Great goal by Sinclair, Cech should have got to it though. Respect to Sinclair for not celebrating against his former club.

If anything we needed to go 1-0 down to inject some life and flair into our play. We've been mediocre at best.

I can't stand watching Chelsea play like this it's frustrating to say the least. AVB NEEDED to spend money on a winger or a playmaker but decided not to. What's this thing he has with Boswinga? Leave Cahill on the bench instead of dropping Ivanovic to RB? Stupid.

I'll stick by AVB until he's no longer our manager, but why he hasn't made the moves we need is beyond me.

We got so lucky.

We were complete and utter shit in the first half. Torres was getting no service whatsoever. There was no pace to our game and pretty much zero creativity. The second half was an improvement, but not by much.

Sort it out AVB. I accept it's a transitional period, but some of these performances have been awful.

Just goes to show how much we needed to sign a few players.

United wins, City Lost (=

Thank you Gibbo

[mecuryball]

That was a nice strike from Gibbo to bury the bitters ....he still has that United blood running through his veins..

And a perfect result for us against Stoke...nice to see the Berb & Chica amongs the goals again.

I don't get what club he's at, he's Chelsea through and through!



If Roman sacked AVB, approached Jose and they cleared the air, I reckon he'd come back to Chelsea in a heartbeat. It's a shame they had to fallout.

I still remember when my mate told me the news at school he was sacked, I couldn't believe it.

This is getting embarrassing. It's really painful watching us play, seems like we're sinking deeper and deeper into misery.

First half - totally desperate and pathetic. I know these are pretty strong words, but they fully describe the situation. Second half - minor improvements here and there (the pressing was the most noticeable one), but still not enough. Lucky equalizer, that "cross" from Bosingwa was going nowhere.

We didn't deserve the point at all, props to Rogers for totally outplaying AVB on the tactical plan.

Luiz looks like the only player who is trying for this team to succeed, I can't believe how uninterested the rest of the guys are. And I can't figure out why in the world does fucking Meireles get so much game time when he's been utter shit for the last few months. Same goes for Bosingwa.

The last time we played really well was against City. Ah well, I'm sure next season will be a huge improvement once AVB gets his own squad in. I have faith in him, but this season has been shocking for the most part. Funny thing to note though, aren't we currently better off in regards to points than we were this time last season? Lol.

City have lost their way.

We need Yaya Toure so much.

[gvdz]

City have lost their way.

We need David Pizarro so much.

[cityfan31]

on the bright side, Chelsea remain the only English side undefeated in 2012

[mecuryball]

City have lost their way.

City still have the advantage,because of their relatively easy fixtures during the month.if we are still within 3-5 points of City after our next 4 PL fixtures...
Chelsea (A)
Liverpool (H)
Norwich City (A)
Tottenham Hotspur (A)
then I think we'll win the League.

Haha that's awesome. Pretty impressive ball control from the little fella.
