I am not happy islam feruz was not even on The bench he is one of the best strikers we have and 2 night he would of got 5 goals himself does anyone know much about islam feruz all I know from what I seen this lad is going to be the best

Mate he's only 16. doesnt even play every game for the reserves yet. give him a few years and watch him blow up

Vincent

Indeed he is young but it was kinda impossible to do worse than Sturridge today :D

Are you his dad or agent?

Liverpool fan hear, well done Chelsea, I 8 MAN U,

We hate utd as well

Thanks Liverpool fans. We are all ironically united in our hatred of manchester, hopefully soon someone will stop their conquest of referees in the Premier League. So many over-rated United players at the moment and most of them are useless.
EH17

EH17 if they were so useless why did they beat your sorry ass 3-2?

Remember the time Drogba was several yards offside and Chelsea won the title?

-JakeW

The same day Joe Cole ripped your defence to shreds and scored a back-heel? The day Macheda handled a goal back for you? Yes I remember it quite well. Do you remember Manchester City knocking you for six last season at home?
EH17

EH17 you're forgetting sunday mate, 3-2 at home to a weakened team, then tonight you had to rely on majority of your first team to clinch a win against basically our reserves other than Rafael, well done. I think we will come away with more than what you did tonight you beat a bunch of kids, who gained bags of experience.


Anon {Ed003's Note - Oh my god what have I just eaten??? It's ok guys just a sour grape! }

Anon are you aware we only had 1 more "player from the strongest set up" than you did :) quit crying

This coming from a fan of manchester united...champions of.....oh wait i forgot you didn't win anything last season. You're not worthy of talking to fans of the champions of europe, sorry

Hazard, Ramires and Oscar have been sublime tonight. Moses has also impressed, Romeu and Azpilicueta look young, need some experience and made a few mistakes. Cech should have done better with the first goal but was all at sea for the rest. Cahill was fine and good finishing again. Luiz's attacking moments (Penalty, free-kick etc) was great but needs to stop bursting forward and is clearly not a defender, could be a great ball-playing midfielder though. Bertrand needs to get his crosses higher and away from the keeper. Sturridge took his goal well but missed far, far too many shots. Mikel did alright, needed to be subbed for switch to attacking play. Mata did fine but looks very tired again. Piazon didn't get a chance to show what he can do but is still clearly a good futuire prospect.
Also, on referee-watch: Can't argue with any of the three penalties, thought we should have had a third one following that handball from Wooton and also Wooton should have been sent off. Otherwise refereeing was excellent, particularly the handling of the Oscar-Nani clash late on.
And of course, always good to beat United!

One player who has really impressed me is cesar great defensively!
Jim132

I agree . cesar did great ... NANI could not get past him and his positioning was great ... just impressed by the work rate as well ... beaming forward late in extra time

i take back my criticism of sturridge. love his dance.

Best dance ever .... what in the world was he doin ... a cross between a crab and the egyptian dance

On a rather positive note,it looks like that champions mentality is embedded deeply within the team,everytime we concede i always get that feeling that the team will respond strongly.

If we could actually shoot we would win this match!
Jim132

We'll give you this one, it is the mickey mouse cup after all. And we have near enough our 3rd string out in contrast to your first XI barring cashley

31 Oct 2012 22:25:59
silly manc coz you lost its a mickey mouse cup..... u didnt give us nothing you got outplayed both games we just got robbed first game!! you enjoy not winning the league for a while because your team is no match for ours

curt

Yes because Cesar, Romeu, Bertrand, Piazon and Sturridge have played every minute of every match so far. Good to see Buttner fufilling his reputation as being the new Patrice Evra, can't defend! And Wooton looks superb also, other strikers will love playing against him with assists like that coming once a match!
You cheated us on Sunday, we took revenge tonight
EH17

Yeah your 3rd xi with hernandez, welbeck, nani, giggs. Do you have a secret 2nd xi? We started without oscar, hazard, ramires, cole, ivanovic, terry, torres. Thats seven starters.

