I’m a bit busy today. But there has to be some blog right? That’s why I have started typing without even know what exactly to say. So I’ll say the easiest things. We gotta win. Rivals gotta lose. Coming back from a historic demolition of Liverpool at Anfield, we must be running high on confidence, morale and the related stuff. Playing Bolton at home is a relief.
I think Hiddink has restored the home-away normalcy. Normally in football, you have teams performing better at home than away. That was the case with Chelsea until Scolari stepped in. There was a period when I started dreading home matches and wondering why we can’t play all matches away. That feeling is gone. Now, with Chelsea playing so confidently and buoyantly, playing at home would only make things better. At Anfield, Chelsea showed an absolute disregard for the Anfield support. That’s after Torres sent them to dizzying heights after that early goal. This Chelsea team has more focus. All that they care about is what they need to do on the pitch. They seem less concerned about other stuff.
Bolton would pack their defence and would wait for their set piece opportunities to nick a goal. Hiddink’s Chelsea has seen such challenges at home already and have already come out successful. Bolton should not be too much of a worry. The only concern for Hiddink must be the team selection for this match ahead of the second leg of the champions league quarterfinals on Tuesday. He can rest a few players, play Carvalho, Mancienne, Di Santo, Deco, Mikel and the like. If you think we have won the tie against Liverpool, that could be a naive thought. Football can teach you cruel lessons when you take it lightly.
That’s all I can write for now. Here is for a 3-0 win for Chelsea.



—————–Cech,———————-
Ivanovic, Terry, Carvalho, Ashley Cole
——Ballack,—-Lampard,—-Essien———
——–Kalou,–Drogba,–Malouda————
SUB:Hilario,Mikel,Quaresma,Anelka,Alex,Mancinne.
Absolutely spot on BC, no room for complacency,naivity, u never know when u get beaten,110 percent focus from now on. I dont know if we should play drogba or not, its a headache. IF we need to win somthing, we need a fully fit and deadly drogba for rest of the season, but with the current form he is in, how can u rest him ? I am sure Guss will do the right thing. Terry will def start as hes not gonna play on tuesday, so as ashley cole, thanks to LFS, getting rid of bridge, we cant even rest ashley. I think malouda needs to start, he had a good game at anfield, and he plays well wen he is confident. so i guess most probably, it will be a usual, 4-3-3 with mikel,essien and lampard. resting ballack. he cant play today and tuesday for 90 mins, it could be a big ask from him. Come on guys get ur team in and lets have bit of banter.
After the Liverpool game, this game is exactly what we needed. Three points must be taken without any fuss and we should rest a few key players such as Ballack because as CFC said rightly, he might not be able to handle full 90 minutes today and on Tuesday. Mikel should be played instead of Essien, let him get good rest after a mindblowing performance at Anfield. He shall return on Tuesday to track Gerrard again. Heres my team for todays game:
———————————–Cech———————————-
—Ivanovic————Alex———-Terry——————-A.Cole–
——————————Mikel—————————————
———————Deco——————Lampard——————–
–Quaresma———————————————-Malouda—–
—————————–Anelka————————————–
Subsitutes: Hilario
Mancienne
Carvalho
Kalou
Ballack
Drogba
Di Santo
Good squad. No fuss. three-points. Probably 2-0 or 3-0.
KTBFFH!
4-2-3-1
Cech; Ivanovic, Carvalho, Terry, A Cole; Mikel, Deco; Quaresma, Lampard, Malouda; Anelka
Subs: Hilario, Belletti, Alex, Essien, Ballack, Kalou, Drogba
I think it’s time to give Stoch and Di Santo a start in the line-up. Let Deco show he’s worthy of a CFC shirt. Rest Essien for the Liverpool game. Belletti is really hungry to play a good game.
—————CECH————–
IVANOVIC–BELLETTI–TERRY–A COLE
DI SANTO–DECO—LAMPARD–MALOUDA
——–STOCH——-KALOU——–
SUBS: HILARIO,CARVALHO,MIKEL,BALLACK
QUARESMA, ANELKA,DROGBA
champs league is important lamps essien and drog need to be rested so play anelka deco and mikel today
When was the last time belletti was hungry? well the best thing we can use him is as a supersub.
As much as Guus wants to drop drogba he knows he is on a roll. hope he lets anelka play and have drogba on the bench incase we need a goa=). Bolton wont be easy. they are a touch team. I care more of havint every one fresh for the CL-clash then anything else. ofcourse we should win but the only two competition we should put more effort in is CL and FA.
Having said that, even wit our second unit we should be able to get a great result agains midtable teams. I hope Michael M. and stochs get the nod to play today.
am goin for a 2-0 win
I would give rest to Alex, as he is to play on Tuesday. Terry is ineligible because of cards and Carvalho could get back to form in this match, ahead of Pool match. I am also sure Mikel will play; we need a DM with good aerial ability against Bolton.
