Closed Chelsea 2-1 Man City

[bluesman2610 1,417]

Torres is back. Officially. What Bitter-Boas, King Robbie, King Carlo, Rafa all failed to do, José has done. ALL HAIL THE SPECIAL ONE!

Okay, let's not go that far, but that was a top performance by Torres. I think we have to accept he is no longer a brilliant striker, but he is an excellent footballer that can have an important function for this team if these performances continue.

well done on the rhyme there

[Rmpr 8,977]

Told you we would win!

[Zoro 151]

Hope this means we will get through the winter period better than we have done for the last few season.

Whoever votes for Hazard should be gangbanged, yes, I'm talking about you "tapa", you are clearly a troll to vote for Hazard who just had the worst game in Chelsea shirt.

Lmaoooo Grow up. It is just this kind of hyperbole that divides us here on the forum.

Hazard was decent and had a great work rate; Hell, in the first half he was practically a full back.

Besides: Lampard was meh, Oscar had blips, Cahil had a big bli, ....

BUT we won. So continue to be a sour puss, Hazard did really ok, worked , made space, just wasn't decisive as he apparently on here ought to be every time.

Blah blah. Who does. This is a fucking TEAM sport. We need our players being great in the team thing. I don't care about a single performance, it is why we do as a team.

Ps: Same counts for the whole Mikel discussion and the left wing discussion. crap. We are fans of a team, nothing more.

[Special Juan 28,141]

Schurrle was picked for a reason, his work ethic and to get at people and cause problems. His movement for the goal was brilliant but most of all he kep Zabaleta quiet nearly all game.

[Kish9 50]

Who would have thought....Torres MOM for us against Spurs, Napoli and City all in one season.....and before November

[DDA 9,938]

The most satisfying thing about today was... that warm, smug and enthralling feeling that you get when you see Jose celebrating with our family.... Chelsea till I die... now I'm going to get even more drunks and celebrate like a mad man:-)

Eden even made Zabaletta dance. What more could you ask for.

Chill man for the record I fucking adore Hazard, and I don't care he had an off day at all because I have so much faith in him to be a super star for us. Probably that's also the reason why I critic him maybe harshly, his standard should be much higher than normal players.

[JVL 119]

Oh Chelsea i love you. What a great match it was, Torres was absolutely brilliant. Ramires what a beast. Thankyou Chelsea for making this a great weekend! <3

Lol, I know. It is not you I am criticizing, mate, just that post you made.

But sometimes you have a tough judgement as well :-) lmaooo

[Special Juan 28,141]

Must say he was on the losing side but Aguero is just brilliant.

[didierforever 7,349]

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT A RESULT.... atlast some luck... very much needed luck, and what a time to get it...

cech - poor by his standards to let that goal in. near post. one of those poor moments. but knowing cech, i expect 5 clean sheets in the next 5 games. 5/10

ivanovic - very good game. got well ahead and read the game brilliantly a couple of times. was very central in defence as both silva and nasri were pretty central. his moment against clichy when he nut-megged him was awesome. 7/10

cahill - same mistake. he is found out against good strikers. definitely not a WC defender but a pretty decent defender. his and JT's combo at the back is pretty solid and anything played into the D is dealt with brilliantly... 6/10

JT- another brilliant performance. he is showing that he is still our best defender and a WC defender at that. was beaten for pace once but cant think of anything other moment when he was in trouble. 8/10

cole - his best PL performance this season. was solid and supported hazard/schurrle brilliantly. he is slowly but steadily coming back to his own. 8/10

RAMBO - LIKE A FUCKING BOSS. what a performance. what a brilliant unbelievable performance!!! i have never seen yaya been subdued by another player , the way rambo did to him. just awesome. his ball to torres which he missed, his cross, his defendinf, running... i mean his EVERY-FUCKING-THING was brilliant. 10/10

lamps- played better than i and most here expected. was pretty decent compared to mikel who let silva and fernandinho run free. lamps put in hard tackles and complimented rambo well. 7/10

hazard - was good. took zabaleta/clichy on a few times. dint get as much purchase as i thought he would but a decent game nonetheles. 7/10

schurlle - pretty much the same as hazard. the only difference was, he got the all-important goal and tracked back way better than hazard. 8/10

oscar - very subdued. dint provide the link-up that was needed. but defensively was good. 7/10

torres - missed a sitter. went past clichy like he was not even there. hit the post like a shot so similar to the one that he scored against us with. (got on the wrong side of iva and curled it in, liverpool away, 2-0 defeat). he was direct, strong, pacy. his workrate was BRILLIANT and that is why he got his goal. to chase that ball down was like mou said "BELIEF". i have no idea what jose is doing to him, but god-damn, now he is looking like a 50mil striker. 9.5/10

subs -

willian - was really sparky since he came on. a direct sub for schurlle. decent 20 odd minutes. 7/10

mikel - poor. u r a DM and u cant tackle and not just that, he let fernandinho and navas run past him so easily that it seemed like a joke. he has to get his act together to have a chance playing for mou. 5/10

etoo - not much time to do anything. but for his clearance which hit zabaleta and earned us the thrown at the end, i ll say he was good. N/A

this has to be the result that will make us the favourites. arsenal will drop points in the coming weeks with the kind of fixtures they have, pool too and tottenham's luck will run-out sooner rather than later (how they keep getting those lucky calls for penalties is beyond me).

Wow so Hazard was decent but Lampard, Oscar and Cahil were poor. Lol this guy obviously thinks its Belgium national team and not Chelsea. Fuck off mate.

[didierforever 7,349]

mou's celebration for the goal was so awesome... hope he does not get into trouble for it.

[didierforever 7,349]

I AM SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HAPPY...

[Stingray 9,441]

Actually no, mate :-)

If you had seen more of my posts, you would have seen I had said Hazard was very average, but working hard , especially the first half. (I want to give you a full run by if you want).

Cahill I have never said anything about really, so I do not now what kind of a drink made you think that.

Oscar was good but faded in my account , thats my opinion.

So what now? Zoro? Fuck YOU with all that belgian bullshit once again. It has been bugging me for too long. I am calling YOUR bluff. ps Reported. I have had enough of this unsupported belgian fan claim. It is so boring and racist.

Gotta be mate, it hurts my arse to see him under-performing in these big matches 'cause we all know he is capable of doing so much better, I expected him to outshine everyone on the pitch.

Here come the 'Lets not be happy' brigade.
