what i cant figure out is at no point can you see the ball in this shot, what is he trying to kick other than drogba?
He's blatantly kicking Drogba. Although I look forward to Michael's interpretation of events, always good for a laugh.�
HE NEVER PLAYED THE BALL Only the man. He got what he derseved. The most over rated player in the EPL

My interpretation? Well here goes...
Firstly wtf is Drogba up to. He's got no chance of getting ball, and you can see the contact isn't that hard as Drogba's momentum continues upwards.
Nevertheless, I dunno what Evans was thinking, and I agree it looks suspicious. Here's a good point though, jump up in your room as high as you possibly can. Now do it again, except in mid air try to spin 180. Your leg pokes out to land properly.
Eh? What does Ronaldo have to do with it? Or are you comparing Ronaldo and Drogba? I can't work out if you're arguing with me or agreeing with me!
Let it go alright Michael, alright let it go
Arsenal made me do it.
I think that should be the Chelsea ladies are top of the league "as well" before we get any smart arse comments
yea definatly should have put an "as well" in there

KAKUTA is the goods - can see now why they spent so much time signing him...agree the other 2 were ok too, although Wolves had a couple of good chances but there " keeper" had a nightmare. Chechs" big" save was 1st class........looking very strong with several top players out
great win by the lads this morning. whole team played really well. was very impressed with the way players came into the team and fit in to the game plan. alex, belleti in particular.
Yeah Cole's goal and Essien's second were easy saves but he screwed up BIG time. Honestly that was A-League stuff right there.wellyphoenixfan2009-11-22 17:30:02
That Wolves keeper was sh*t. Should have saved two of the goals.

Well Kalou and Mikel will not be missed too much. Essien and Drogba obviously but with the fixture list it shouldn't be too bad.
yes we will definatly miss drogba, kalou, essien and mikel. but as you said, our fixture list aint to bad. we got hull away, sunderland and birmingham at home, then burnley away.
You have the team to win ugly as well as really deal to inferior teams. I think Man Yoo will try and sustai a challenge but will ultimately fail.
I guess your only concern will be the African Nations, but from what i understand you have a pretty friendly fixtre list during that time.
I think you guys will win the league in a canter...
Yeah but no one else was saying that.
Last year Liverpool were saying the same thing.

few changes for tomorrows game vs porto. zhirkov playing at left back, that will be interesting, deco, carvalho and ivanovic back in to the mix

fecken hell it was nearly a week ago, give it up already people
chelsea 1 manU 0, end of. Now arsenal gotta beat chelsea to drag them back to the pack......
By the way, I'm not comparing Torres' attitude to Drogba's. Torres is a different class to that cheat!
Definitely agreeing. Just pointing out what an obnoxious little git Ronaldo was despite his huge talent which is why you can never really love a player like that totally even when he's one of your own. Just in case Man U fans had forgotten!
Ah, I see. Makes sense. Sorry, I'm not at my best at the moment... But that's very true!
Let it go alright Michael, alright let it go

Chelsea chase Brazilian wonderkid Lucas Piazon
Published 23:30 15/11/09 By By Alan Nixon
Chelsea are ready to sign brilliant Brazilian wonder boy Lucas Piazon from Sao Paolo - in a bid to beat their transfer ban.
The Stamford Bridge outfit sent their top men to South America at the weekend in a bid to tie up a move for the skipper of Brazil's under-15 side.
Piazon, an attacking midfielder, scored twice as Brazil thrashed Bolivia 4-0 in a game watched by leading talent spotter Pete de Visser and talks have already begun to bring him to London.
Carlo Ancelotti's ambitious Chelsea want to move fast, tying up the move before any possible enforcement of the FIFA transfer ban that is hanging over their heads.
The tall midfielder, who is like Kaka in style and size, is also known to the other Premier League clubs like Manchester United and Arsenal from his recent displays in the Nike Youth Cup in Manchester.
However Chelsea believe they have won the race for the youngster and will fly him in to complete the deal in the coming weeks.

sounds like a promising kid
guna be a bit of a change of pace getting back into the epl this weekend. got wolves, no excuses here, need the 3 points.
i would like to see joe cole get a start
the chelsea ladies are top of the league. nice
I think that should be the Chelsea ladies are top of the league "as well" before we get any smart arse comments
yea definatly should have put an "as well" in there
Is the game on tonight or did Sky chose Arsenals game?
might have a look-see at that during the ABs game!
Fixed.
great win by the lads this morning. whole team played really well. was very impressed with the way players came into the team and fit in to the game plan. alex, belleti in particular.
midfield worked really well together considering we were without ballack and lamps
good to see joe cole start and score
kakuta definatly looks the goods, very impressive. matic and boroni looked very promising too
Very good win this morning. Considering we had 5 players out it makes it even more impressive. Good to see the young players getting a run and performing well. Anyone reckon Carvalho should of been atleast on the bench?
That Wolves keeper was sh*t. Should have saved two of the goals.

Mhm, it was slippery conditions and all but still regulation stuff.
They needed Paston in goal, he would have organised the defence so the shots wouldn't have been made.
yea huge differnece in the keepers, huge. cech made a simply world class save whilst that hennesy guy was rubbish, at this level, no at any level, essiens and coles should have been saved
defending was rubbish for essiens header too, you just dont leave someone unmarked in the penalty box for a corner, schoolboy stuff.
maloudas goal tho was just lovely, little could be done by the keeper but defenders should have known to close him down a little earlier.
as for why carvalho didnt play, i have this feeling that hes been out of favour since making the two mistakes vs aston villa. i thought alex was good tho. still finds himself in tricky situations but seems to get out of them

one other thing i noticed was how flat we looked up front without drogba, all the goals and shots coming from midfield. not saying anelka and kalou arent good, we just lack an outlet when we dont play drogba. Downey262009-11-23 10:45:33

if any of our players are in the final (which i expect, as i think ivory coast will win) they may be a bit tired for our home game vs arsenal on 6th feb. i believe the african nations final is on 31st jan

Agreed, will be very surprised if Chelsea don't win this year.
Last year Liverpool were saying the same thing.
liverpool were saying they would win the title? or we would?
They would. The year before that you were.
If chelsea beat arsenal at the emirates this weekend i will put a tenner on them winning the title!
Any Takers?

yea the arsenal game will be huge, if we can win that we will be 11 clear of them, though they hav a game in hand but still, gota win that game in hand
few changes for tomorrows game vs porto. zhirkov playing at left back, that will be interesting, deco, carvalho and ivanovic back in to the mix
we win and we wrap up first spot in the group with a game to play
terry playing his 300th game as captain. huge

LOVING THIS zhirkov is quality and i love deco
Also if we concede a goal it will be our 100th away goal conceded in European competition.
starting to look forward to the game this weekend now. Will be epic!
although our injuries are mounting up big time =
this fixture always results in lots of forum tension between us sets of fans, hopefully we can all play nice this time around
