Closed Chelsea v Newcastle

[samzilla 517]

so pessimistic, which is my natural state, btw

hope for the best (win)

expect the worst (loss while city win, lampard scores the game winner again)

[LAM09 7,043]

Must win!

Home game = banker.

It is Swansea away the week after that has me concerned....

Not if Bony is gone by then as is expected.

Bony will be at the African Cup of Nations regardless. Ki Sung-Yueng will also miss it due to the Asia Cup.

Newcastle will be without Cisse and Tiote

Oh, yeahhhh...

Completely forgot about that. In that case we should be smoking both of these. Hopefully our boys will be angry about the Spuds result and come out to make a statement.

[Special Juan 28,118]

Just start Zouma please.

we should but away form been so dodgy who knows

[LAB 1,030]

Very quiet in here. It's all because of Messi I guess.

Tibo, Azpi, Zouma, JT, Luis, Matic, Ramires, Fab, Hazard, Remy, Costa. Doubtful though.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

No way Zouma starting this, after he play in midweek. He is no Cahill.

[Jase 43,479]

Steve Holland to do the presser at 12.30pm UK time...

[Jase 43,479]

Considering we have had a week to rest and prepare for this game, am expecting a fast and strong start against a managerless side. But on the other hand, won't be surprised if we start tentatively given what happened in the last league game.

Hope Eden Hazard can repeat

- Eden Hazard scores the first treble of his Chelsea career as the Blues beat Newcastle 3-0 at the Bridge.

Holland: 'Jose has made it clear that in this transfer window nobody stays and nobody goes.' #CFC

"Nobody stays"! I want Messi here as much as the next Chelsea fan, but selling the entire squad to finance his move sounds a bit extreme, if I'm honest...
