Nothing but a win in my book & convincingly to satisfy us all.

It has been far from perfect start for Chelsea so far. However, only two points off the top, so far.

Several injuries on the team, but nothing major not to overcome.

I expect Bertrand to start at LB.

Chelsea 3 Cardiff 0.

Mourinho: 'Torres is ready to play and he is selected.'

Mourinho: 'Ashley is not fit, he can't train. Ryan Bertrand is more than ready to play.' #CFC

Chelsea FC ‏@chelseafc50s

Mourinho says Andre Schurrle has a slight niggle after returning from international duty and will be unavailable for selection. #CFC

Schurrle injured.

[Eidur the Spider 4,515]

Torres scores, looks great, gets sent off. Calling it now

[Special Juan 27,513]

Shame about Andre.

[xPetrCechx 13,565]

So no schurrle for 1 game... willian!

[Despiadado.Maleante 1,046]

I would go with

Willian-Mata-Hazard

KDB to come on

[Jype 6,398]

Torres

Hazard - Oscar - Willian

Ramires - Lampard

Bertrand - Terry - Luiz - Ivanovic

Cech

Judging by the team news I feel it's going to be something like that tomorrow. Too bad about Schürrle though, hope he won't be sidelined for long.

[Jype 6,398]

Well, now I'm confused. My twitter app showed that only two hours ago the club's official website posted an article named "Schürrle: feeling stronger" in which Andre said he's looking forward to tomorrow's game against Cardiff and now he's supposedly out with an injury suffered during the international break? To make things even more suspicious the article was deleted right after Mourinho's press conference.

Could it be that Jose is playing his mind games and tomorrow we see our perhaps most in-form player in the starting lineup after all? I hope so.

EDIT: Now the article's back but edited. What the hell is going on?

[Spike 12,049]

I feel sorry for the bluebirds.

[Sovieticus 743]

I feel sorry for the bluebirds.

Why for?

[Jype 6,398]

Why for?

Maybe because of this guy?