Bosingwa should play. I don´t have a particular sympathy for him, but he can do wonders as a false winger and that is what we will need as hell if Bolton parks the bus in front of their goal. Which is exactly what they are going to do, I am sure about that. Brana was great on Wednesday, but he could be given a rest ahead of Tuesday match where his defensive qualities will be needed much more.
I am also sure Quaresma will be given a chance. Pity he is not eligible in this match; however his tricks and tactical ability could do much in this match. On the other hand, Kalou is rather a counter-attack player – which is not what we need against Bolton at all.
The only think I am not sure about is Ballack. He could do well against Bolton as well, but he is still old and needs to stay fresh for Tuesday match. I would also give rest to Drogs; Anelka can do well against Bolton, in the last match against them he scored yet in the 9th minute.
So I would put this starting 11:
Cech – Bosingwa, Carvalho, Terry, A Cole – Mikel – Quaresma, Deco (Ballack), Lamps, Malouda – Anelka
If there is a problem, lets bring Drogs. If we are in front by 2 or more, lets give chance to Stoch, Sinclair or so. Lets go Blues!!!
I agree with 5|Danablue.I want the young players to start, of course we could get 2-0 up then take of the pro s for the young guys.
I want Quaresma and Deco to start with a 4-1-2-2-1
chers 3-0
ps what time does the maych start
this is a must win game so its very important that chelsea put out a strong team. Liverpool wont be as easy in the second leg, we have a big advantage but the fact is we need a strong side to keep them on their toes.
——————-cech———————

q.resma———deco————anelka

SUBS: Hilario, belletti, stoch, di santo, mancienne, lampard, malouda
Maybe even rest a.cole with ferriera. Hell if it was up to me id throw q.resma down the left, stoch down the right, di santo and anelka up front. Deco+mikel in the middle of the park. Mancienne for ivanovic or alex.
I cant belive, looseerpool is winning 2 nil up,, wat on earth ws big sam thinkin playing chris samba playing upfront ??? i know he can be used as a stiker for 10 min or so if desperate, having, benny Mac, on bench, og god………….
what a lovly goal by ballack, plays out wide to kalou, continue his run and then slots the ball past the keeper, brilliant,,, bolton hav parked their bus,wid 9 men behnd the ball an elmander jus upfront,, its attack attack attack from chelsa, and clear clear clear from bolton,,,
If a collapse is to be its better today that on Tuesday
That was too close for comfort. 70 minutes of brilliance, then wtf happened? Cech was not very convincing today.
seriously wat da F happnd….
cech was once da most feared keeper in da world… i think he needs some1 like jose to bring back his confidence…
what was the score???? plaese reply
Way too close guys… where was the ability to just shut the game down?
a wake up call for chelsea. cant let liverpool do this on tuesday.
HOLY SHIT, now that was just too close for comfort, conceding 3 goals?? From Bolton?? This has to serve as a wake up call, we lost the nerve completely in this match. Just shows the impact Lamps and Drogba have on a game but at the same time Im glad this happened because this will serve as a warning to our players, we can’t let our guard down just because were 4-0 up we have to keep tight and see the game off till the final whistle. Chelsea simply lost the plot to be honest, but then again Bolton do have a habit of pissing us off at Stamford Bridge. Liverpool must be watching this and Rafa must be noting down our weaknesses, in a way we have fueled Liverpool for next week, if there was a doubt in their head before then after watching this game Im sure there brimming with confidence. One thing is for sure, not having Lamps, Drogba and Essien on the feild does make a big difference. Cech needs to fix up look sharp because Terry wont be there next week so we need to keep things tight, score against Liverpool and then just close the game down effectively. I just hope our players learned a lesson from this match, man the nerves are still shaky I just cant beleive what I just saw. Step It Up Blues, Step It Up!!
Yea we have definatly lost a great deal of our confidence, but liverpool need to beat us by three to advance. I just dont see us losing by three.
we really outplayed bolton and were leading 4-0. and in the end of the game they were just a deflection from going home wit a 4-4 draw from SB.
I say this show what can happen in football.
@Jaz, ur right now we know what happens if we dont bring our A-game.
I still blame Cech for this one, had he saved the ball when they scored their first which he need to do, they woudnt have got any kind of energi to pour forward.
we got 3 points, lampsy dd and ballack scoring which is always good. and we know we will have Mr essien playing.
so am really confedent, but I wont relax till we are through thought, specially after a game like this one!
70 minutes of brilliance. 20 minues of Shit!!
we relaxed a bit switched off after 70 min importance of lamps drog and essien is crucial and this deco should not play anymore
guus hiddink will remind this to the players about this and will make sure we dont relax at all
it is good it happened today not tuesday guys be careful keep our feet grounded and try to scoe goals and be better defensively
Now liverpool know how to score 3 goal at SB.With this performance,lossing 3:0 at Sb is possible.I have bad feeling about Tuesday game,why this shit must happen in this week?
Almost blown it…
1 0 is far better than this..just shows what an importent player Lampard is… I just cannot believe what happened there…Cech was poor…
This why jose says when we were two nil up…enough..shut the game..

