Thank fuck that's over tbh. I was gripping my beer so hard I though I would break the bottle.

Torres makes games much more risky in regards to ones health.

[Ankit 3,176]

Can we bid for Wilshere please!!(I know he is arsenal through and through) but it's a mouth watering prospect of watching Wilshere and McEachran combine and form a parternship. Quality quality player.

[Laylabelle 9,359]

I can't understand what does rafa said to them in the half time talk... to play shit? ...

Good Result.

First Half from the heaven, Second from the hell.

Probably the same as he said to them against West Ham...just an insane 2nd half!

[CHOULO19 24,332]

On a side note: double over Arsenal!

[Bosnian Blue 2,471]

Should have won the game by the 60th minute, thank fuck we saved our lead despite what the Master of Tactics said and done in the HT.

Normal Manager:

Ba for Torres in the half time.

To tell the players- ATTACK!!!!!!!!! SCORE MORE!!! I WANT 5!

Rafa:

Ba for torres (83)

To players: Play like a shit.

Despite his endless stamina and some great efforts, I'm a little bit fed up with Ramires' decision makings.

Not the first time he chose to shoot to the crowd when he could easily pass the ball to someone facing the empty net.

If he passed that fucking ball to Hazard we could kill the game off in the first half.

[We Hate Scouse 10,286]

I noticed that. Incredibly embarrassing...Just get a new jacket. We're not Wigan/Stoke etc. We have money......

[Weckerz 3,781]

What the fuck does Rafa tell these players at HT? Tssk.

Cole motm for me, Ramires played well.

[Kojo 4,676]

By the way all those stupid Arsenal fans saying the first goal shouldn't of counted, should of been a free kick, remember Walcots goal against us in the 5-3 defeat?, that was a definite free kick, but nothing even got said, so shut the fuck up. Had it not been for ladyboy, we would've been about 4-0 up in the first half.

Rambo is just unbrained and unskilled...

But he is a hard worker so i guess this should be enough to be in the starting XI

[Ryan Fong 2,776]

Not a Rafa fan but to say he said something negative to the players is absurd and childish.

[Chels 238]

Lol, Jesus Christ we really make it hard for ourselves!

Feel tired and relived after watching that, very stressful, but very very happy.

Can we please stop with the Rafa wanted us to loose shit, never heard anything so stupid.

Yes he's did take longer IMO to make changes, but so do a lot of managers!

Just because it's Rafa, I wasn't best pleased when he took over not because he's a bad manager (which he isn't) but because of the Liverpool connection.

Sorry Rafa rant over.

Fuck it we just beat The Arsenal !! Very important win, so happy.

Good game. It's obvious that we were unbalanced in this game but I'm not going to complain. In the first half we were all over them and they were better than us in the second, so without being biased I'd say we deserved the win and they deserved their goal. Walcott is a great finisher and I knew we were going to concede as soon as I saw him in that position.

I can't believe they gave 5 minutes of added time though. Seriously. There weren't that many injuries today or fouls to require 5 minutes of added time in the end. I've never seen this happen in the Bundesliga or any other league. No wonder United keep scoring in Fergie time, and they'll keep winning titles getting winners this way, as long as 5 minutes of added time are awarded each game. It's kind of inevitable.

A game of two halves. In balance, we probably deserved the win, but both goals, we got calls that could have gone the other way. (Penalty was close, the Ramires tackle on Coquelin was definitely a foul though). Voted Ramires MOTM. Was dominant defensively even though he's pretty weak going forward. I don't understand the starting Mata, Hazard, and Oscar together thing. It looks great when we are dominating possession but the second we aren't, it's a mess. Too weak, too soft in possession. Hazard waited too long to make decisions. Oscar was dispossessed five times today. Cole was excellent. Cahill's last-minute tackle saved us. Rafa waited too long to make changes. All the changes he made were fine, but just took too long to make.

I'm glad Rafa took Santos off - I would never have played him. It's the same every game - Santos in the opponents' third, slow, no ideas, gets the ball, stops the attack, then gets the ball taken from him gives the other side a clear opening for a counter attack. He does it all the time in every game he plays. Chelsea very vulnerable to counter-attacks especially when majority of team is in the opponents third. Santos makes more misplaced passes than good ones.

1) Santos? I assume you're talking about Oscar? Why on earth call him Santos?

2) Oscar had a good game (Well a good 1st half like the whole team). What on earth are you talking about?

I know. He is one of a kind, such a mermaid. Love his hard working but frustrated by his clumsiness.
