Wilson 358 Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 We can still win the league. A big ask but we are Chelsea! Beat Citeh, Liverpool and United twice and stop drawing or losing against smaller teams. We can still do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peace. 4,352 Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I'd settle for a top 4 spot and a CL and FA cup double.You and me both mate With our actual form, I would be happy even with the FA cup and a place in CL lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDN Blue 7,903 Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 With our actual form, I would be happy even with the FA cup and a place in CL lolWell at least with the FA Cup we're guaranteed a Europa League place, which in turn would lead to a Champions League place if won LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZanSnake 1,211 Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 FA Cup win, and fight for either fourth or third position. To win the CL is kind of hopeful, but then again could be a possiblity if the lads get their heads from the ground and concentrate!If we have to play Europa League next year then so be it! At least when we would win it we won SOMETHING in Europe and then have the oppertunity with the Super Cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henrique 9,133 Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 When Carlo says that we still can win the Premier League, he do looks like Wenger in past 7 years, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostas 1,468 Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 The league is gone, get over it.Of course we can hope that we will fluke the Champions League but that's not the way proper teams should be planning.From now on our priorities should be:2nd or 3rd spot in the league, 2nd may be hard but 3rd is still very much reachable.Winning the FA Cup and having yet another trophy-less year is the difference between us and Arsenal. We can still make history so we have to give it our best.CL semi-finals. There we will get eliminated without losing our status in Europe.

Madmax 9,219 Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 The league's a write-off, best we can hope for is 3rd place. Atleast that'll guarantee CL qualification without having to go through a playoff. I was more optimistic before December because we were yet to play the direct title rivals and by winning against them we'd been in the thick of it but the dropped points at Spurs and Arsenal mean the postponed United game is useless. City/United will be long out of sight by the time March rolls around.We'll do well to go past Copenhagen in the CL. The players don't want to turn up for games. They only start stringing two passes together once we're a couple of goals down in the 70th min. There's no pace in the play, no movement, no understanding. You'd think they're playing together for the first time in the their lives. Were we to come up against Barcelona we'd be hit for double figures, even with Cech on his best form. A quarterfinal appearance is what I hope for.Only realistic hope of silverware this season is the FA Cup if the draws are favourable to us and some of the big boys knock each other out. This season is a replica of the 08-09 season.If I were Carlo I'd focus on getting the 3rd spot and riding our luck to a QF/SF CL appearance and a long FA run.

Swoopz 183 Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Were we to come up against Barcelona we'd be hit for double figures, even with Cech on his best form. Thats exactly what Im afraid of. If we land any of the spanish teams during the CL, we're fucked. Might aswell park the bus and hope for the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owizzy 19 Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 IS IT REALLY FINISHED???, WE (CFC AND FANS ALIKE) ARE VICTIMS OF A DOWNSLIDE IN PLAYER FORM: ESSIEN HASN'T BEEN AS WE USED TO KNOW HIM, SAME GOES FOR DROGS, LAMPARD YET TO RE-IGNITE, RAMIRES ALL ENERGY MINIMAL DIRECTION, ANELKA GUESS YOU NEED A REST, FERRIERA I HAVE NEVER SEEN PLAYED WITH CONFIDENCE LOOKS LIKE A LADY IN THE MIDST OF MEN. MALOUDA WHERE HAS YOUR GLITZ GONE TO? PLEASE GUYS WAKE UP AND SHOW PEOPLE THAT YES YOUR SUCCESS LAST YEAR WAS NOT A STROKE OF GOOD FORTUNE RATHER IT WAS WELL MERITTED BY A CROP OF SKILLFULL LADS WITH AN UNDERSTANDING GAMEPLAN. I HAVE ALWAYS SAID THE GUYS IN DEFENCE SHOULD STAY BACK IN DEFENCE TO MAN OUR FORTRESS. LETS REVERT TO OLDEN DAYS FOOTBALL AND RE-INTRODUCE FORMIDIABLE WING ATTACKERS (LETS DROP THE CONCEPT OF DEDICATED WING-BACKS AS THIS HAS PARTIALLY LED TO OUR DEMISE BY HEAPING PRESSURE ON THE 2 CENTREBACKS (AND IN SOME CASES 1 CENTRE-BACK WHEN IVAN-THE-BRUT LOSES CONCENTRATION). LET KALOU (SOMETIMES UNPREDICATBLE THOUGH) AND STURRIDGE HELP OUT IN THE ATTACK AND ALSO CONVERT VAN-ANHORLT TO AN ATTACKING LEFT WINGER, MALOUDA CAN ROVE AROUND AND PLAY FROM ANY FLANK.

neel 257 Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 3rd place is a reasonable target. Out of the CL spot will be disastrous. It will reduce our revenue and It will be extremely hard to attract world class player. We might end up with some overrated players with Inflated transfer fees and crazy wage demands.

strong centreback 157 Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Id say aim for second/third in the league, fa cup final win and as far as possible in the champions league for this season, whilst the league is still possible it doesn't seem likely to happen due to needing results to go in our favour, that all said one positive from the last couple of months is that maybe the 'football board' has got a swift kick to the ballacks and can see what seemingly everybody else can, that we need an extra attacker of some description, for christs sake we were in for neymar most of the summer so it was obvious the club wanted another attacking option yet when we didnt get him we seemingly had no other targets so the club should rectify that in January.

Owizzy 19 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Do you remember the Caps lock?:mellow:Yellow card to me for CAPS LOCK (lol).I like the quote: "Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment." -- Buddha,This should be the watch word for our dear Chelsea lads,If they focus on the current situation and believe in their capability they can with total determination earn all the remaining 3 points till the end of the season. They should learn to correct their flaws and Ashley Cole should start believing that his right leg is also allowed to kick the ball. Paulo Ferriera should only be used in training he is LAZY (excuse the caps needed for emphasis), he has been largely responsible for most of our travails.
