3 things.

1. do you know what "mata" means in English from spanish?

2 i got battered on here for saying boswinga is good enough for chelsea when hes fit, malouda is good enough for left wing, what we need is a right winger, we should play 442, kalou is not good enough to start but is a good sub.

3. i slated anelka but he was good today, torres is not tough enough for the prem

Paganblue

Its nt that torres aint tough enough he doesnt get any balls played through the defence or any decent crosses but ur ryt we need a ryt winger, but havin mata would be ideal 2. and a creative mid is a deffo as well.

'Mata' = Juan Manuel Mata García, and means nothing different. I was unsure on Bosingwa, but I'm glad he's showing his class so far this season. It's good to know we have a good alternative in Ivanovic too. I think Malouda isn't up to it; a few tap ins at the back post each season doesn't make him good enough to start. Anelka is a better play than him. Kalou out if possible in my eyes, but I'm not training with the squad daily. Torres has shown that he does have the strength - I think it's more about him getting in the right positions and service like it's been said already.

What is the likelihood of putting a bid in for Hazard if we get Mata?

All this slagging of malouda and anelka by some supposed fans of the club I think a few apologise are in order. Nuff said

I don't think one game is enough for them to start being praised, both of them, on the whole, weren't great, they were both very lucky to score. ramires also had an average game other than a few well-timed tackles, bosingwa on the other hand, had a great game and was our only source of width. if things are to improve we desperately need sturridge back. the purchase of juan mata should provide some much needed with and creativity.

I disagree. Anelka was more lively than usual, and I would start him every time in the absence of Sturridge. I think Ramires was forced to all the running in midfield because Frank just wasn't really there for a lot of the game and Mikel is a very one-dimensional player. Torres looked to do too much because he was let down by a lack of support, AGAIN. He lost the ball a lot running in to 4-5 players. Bosingwa and Cole were forced to be our wingers and defenders - I know Chelsea play with 'wing backs', but still..

Hes got a point to prove simple, thats all if he plays the next 5 games watch anelka drop of again.

watchn d westbrom match. modric alone wnt b enough 4 dis chelsea midfield cos lampard is actually doin nothing on d pitch.lamp is jst completin d numbers.thats my opinion plz feel free 2comment.thanks

Same old chelsea this is horrible to watch, if were getting a new manager why not change the way we play and change some players. ridiculous

Ya lampard is doing nothing, modric would honestly make a huge difference, and i also think mikel played well today and i also hope alex is gone before the end of the window because that was a horrid game for him. He looks so lazy and slow when he is playing its honestly ridiculous but im glad we got the 3 points

Matt-

Lampard almost never moves with the ball. He looks like he doesn't know what to do on the ball. Being a regular starter at 33 is a bridge to far for super Frank.

All he does is pass side 2 side. i would play mceachran instead, i bet thats the plan, wheel frank off of regular starts ;)

kalou started against w brom now pulled off before half time, this man should never start a chelsea game, hes a late sub only

Kalou is the luckiest footballer alive because when he aint falling over is own feet or missing open goals he his giving the ball away cheaply , please Chelsea get rid of him and stop playing Lampard because he really has become a waste of space

Lampards a legend you arseh*le, show respect.

Another t**t that cant see beyond his rose tinted glasses when it comes to lampost I mean lampard . when his free kicks and corners beat the first player come back to me . if not , zip it

When ever i see kalou on the team sheet i cringe and feel cheated , anybody else feel the same ?

LAMPARD IS TOO SLOW AND PAST IT , YES HE WAS AND ALWAYS WILL BE A CHELSEA LEGEND , BUT LETS BE HONEST HERE , HE WOULDNT GET IN MANY PREMIER TEAMS ON HIS LAST 6 MONTHS PERFORMANCES . HE HAS TO STOP TAKING FREE KICKS AND CORNERS BECAUSE HAS SOMEBODY PREVIOUSLY STATED HE CANT BEAT THE FIRST PLAYER.

GET RID OF KALOULESS , HE KEEPS FALLING OVER HIS OWN FEET AND PASSING TO THE OPPOSITION , PROPER YANK

Please AVB stop playing kalou , he looks like a new born dear that cant stand up and falls over his own legs , enough , is enough . the general cconsensus is that most Chelsea fans are completley fed up with him. {Ed018's Note - how many times you gonna post something about negative Kalou or Lampard today.}

Its cost £ 60 .00 to watch these people play . do you get my drfit ?

Hey. Kind of irrelevant but does anyone know where you can listen to live streams of the chelsea matches usually? My broadband is acting way to slow to watch it. Any help is much appreciated.

Please can we stop all the Mata questions? He is close to joining, understand? Most of these stupid questions can be answered if you bother to type it into google.
Mr. Chelsea.

Replace kalou with sturridge and you've got a great team.

Swap lampard for mceachran. kalou for studge
