher fixtures around March then now. Because look how we was ahead and they catch up? If they have tough fixtures in March, and slip up there can be very fatal. So save them tougher fixtures for later.

I think that Monday fixture should be easier then the fixture we have against West ham. They are doing good and the timing is not the greatest. Then after that going to the lane might be tough. Even though we beat them already but from past few years, white Hart lane can be hard and as well the date makes it tricky. Anytime you have a game after a holiday I find it tricky especially against such opponents.

Bah, this title race was getting boring with no competition. But still is just false hope since we're going to beat city. ?

I agree that away shirt is boss. Will be buying my first away shirt ever with this one.

I have two questions and want to see people's thought. Would he had flourished had he stayed with us back when we exchange him for David Luiz? And giving that we are doing good with Matic and Fabregas in the pivot, do you think this will continue to be the lineup when we face say PSG? Bayern or Real Madrid? Or we will see Ramires in the mid and move Fabregas up to the number 10 role?

Only if we have a great player coming up after him. Just like we did with Mata and David Luiz. We thought they was going to stay here forever, but we found better players. If Hazard does good for the next 3 years and by then we have somebody that can challenge then yes we would sell him. But if he's our best player in the team, then there's no way we will sell him.

Yay I was getting worried that there was no news on this front.

You know Liverpool has really screwed up big time in their buys, but if I was them I would buy de bryune. Might be a good buy for them.

That should change a bit next season with the way the top seed is determined. But also I think the fact that we get to avoid the teams from the same league in the next round reduces the odds of getting a new opponent. Should just make it free for all after the group stage.

I think it was different a decade ago and it was demanded that we win, win and win. The standards has been reduced a tad bit.... Just a tad. And because of FFP we can't no longer splash like crazy. We did good this season with transfer, but how many years you expect the same results? Every year we sell a youth for over 20 millions? It's gonna come a time that what we have to spend and what's available ain't as good as what we have. Biggest example is Salah. What was the purpose of spending 10 millions to get him when his slot can go to a guy from the Academy? If mourinho is really staying here for a decade then by next season we should see something moving in this direction. *noticed that I'm a pessimists when it comes to youth but at least I can acknowledge that thanks to FFP we might just have to use the kids in the coming seasons.

Hmmm an away shirt? That's interesting. I will say some away shirts do look awesome but I can't never hold them in weight to home shirts because of the colors and away status.

I kinda agree with lionsden on this one. Too early for this. I did liked the Everton game and schurrle goal against Burnley but they are not decisive games that brings the excitement and joy up a notch. Like Ba late equalizer against psg last season and mourinho running to the by line...Funny that I did the same running all around my house. ?

Well since the Samsung logo is about done and dusted with Chelsea I was wondering which kit the fans thought was the best? My favorite is the kit we used after the CL victory season. I liked it because of the gold glittering look it had. http://www.offthepost.info/wp-content/uploads/Chelsea-FC-Home-Kit-2012-13.jpg

Last time David Luiz had an amazing game and PSG bought him. Will they want one of our players again after this match? Of course we won't sell Hazard, Costa, Fabregas, Matic and Courtois. I think anyone else could be sold.

And let's not forget this face as well:

Well I really think next season is when mourinho should play one or two younger players. As most people alluded to, this season is a bit tough and it's all about winning the league. After we win that and have the champions mentality then mourinho might try more with younger players. So we shall see.

Well a good read about Chelsea and City academy from G. Neville http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/manchester-united/11289726/Premier-League-academies-must-be-more-than-just-obscene-cosmetic-surgery.html

What? I don't see what you guys talking about.

I think enough is enough. Mourinho needs to have a word with the squad and tell them to stop diving. Is blatantly cheating and we don't want no one to do it to us. So we need to start first by putting our house in order.

That's good because I get bored when team roll over for us...

It's called sheepo. They just read the twisted headlines and don't read the actual quotes that a person spoked.
