Excellent game of football.

Great game.. Hart kept City in it


Johnson and Lucas have improved so much this season

[mecuryball]

Hart did great,that save towards the end saved City's arse.

Worst performance of the season today. Looked tired, but a draw was a good result to maintain our 5 point gap.

We've played Spurs, United and Liverpool away from home now, and got 7 points (and 12 goals)

RIP Gary Speed. Makes you think, doesn't it.

I was just thinking, remember when Chelsea signed Shevchenko? I was ecstatic, I always thought he was an incredible striker. When we signed him I bought a shirt with his name on the back. I think that was the first time I got a named shirt. When he scored against Liverpool in the Community Shield I thought he was going to be on fire for the whole season. How wrong I was lmao.

I just hope Torres doesn't go that way. He has more of a chance to succeed at Chelsea than Shevchenko did in my opinion. Just based on his age and he's a proven striker in the Premiership. Play him AVB, he needs the game time. The squad we fielded against Wolves was probably our most creative side, that's the side Torres needs to be involved with.

I still believe in Torres, but he won't get back to form if he is on the bench and comes on for the last 3 minutes.....

Exactly.

I can't wait for the game tomorrow. I'm 99% sure we'll be playing the kids, but I wonder if Liverpool will be too?

I came back now from a LONG.... LOOOOOOOOOOOOONG Day @university, completely forgotten that Chelsea play today, I remembers now, and LMAO It's like a birthday present!! Wonderful treat... can't wait to knock off some scousers

Lmao I just came back from a ridiculously boring lecture. Chelsea playing today is something I've been looking forward to all day.

^ I was just about to post about our team. Torres and Lukaku starting?! Sounds brilliant! And of course, my main dude Romeu is starting. Get in son!

[Innovation]

A lot of fuss is made about Torres, but what about Carroll? I know it was just a panic buy but £35m? No way, he was just having a good season, far from an established £35m striker.

RIP gary speed,i remember watching him playing along with shearer.

im hoping chelsea win and torres has a blast and scores.

[Devil'sAdvocate]

[Devil'sAdvocate]

[dR3]

We're playing like shit so far, to be honest. Malouda + Torres = disaster duo.
