Special Juan

I thought Moses was good here. Anyway, Crouch again, this time at the right end.

Rio fucking Ferdinand

0-1 stoke against QPHA HA

He's proven a lot of people wrong, most are Chelsea fans. Just keep on trucking sir.

What's blinding peoples views is the are looking at goals conceded only and relating that to Tibo. It really isn't the case, he was badly positioned for the Eto'o header at Everton and the rest of the goals he had little chance with. But whatever suits your agenda I suppose, if it makes you happy.

This football club can do little wrong even when they are playing shite.....just look at the headline..... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/index.html

Correct. But phrases such as "he's being found out" are madness.

I think Hazard can be what he wants to be, honestly and truthfully I mean that. Take for example the City game this Sunday, that's the type of game I want to see Hazard take it to City.....He's made a great start this season but for all the qualities he has these are the games against the big guns he has to shine and deliver. The fact we have had players like Zola and have a player like Hazard says everything.

There was a meltdown after the draw against Schalke.

Fucking hell calm down, someone pinched you wallet and wife? You are comparing someone who has done everything, won a hell of a lot and has completed his career to someone who is building to be potentially one of the best in the world.....So, if the question was...."Will he be better than Zola" my answer is yes. The best should always be judged on consistency, where they produce week in and week out and stand out as sheer quality in everything they do. Hazard right now is potentially WC but his tendency to drop in form like last season is what holds him back from that bracket IMO. Now if he is to up his game, which he can and will I have no doubt we will be watching one of the worlds best at Chelsea. As for Zola, at that point in time he was the best foreign import with ease, no arguments, better than Bergkamp and I say that with the utmost confidence. I have friends who are Middlesbrough fans and they argue with me all the time about how Juninho was better than Zola and that I have to laugh about. Juninho was superb at Boro, far and away the best player to ever to play for them, but in that season when Zola won player of the year they said Juninho was cheated out of it and call Zola the 'Half player of the year' because Juninho played for Boro he never got a look in. I think it says more about Zola than anything else, he was better over half season than Juninho was in a full season.

I had to read that twice because first time around I thought you were being positive about something.

Jose has confirmed Costa will start on Sunday. Jose: 'We know what it's like to win there and lose there. I watched last season's games to identify the differences.'

Wait, are some people claiming he's been poor? Not a chance, look closer to the defence if you want to pin blame, certainly not Tibo.

I said from the start of the season if anyone was going to be dislodged from the back line it would be Ivanovic due to Luis coming in and Azpi to RB. I still think that will happen.

I respect your views, lets wait and see on Sunday.

You said to me you had stopped drinking.

1. He is not exactly playing well 2. Willian should start ahead of him due to his better work rate and what he offers 3. I'd even consider Ramires before Oscar

The fully fit issue could be right but if it isn't, like you said, it's bizarre he hasn't started more. We aren't talking a young kid here, we are talking a top quality LB who was sensational for Atletico for a number of seasons and some of their fans actually classed him as their best player.

I haven't watched him much since leaving so last night I was looking forward to watching him. Wasn't good, saying that Wolfsburg weren't.

He was the only shining light for them last night. De Bruyne was shite as well.

Great dilemma to have whether to play him against City. For me he did fantastic on Wednesday but also Azpi is just a defender who gives you literally everything. Good luck Jose on this one.

I don't think Oscar should be anywhere near a starter for this game.

Hopefully he isn't needed for that either.

Unlucky not to score last night and I maintain what I keep saying about him. He will get us goals, bot only that but he should also be getting the nod ahead of Didier.

He just wasn't up to it last night, he looked off the pace and every time he mis controlled the ball you could hear his frustration. I honestly think this was a mistake from Jose starting him.