31 Oct 2012 20:43:41
So here the 1st half you can clearly see the issue off or players lack of games due to Di Matteo's stupid decisions to play the same 11 people every match. Piazon,Mosses,Cesar,Romeu,Sturridge really lack games you can clearly see the played extremly bad but got better the more time they had on the pitch except for Sturridge some fails and selfish play today rofl. It's really dissapointing Di Matteo do not play more of the players on the bench, so people dont get burned out and our backup players get some playing time and gets a little better aswell as they dont feel like not being apart of the squad if they are on the bench 24/7.
And i dont know what to say about Luiz he is really starting to be a liability, and if contiunes like this i hope someone sit down and talk to him so he can shape up or he should f-off cause this is very silly. He constantly miss in the back and everytime he miss his passes's they score and i dont get why he even going forward.
On the positive: It was nice to see Romeu's passing and Mosses pace and good at winning the ball back.

31 Oct 2012 20:38:09
The problem with us is off the ball we seem to just go to sleep. Its very well looking good going forward but if we cant defend it means nothing.

hmmm, I wonder which official we'll start to blame tonight .... even with a better team out we still can't beat Utd

They can't blame anyone, correct. When they come up against the big dogs they get found out. Simples

The one which didnt give us a clear penalty

01 Nov 2012 10:14:39
why would we blame anyone we won........

Romeu is far better than Mikel, isn'nt it? He scored the first goal at least.

Bas!cs.

His passing not been great and mistake for first goal am looks slow but 100% that its down to lack of playing time, his a top player. Also Sturbridge tries to do far to much on all or something clever !

I think petr cech was to blame for the first goal. he didnt give romeu much space

It was not great Romeu but i think he tought he had better time otherwise Chech would not pass it to him. I am sure it is down to lack of playing time for Romeu but it was a rather stupid pass from chech aswell.

Romeu came forward to give him the option. Yes it's a bit of bad play but to be fair to utd they did press up high.

31 Oct 2012 19:34:32
Slightly disappointed that Marin isn't starting but a good strong line-up and hopefully a good result tonight. Happy that Piazon is featuring.
C'mon Blues!

31 Oct 2012 17:10:14
Also for all those saying that Torres is a s**t dribbler and that Falcao is better, Torres has a better dribble completion rate and a better duels completion rate.

Duels? As in slapped with a glove?

IB.

Who cares, we all know who scores the goals and who chokes.

Thats what Adam Bate called it. I assume it means one-on-one's with either defenders or goalkeepers.

Good Striker ... January ... come on ... any body who cah give us 25 + a season for the next 3 years is ok ... with Paizon ... Feruz ... Lukaku .. on the way

ED002 any team news for tonight Are Piazon and Ake expected to start? {Ed002's Note - Piazon is expected to start. Ake was in the squad that trained yesterday.}

We've in the past been quite dissapointed with the board for not acting quick enough in the transfer market, especially in the summer market that AVB came in. But I have to say they have pulled off some quite brilliant deals, and have brought in some awesome young players within our youth system. We have signed alot of the most wanted young players in the world. Within the next 5 years we will have the best attacking team in the world I'm sure of it. Players like Hazard, Mata, Moses, De Bruyne, Oscar, Piazon, Marin, Lukaku, Bamford and Feruz will destroy every team in the world, at the height of their powers, In my opinion they will all be class players. But also defensively we will be strong with a world class keeper in Courtois, Bertrand (who I think could be as good as Cole) and Azpilicueta who I think will be a class signing.

Future is bright.

PR!

We could maybe use a new, defensive trainer cause its not looking too good at the moment.

Yeah totally agree. A new defensive coach would be my first signing. We've missed Steve Clarke. I remember when Stamford Bridge was a fortress under Mourinho and we went 86 games unbeaten at home.

31 Oct 2012 10:25:02
With Drogba, we had an alternative style of play, but now with Torres you can't really do the same, but just remember that we have Drogba mark 2= Lukaku.

Islam Feruz Should be put in the team for todays game I I think he could really become a drogba/Rooney if brought in to a few first team games I and tbh Daniel Sturridge is not really that good
