Rafa's only made six changes this week.....

I got a free kick

Wins a free header against SWP.

Hyypia comes on in the second half.

OMG a goal kick.

It's the blow up doll with Ronaldo's face painted on that worries me tbh.

Comes to something when a forward scores and you fall about laughing really.

Sounded as if we were more than lucky today, still even better result seeing as it was less than deserved.

I'm not having that. You must've misheard surely? He don't usually say more than "uhhhh"

I don't remember that...............do you know anything about it?

Usually look out for Peterborough's result, watch most of AC Milan's live games as well but don't lose any sleep over either of them.

Bridge is a much better crosser of the ball and better offensively. Totally agree if you're looking at defensive play then Cole's better, he puts players like Ronaldo in his pocket. Not sure I've ever really accepted Cole though so my totally biased choice would be Bridge.

Of course they put their own slant on it and colour it up a bit but he has to have made the odd comment to start with. If he hasnt said a word of what they print, I couldnt see either him or the club letting them continually get away with it.

He's had no luck really has he? Finally starts to get games, looks good and gets bloody injured. As sad as it is, Shevchenko and Chelsea just werent meant to be imo.

We all know what Drogba's done for us but ffs how many more times are we going to hear him talk to the press about his future without Chelsea? He's a Chelsea player atm, its us that pay his wages right now so we're what he should be talking about it anything. Don't think Anelka would have much sway tbh but I think he's spot on. I don't think Drogba will have what he's got now with anyone else. He wasn't confidently banging in the goals when he came to us (although I think his contribution at that time often went unrecognised) and to start with he was whingeing to the papers about wanting to leave because nobody loved him. He was given time and his manager's support and total belief, even to the point where the game was played around him - making him truly believe he is the centre of Chelsea's universe. In short, he was given everything he has now - money, adoring supporters, a much higher profile in football and an ego the size of a house. End result? He feels he's outgrown us.

Is that because the usual suspects havent been playing?

Course I remember it and I remember thinking what an arrogant bunch of tossers they were. I'm not saying no-one else ever does it but its getting a bit too regular with us. Ok, we've had some shocking decisions and its hardly surprising players react but thats no excuse for doing it for every decision. I used to excuse it as player unity, fighting for each other, whatever, but Im not always so sure now. Its getting harder to complain about refs being anti-Chelsea when we keep giving them ammunition tbh. Thats not to say the FA aint arseholes because that goes without saying.

Well that's progress for you. More embarrassingly uncontrolled rants to look forward to - splendid.

Don't anyone actually think we have a bit of a discipline problem then?

Thank god he's injured then.

A Utd supporter was saying on another forum Vidic rates him highly and has been chewing Fergie's ear off to sign him.

sounds like Roman's been playing Football Manager again.

Got as much football know-how as well apparently.

I know stranger things have happened but I really can't see the title going anywhere else but back to Utd. The luck Grants had has been unbelievable at times and just bloody funny at others, but the title's stretching it too far. I've a feeling we'll take second place because I can see the gooners dropping more points than us before the end of the season but thats as high as we'll get. Trophies............said from the start we'd win nothing this season. We are looking a lot better than we were for sure, but Im a stubborn bugger so I'll stick to my prediction and get a large spoon ready for that humble pie.
