Has gone under the radar a lot but we've kept 5 clean sheets in 8
Jm10
Only the 2 league goals conceded too, good start to the season :) let's hope it continues against the gooners Saturday lunch time.

The two best defenses in the league!

Are Chelsea still interested in Lazar Markovic? If so are they looking on signing him in the near future?

Chelsea are interested in Milan youngster Bryan Cristante. Cristante could be available for £1 million.

mceachran debruyne lukaku
De bruyne looks very good, hopefully when he returns he can replicate his current form for Chelsea, especially as he plays in the center of midfield.

Chelsea recalled 19 years-old Rohan Ince from his loan spell at Yeovil.
Ince returned to Stamford Bridge on Saturday to receive treatment on a recurring ankle injury and will now remain with his parent club.

Chelsea will start like this after January:
Cech
Ivanovic Luiz Ramos A.Cole
Fellaini
Ramires Oscar Mata Hazard
Falcao
Subs:
Hilario
Azpilicueta
Terry
Moses
Bertrand
Lampard
Torres
Best laugh I have had in ages ! Like every team in the premier league , you have no chance in signing Falcao or Fellini but I like the way you use your imagination !!
Davo
Azpilcueta rb but agree otherwise
We dont need ramos, hopefully kalas will be intergrated in to the first team.

Pfft ramires right wing... CLUELESS
What did u expect, he is not a fan. Each day we find more and more non Chelsea fans commenting on this page. Some, like Puzzled, identify themselves and that's perfectly fine, but most try to pose as supporters.
27 Sep 2012 17:28:06
I think we are 2 players away from an absolute top team. A goal scorer and a holding midfielder. I believe luiz could fill the holding role but we need a 20 goal a season striker. Agree ?
We have Romeu, holding is not an issue as long as we don't play Lamps with Mikel there.

I really don't understand the FA's decision to ban Terry for 4 matches. The whole saga has been farcical. They waited almost 2 months, after he was found innocent in a court of law, to arrange a hearing. The sheer and utter disregard to the fact that he was cleared in a court of law is comical. To charge him after he was cleared leads me to believe that, the FA think they are more capable of making a decision than a court of law. What possible right do the FA Regulatory Commission have to seemingly ignore the verdict of a court of law and supersede it with a decision of their own. The burden of proof in a court of law is on the prosecution, that means they had to prove without doubt that Terry made racist remarks. Which they were unable to do. The fact that the FA believe they are better able to provide such evidence or charge him on the same evidence provided is absurd. Whether Terry made a racist remark is irrelevant in this case. The fact that the FA deem themselves capable of subverting our legal system is ridiculous.
What does everyone else think of the decision? (Including you ED's)
Hunter {Ed002's Note - You need to understand the delay was as a result of Terry's lawyers. Suck it up and move on.}
He was found not guilty in the eyes of the law, decision is a disgrace.
I think it's stupid aswell but a court of law you need more evidence than the fa would need for one of their hearings.
Blue con
There is a vast difference in the standard of proof and you clearly have no grasp on FA rules nor the rule of law.
Got what he deserved I'm afraid,there is no argument that he said those words just the context in the way he said them. The words he used were wrong he needs to apologise accept his ban and move on.
It was quite clear from the beginning he would be found guilty. To start they stripped the captaincy. They then lost their coach as a result. He was found guilty in a court yet they still took action against him. The fa weren't gonna go back on all of that and find him not guilty. Those individuals have some kind of pride and regardless of the actions of terry the way they handled everything was quite sad.
Tk
He got what he deserved I'm afraid,he said the words no argument therefore the fa have every right to charge him.

Well done FA. The whole world and his dog saw the TV footage. This behaviour cannot be tolerated and I hope that this makes all players take note and become aware of the priviledged position they are in. JK
27 Sep 2012 22:40:41
well personally i would have called him worse if he through an elbow at me. BLUEBOY1
Im an American Liverpool supporter. I think the bans handed to both Terry and Suarez were and are shambles. I also dont think either is a racist
Maybe a$$holes. But I also want to point out I am grateful to live in a country that protects my right to call anyone anything I want. It may make me an person but at least I can say it. After all its just words.q {Ed013's Note -
I am a Glasgow Rangers fan and I think the way John Terry has been treated has been disgraceful. I was raised to believe 'sticks and stones may break your bones but names will never hurt you.' John Terry is a hero.
29 Sep 2012 08:47:13
Terry a HERO. {Ed061's Note - I agree mate.}

