That is very true, but he also had excellent performances against big teams like France, England, Argentina, Spain, Italy, etc. It is not his fault Brazil is hosting the World Cup and has to play against smaller sides in meaningless friendlies!

Zamires?

Score his 10th goal in the 10th minute in his 30th cap!

GOOOAAAAAL! NEYMAAAAAARRRRR!

Vuvuzela + Galvao Bueno = Mute!

There was a period last year that I honestly thought David Luiz would grow to become one of the best defenders on Earth. However, as the time went by he not only didnt progress, but he actually regressed A LOT. Today, Luiz is more of a liability than anything else! He doesnt seem focused, it is very weird. He walks on the pitch like his actions have no consequence. He is not even half the player he was under Benitez (not that its Jose's fault). I doubt he will ever become a starter again! We still have Zouma, Kalas, Ake, etc., so I would sell him to Barcelona for 25mi without even thinking twice. We would be getting our money back and Spanish football fits him perfectly, a great deal for both parts. I still believe he can become the player we all want him to be; the problem is that I dont believe he will do it here at Chelsea...

Why is the stadium so empty mate?

In your face! OOOOSSSCAAAAARRRR!!!

Julio Cesar Rafinha - Thiago Silva - David Luiz - Marcelo Paulinho - Fernandinho Hulk - Oscar - Neymar Fred

Spain really didnt fight for Costa, they only did it so Brazil couldnt have him! And Brazil only wanted Costa because our striker options are absolutely horrible. Even mighty England has better strikers than us, it's pathetic!

If this was any other year, I would 100% agree with you. However, this season has been different. There is no clear dominant team and everybody is dropping silly points. City has the potential to win 10 matches in 12, but I trully dont believe they will. If they were so incredible like most people say, they wouldnt have 57 points after 26 games. They are amazing on paper, but they still havent fully figured out how to produce week-in, week-out (especially away from the Etihad)! This year's Premier League is somewhat like the Brazilian League, lol. The top 5-6 teams are so leveled that the winner could have easily ended up outside the top four or whatever. So you have an idea, the champion of Brazil usually finishes with 75-78 points and the fourth finishes with 70 or so. It is less than 3 games separating the first to the fourth. The difference is Brazilian teams are so close to one another because they are all shit, while in the EPL it is close because the top teams are really good, hehehehe. So, unlike previous seasons, there is genuine competiton for the clubs this year. There is no one running away with the league and every single game can be considered quite difficult. It wouldnt surprise anyone if one of the top four lose to the bottom 3. Things are extremely packed now and that makes everything a little bit different.

How much you want to bet that 85 points will be enough to win the title? Of course 87 will guarantee it, but ultimately it wont be needed, imo.

I find it hilarious, it is on the "video game" threads...

I believe 22 points is enough (W7 D1 L2). I dont think we need to go as high as 89 points in order to win the league. All teams are dropping points, 84-85 will definitely do!

No, because, like I said previously, having 63 points doesnt mean anything in the end if your opponents are closer to you than when you had 59-60-61 points. It only counts if you compare the amount of points our rivals also had. Then we will be able to analyse it and trully compare how well we are doing... But whatever, it is nice to see we are doing much better than in the past 3 seasons or so!

Anything is funnier than the Kevin Arsebunner Thred because his thread isnt even funny to begin with...

The conclusion is that nothing of what you posted really matters. The important thing is to know how far behind or ahead Chelsea were in comparisson to our opponents. It doesnt matter that we have 63 if City and Liverpool are less than a game behind! 63 points tied with City (assuming they win both their games) is worse than 60 points where the second has 55, for instance...

This is worse than the Tommy thread...

Not really, I prefer to see Matic's face in an ungly body than to see Miley Cirus in any shape or form!

Awesome derby! A fair 2-2, imo.

Needs to set up and perform. Our next games are extremely important and we will need him to be at his best...

At least put that thing on a spoiler tag FFS!

At this stage, I dont even care who plays or not. Just get the 3 points and move on to the next match! It is make it or break...

Well, it seems like I am not the only optimistic about our titles chances anymore!

COYB!