Sent on a phone using T9space.com
guys relax lightning does not strike twice at same place guus hiddink is there there lamps and drog will play full game essien in midfield we will score as well it will good match
we will be in semis no doubt
yea i am positive about chelsea goin into semis
liverpool jus not gud enuff
guys please dont get over confident about the liverpool game. You never know what will happen, if bolton can score 3 at SB then liverpool can.
Please just be optimistic but not too cocky.
KTBFFH
Chelsea 1-1 liverpool
i couldn´t watch the match as i had to work today. 4-3 ? wtf and i hear you guys say it could have been 4-4? was it really that bad?
Anyway, it surely woke up our players and i´m happy that they got their lesson. They´ll remain focused in game against liverpool now. Need to score 4 more against them to stay safe ;).
How to get 10 years older in 10 minutes. I am still a bit shaking when thinking about the last 10 minutes…
Anyway better than to get that slap on Tuesday. Hope this will serve as a wake-up call for the whole team and show Guus that without Lamps, Drogba and Essien at the same time it is not possible to hold control of the game. Ballack could have been that person a few years ago, but now he is not able to hold the ball against 2 players, turn around, run 30 metres, then pass or shoot and run back. So he needs Lamps to combine with and get space for his precise passes. Deco is useless, Mikel is a bit shaky mentally and Anelka cannot play without midfield support, as Drogs can. Lesson learned for Guus, I hope.

Anyway, if Rafa saw this match, he could put three attackers on the pitch on Tuesday – Torres, Carragher and Skrtel – and just let Reina do goal kicks to our box :))
Replying to IwasMissingJose:
the 4-3 result dont really show the whole picture, they did start really well, bolton that is. but from 5th min till 70th we were schooling them. it got to a point were it was really ugly for bolton. but as soon as the subs were done and cech made a mistake and gifted them the first goal they started to get energi and deco and co. started to play nonchalant. then the second goal came. and it got worst the third, all this in a nine min span (between 68 -78 minutes). last 10 min of the game we got atleast one great chance to kill of their comeback. Malouda was all by himself wit the keeper but he tried to shoot through the keeper. Cech got really shaky in the end. everybody looked cluless. in the end it looked like the way it did when LFS was in charge.
but I have to say it was probably one of the best games, as long DD and lampsy were on the pitch.
on the clash wit the scousers, well there is a risk they will score on us. thats fo shoo. BUT WE WILL also get a chance to score on them.
cant wait …come on chelsea
WHat happened? u guys wanna know what happened? The changes where Deco came in…thats where it all started…everyone lost concentration. Midfield became shaky, ballack lost his rhythm bcoz already used to play along with lampard and essien. I understand why Hiddink put deco in as a subs, but that is the risk thst Chelsea have to face. Hopefully deco wont be playing against Liverpool, coz if he is, we all wont be able to see fast free flowing football from Chelsea. Again, I think yesterday, Drogba is hunger for goals and he is aiming for a hatrick, but Hiddnk sub him. Can see Drogba’s face like it is not enough for him…he is still hunger for goals. Bolton is a team that always wants to prove something, and Chelsea shouldnt be happy with a 4-0 lead. Hiddink made changes to show that, like, ok…we can put underperformed player like deco in, coz’ we were leading 4 goals… but Bolton, know that is the time to exploit and luckily, we didnt get a draw.
@32 spot on, 10 years older, man, it will give anyone a hear attack,,,,,,,,, was watching the game untill 68th minute when we subbed lamps and dd, i thot, its all done and dusted, just nipped down to get a cup of tea and its 4-1, 3 mins on 4-2, 3 mins on 4-3, and it could have been 4-4 , pure complacency, players jus switched offf, and its disaaaasterrr. shambolic defence, i would have given everyone a 10 out 10 untill then, but forget 10 they are gonna get a 1 for this calamity,,,,,,,,,,,,,, wake up call. You can tell, even though GUSS wasnt too bothered about it in the post match interview, he was furioussssssssssss. what on earth was petr chech doing ?
Chelsea must learn many things from this game.And i dont wana see deco anymore and i think guss had know this.Guss is a very intelligent man and i believe this will not happen anymore in his chelsea Carreer.

Thanks Kuhulai for the report. this all signals that Deco isn´t a Chelsea material, and in fact spoils our game. Poor lamsy has to play each and every game.

and today my special column today for john terry “the traitor”
I´am really angry with this guy for his press column today. He is our star, our legend, but he proved today that he was really involved in the sacking of Jose Mourinho. and now he´s afraid that Jose would come back. Terry the traitor.
When asked about if he´d welcome the return of Jose, his answer was no. He knows that Guus cannot stay beyond the season, and even GUus has said it time to time. Even i wish Guus would stay beyond the season. But like he said, he can´t. Fullstop. I would simply hate to see Carlo Ancelloti in chesea seat.
And he was talking about stability, he said we need to be stable and need a manager who can do that. How many of you guys think Ancelloti is going to bring stability in Chelsea, another LFS fired in mid season is not what i want to see in Chelsea.
