Jesus fucking christ. This is really beginning to piss me off. Do we not want to win the league this year? Scolari....Wind yer neck in son and drop Deco ffs. Yet again he was ineffective. In fact I'd drop the whole fucking lot of them bar Cech. Phil fucking Dowd-syndrome will be getting a swift boot in the bollocks if we ever cross paths. I thought Graham Poll and Mavis were bad refs. This guy is bloody clown. We dont deserve the right to win every game, but for fuck sake show a bit of metal.

I dont think he gave a foul, I think it was offside.

Hahahahaha goal disallowed.....Cech's injured though

Pfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff We're hanging on here ffs.

Cech's keeping us in this game.

rofl @ Fellaini (sp?) Look at the size of his afro, Its got its own solar system ffs

Talk about a ref on a power trip. Chelsea wanted the wall put back the full 10 yards, and he books Ballack ? Fuck off Phil Dowdsyndrome.

FFS Scolari....grow a set and haul Deco off :thumbsdown:

A straight red is an automatic 3 game ban :thumbsup: Even if we get a draw out of this I'll not be happy. The red is having a shocker. He must have his family in the stand watching ffs. Over the past 4 weeks we've had numerous chances to go top of the table after Liverpool dropped points. Each time we failed to take advantage. Thats not the form of Champions I'm afraid.

FFS...Ash and Lamps now booked. Lamps for being mouthy with the ref and Ash I think for coming out of the wall. Keeps the heads up ffs and dont start fucking about....FOCUS

Keep up

It was a bad tackle, but a straight red is a tad harsh. He'll miss West Brom, Fulham and Southend.....at least he wont miss the Manure game.

JT sent off........ Not good.

Anyone got an ENGLISH SPEAKING Sopcast link. I've got a Chinese one atm.....Not quite as fun

He fully deserves some sort of recognition for his performances this season. He's made the loss of Essien for much of the season a softer blow to take. He has taken on the role with both hands and is rapidly improving. Dont get me wrong, I'd have Essien back in a heartbeat, and when he does come back I'd drop Deco/Ballack on current form tbh.

We're a fecking "big team"

I have to say, I'm quite pleased with getting Juve. They're not the force they once were, but then again, we're far from firing on all cylinders ourselves. It could have been alot worse. Big Big ties for Manure and Liverpool. Its funny that we got the easier draw considering we didnt top the group.

Chelsea v Juventus Villareal v P'aikos Sporting Lisbon v B.Munich Ath Madrid v Porto Lyon v Barcelona Real Madrid v Liverpool Arsenal v Roma Inter v Manure

Juve's not a bad draw. The Tinkerman returns Villareal v P'aikos

Essien's also been reported to be doing light training and a January return is likely.

Fans.fc I wouldnt play him against West Brom either tbh. The games after that are against Fulham and Southend, games we should have no worries in. I'd keep him for the Manure game in the new year to make sure he's 100% fit. We dont need to risk him.

Anelka looks to have settled well into the Chelsea family and his "Le Sulk" tag seems to be fading. His attitude over the last lot of weeks has impressed me alot. Its nice to see him with a smile on his face. As for Grant.......

They ran a mock draw earlier and we got Porto. I'd be pretty happy with that.
