Bosingwa on? WTF!!!

stream being worse then a wolves defender. Anyone got a decent link? Love that the crowd want of Torres

Drogba is somewhat anti-climatic today. Great teamwork, but the finish isn't there!

Better yet, why not Kalou!

Elokobi s fucking massive! Expect him to go green and destroy the stadium at the end of the game!!

Man Ure one up.

I would have put Lukaku on now if he was on the bench

Gotta love Americans trying to explain 'soccer'.

DD needs to come off. Nando to come on, or push Danny into the middle. Mata, Ramires, Danny, Cole, Raul, etc. have been brilliant! Only DD been wrong tho

Definitely not DD's day. Poor pass. MATA!!

Not Didi's day, me thinks.

7th goal for Danny

Drogba hasn't been alert enough for me so far.

JT! Scoring when people doubt him Typical of the legened!

Line up? Any Veetle links possible

Heard Roberto is gonna come out of retirement with Gainfranco to show how the job is done!!

Would love more English blood in our line-ups

They can play a part, but should we rely upon them all the time? Cole has played way too much! Bertrand is experienced and talented enough to play against teams like Wigan! Should we knacker our elder backbone in order to find points when we have these supposedly potential 'world-class' youth rotting on the bench, or reserves?

With the early reports of him running a strict regime, it seemed like he was set to be the kind of person who could break the firm-hold of ego within our squad - plus with his own vision for the way he wanted him to be managing the team with the style he likes to play. But there is a problem with the way it is implemented. It is safe to assume the high line offers nothing more then more problems then solutions - it makes our once perfected defence look like shambles, and a clean sheet a non-exist word which we seemed to defy. Yes, we are going into a transition peroid, but we are still a team that wants to fight for competitions and NEEDS to be certain to be in the Champions League. I am 100% behind AVB, and the idea he has for our team, but that shouldn't be played ahead if it means risking the oppertunity to attain the goal of CL football the following season. If the high-line doesn't suit our current crop of players, and the fast tempo doesn't seem to be able to be implemented because some players like to hold the ball, and what-not - then some decisions mean that he needs to have a second plan, and slowly implement the changes in style over time. This isn't a transition with just the squad, i hope, but with the style we have come to know at Stamford Bridge and a different atmosphere of authority - but the expectation still remains, even though, maybe a little shorter then the following season. The likes of Drogba, Anelka, Malouda, etc. should be players that are grasping for straws, not 100% first team starters whereas players like Sturridge, Oriol, McEarhan, and Bertrand should be given oppertunites to shine through this peroid as we are builiding a brand new side, We bring in players WITH the young players we have, and build a much larger prospect - with someone who is able to fix them into something, rather then a facelesss image that is one in a while having another face plastered in it to help gain short-term success. Would rather have a chicken with the eggs and the head, then one without.

I would rather have Hazard over Higuian - ideally would have both - but we should be after Cavani if such a deal came around (Hazard to Real, Higuain to SB)

Yes, but he was moulded by Jose to replace Maka - so we are know wanting him to be who he once was

Wouldn't mind having him here, with Didi leaving and i don't consider Nico a striker no more. There is no words for what position he plays now

Mikel has been a good servant, but his style doesn't really help with the tempo of the game. Either he needs to be molded into the style of play, into a more attacking minded player or sold and replaced - or even giving Oriol a chance.

Seems like we have this discussion every week, with the same ol' words being said for and against. But the only thing i want to add is, the way before Christmas is as vital as the journey left behind. Look at last season, and you'll season. If AVB gets some sort of system in December, and then adds more players to the cards - we could be having that CL spot.

Knowing Terry, he's gonna score in the next game !
