    ...according to Pelligrini.
    Likening Chelsea to us...bloody cheek.

    We hammered Chelsea at the real Wembley in '72.

    Chelsea have NEVER had a player like Alan Hudson......er hang on :emotic:emoticon-0108-speecon-0108-speec

    Not that small, Crouch is 7ft tall, closely followed by Shawcross, N'Zonzi, Begovic and Huth!

    Hi Just copied this. I thought it was quote of the week. We are being compared to Chelsea. Massive complement!

    Pellegrini likened Chelsea's style to that of Stoke's, who beat the Premier League champions 1-0 at the Etihad in August.

    "I think we played against exactly the same team we played against Stoke here," he added. "It was very difficult for us to score but finally we did. The result is not what both teams did during 90 minutes.

    I love that we're a small team. I love that we have owners and a manager from the UK. I also love that the majority of Stoke fans have strong ties to the city and that we're not attractive to journeymen fans.
    Pellegrini may have called us a small team as an insult, I choose to take it as a compliment to how far we've come.