At this crucial time when its actually possible to persuade Jose to take that hot seat, i find such and irresponsible comment from Captain is hilarious. Anyway what do you feel guys?
I am for if no Hiddink, bring back Jose.
and once again my boooo for Terry the traitor.
Replying to IwasMissingJose:
actually terry is intelligent we all want jose to come back infact terry wants him too
but its not goin to happen there is a BIG problem between jose and roman
thats y he is talking about hiddink and this stability stuff
he s not goin to shout here and there “i want jose back i want jose back”
I got the same feeling as you IwasMissingJose, that JT aint keen on JM. But if I would was to pick I would pick Guus any day of the week. there are so many obsticles wit for JM to return at this moment. plus lets not live in the past and look to the future.
JM will always be TSO among chelseas fans and some of the players but I hope we win the CL so RA can makes Guus stay.
JM have this wish of winning the La liga also, means he would rather go to Madrid in the summer then come here. But stranger things have happened. I dont think its only a fraktion between the boss and JM that got him sacked, am sure the board did a great part in that as well. and the fact that we didnt actually win the EPL or CL 2007. JM set a hight standard for the club and even he couldnt keep wit that, for what ever reason.
NOW I really hope that AC Milan does superb and qualifies for the CL next season and they play wonderful footie, that way maybe Milan decide to keep him (anchelotti) and we dont have to go through another scolarish season=)
dont be scared. the players know all this and so does hiddink. we have to keep a tight defence and we will manage to do so. the problem against bolton was that when lampard and drogba got off, this sended a massage to the team that we are good for this game and we have allready won it. the team witched off and cech made mistakes as did the defence and we conceded goals. no worry chelsea is tough no way we will react this way on tuesday.
C’mon Chelsea
Replying to IwasMissingJose:
cant belive u like jose more than terry. fvck jose, when leaving chelsea he started talking shit about players and the team. terry would never do that. he is chelsea.
Replying to bluefan #1:
Ranieri made Terry our Captain, Jose made Terry our legend! So TSO has a higher place for me. Ever since Jose left, terry has never been his best and its easy to answer why.
terry is still the best defender and captain in the world. u dont even know what he does in outside of the field. he runs the team. u think any other club in the world could change 5 managers and still be one of the greatest teams in the world if it wasnt for the charecters of some players, like lampard, drogba etc and specially terry. i would give him up for the world. i rather hace chelsea loosing roman than terry. u have to chow respect for our captain no mather what even if u are “in love” with jose. terry was born a leader and ranieri saw that who cares who gived him a chanse of being captain. jose made chelsea winners but terry was born one. respect him!
I duly respect Terry as a great footballer, and i agree there are very few who can match his pedigree. But still i hate him for the role he played in TSO´s sacking. Its some sort of like Judas betraying Christ when he needed one. And i hate him for doing that twice now. I feel now he gets paid for doing that. Otherwise look, when all the other players were campaiging for the return of TSO(IN CASE HIDDINK WON´T STAY), why would he have to go to press and speak that way, which smelt like someone from board speaking with that stinking feeling of hatred towards TSO? If TSO doesn´t come back, i feel Chelsea will crumble once again.
We can defeat Liverpool on Tuesday no doubt.All we have to do is to play Mancienne–Carvalho—Ivanovic—A.Cole.
I don’t like Alex as a CB must confess.He’s one of the best but is mistake-prone.Mancienne needs to get games.He proved his
worth in the Juventus match.He is our chelsea Carvalho(he can dribble out of defence and is chelsea’s finest).
He along with Jack Cork would drive our chelsea future defence.
Anyway guys this has become something, that at Chelsea, I don’t understand.Why is it that Chelsea never cares to blood
its youngsters.Look at Man Utd giving chance to Macheda,Evans,Welbeck.Liverpool–Ngo’g,Insua,Pacheco.
Why Chelsea?We have some of the best youngsters in the World.I doubt Messi would be who is, if he was in Chelsea.
In our team we’ve gotten Di Santo, one with a massive potential who can be world class but would it be in a team like
Chelsea in which he would have limited chances?I hear we are going for David Villa which means Anelka,Drogs,VIlla ahead of
him.This is ridiculous.
Kakuta, France’s finest.This guy is the best I’ve seen in my life he’s just too good for a 17yr old soo better than some vaunted
Walcott,Macheda and likes.But would chelsea offer him the chance to be Player of The Year in 3-4 years to come?A big question.
Sinclair,Stoch,Mancienne,Bertrand,Woods,Sawyer,Bruma and likes need to be introduced.They are our future.I doubt whether
Sahar would be given that opportunity after a fantastic loan with 5 goals so far.Give them the Chance oh chelsea pls.
What do ya think and don’t tell me, their chance will come,Messi came to prominence as a 17 year old.
Replying to IwasMissingJose:
u dont know anything about joses sacking so dont blame terry. and he was asked about jose back at chelsea and he told the press what he felt like. why the hell should he lie cause other players want jose back. i rather have guus hiddink as manager at chelsea to. and i honestly dont think brining back jose would do any good. atleast not now.
