I would take a draw here. To keep them 5 points behind would be fantastic imo. Defensivley we have to wake up though. If we defend like we have been doing we will get ripped apart.

Why is Drogba one of the greatest Chelsea players ever? Is that a serious question? Maybe his 157 goals for the club (the 4th highest in our history) maybe the 100 premier league goals (only African to achieve that) maybe the 4 Fa Cup final goals in 4 Fa Cup finals. Maybe the 8 cup final goals in 8 cup finals. Maybe the countless times he has scored massive goals on massive occasions. Maybe the fact it was he who produced THE greatest moment this club has ever witnessed with THAT penalty.

Such a frustrating game!! I think it was just one of them games tbh. We couldn't put them away. Fabregas should have buries his 2nd chance. Didier should have scored. Remy with one cleared off the line. Hazard was unlucky with a couple if chances. Defensively we look very suspect which is worrying and very unmourinho. They seemed frightened to death of Draxler. And to just back off and off to a player of Huntelaar's quality is suicidal really. But having said that I would rather the missed opportunities, defensive lapses and dropped points in this game than City on Sunday. Put it down to one of them games and move on.

Mate, you need to change your name to 'The Unhappy one'

That's correct. Which is also a European record. We won the other leg 8-0 also. 21-0 on aggregate which is another European record. One i doubt will ever be beaten. I heard a story that Ossie had a bet with Peter Bonetti that he would score 6 goals against them. He got to 5 and we won a penalty and Bonetti ran from his goal and handed the ball to another of our players!! Not sure how true that is though Also i think one of their players only had 1 arm.... again not sure how true that is. Maybe one of our older members can shed some more light on them stories.

Can't work out if you agree or disagree with me, lol! I was just responding to a few people who mentioned Rooney mugging off United for his 300k and saying how our board won't allow that to happen.

I am sure the club will not allow themselves to be mugged like United were with Rooney. They have acquitted themselves fantastically well this calender year. They will have a figure they feel Eden is worth and won't allow him to hold them to ransom. Whether that figure is 1,2 or even 300k. The board will do the right thing.

Came here thinking I might be the only person thinking of a rest for Diego, obviously I was wrong With City next weekend I don't think we should risk the subject hamstring. Maybe rest Fabregas and JT also. Other than that, the rest the same. Tibo Azpi, Iva, Cahill, Luis Rami, Matic Hazard, Willian, Schurrle Remy

You're shitting me.... makes me feel sick!!

Anybody other than Costa winning this would have been ridiculous. Well deserved. Keep it going Diego!!

Fantastic news!! Get in there Tibo!!

60 mill for him?? Wasn't Jose talking about 100 plus in the summer? Surely with an extra year of experience and excellence and a 5 year contract behind him the figure will be around the 100 mark?? If it was to happen that is.

Thats what i thought.... I am sure we have just recently signed a new long term contract with Samsung??

Oh yeah.... haha!! I have obviously blocked that from my memory!

Oh right, I see. Thought somebody was having a laugh down there.

Protecting a lead, a Chelsea weakness??? Who came up with that? Have we surrendered a lead this season? Nope. In fact other than the Athletico home game last season, when was the last time we didn't keep hold a lead because i am struggling to think of it! Lmao!

Kill me now....

Fucking HATE INTERNATIONAL BREAKS!!!!!

Fuck. Sake..... I KNEW this would happen!!! Even if he is fit to play, rest him against Swansea, Remy And Didier can take care of that. We need him fit and firing for City the week after!

Ba was first 29 and changed to 19 last season. 18 was lukaku for the short period he was here and remained vacant for the rest of the season if i remember right? And previously Yuri Zhirkov.

Fantastic news and well deserved for a player who is underrated outside of this football club. Integral part of our first team now and i look forward to watching him play his best years at the club. Well done Dave!!

Still don't stop them being shit in defence and midfield. They could have all the strikers in the world but if they can't dominate midfield or keep the ball out the back of the net then it doesn't matter. Don't worry yourself about it. A quote i saw last night. Signing Falcao is like going into hospital for heart surgery and coming out with a boob job. It looks good but is completely fucking pointles!! Sums it up nicely i think

Just got to hope and pray we don't pick up any injuries over the shittty fucking international break!! If no injuries then i don't see no trouble here. Our team is so strong over the pitch. From 04-06 i was so confident going into every game we played. I have never felt that way since.... but slowly and surely my confidence is growing with this team. I'm going into games like this thinking, we just can't lose here. Just like 8-10 years ago!! Tibo Iva, Cahill, JT, Azpi Matic, Cesc, Schurrle, Oscar, Hazard Costa Strong and powerful with lots of flair + the clinical finishing of Costa. Fucking brilliant and unplayable!!

Fantastic signing!! And a good price at 10 million. Last season - Torres, Eto'o Ba This season - Costa Remy Drogba Upgrade and a half imo!! Well done to the Chelsea board and welcome to Chelsea Loic!! Also, kudos to whoever it was who said in the previous Remy thread that it would be awsome we announced it during the Arsenal game
