pardew and tv pundits give thursdays europa match as reason for newcastles defeat. We had a midweek match and have now played one more than everyone else, and most of newcastles first team did not play Thursday..it all seems anti chelsea. Sid

Who cares what they think, we beat them , 3 points in the bag moving on........

ELI

Move on

Pardew always wines. Only person who does it more is old whiskey nose.

Tk

Ignore him he would of lost regardless we were the better team even when we sat back

we had games sunday, wednesday and saturday they had more rest than we did between games

I know this may come as a shock to many fans but I don't think we should sign another striker this transfer window. Signing a striker will probably mean the end for DS, who I would be very sad to see go, because he has an immense talent, is versatile and homegrown. If his decision making, (when to pass) improves he will become one of the worlds best. Signing a big name striker like Cavani would unfortunately also unnerve Torres as he has been told he will be the main man this season, plus set us back a mere £35m If Torres were to get injured I think Sturridge and Moses are more than capable of playing there. Due to our new style of play this season I think the striker position is less important as they will all get an abundance of chances, and whatever a Moses may lack in finishing compared to Torres would make up in link up play and technique! I would much prefer a new holding mid to come instead.

Im behind torres all the way as everyone knows but if signing a new striker 'unerves' him as you put it then surely he shouldnt be at such a big club

sturridge has got years ahead of him think in 4 years time our strikers will be lukaku, sturridge and cavani(if signed) so i dont see the problem of buying a striker

curt

Totally agree

cali

Do not worry mate,Torres would not be affected and signing Cavani will give us another option,plus we have so many games to play Torres is bound to get tired at some point.Moses and Sturridge are better second strikers and are not that good while leading the attack.With the amount of game we are aiming to play another striker is a must.
roan

I'm just saying that I don't see the point in splashing £30m+ on a striker that is probably going to be sitting on the bench.

1. The arrival of a big money striker will almost certainly mean the end for DS
2. There is uncertainty whether Torres will lose his form.
3. With the way the team is playing the striker only needs decent pace, touch and link up play to succeed.
4. Would like to see Bamford given a chance; we bought him for £1m after all.

I am really against buy another to name striker as well because its going to upset our current centre forwards and limit sturridges potential and also lukaku when he returns from loan. maybe buy a player like defoe who is content with being used as a sub.

cali

That's why I believe hulk makes more sense than cavani.

Tk

Hulk isn't even as good as Sturridge! Totally over priced and over rated!

city look weak what has happened to them over the summer

ill be happy with a draw or pool win

a pool win you ask well my theory is liverpool arent a threat to us bringing the league back to the bridge so would rather them take 1 or 3 points of city than city take 3 points off of them

curt

Yeah,they were a bit ragged and complacent in the middle of the park.They missed Silva ,he should have started.I would have just loved if they could have thrashed the persons 5-0 or 6-1.It would have shut the Pool fans for good.
But a draw is probably the best result for us.
roan

Bad news for you then roan

Puzzled

As ,I said the result suits us.

Anyone know when marin is due to return? {Ed002's Note - Mid September at best.}

It is a massive shame he got injured, he looked pretty impressive in pre-season

"When BR gets us playing like Swansea have last two games, with our quality, we'll be unstoppable. We'll be up there with the best teams in the world. I really hope the supporters and owners give him time, it will be worth the wait."
THIS WAS A POSTER POSTED ON THE POOL PAGE.

I go there sometimes to have a laugh and just to see how delusional people can be.

Apparently the Pool fans have forgotten that Micheal Laudrup is Swansea's manager now and are under the impression that BR is still Swansea's manager.They have also forgotten the fact that Swansea have signed quality players such as Michu ,who is in my opinion better than any POOL player at the moment.They have also forgotten that it was Martinez who first made Swansea play the way they do.
I mean their arrogance towards other club s is astounding.
Also they are planning to compel Sahin to stay with them after the season by chanting his name rather than by winning games.
Go to their page ,mates,I assure you that you will not be disappointing.
roan

Iv gone there a few times it is painful to read sometimes

man city will slaughter them today then they will be crying

curt

True that Roan, there is like a post every second at the scousers page and the next one even more delusional than the last, I mean they make me laugh so hard at times I start crying and ask my self how people could be so delusional, I meam "Tika-taka", the next Barca, Allen the next Xavi.....

Recommended to all who want to have a laugh. Trust me you wouldn't be disappointed.

Hmmmmm, no further comments today? Bit of humble pie eating me thinks!

I think us Chelsea fans should expect dark days ahead, we can never attract top talent and if we do we can never bring them on in their career! Think Roman will walk away soon but wot I Dnt understand is that its well documented he wants to win the champions league and he can't see with this bunch of players he won't get it! So that leaves Avb fighting a losing battle. Avb has got to go the football we play is a disgrace and a lot of the old guard have got to go! Whole of Chelsea needs to be built up from the tea lady to the the manager again! I can handle winning nufin for a few years as long as there are signs of us revamping this team bringing in youngsters! But until then its always gonna be the same old Chelsea in house fighting and acting like little kids!

Pinky

*************
Do you remember this post Pinky? What was the point in it? Or did you just fancy a good whine because we weren't top of the league. For anyone who wants to question the legitimacy of the post, it's in Dodgy Rumours section.
Support Chelsea, when we win, lose or draw. It's in our blood. I remember much darker days for this football club and it really does p*ss me off when I see posts like this from last season, half way through the season and fans giving up.
Look what happened at the end.
Love to hear what the likes of SHED END, Melbourne, Curt and Jm10 think of posts like this.
CFCFOREVER!
P.S. please let this post through eds, I want to name and shame pinky purely cause it is a great example of pointless negativity last season which was foolishly written and posted before the CL crusade.