Nobody is talking about now, its about when Guus leaves after serving his term.

You don’t know what you’re talking about. You have no idea what happened behind closed doors, Terry can’t be to blame for Mourinho’s departure. Terry is the heart and soul of this Chelsea team along with Lampard, how can any Chelsea supporter say they hate Terry? Mourinho is gone now, and is waiting to take over at Man Utd probably, you need to get over Mourinho. I loved him too, now he is the Inter manager, and Hiddink is our boss. Why dwell on managers of the past? We have the Golden Guus, he is perfect for this club. I love having Hiddink as our manager, and I really hope he is somehow persuaded to extend his stay with us. All the players are rallying around him and publicly saying that he must stay, and Chelsea are winning. Forget Jose already, he’s in the past.

Reply to IwasMissingJose,
I used to love JM, but especially after he talked a lot in favour of Manure, i don’t like JM. He is a politician; it was his ego that took him prematurely away from us. He said he would return to Chelsea, but if he gets a seat at something like Manure or Loserpool, he will forget us, i am sure!
About his departure: I would blame Roman partly for this, but i shall never forget that it was his bulky wallet that fetched us recent glory. JM was a coward because he knew that Chelsea wouldn’t perform well and he left early in the start of a season. On the contrary, AG did well, he took us till the UEFA final, he also kept Chelsea on run for EPL until that ill fated goal from heskey! Jose was timid fearing that he might not be able to have a Chelsea he had previously and thus left us. But we did well and had he continued to be with us, we would have lifted both EPL and UEFA CL cups. Also, we shouldn’t forget that JM actually succeeded on the helluva groundwork and longterm planning done by Claudio Ranieri… most of us forgot CR and hailed JM while in fact it was CR who actually did the groundbreaking and foundation laying for Chelsea’s glory. JM would never have brought Petr Cech at SB, it would have been so nice had CR continued with us. With Roman’s money, even i can manage and glorify Chelsea like JM!
him and Terry?: And now you are comparing JM (a mere interim blue) with Terry (his blood is blue, literally). Terry is our own child, he does well for us, he always did! He is more than a captain, he is the manager! I am sure you have missed upon the moments when he would literally throw himself at every little chance when we are trailing our opponents. He would take a boot in his face, but would not go to the ground….i have never seen a fighting spirit truer than his in any sportsman! I don’t want to talk about that “i sink” man…he is a mere history, just a coincidence that he happened to be with us while we got a huge financial back up. Ranieri could have done equally good with Roman’s money, if not better than him! I have never found so easy to hate a person as deeply as you have loved him few months back. I HATE JOSE MOURINHO! TSO? The Shameless Oaf! But on a lighter note, whoever manages us presently, in 5/6 years’ time it would be so lovely to see our own hero John Terry at the helm. JT is our living legend, JM, the forgotten wanker! He was favoured vastly by Roman’s influx of huge cash, as simple as that! And how ironic it is that he left us because he couldn’t stand against the man whose money painted his CV as world class! He really is The Shameless Oaf, where is his gratitude?!
Whatsoever, Chelsea is the best and will remain so! I hope Zola will come to us soon although he said he would like to remain with marshmen because he is thankful to them for having given him a chance. That is the way a gentleman should be, never forgetting the one who favoured you! JM is a “sinking man”, as he always say “i sink”…i am sure his ego will not bring him back to us, and we wouldn’t mind. Better off with him…f**k him, i can go pages talking about him! Not because he didn’t do us good, but because he is talking sweetly about our arch rivals. And IwasMissingJose, didn’t you see him talking affectionately about Manure and their pimp manager? Do you only see Terry talking about him? Are you really a Chelsea fan? In your fanship defined more by a person who did well somehow than by a priceless hero who gives out his heart and soul to please us? Have you not read Terry’s apologetic letter he had sent to us all over the world after his spot kick miss in Russia? And if you have read it (by chance), had it not brought tears to your eyes because most of us still feel that we lost it because of Drogba (with due respect to our super hero) and not because of Terry who was brave enough to take that decisive penalty? Have you not cried along with him, and have you not noticed that his tears were for us? i have loads of such questions but i would rather leave you to ponder about egoistic TSO! than feast on the ambrosia of JT’s special moments (COUNTLESS) with us!
One last point, you are the real Judas who betrayed the Lord! But i am sure everything that you touch would turn into holy shit!!!
I shall KTBFFH!!!
I am so sorry BC, if I had gone little too far than I am supposed to, but I cannot stand someone, claiming to be a Trueblue, going against our own Terry, that too in the light of a mere past figure like TSO!!!
Whether you like it or not, the fact remains that Jose abandoned us when we needed him the most: Sitting third in the CL group stages and a huge game VS United at Old Trafford. He said that there were only two ways he way leaving Chelsea; seeing out his contract and getting fired. Look what happened. Let’s face it; his loyalties lie to nobody but himself.
Replying to KarmaCW:
I respect your point of view. But i´ve found few flaws in your point of view.
