I don't mean in a poor guy as in not being rich, I mean the fact that people keep on at him just because they don't like him as a player and continually saying negative things about him.

Yeah I know, It just gets me how some people overeact and continue to keep bashing the poor guy.

My initial reaction after the handball incident was fuck off Kalou, which I think is only natural being 3 minutes away from the end of the match and bearing in mind we were 1-0 up at that point. It doesn't mean that I hate Kalou, and that I don't want him to play in a Chelsea shirt ever again, it's just an instant reaction, which I suspect a lot of people would have had at that precise time.

Would have liked Aldershot wouldn't have been too far to go. Not going to be easy, never seem to do well at Goodsion, hoping for a win within 90 minutes, so no extra time and no penalties!!, remember us against them in the FA Cup last season.....A 1-0 will do for me.

OK thanks, that's a good point.

Well another highly entertaining match, good to see Torres score again proving all the doubters wrong, although marred of course by his sending off. Superb goals from Ramires and Drogba, although regarding Drogba's there were people that had left before that so would have missed it. , why do people do that, it ain't over till the final whistle! Why was Mata taken off he was doing great? Top day out, pre-match drinks :beer:in the Imperial (highly recommended) and whoever says that the atmosphere is dead at the Bridge should have been there yesterday and would have been proved wrong.

I hope Alex you've identified those that have cheated and reprimanded them shame on them.

I thought another entertaining match. I think what impressed me most was a couple of things the fact that we were able to play for 73 minutes with a man down, that surely has to be applauded and the fact that we weren't playing a regular starting XI. Secondly Ross Turnbull, I admit I've not been a fan, but I thought he coped very well and hopefully it will have given him a massive confidence boost.

Looks hideous tbh

Still shold be on our guard, doesn't matter who the opposition is, any team can cause us problems.

I am a mere spectator nowdays. Do remember playing when at school and always getting picked last for the team lol, did score a goal once and everyone erupted as I think our team won the match. Not sure what position I was playing at the time (it was a good 20 years ago) , might have been a striker.. but I doubt it.

We shouldn't underestimate Fulham, they can be awkward opponents as we know when we played them at Craven Cottage last season. Will be good to see the likes of Super Josh, Lukaku, Bertrand etc.. play to show us what they can do. Should be to our advantage being at Stamford Bridge.

A tough match, entertaining from start to finish. Forget Torres's missed sitter, i'm sure many a true legend has been in that position before, move on, I have. Had to laugh at Shrek and missing that penalty, a comic performance from him, i'm sure my granny could have done a better job! Chant of the match has to be We're Gonna Win the League towards the end of the match, one of the reasons why I became a Chelsea Fan, the sheer support for the team whatever the final result! It's a shame we don't see that level of support more often at other games.

Will take a draw. Be very interesting to see what team AVB puts out, I think something similar to yesterdays starting XI would be good So gald that Petr is back.

Tired (nothing new there), need some good nights sleep over the next few days in readiness for the game on Sunday.

I just read this on someones Facebook Profile, says really what being a Chelsea Supporter is all about "The colour I wear is royal blue. Forever I shall remain loyal and true. Win lose or draw I'm Chelsea to the core from the begining to the end my Chelsea faith I shall defend I stand with pride I shall never run and hide Chelsea till I die !!"

Show some fucking determination and passion! and we will get through Sunday.

Would recommend you take some form of ID along with you. The box office I believe opens till half time, so you shouldn't have a problem collecting your tickets before kick off.

Such a frustrating player to watch. It's all about confdence, but i'm sad to say that I think that that AVB is going to choose other players at his disposal over him to start.

Truly horrifying to watch. Would never want anyone to go through such an ordeal, RIP to him and all those who died.

Why? Everyone in the Chelsea end where singing his name.

Good to see Danny score, superb, Danny Sturridge, Danny Sturridge, Danny Sturridge, Oh oh oh oh, Danny Sturridge etc.. Our pace seemed to be better yesterday and I thought we put pressure on Sunderland, except for towards the end where we seemed to give up, hence us conceding. Very long day travelling up and back on the train, but worthwhile as always :blue scalf:

Congratulations on reaching 4000, long may you continue

As long as we put in 100 % all the time, that's what's important. Age shouldn't be an issue. Look at us 2 years ago and we didn't exactly have a young squad then I don't think and we still were able to win the double. I don't think they can (manure and citeh) keep their tempo up all the time, bloody hard playing consistenly well every week.
