Closed AC Milan 0-2 Chelsea

[Jype 6,398]

Not a bad pre-season so far, eh? 5 wins in 5 with a goal difference of 17 to 2.

KdB, MvG, Azpi and Courtois, where the hell do the Chelsea board keep finding these guys for around the £7m mark? That really is some amazing business done these past couple of year and we can all be very proud of the club right about now. No more infamous record-breaking flop signings but instead cheap youngsters who are ready to make an immediate impact and can offer the club over ten years of service if everything works out.

I thought I had gone blind with everyone saying he's back to his old self while I felt he looked slow and lacking dynamism.

Anyway, there were too many good performances to count. Having quality squad depth is a breathe of fresh air!

well they are like Bolt compared to Mikel

Anyone got the dribble of Torres in gif form?

We played acmilans best team in the first half and their 2nd team in the 2nd half. So the peformance in the first will carry more weight for me. Mou please place KDB and mata together next.

Sorry if this has been asked before, but is the match against AS Roma our last pre-season match before Hull?

We seriously have the best defence in Europe. we always were good defensively anyways .. but f#cken hell, we are SOLID. you're never going to score against us from a corner/set piece. the only way a team can score against us is by a counter attack. we have strong and tall centre backs and very defensive minded full backs in Cole and Ivanovic. Cole is the best tackler in the game IMO and you're never going to outmucle Bane. Cahill and Terry are so damn strong physically, good with the ball and unstoppable in the air.

Anyone seen how many freaking blocks we made today when Milan were attacking? Cech and Shwarzer barely touched the ball.

Hazard, Oscar, Mata, KDB, Moses....

Another excellent game for Moses. Hazard is going to be completely unstoppable this year. He is not even 100% fit and glides through the opposition so easily, so enjoyable to watch. Based on merit if things go the way they do I hope Moses starts against Hull because he has shown that despite a new manager and new signings that he is not going to be simply pushed out and surely is giving Mourinho a few selection headaches. Good goal by KDB too and good general performance but MOTM definitely has to go between Hazard and Moses. Terrorised the opposition repeatedly. Mourinho for sure has a tough decision on who is going to play the opening game of the season. Bar Hazard who I am sure will be in the starting lineup against Hull it really is hard to say starting from the two pivots in midfield and the attacking trio, followed by the striker slot, who will start.

Good position to be in as we look very strong in depth and players are on form so far

Fun fact: There was a belgian on the scoresheet every match this pre season.

Jose probably wanted to protect him from hurting himself. The poor guy may break his neck tripping over the ball like he did earlier.

too his credit he did get up right after that and nutmeg the milan player