Jose spoke in favour of manures in those matches which had nothing to do with Chelsea. Infact he´s tried hard his best to motivate our players. despite being an Inter manager. You surely heard Tiago tell how JM used to motivate his players to turn things around. and he did the same although being an inter manager, by intimidating them, and making them feel the heat, and that making them known that he´s still watching them. For the whole world it may seem as if he´s against chelsea, but chelsea players know his way and use it positively. And therefore he is still in contact with so many Chelsea players and motivating them to improve and hold on in difficult times.
And the other point that was flawed is regarding JT himself. Lets suppose he has string of bad perfomances and suddenly he is not a chelsea material, and Man city offer him a contract, he goes, and what would you do? hate him that he´s no more a chelsea player? Same applies with jose. Its their job, like job you have and i have. If we are fired from our job, what do we do? find new one isn´t it? Even if he becomes a Manure boss someday, i´ll appreciate him as a person, although i may hate his club. aND i feel nothing wrong when he talks high of SAF, coz he´s talking about a person, a colleague, a contemporary. Noone likes to stay jobless, but i would have hated him when he´d have chosen Manure, even though chelsea place was available. But i´m sure under these circumstances, he´d have chosen chelsea. because he still loves chelsea, and everyone that loved chelsea, will love it forever.
Replying to True Blue in L.A.:
and i love Guus as Chelsea manager, and in my list he´s no. 1 as well. In fact i was one of his staunch supporter when most of you said “no, not again another country coach”.
I repeat again, i´m talking about after he leaves at the end of this season. Because he will not stay. All these goddamn great managers are goddamn egoistic, and they will do what they say. Thats why jose left and thats why hiddink would leave. SO think about it rationally.
Replying to IwasMissingJose:
The only reason why I was so infuriated was because you could use the word “hate” along with John Terry! As a Chelsea fan, that would be the last word to associate with him.
Thank you for pointing out the so-called flaws, and only two!
And before I move on, for a fan, the present is more precious than the past! JT is our serving hero, JM had served his time with us. And I don’t find any concrete reason behind this statement of yours: “But still i hate him for the role he played in TSO´s sacking.” Prove it!
Now what point are you raising: JM at Inter indirectly motivating Chelsea players to perform well? I have never seen or heard anything like this, not even in my wildest dreams! And even by chance if he does it, then he is being unfair to Inter who pays him. A very good bloke won’t do injustice to the one who pays him, pays for his belly! But I really appreciate that you are able to credit our success to someone who is away than to those who are with our team day in day out! A real Chelsea fan you seem to be! Please recollect this statement: “Players/managers may come and players/managers may go, but Chelsea will remain”. And I surely live by this adage!
To prove it, let me quote you:
“Lets suppose he has string of bad perfomances and suddenly he is not a chelsea material, and Man city offer him a contract, he goes, and what would you do? hate him that he´s no more a chelsea player?”
Firstly, Terry won’t perform badly for a long time. But supposing he does, as you say, then I would still love him because everyone has their on and off days. Mancs offer him a contract, but have you not read his reply to that? I guess, or rather I am sure, you didn’t care for it! And again, supposing that he leaves us, then I wouldn’t love him, but I would not hate him at all. I love all who are associated with us, but once they are away from us, it is really difficult to adore or love them with same intensity and sincerity. Actually, I don’t hate JM, but when I knew that you are able to hate someone who is presently one of our best players, I don’t find it difficult to hate or not like the one who is already our past. I have said I hate JM because I know you love him and I want to defend my JT against the person who can hate him for no valid reason! I want the word “hate” to pierce your heart as much as it did to mine when you used it with our super hero!
JM must have a job, like you and me, because we have to earn our living. And I won;’t care where he gets his earning from, but if he still admires us – as you claim he surely does – then why would he go on air praising about granny-like AF? He knows our history vis-à-vis Manure, and if he cares an iota about our sentiments, then he wouldn’t surely praise Manure and their associates knowing that Blues like us will read and hear about it. How nice would it be, if he rather publicly announce his desire to come back to us, knowing the fact that GH won’t stay beyond this summer? He cannot do this because of his ego and wouldn’t want to bow down at Roman, the person whose money polished his CV! But he can simply and easily talk at length about Manure despite the fact that AF doesn’t want to leave his post for few more years. Isn’t this frustrating since you really wish him to come back to us as much as I do? If he want to talk high of “a person, a colleague, a contemporary”, does it really have to be AF? Is this man the only person worth his appreciation? Why can’t he talk about Guus Hiddink? Why can’t he talk about Zola or Ray Wilkins? WHY? Since you are the die-hard fan of him, I think you can satisfy me with a very good reason to prove why. I doubt his love for us, you see extraordinary things, surreal things…you have a 20-20 eyesight! Keep it up! As for me I will keep my blue flag flying high, and higher up!
Replying to KarmaCW:
I don´t have to answer long to your question.
“why was he praising about SAF?”
well simply because press linked him up for OT job. They said and even Ferguson said he could be a possible substitute. And he denied it humbly saying that “it would be an honour, but i think SAF would still boss manures for next 20 years.” The problem was he was asked more than 20 times in a span of a month and he answered the same thing differently. Thats a good way to say no and no and no.
