What's next, Kalou starting over Drogba?

If anything Chelsea made him better.

Exactly. Would be surprised if Chelsea doesn't appeal.

Yea Kalou missed a lot of chances but he was very active up front. No one in particular was impressive today, so hats off to Salomon for giving the assist.

MOTM: Kalou or Malouda

Well said Steve, we're lucky Drogba was treated in time.

If we had either Lamps or Essien we would've won 2-0. The midfield was overpowered with only Yuri/Ramires anchoring it, Mikel played all the way back and his long passes couldnt connect up front. Malouda/JT/Cech were the only players that showed up today. IMO, Florent should've played mid while Zhirkov operates the left wing position. Having said that, i'm sure we'll get them back at the bridge. We didn't go through last season undefeated to win the double, you can't win them all and I much rather learn from this now and move on while the season is still early.

Who else thinks Sturridge should start over Kalou from now on?

Still proud of our efforts in the second half, could've been level if Malouda/Anelka scored. KTBFF!

Yup. Didin't really mind losing the game until I saw that twat clapping at the end of the match.

yup, hes the only one that gives a shit tbh. Get Kalou off now please Carlo.

midfield is non existent

replace Mikel with Essien and we'll be running circles around them all day

way too overpriced for a midfielder we don't really need.

will stevie be sending us early christmas presents today via Drogba/nico?

Cech Iva Alex Terry Ash Essien Mikel Yuri Anelka Drogba Malouda

its all good, not a big deal at all. Point is, Malouda's fit

^refer to this post

me too, I can see him having a field day vs. the scum

Carlo is probably dead tired from praising Ashley every day, absolute joke how people come up with this stuff.

Kalou could've easily scored at least 2 goals today, the challenges were tight but he was in the position to score.

I wouldn't rush Lamps if he's not fully fit, don't want to risk him being out long-term going in november/dec. Ramires will do a fine job.

Cech Iva Alex Terry Ash Essien Mikel Lampard Anelka Drogba Zhirkov Shame Malouda wont be avaialble though.

What a tight finish from Anelka, great win. Buzz kill with the conceded goal though, we had a pretty strong run going from Cech.

Yuri's cross was class indeed
