Closed Derby v Chelsea

Wishing Zouma a speedy recovery. Hopefully it's just a minor concoction

That's why they were singing something about Gerrad:

From Sportsmail's Laurie Whitwell at the iPro Stadium

'Chelsea had been struggling to find a cutting edge but benefit from a slip by Richard Keogh, who was tormented in May after his error allowed Bobby Zamora to score the winning goal in the Championship play-off final.

'‘Are you Gerrard in disguise,’ chant the Chelsea fans, rather cruelly. Keogh makes a good sliding tackle on Didier Drogba to atone a little.

You wot m8? Did you watch the first half? Scoring goals is not the only indication of being good enough. Even I would score if I had those players around me. He killed nearly every attack we had. Should not be starting.

Every striker has their bad game even against the poorest of teams. Drogba obviously is not as good as he used to be but he certainly has proven me wrong in a Chelsea shirt since returning.

Oh, I hope that its nothing serious with Zouma.

Hope its nothing too serious.

Anyone got a HD stream? Mine just changed to the Valencia game.

Im not saying he should not play at all, Im saying Remy should play more as he is 1) Better & 2) a longer term investment.

Woops fell asleep and missed the first half ah well we are 1 - 0 up and a perfect goal.

[Chelsea Legend 11 4,062]

Hazard heating up family! 3 goals in the last 4 games.

[bethos1 802]

now we must to buy another CB?

Why? We have iva who can play CB and Christensen is good enough as another back up. And we also don't know how long Zouma will be out.

hard cushion I think... but that's it, only cushion, I don't see plastic or metal being part of it

I really hope so. Otherwise there could be some broken or fractured cheek bones.

[didierforever 7,349]

Well, there must be something hard inside to protect the skull. Plastic?

probably. just hope he is fine. the way azpi and cesc ran towards the snail paced medics was the biggest worry for me.

Has Drogba not proven his worth to you yet? Didier is in better form that's why he is playing. Remy can play out wide and will get chances to play there as well

No there's just high quality foam padding

Lol better form. Remy played like 10 minutes against Tottenham and scored. Drogba is dog shit. Legend he is but he isnt nowhere near as good as Remy. Cant run for shit either.

[DanishBlue 426]

Maybe Zouma lost a couple of teeth, that would be a damn shame. At least he can afford a good dentist if that's the case.

Are you taking the piss or what? What is wrong with you?

Agree. Zouma doesn't play in the PL anyway but in case we have Iva so Filipe can play on the left, Azpi on the right and Brana as a CB.

[Liquidator 5,176]

For those that follow the championship is this martin guy usually this cuntish?

He does have a reputation for being a bit of a prize bellend

[didierforever 7,349]

Drogba is dog shit.

and then people ask me why i am always so dismissive of the great opinions of the great members of this forum!!!