And you´re asking me to prove it, but i can ask you the same, prove me wrong. We both are helpless at this situation. But when JM left, there was inside news that JM had bad words with JT regarding his performance against Burnley, and JT met with the board the next day, and guess what TSO left. JM didn´t even look at JT´s face when he left was what his colleagues said. And now that unnecessary press column, focusing only on JM, surely points out what i´ve been claiming.
JM has more than once said he still loves chelsea and regards players of his era as his sons. He´s in a 3 year contract at inter. and he can´t openly say i´ll be back to chelsea. What if RA appoints Ancelloti, what would jose have to do then. would be wise to kick at one´s own career? guess what he´d be fired from inter and this may infact doom his managerial career.
You truely believe paying big makes club successful. And i don+t have to go far to prove that wrong. See Man city. Or we can look at our own club, see lfs era, he inherited the same players, got infact deco and bosingwa, but how did we perform? are you so confident you could have managed chelsea well?
I have very high regard for JT as a sportsman, but i still hate him for all his immoral doings. I´d infact forgiven him. But when he turned against TSO again yesterday i am infuriated again. He played part in inflicting instability in Chelsea, and he´s responsible of chelsea´s poor form recently.
thats until hiddink came.
Replying to IwasMissingJose:
Thank you for the elaboration, but i still wonder how you could hate Terry after i take you for a true Chelsea fan.
If JM comes back to us, it would surely be nice, as i have said earlier, but it seems less likely that he will. His ego will come in between! But i am sure that Terry won’t leave us at any cost, thus showing that if we at all can hate one of the two, whom to choose! Don’t make a wrong choice because it would hurt you to see Terry with us all the way! He was born blue like someone rightly pointed out! He went only to Nottingham Forest, that too to get a regular football matches. Every young player goes out on loan to lower division clubs, we know JT from old days unlike JM. A club is determined more by its present form, not the past or future.
John Terry is godsend, anyone who can dare to denounce him knows what s/he really is!
Chelsea is the best!

It’ll be the funniest (result for this discussion) if JT left for man city and JM was given the chelsea post and rejected it..!
we have to forget the past NOW. JT is focusing on the future and would want some consistencies at the helm of our affairs. He must continue to EMPHASIZE on GH staying rather than dwelling on JM coming back. i can imagine if he spoke of a wish to have JM back, it will be another controversy for the press to feed on and destablize our team ethics which was capitalised on during similar comments prior to LFS leaving. no doubt JM gave Chelsea the world class status we have now, but we have to move on.
we have JT now and his blood is still (and always) BLUE and in fact his blood is the bluest.
looking towards tomorrow, JT will not be playing and he probably deserves some rest too.
KTBFFH no matter what!
Replying to bluefanforever:
Yeah, funniest but the last thing ever to happen at Chelsea! KTBFFH!
Replying to bluefanforever:
lol!
Replying to bluefanforever: lol
JM is a very clever person. He have created this hype about him to the extend the every mf is buying it=)
It’s easy to sit here and blame JT or the board of JM´s sacking but the fact is we don’t really know. JM´s ego got too big for the club and that everything was about him. That was too much to take for some I guess. Recently he went out and said that his biggest mistake he have done so far in his career was not to leave Chelsea after the 2007 season for one of the biggest clubs in the world that had given him an offer. He said the only reason he stayed was due to the fact that had promised the fans he wouldn’t quite and he would return back.
WE can’t really believe everything we read in the paper. There are a lot of politics involved when they speak to the media, the players that is. I mean I read that the players want JM back. How true is that? And even if some really want him back, we can’t really assume all want that expect JT. I think JT was correct to say he don’t wanna go back wit JM and would like GH to stay on instead. Imaging how Guus would feel, as well as he has done so far, if JT went to the press and said, yea Guus been good to us but we want JM back?!!
As much as we appreciate JM, I think he appreciates us back. He meant the world to us and so did we to him. If not for Chelsea he wouldn’t have been the TSO=) we helped him become almost untouchable and he made us a feared force in European football. He shouldn’t get all the credit. He shouldn’t be were he is today without Chelsea and its players.
I am not in no way trying to clown down on JM; he will always be TSO in every Blues heart, but all that’s in the past now.
Winnings is not the only everything it’s the only thing. So if Guus don’t stay wit us, I hope it will be for someone who is still hungry for success and cares of Chelsea and is a winner. We don’t need the devils right hand from AC Milan…
I want the Chelsea youngsters to get a run and eventually rule EPL and later Europe. But since we are in crunch time it wouldn’t be fair to give them a run now. We need the all the experience we can get. I am sure Guus is both being fair and doing the right thing for the club. He has said regarding this matter, that he will for sure play youngsters as long as they prove their worthy in practice. To say Messi wouldn’t have been the player he is today shall he have played for Chelsea is just nonsense. Kid has always been superstar. With man u, they wouldn’t have played evens or kiko now had they had fit and healthy squad. Specially evens who been playing really badly lately. I mean we have one of, if not the strongest squads in the world. BUT it’s fairly to say SAF takes more gamble then others. I blame LFS, cause when things was really ugly he should have given the youngsters some quality time. I mean it wasn’t like we were doing superb then. The youngsters should have had their runs then, which would have helped us now. Right now the stake so is so high, who dares to put in youth player if the senior players are fit? I blame the board/GM also (btw is General Manager the right term?) What were they thinking bringing in old farts like deco? A brazil-reject and also a barca reject (soon to be a Chelsea reject as well hopefully).
