I think I went through every emotion possible yesterday, anger, joy, frstration etc..Just wish we hadn't taken so long to equalise. I guess it all comes with the teritory of supporting the Chels. Glad we came away with a win, just hope that we can keep the momentum going. Got back really late as Fulham Broadway tube shut down due to an emergency, hence my late reply.

OK December hasn't been our best month so far, but we are still top of the league, just, obviously we need a win today to maintain that. I think it would be a big mistake to get rid of Carlo after what he's achieved. You would have a very disheartened squad if that were to happen. I tend to agree that you can't blame the manager completely, the players must take some of the blame too after all it is them out on the pitch. I think January will be a testing time with players heading of to play in the ANC and will give a real chance for some of the youngsters to get out there and show what they can do.

Yeah agree we must win on Monday against Fulham and continue straight into the New Year starting with Hull City away , Sunderland at Home, Birmingham at Home, Burnley away. Hardly tough games I would have thought, so no room for any slip ups. Just need to utilise the squad carefully and show that we are worthy of being top of the league.

Good news, and hopefully he will deliver the goods on Monday to widen the gap between us and Manure.

I just hope Ancelotti can come up with something against Fulham who will be in a confident mood after after their win against Manure.

Useless absolutely fucking useless. What happened to us? Sturridge I thought put in a good performance and I thought JT and Cech did a good job too. Not sure what happened with Drogba. Manure are playing Hull tomorrow, they'll surrely win that match.

Malouda red card

yellow card invanovich, lampard off, jo cole on

Sturridge off, Kalou on

Great save Cech.

Cheers mate.

Anyone got a stream that works?

OK, December has been pretty shit for us, so need to find our form for Brimingham and Fulahm. I've seen far too many instances where we could have scored and we didn't. Need to pile on the pressure so that the opposition know we're not a soft target and that we mean business. Stop pussyfooting about and get the job done. C'mon the Chels :blue scalf:

Richly deserved, well done Frank.

He's definitely one to watch

This is Drogba's last match before he flies out for training for the ANC. We're obviously gonna miss him now that Anelka is injured. Hopefully it will now give the likes of Sturridge, Borini and Kakuta a real chance to shine.

Doesn't look good with the way they are playing. Hopefully we will be on form for this match. Keep the Faith :blue scalf:

Welcome :blue scalf:

Thanks mate. You can read me like a book, that's just what I was planning to do, lol. Seriously, I know what you mean and i'm sure it'll all be fine.

Thanks. As you say because i'll be on the official trip, they always drop us of outside the stadium or very near and always insist that we return promptly after the final whistle ( I know you've said in this case that there will be a delay in leaving which I guess Thomas Cook/Chelsea will take into account. I just want to enjoy the whole experience and feel proud to wear my shirt. I am aware that in foreign coountries it can cause problems if you openly wear your shirt. The last thing I would want to do is to cause trouble.

Yeah I know I have a feeling it will be a good one. OK, I will be travelling with the club which will mean that there will be a coach to meet me at Milan and take me to the stadium. Are you saying that there could or will be a problem after the match wearing my colours, even if i'm wearing my shirt and I do my coat up. My plan would be to wear my shrit till I get to the stadium and wear it visible during the game itself, then do my coat up until I get on the coach.

Well I hope so too. Just so looking forward to the whole coming together/United as one of fans and to really get behind the lads so that they know we're there supporting them. I've been to a few away games and all of the home games in the UK this season and I have to say that the support from where I was sitting for some of the games wasn't as good as it could have been. I know it is frustating to watch when when we're losing, but surely that's all the more reason to get behind the team.

Lost the stream, must be FT by now. Final score 1-1?

That was close Yuri.
