Dangerous to think about who can or can't stop us IMO. We're bordering on over confidence there. My pessimistic mind always tells me on runs like this - we must be due a loss soon. We will lose soon, it is how we react to that, that will determine how well we do. Another 15-20 game unbeaten run and we should be laughing.

Why does Schurrle insist on shooting from every fucking position on the pitch? CUT IT OUT!!!!

Sturridge

That is poor, mate. This is a fantastic competition, a fantastic trophy to win especially mid season and we have history in it, especially in recent years. One thing that sets this great club apart from other 'big' clubs IMO, is we give every competition the respect it deserves. We don't dismiss any trophy and I don't see why we should now. Silverware is silverware. As a great club, we will do all we can to win another major trophy like we do every year! Choosing to reject an opportunity at one competition as a 'waste of time' is quite frankly arrogant and something i would expect from a glory hunting Manc. Remember our older generation of fans didn't have the luxury to pick and choose which competition we could or couldn't go for back in the late 70's and 80's. They couldn't have ever dreamed about winning The League Cup while we were floating around in Division 2. Remember where we came from!

Annoying result given we were 1 up with 30 seconds left but we invited the pressure. We brought Mikel on with 20 mins to go and while we were turning the screw a little looking for the 2nd. Why?? Don't have anyone to blame but ourselves imo. Anyone who blames the ref needs to open their eyes a little. We should have gone for the throat when we scored the first. We didn't, we sat back and was punished. Still, a point gained on City. Still unbeaten. Its not all doom and gloom.

I'm nervous ahead of this game. We are flying at the moment, but too many times I have seen teams flying, go to Old Trafford and lose. It always happens! I know this isn't the same United as it used to be but it still makes me nervous. We have such an opportunity to create a big gap at the top with the City result. I SO SO SO don't want to let it slip. Please boys!! Don't fuck it up today! Let's be ruthless! Come on the Chels!! :blue scalf:

So Jose says Remy is out, Costa is a major doubt but he doesn't know if Didier will start even though he said he has trained well this week.... what?? So no strikes on sunday then?

Agree with Amels.... very strange to do this now. Unsure on what to make of this really. We seemed rather settled at bored level and now we need to find a new CEO. Hopefully someone inside the club will take up the role.

If Eden was more ruthless in front of goal he would no question be up there with Messi and Ronaldo as the best players in the world. Immense tonight! Such a talent and the scary thing for everyone else is he is only going to get better!!

Emphatic!! Hazard - unplayable. The two full backs were fantastic. Dider scores in Chelsea blue again. Great night, great win. Come on the Chels!! :blue scalf:

Tibo Azpi Zouma JT Luis Mikel Matic Salah Willian Hazard Remy Azpi to cover Iva as he is suspended for United. Cahill has played a lot of football, won't hurt to give him a day off. Cesc is vital against United so against a 'lesser' opposition it would make sense to rest him. Oscar looks like he is beginning to recapture a bit of form. We don't want the burn out that so badly affected him last season. Like Cesc, we're playing a weaker team so Salah can cover for one game.

Fantastic result! Against a difficult team to play as well. Especially away from home. The steamtrain rolls on! Onto Old Trafford :blue scalf:

I know Nico only did it once, 08-09. Didier twice I think. 09-10 and I think 06-07 as well? Although that may well have been Ronaldo. I'm going to stick with two though. Jimbo did it in his 1st year, 00-01 and I know he got 29 goals in all comps the next season but I don't think he managed prem top scorer.

I would say 3. JFH Didier Anelka

There is a Wikipedia page of Chelsea records. Can't imagine it is anyone 'official' who has put it up but it can't be far off the truth Or you could always email the club or club historian. Rick Glanvill i think the guys name is. I think he has a Facebook and Twitter account.

I love his comment when asked about what Lambert and Keane said 'I think they are two great examples of polite, well educated people' hahaha!! Lambert & Keane are both miserable bastards as it is. Fucking idiots. Especially Keane. Talks about respect after what he did to Haaland. Stupid Cunt!

Finally, the long wait is over and we are back! Let us continue on our merry way of steamrolling everybody who comes up against us. Another 3 points, another Costa hatrick as he is injured again.... happy days!!

Don't think we need to go looking for a replacement. Kalas and Zouma are perfectly capable to cover JT when the time comes. Although as somebody else said. JT will never be replaced, we will just have to fill the hole left as best we can.

He came out of it injury free that's all I care about!! Now full steam ahead and unleash him on Palace this Saturday!!

Steve Gerrard, Gerrard! He slipped on his fuckin arse! He gave it to Demba Ba! Steve Gerrard, Gerrard!

Nobody would ever call it the Turkish Airlines Stadium or anything like that. Who ever called St James Park - Sports Direct Stadium or whatever their owner changed it too a few years ago? Everybody still called it St James Park. The same with The Bridge. Fans up and down the country and all over the world will call it Stamford Bridge. Like the article said, it would only work if moving stadiums like Arsenal to The Emirates. Renaming Stamford Bridge after 150 years of its existence will not work.

EDIT - sorry, i missed a whole page of this thread somehow. Didn't realise this had already been answered

I'm going to say 8 and a half. I didn't know the Alex one and for some reason my brain told me Malouda was Marseille even though i knew it was Lyon. Ahhhh. That's got to be a top flight record never mind Prem record. :blue scalf:

I don't think anyone is going to get these, mate. Apart from the ones Alex mentioned, I'm all out. What are they??

With him being the guy making the mistake. Usually giving the ball away. He was complete horse shit, he really was! Still, Ex Blue so I hope he does well there.
