Chelsea FC 2014-15

Thought we played well enough to win that in the second half but in the first half for all our pressure we didn't really trouble their keeper . Cahills slip proved costly for their first goal and the second was just one of those things. All credit to that kid who came on in goal for them though.

Bit of a dead rubber game up next in the champions league and then Hull at home I think.
 
Yes a couple of "easier" games coming up, City have too so we have to get the consistency and confidence up and running again sharpish.
Drogba is on fire at the moment and is lifting the whole team when he is on the pitch. He could help José big time over the next few weeks. I'd be inclined to start these games with him at Costa's expense.
 
Only saw that last 50 minutes or so but that was pretty comfortable.

Schurle was much better...Luis was rusty.
 
Mikel, goalscoring legend ;) he played well to be fair.
Luis definately looked off the pace but im sure he'll work at it.

Theres only PSG and Juve i wouldnt want in the first knockout stage. Would like to draw Basel so that we can re-draw that cartoon for them.
 
2-0 is the new 1-0 for José and the boys, so why do I keep betting on us to win 3-0 at home :confused:

The BBC website claims 'Chelsea win amid diving controversy'. Really, like that's the only reason we won.
How about 'Yet another game ruined by Chris Foy'. I thought he had packed in ff's.

I also disagree with BBCs' headline - there was definitely no controversy.
 
I do worry about Cahill though, if there's a weak link in Mourinho's first-choice 11 then it's him. He's been lucky to avoid a red card a few times this season.
 
I can't believe Cahill never made it into Garth Crooks Team of The Week :D

Hazard has mind you with this observation from Mr C, " This lad has been slightly off the boil lately". Laughable.
No wonder JT told Crooks about himself years ago, he knows less than Jamie Redknapp.

More pressing matters for us to deal with are PSG in the Champions League. Winnable, we did them last year.
I hope City pull it of against Barca too.
 
Derby 1 CFC 3.Easy enough but Zouma's injury looked a bit scary,by all accounts he is ok though, as is Drogba.
Bit of a break now until Monday, at Stoke, by which time we will be fed up hearing that City are now level (even top if they give Palace a good hiding) despite the big gap a few weeks ago.
Sunday Tabloids will be full of Jose was wrong to let go of Lampard, Chelsea in diving crisis and Costa ate my Hamster stories ;)
 
Good win tonight :)

Bardsley should probably have had a red but there was give and take all over the pitch...Costa v (everyone) Shawcross, Matic was fucking brilliant and just gets better.

Great game. Hope Hazard is ok.
 
It was a good win. Stoke is a horrible place to go and it is such an achievement to get three points up there.
That's probably because they play Rugby in a Football League.
When they have the ball they kick it as high as they can. When you have the ball they wrestle you to the ground...Rugby!

The only decent footballer they had tonight was Bojan who interestingly José went straight over to talk to when the match had finished :hmm:
 
Nobody wants to go to Stoke on a cold December night apart from Chelsea . Mixed it physically but movement and skill was a class above.
 
Surprisingly non descript performance by West Ham with the exception if their keeper. Thought we looked really balanced with Costa working intelligently and very hard , his turn when he wring footed ghree players was quite superb .
Two away games next in the league .
