Closed Sunderland v Chelsea

"Lamps"

Lamps was coming on but needed a hot water bottle on his calf - not a good sign

That's what commentators said anyway...

[Milan 17,886]

Arsenal leading 1-0 after a penalty. And it was a blatant dive from Cazorla, blatant.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Four goals and an assist for Torres in five games under Benitez. The Rafa-Effect, if you will.

[Nero 1,852]

who the fuck is falcao????

"Lamps"

DM= Defensive midfielder

Despite the score line we were getting battered without a DM. Rafa needs to find a solution at HT. I think we need to switch to 4-3-3 if we want to hold on.

[Miracle 249]

The difference between this and all the preceding games is that we finally got the 2nd goal.

[Naked Mole Rat 437]

Am I reading 'great half'? It was f'cking woeful. That midfield better get a bollocking by Benitez.

A great "quarter" more like. We've been dominated by Sunderland, a team sitting just above the relegation zone, after 20 minutes in. We're lucky we haven't conceded any yet.

EDIT: Maybe not dominated, but we were still very poor.

[Hutcho 8,443]

if we don't win this i will genuinely cry.

[AndersonBLUE 819]

You seriously saying Torres is back? Just lol. People change their minds so quick.

[Madmax 9,219]

Arsenal leading 1-0 after a penalty. And it was a blatant dive from Cazorla, blatant.

I'd love to see Voyeur try and defend that dive.

Really?!

Lamps can play there anyone...

i guess all the singing of the fernando torres chelsea #9 at my game last night paid off haha

"Lamps"

Nope, Lampard is the link man who triggers the pressing in 4-2-3-1.

Indeed. Tremendously lucky Larsson gave us that gift, cause we really are lucky to have that cushion.

[Milan 17,886]

In 2011, if we really wanted Torres so badly, we should have signed him with Benitez in one pack lol.

[Rmpr 8,977]

But on the other side Chelsea is getting a shit load of exposure here, being all over the news can't be bad for our image. :blue scalf:

If we win it mate, if we win it!
