Rubber bullets

Means he misses the FA CUP semi-final, interesting.

For those two importang goals, Luiz.

Jonjo Shelvey use to go to my school. I remember spitting on him in a football match

If he can break the net I'm suprised Alex has not sent the goal rocketing into outer space.

Cech

Manchester City's Carlos Tevez has failed a fitness test, so Edin Dzeko is the lone striker. From BBC http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/9430567.stm

It took 7 games for Dennis Bergkamp to get his first goal for Arsenal and 9 games for Thierry Henry to score his first goal. Now they are both considered Arsenal legends, so don't brush of Torres just yet.

Meh... A professional CL performances, are some people never happy?

I wonder how many people would have put in Torres a few months before

I can't see it.

This guy seriously needs to go to a mental hospital before he kills himself. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/3449855/Hollywood-wildman-Charlie-Sheen-says-he-wants-to-hang-out-with-London-mayor-Boris-Johnson.html

Didn't you start moaning and complaining when the mods kept putting the numerous Kakuta threads into one thread.

We need to put pressure on them, they keep pressing us Barca style.

Could he be charged by police?

Once a gunner, always a gunner!

He wasn't also drink driving whle he was at it?

To be honest I will be happy with a draw. I fear that if we lose this game then the whole atmosphere will turn into "CHELSEA IN DEEP, DEEP CRISIS" all over again. Exactly what happened when we were beaten by Liverpool.

So are Tottenham and Man City, infact most bloody teams this season are too inconsistent. So anything could happen.

The only concern I have with 4-4-2 is that at times we do get caught out sometimes inbetween the lines. We need to be more disciplined becuase a very speedy team that are great on counter attacks will cause us massive trouble.

Mind games

With the upcoming CL match I was going through a nostalgia moment by reading these articles about one of the most important goals in our history and the start of the Roman era. Its funny that we criticise Carlo for being tacticly stubborn and not have a flexible outlook on the pitch when we use to have manager (Ranieri) that would make changes that could defy belief and logic. But he can be given credit for playing a big role in the Chelsea revolution. Here are Jesper's memories on those two dramatic seasons: http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/news-and-comment/jesper-gronkjaer-the-winger-who-scored-chelseas-1bn-goal-2220694.html http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2011/feb/20/roman-abramovich-chelsea http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/chelsea/8336684/FC-Copenhagen-v-Chelsea-Jesper-Gronkjaer-and-the-1-billion-goal-that-changed-Chelseas-history.html

They will do exactly what Liverpool, Fulham and to an extent what Everton did, put most men behind the ball and try and suffocate the attack and midfield. So it will a be a tough game if we find it difficult breaking down their defence.

I've got a knife with me, anybody want to join me and cut off all of the away supporters tongues and watch them bleed in agony?

Why isn't anybody organising a facebook group that sets us dates on when to go on murder sprees on Everton fans.