I remember seeing that the dude is clueless yet sits on here on a regular basis calling all of us clueless

yes a disappointing first half to our season but theres no need for bull like this to be written no doubt he will be back with a load of rubbish if we finished top 4 this season

personally i think we are too good for settleing at top 4 we can easily win the league this season and put up a real challenge in every cup we participate

its going to be a good year lads

curt

Who does this CFCFOREVER fool think he is reposting other ppls post who come on here to posts their views I mean this is wot this site all about ant it! Very childish on his behalf


KevinCFC

Grow up CFCFOREVER and curt ppl can post their views on here!

KevinCFC

KevinCFC, you've been posting on this site for a few weeks. CFCFOREVER has been here for about a year. He has all right to complain about these posts, that kind of negativity is pointless. Leave Curt alone mate also, what's he done wrong? Nothing, stop backing up plastic fans
EH17

Well said hazard

kevin your a major tool i dont think a single person cares for what you have to say considering you dont even support chelsea

curt

I think KEVIN is PINKY! why would you post 2 posts straight after the other, obviously cuz your angry haha BLUEBOY1

Who cares if cfcforever has been posting on this site for yrs wot a stupid thing to say!

kevinCFC

Good shout blueboy i was thinking that was going to wait for him to reply

there both as negative as each other and both dont convince me there chelsea supporters its possible there the same person

curt

I live in india and i am the only one amongst my friends that has chelsea in his blood...i must admit it was scary facing the countless ridicule given how we were performing half-way last season...we all remained loyal and it was in their face on 19th may.....just saying that fans closer home to stamford bridge should not be like pinky....our players should always know the fans are behind them...even when things are bad....jumping the ship when we are bad shouldn't even be an option...times are great...let us fans be the loudest...

i trust roman, ron and roberto

taby

Nice post taby good too see we have fans all around the world too

your absolutely right though iv supported chelsea since when we even struggled to make top 6 and iv never jumped ship because we had a poor run of form

ill admit against barca last season i thought we might take a battering but i still watched the games and supported my heart out for the lads and when we got to the final i had such belief in us winning it and i was right to have that belief

kevin/ pinky you should stop posting

curt

All Kevin posts is his worries about the club and how we're not buying the players he wants so I won't miss him.. Nothing wrong with bringing up the past if pinky sed something rather silly.. It is a banter page.
Marley

I genuinely think that as a club we are starting to progress in direction that we set us up perfectly for thr future. We have won Tue chsmpions league, so its its still a priority but is not make or break In my opinion. I believe Robbie will be our longest serving manger for a while. Also our Youth System is pumping out the finest young talent in Britain.

Good times ahead.

PR!

I've supported Chelsea for 30+ years. How of many of you followed us to tinpot sheds when we were in the second and third divisions of football? When our club was sold for a pound? The fact we have reached so highly in the last nine years is a credit to how the club has adapted and no offences Kevin, some of your logic has been even more deluded than Pinky in that original post. Find something of CFC or Curt who posted something like the above negative drivel which Pinky (and you) spout out.
To Curt, anyone on the page and CFCFOREVER! Ignore this clown Kevin,
failed to ever post anything useful.
EH17
P.S: Can you (CFCFOREVER!) post another match report like you did for Reading on the Newcastle match? Cheers mate.

Cheers EH appreciate it

the thing ill admit to saying was hazard was poor for belgium against england but i jumped to a conclusion too quick and i admit that hes a beast no doubt

not making you sound old but im not even old enough to have supported chelsea 30+ years lol ;)

Very impressed with Di Matteo's tactics against Newcastle, Bertrand nullified most of Ben Arfa and Santon's forward runs as well as swapping wings to join the front 3 of Hazard, Mata and Torres. Mereiles and Mikel did give me a pleasant surprise, the way they stopped Cabaye and Anita passing the ball forward and around the centre spot and stopping it going wide was very impressive. Mereilles also tried to get as much as possible into Torres feet to get him running, that 60 yard pass was sublime. I'd prefer to see Oscar playing but if Mereilles performs like that, I have no qualms seeing him play there.
Only one Di Matteo
CFCFOREVER!
P.S. Imagine Lukaku in a few years if he keeps playing like yesterday!

Gotta agree mate after yesterday i found alot more patience for raul and mikel lets hope they keep it up because they will both be valuable to us if so either starting a game or from the bench

Guys, your thoughts on the ˜Rabona' from Torres ?I thought it was sick(in a good way),so nearly resulted in a goal with Hazad
setting himself up for the volley.
roan

It shows he has found his confidence to even attempt it because to be fair it can go horribly wrong (david dunn anyone)

curt

Great to see him playing with confidence again. Makes me remember the one and only reason I have ever been envious of Liverpool. An on form Fernando Torres will be a delight.

Hi Ed , do you think Oriol Romeu will be a part of RDM's plans ? I would hate to see such a huge piece of talent waste and be sold back to barca
Cheers.

Consider the fact If he plays regularly and plays well, Barcelona will take him back on the cheap. I suspect he will be used sparingly this year but will be intergrated into the new team.

I find it interesting that, thus far, the overall team play is much better when either Lampard or Mikel is off the pitch but not with them playing together.

Very good point. Mikel had a great game. Remember he was immense in the last 10 games or so of last season.