I hope the club doesn’t go for the big name players this summer. OK I won’t complain if it’s a young lad wit lots of potential like Karim B. and the likes. I hope they invest wisely on young prospects and upcoming stars. And it’s not like we need an overhaul of the team, just a few good reinforcement to cover up for the players that will be offloaded. And next season the likes of Di Santo and co. will be flying high…
According to one stat, that stood out from the first leg against Liverpool, was the fact that we run half km more then Liverpool. I say that’s pretty good for an oldie team without any sorts of pace. Which was our label not long ago=)

Hey pussy wipers stop talking about Mourinho..he is mad….Up Chelsea as Hiddink stays on.
Reply me or you die OK!!!!!!
let us talk about managers later lets focus on liverpool i want blues to beat reds ar SB tommorow .cheers come on blues even 1-0 win will do
BRING US THE ZOLA!!!
Dudes now is not the time to talk about managers, a big game that will decide the rest of the season lies ahead. If we beat Liverpool tomorrow then we will take the momentum with us and beat Arsenal in the FA cup and also go on to beat Barca, but a loss tomorrow will surely prove disasterous especially when we lead Liverpool by 2 goals. Discipline is the key factor, Guus is a clever manager and im sure he would of reminded our players what can happen when we swtich off (e.g. Bolton game). If we can score one goal tomorrow then im 100% sure we will go on to win the match because then Liverpool would have to score 4 times to win the match. Lamps + Drogz + Essien on the feild will surely be a big boost, the effect of their absense on the pitch was evident against Bolton. Gerrard will play tomorrow so Essien will once again have to display his qualities as he did at Anfeild, if we can shut down Gerrard then Torres becomes a fish out of water, but im sure Guus will tell his players to keep their eyes open for the full 90 minutes and lets hope we dont go into extra time and eventually penalties because we all know how that always turns up for us. My prediction for tomorrow’s match 1-1.
Replying to Jaz:
ur right buddy
I think we gonna win tomorrow. we have our chelsea swagger back now plus sooner or later they have to open up thats when we kill them off.
its really important we get the first goal.
Although its never easy to write off liverpool right away, i think we could atleast draw if not win tomorrow. But as a revenge of double liverpool did against us this season, i would say now its our turn to make a double. So we must win!!! 2-0 and i am a happy Chelsea fan!
Ktbffh
IwasMissingJose, you talk so much bollocks. Blaming John Terry for Mourinho’s sacking? And then dedicating a post to “Terry the traitor”. You are clueless and quite possibly not a chelsea fan. I would like to ask the moderator of this website what distinguishes this poster from a common troll?
Guys your views on Mario Gomez.Man this guy is hot.Just 23 years.Lets get him and forget Villa.Still young and can be just what we need.
He could be a torres in our team.Too good.Get him chelsea.
No-one can or should ever slate the child of stamford, mr.chelsea, that is john terry
i cant remember who said that, but john terry is our blue blooded monster, no other team in the world has a player like ours, he manages our team, has held it together, he is a legend, a legacy, a standard and moral figure. No team in the world has a player like terry who would gladly break his leg without a second thought if it meant the difference between winning and losing a trophy. Kicks in the head, dislocations, broken bones, enterring challenges only a mad man should, they say that you are in love when you bleed for someone without hesitation, Terry loves this club.
The bolton game… wow, i was scared they would score that last minute goal that happened to us so often last season. 3 very stupidly conceeded goals. I put one or two down to terry and carvahlo not being together for so long but even still, stupid, cech has been shakey ever since his injury, but he will come good
Mourinho, mourinho left when he had enough of roman, and roman bought him that ferrari as a peace offering but as long as we have roman, mourinho will never come back, i expect to see him at man utd at some point if not carlos quieroz? (the current portugal national team manager)
My mourinho dream is gone, i have moved on now, and rijkaard is the one i hope and think will lead us foward
tomorrow, we should be going for a win to truly break liverpool, i think we will score the first goal just before the end of the first half
benitez will use a 4-4-2, probably with kuyt and torres up front. \\\\\\i can visualise a 2-1 victory for us, with man utd and arsenal both crashing out

Fully agreed !!
IwasmissingJose…..biggest Moron stooge here. Son, get rid of your obsession for Moron.Hiddink’s perfromance is a slap on Moron’s face. Same team which couldn’t go past Lpool in CL has earned a 3-1 victory at Anfield…even Grantt was able to go past them.
Replying to blueboy:
