I'm sure he would opt for 22 to prove he is twice as good as Drogba.

Remember the Joe Cole line from the Blue Revolution documentary? He said that Mourinho's first statement in the dressing room was "You,you,you have won nothing..!" That's how he starts at all his clubs, he likes to put the players in their proper places..let them know who's boss.. And let's be honest,we were on the verge of becoming like LIverpool fans with our 'transition year' excuses and our expectations from the club had been on a downward spiral over the last few years... The point of this interview was to instill the belief in players and fans alike that great things should be expected of a club of the stature of CFC...belittling Benitez may not have been his sole intention... KTBFFH... :blue scalf:

I thought DDR was an acronym for The Drog...I clearly haven't been to this thread much... I'm not too concerned about de Rossi's age to be honest,we bought the Mak at about the same stage in his career and he didn't do to badly for us did he?

The confidence I have gained in our board for the restraint they have displayed in not bowing to ADL's insane demands may be shattered when we buy John Ruddy for 10m pounds.

Been looking for something like this for soo long...thanx a lot Strike..

Not a single substitution...11 players playing 90 minutes of football in the 69th game of the season...!!! Proud of you guys...

To think WE have nothing on the bench to resort to...

And I thought the face mask would make the difference...

We had the Saville brothers too didn't we?

Frank Lampard is the only player apart from Thierry Henry to have scored 100 premier league goals in London.... #FACT #LEGEND

Butch says we are out of the title race.... http://youtu.be/1bjxzB3EUoU

Norwich will be looking to bounce back after their loss to the baggies....

I remember the good old days under Ancelotti when teams below the top 6 were happy with a 2-0 loss at SB,and quite content to escape the fate of Stoke,Sunderland,Villa,Wigan etc...we need to get that fear factor back.... I have to say,during the last few weeks of RDM's reign I used to wonder before matches where the goals were going to come from...today we scored 8 goals with seven different scorers,first time such a thing has happened in the premier league...credit where it's due, FSW for the win...

Puhleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzz Bruce Buck you cunt, give Lamps a new deal.... I want to see at least 1 one of these heroes of our generation retire in a Chelsea shirt....

Each one of our players looked to be on the top their games today...that was a remarkable performance.. But I would like my fellow Chelsea fans to show a bit of class and spare a thought for the poor Villa team and supporters tonight...their traveling fans payed 52 quid for a ticket and had to sit through the misery for an entire 90 minutes...great club,great fans,deserve better...

Wow Luiz,but it's still a flash in the pan....

Isn't Cole playing far too inside?We hardly have any width down the left....

Wow exactly what I had type out ready to post...

Lampard is trying way too many overhead balls...there's something wrong with the weight of the ball,because all of his chips are ballooning and hanging in the air for eternity...

Or this one... http://tu.tv/videos/valencia-vs-chelsea-1-2 Joe Cole's awesome outside of the foot pass to Drogba at the Mestalla...go to 4:32...

It feels awesome when we bicker over personal choices for MOTM and vehemently proffer justifications in favour of our own candidates in the post match thread...goes to show everyone had a great game and we did well as a team...who cares who was motm.. I voted for Dave btw...poor guy never gets a vote...

Are you sure?I thought the game against Wolves in the COC wasn't televised at all...

Dunno if this has been posted here,this is from last week...great story,loved it... One solitary Udinese fan showed up in Genoa for his team’s match against Sampdoria http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/soccer-dirty-tackle/one-solitary-udinese-fan-showed-genoa-team-match-230323815--sow.html;_ylt=AneW983Mb9Zv7u0UJppwDD.pb8p_;_ylu=X3oDMTE5azBvc2k2BG1pdANCbG9ncyBJbmRleARwb3MDMzQEc2VjA01lZGlhQmxvZ0luZGV4;_ylg=X3oDMTFpMm9iMzh1BGludGwDdXMEbGFuZwNlbi11cwRwc3RhaWQDBHBzdGNhdANibG9nBHB0A3NlY3Rpb25z;_ylv=3#more-17127'>Read more...
