Chelsea fans, assemble! Big big big game today. Jose has had the backing of the board, as well as 2 weeks of quiet reflection and "tacticing" time to himself, so we need a result to show we at least plan on turning a corner. Apart from courtouis and falcao (lol) the squad is fully fit. Heres to a good performance.
Chelsea XI: Begovic, Ivanovic, Zouma, Terry, Kenedy, Matic, Fabregas, Pedro, Willian, Hazard, Diego Costa. No idea what formation we are playing, glad rahman has been jettisoned...no azpilicueta though.. hmm Also i believe kennedy is having his first premier league start! #Josedoesntlikekids
So long as JT is there I would take a 1-2 and very happy for a 2-2 against the mighty Canaries at the Bridge.
rudy is always pain in the back only against us. Kenedy is impressive. Costa should have bagged hatrick..
Yeah the kennedy trick has worked do far. Get ready for it: We've played alright so far, just need to get a few goals
Costa is having Falcao syndrome? felt like title, that win. huge 6 pointer. If we can string few results 2nd is still possible behind City.
And the title challenge is back on! arsenal and city dropping point today only 14 points to make up on leicester city. Chesea are back in it boys!!!
I do agree. If we can put in some good performance every match, all to play for. When Lester & Manu are 1, 2 - everything is wrong with this league. Could be the proverbial - No body wants the title & everyone wants 4th - season. BUT - tbh 4th spot will be a huge bonus given our disaster.
this is true. Now im just interested in taking this run as far as we can. my desire to develop players like kennedy/rlc/traore remains, as does my desire to see who our weak links are i.e. oscar (sorry ozzie, but you dont give us much any more). If we can salvage a cup, and finish ineurope i'd go as far as to say this season was...somewhat of a success
Travelled over for this one. Encouraging signs....Eden improving his input (wouldn't be hard !), Matic almost back to himself breaking up play and running the midfield (goal of month contender if he had finished off that late dribble), Fab getting confidence back (some good incisive passing, including winner), Kennedy very confident 1st league start (like the look of this fella), Costa well taken goal but is still drifting out of the box too much (noticed a lot of the crowd were beginning to get on his back before the goal). Over all i think the better days are coming soon. Enjoyed the crowd reactions on the way out after the match. A small group started singing (tongue in cheek of course) we're gonna win the league, and straight away hundreds piped up "we are staying up, we are staying up". Roll on Spurs away, after which we should know our real state of play. P.S. Well done to everyone concerned with the Paris tribute.
Indeed, it is most odd I have to say. I doubt it will last though to be honest. Leicester will probably finish 7th or something along those lines, and I'd say 3rd probably for United maybe. Just weird that the title contenders haven't shown up this season. City being mauled at home by the Dippers and Arsenal being hamstrung by Wenger's incompetence as always, in signing no outfield players, plus our well documented meltdown.......Odd, Odd season. Someone like United or Leicester could sneak a title to be honest if it carries on.....can't see it though.
Erm.......which part? That least seasons top 3 clubs have all been pretty dodgy so far this season (us especially ) We have been beyond dreadful, City have looked inconsistent, and Arsenal are struggling with injuries again. So Leicester and United have been able to get the top two positions! Why does that mean I have my head up my arse?
Is it because I said a club like Leicester or United? Hope you don't mean I am lumping your clubs together in terms of stature? That would just be stupid. I just meant because you two are currently in the top two positions
