Stats

Scored a last minute consilation in a 2-1 loss and tbh was overally poor but the key point is a goalscorer can look totally out of it but he will put the ball in the back of the net. Don't have to play well, but the job is to score and that is what he does.

Too good to be on the bench. The odd games yes but most times should Ramires start? Yes. The amount of times he has popped up like Lampard and done something special. Even against Arsenal this season where he played CM was the MOTM. It is good that we can have a player whose best position is in the CM but can put in brilliant shifts on the wing.

Don't care what the team is. Just want to make sure there are no injuries from this game.

LOL, a game he needs to win and rest Mata? Think he is signing his own resignation card.

What happens next is that Fellaini says he was misunderstood and his comments were taken out of hand.

No one can mention that it is good experience training with their first team squad and experiencing travelling with them. He was doing the exact same thing with us. Really baffling move, especially as he is not ready for that level yet.

The one player I am gutted we never tried to sign is Cazorla. Not to say he would of definitely join us, but he would have easily fit into our system and would flourish in a team with Mata and co. What also bugs me is the price that Arsenal got him for around £12-16m and he has been a joy to watch in the PL and it is not like it was a surprise, everyone knew he was a quality player. Annoying that we pay hefty fees like £50m for Torres who we got for treble what Arsenal got for Cazorla which is crazy and I would have liked to see us make a bid for him especially as we could of offer hima better salary and he is one of them rare players who can use his left equally as good as his right. Just imagine Cazorla, Mata and Hazard in a team. Devastating!

He was impressive second half. He will have his bad games. Remember he is only 20 and is a big reason why Palace are around the play offs. When he moves to United he will be around better players and facilities and will only improve as a player,

I think he deserves a chance to prove himself rather than sending him on loan again first. Look how well he is doing at WBA with a team with inferior creativity compared to us. If he was in a team with Mata, Hazard, Oscar, Moses etc he is bound to score even more goals. He is only going to get better as well and I would like to see him here next season. Getting better every game and he can be a big success story at the Bridge next season.

How about Mikel?

Which out of the two is going to create the fake account to vote themselves?

Brilliant post but looks increasingly likely that they will lose Lewandowski in the summer.

Well no, Nigeria won so we will have to wait for them two. But not a game to turn up and think it is a guaranteed 3 points for sure.

What a goal! What a player! Knew it was something that I would be laughing at when he went Liverpool, what were we thinking. Sturridge or Torres? I know who I would have by miles LOL

I like Bertrand but tell me how does 1 psycho of a manager keep a LB playing on the LW for the full 90 mins, yet we had Marin and Benayoun as subs. Deluded! Feels like Rafa is trying to purposely annoy the Chelsea fans like Merson suggested.

We beat Newcastle 3-0 in this fixture last season. All the goalscorers (Drogba, Kalou and Sturridge) are no longer here. The way football quickly moves on

Same old people who get voted, boring now , even there are others (like me, Kojo, Muffasir etc) who actively contribute to the forums yet there are people who make few comments in a month and are being nominated Anyway I vote for Stingray this month

How this was ever into consideration that he could get an extended ban was ridiculous. He got sent off, that was final. He apologized to the ball boy and they clarified between each other what happened. Final. The FA love to cause a scenery. Would have been a complete farce if he got an extended ban. We have him back for Wigan now anyway: most positive news

And Spurs :getin:

Watching him play against Arsenal. Not scored as of yet but looks so threatening and it disappoints me to know we let a potentially quality striker go. The partnership him and Suarez look to have is lethal. How he did not get chances here I do not know.

Rest my case! Best LB in the Premier League. Brilliant goal! Edit: 2 goals, nearly on double figures for the season. Quality!

If there was ever a time for Torres to stand up and show people he can score with many doubters, this is the game. Please score. Ba got a double against Reading though when he was at Newcastle. Thought he was a certainty to start, maybe that might work in our favour though. Still, let's get behind the lads today. COYB!

Been the best player on the pitch today. Created and scored the first penalty. De-ja-vu a few minutes later, does the same thing, gets the keeper sent off and scores the penalty. Would of liked to see him back here but always good to see a Chelsea player performing well

Even if the offer is accepted does not mean that he will join us. As the article says he will not be no.1 here for a few years if he comes. If he joins Southampton he probably would be their no.1. Possible Liverpool too, if Reina leaves. Doubt he will join here to play back up role.

If this is true our club really baffles me. Blackman is a very talented keeper and then we make an approach for him. Doesnt do any wonders for youngsters confidence.