For the Arsenal game I don't see RDM playing a very attacking line-up. The likes of Moses/Romeu/Azpilicueta won't start either. All 3 of them played mid-week and got their first starts/games and so RDM will go for a team that's more experienced and more cohesive and knowledgeable about each others play.
Cech
Ivanovic Luiz Terry/Cahill Cole
Mikel Lampard
Ramires Mata Hazard
Torres
Terry playing will depend on his hearing. Mikel/Lampard/Ivanovic were completely rested midweek obviously with the view that they will play on Saturday.
What's everyone else's thoughts?
Hunter
For the 1000th time, Ramires is as much a winger as you are a Chelsea fan. Jog on.
Stop jumping down his throat, he gave his opinion as to what he thinks RDM will play against arsenal, not what he thinks he should play
If it was up to me i'd never play Ramires as a winger. I was simply stating what I think the line-up will be i.e what RDM will choose. If you had actually read the post you would of seen that I clearly state that.
Hunter
And Mikel/Lamps in the pivot after every REAL Chelsea fan on this site has been arguing against it and RDM in recent matches (plural) has gone away from it. I stand by my comment, u clearly don't care for the club.
Us real fans are praying that RDM has turned the corner on his decisions, if you're a fan I don't see the point in posting this even if you think it. Jog on.
So you don't think real fans can post realistic comments? And by doing so I therefore don't care about the club? Yeah that makes sense... Fortunately not all Chelsea fans are persons like you. I've hated the Mikel/Lamps pivot since the start, and as for RDM turning a corner and having moved away from it; well he played fringe players in Capital One cup so was never going to play Mikel/Lamps there. So that just leaves the Stoke match, I hardly think changing the line-up for one match could constitute turning the corner. I sincerely hope that RDM never plays them in the pivot role together again but that's highly unlikely. Hopefully now that Marin is getting fit again and Moses is now integrating into the team Ramires won't play on the wing as much but if we're being logical, RDM will continue to play Ramires and Bertrand as wingers against stronger oppositions.
Hunter
And if you think you know what line-up RDM will pick, why don't you post it with your name and we'll see who's closer.
Hunter
27 Sep 2012 11:57:01
lets be serious now, theres no way RDM will play hazard mata and oscar against the gooners, weve looked so open with them, we can get away with it against the lesser teams but arsenal will just pass us to death like they did against city.
As much as I dont want it to be... I think RDM will play this side...
.........cech
ivan luiz terry cole
.....mikel ramiers
.......lampard
hazard torres mata
27 Sep 2012 12:42:30
I dont think RDM should play Mikel. Romeu is much better option as his passing is much better than Mikel's.
Moreover I would consider starting with Moses instead of Oscar.
Always Blue
We have looked so open playing younger, more athletic, better players who are all willing to help on defense and who keep better possession thus surrendering less shots at Chech as we have had since the Juve match? Oh yea because Mikel in holding is great and why not play lamps on the wing.
27 Sep 2012 09:20:04
in next 2 transfer windows chelsea will sell / release these guys- ferreria, cole, malouda, lampard, torres, sturridge, essien, hilario, kakuta, benayoun
a striker and a central midfielder will arrive in january. kalas , de bruyne, van anholt will be integrated into first team. mceachren remains a mystery. his return into chelsea squad depends upon who well he plays in championship.
kings xi punjab chelsea brisbane roar. {Ed061's Note - I'm not convinced Van Arnholt will be integrated into Chelsea's first team.}
I'm not sure this guy has a clue about anything to be honest! What a load of rubbish, Cole is getting a new deal for one!
Chelsea Nick
Really u think van arnholt would be integrated into the team and josh wouldn't ?
tells how little u know.
ELI
Josh won't either...
Torres and Essien would depend on their performances this year and Sturridge will only leave if he doesn't sign a new contract. Cole will still be here for 2013/2014.
27 Sep 2012 08:55:52
I know everyone believes we can win , and some will
Say we will win, but who would take a point right now, against arsenal ??
Though a win would put us 7 clear of them, and with man utd playing spuds in the later ko, a loss would devastate us
Just my thoughts
Jm10
I'd probably take it Jm10. It's at the emirates and keeps arsenal at arms length. Hopefully the spuds can get a result.
Melbourne CFC
I'm in between. Arsenal are on a role but so are we. I have no doubt we can go and get a win but its always a mystery. We split our games two years ago and drew one and lost one last year. It's really tough but I'd prolly go for it. I think it's a matter of if you would rather lock up a top 3 or challenge for the title.
Tk
Chelsea 2-0. Another clean sheet and all 3 points, its all up to RDM.

27 Sep 2012 00:18:14
i hope RDM does not use Ivanovic,mikel or romeu I would play a 4-2-3-1 and as follows
-----------------------CECH--------------------
-AZPI------CAHILL--------TERRY-------COLE-
-------------RAMIRES-------LAMPARD--------
-----MOSES----------MATA-------HAZARD---
----------------------TORRES------------------
MOSES would add width to the team and AZPILLICUETA was solid against wolves and has pace to keep up with their fast counter attack... also LUIZ has been great but he still could make the silly mistakes as he usually does..no doubt playing TERRY and LAMPARD will lift Team spirit.. If we were going for class replace LAMPARD for ROMEU and we will be strong...I also wouldn't mind seeing OSCAR and/or PIAZON
These are my views and be sure to post any suggestions
BILLY
-Terry courtcase
-Lamps has a ankle problem.
-Why leave Oscar out?
-Its such a important game we have to play a defender that we can trust Azpil will certainly make his way into the 1st team in the coming games just not arsenal away.
cech
Iva.*Cahill*Luiz*Cole
Rami*Romeu
Mata*Oscar*Hazard
Torres
-Its good to have legs like Moses late on in the game as a sub.
Cech
The above team would be my choice as well unless Terry is available!
Chelsea Nick
