Relief for you people! We’re getting some trials for new writers in BlueChampions. I’m discussion with some volunteers and you’d be seeing some new cast on the blog soon. One such volunteer is our dear Karma CW. The match reactions of the Hull City vs Chelsea match would be posted by Karma CW. We hope we’ll be able to post the article sometime tomorrow.
Unfortunately, I couldn’t watch the match as ESPN went off sharp 15 mins before the match. Then I realised that it is an issue being faced by many in India for the last few days. I was only going by the BBC updates and the numerous text messages sent across by my cousin. Purely based on his (he is a Chelsea fan, of course) text messages, I’d say that we had a poor first half filled with nervy defending and purposeless attacks. The second half showed some promise and we should have certainly won with the number of chances we created. Drogba was invisible and lazy until the free kick goal which was taken even before the wall was ready. Overall, the score did reflect the match. Both of us were disappointed but Man Utd will also drop points, you’ll see them do it big time, trust me.
Fergie and Wenger must be quite pleased with this result. This might even have given a ray of hope for Wenger. In a way this result helps as we don’t go to the Arsenal with complacency. With a great opportunity to extend the lead being squandered, Chelsea must know that they need to be on top of their game to ‘batter’ Arsenal and regain and extend the lead. Okay then, let’s wait for Karma CW’s first ever post in BlueChampions then!

Dear BC,
Thank you for honouring me with a rare chance, but it is as heavy a task as it is dear. I am very busy right now, but i will try to bring something in here tomorrow! CHEERS!
Good choice of deputy BC.
Karma, I’m glad that you have decided to give a hand helping. It’s been a joy reading some of your latest comprehensive match analysis.
Keep up the good work both of you,it.s by a country mile the best fan blog on the web.
Chelsea went one point closer to the title yesterday, is how I see it.
Chelsea dropped two points yesterday, that’s how i see it , quite honestly and i am sure the vast majority of fellow blues here will think likewise. We were utter rubbish last night. From what i saw, it brought back memories of the old Drogba we knew. Forget his goal it was great but frankly Drogba was terrible. It was back to the Drogba of old where “it’s either me or no one” mentality kicks in. He feels he has to score our goals even when others r in better positions. The same goes for Lampard last night. Why does he feel he has to get to the twenty goal margin everytime. The principle is this, when the team works for each other everybody scores or most of them anyways, ditto game versus sunderland. The lads were lazy last night none so more than Drogba. he looked heavy and he had a poor first touch all night. In short we were poor all round the park last night and the press will have a field day with us . JT’s issue would just add more to it. I am dissapointed in Terry, however when the story first broke we were made to beilieve he had a fling with Bridge’s missus. i was shocked. Then as it turned out the lady in question was Bridge’s ex girlfriend. It doesn’t absolve Jt but it shows how the British press will turn a story to squeeze us. Anyways i wish all parties involved the best. However i sincerely hope we play better over the weekend. Quite frankly we have no choice!
Bring it on KarmaCW !!
Hopefully we’ll play better against Arseanal..
Really bad result for chelsea… and the game against arsenal will be even harder now…
Poor game all around, but few players did their job and we should have won this game. I still don’t understand why players like Fagan can just stand in front of the goal keeper to disturb him and it’s all legal. That goal was an easy catch for Petr Cech, but the fagan game play, which consisted of holding back the goal keeper, was just ridiculous… I’m not making excuses for our game, but frankly it pissed me off. The guy did the same thing all night, in front of the refs and it was all good… not to mention the ref calling any falling player…come on ref, if the guy has nowhere to go, what do you want the defenders to do?lay down on the floor?… Referees are sometimes just like big dummies… Anyway, let’s concentrate on Arsenal this week end. They are coming with revenge written all over their faces, and we do not want to drop any more points. Well done boys, better coming home with a point than a defeat and nothing. About JT, sorry mate, it is a very difficult situation you’re in, but keep on playing at your best and we will be behind you…
If the match was that bad,it’s good I didn’t see it.
My fortunes seemed to be tied to Chelsea’s, when the team wins everything goes well n my life… when the play and results are bad, my luck and days are shattered too.
Oh the champion years ….the best days of my life too……. How I long for them again !
Maybe I am bit too superstitious… No ? anyone else with some kind of intertwined karma thing with CFC ?
Swat me hard if you think it is merited !
Dana and cosanostra,
Thank you so much, it encourages me, drives me!
wow..It is come true that our mate KarmaCW to be BC’s deputy….congrats and roll on mate….
as for Hull-CFC game…Chelsea didn’t try to move the ball quickly since they realize that Hull giving us pressure on physical strength …
and Carlo seems too late to bring on J. Cole ..he really could up the tempo and do that tricks & flicks….about 10mins is little impossible to do that and change the scoreline….
about JT’s case…oh how British press so blow this case massively…and today in my opinion the press (theSun) is try to relate Chelsea with this case…..I think it’s some campaign to the world about Chelsea and its players to be hated…
for match against Arsenal….I hope that SAF will hear that Chelsea ….batter ‘em batter the goons……
i’m sorry to forget the link, here’s….

lessons learned from yesterday
1. zhirkov????…….the new russian ronaldinho……my arse……he is nothing else but a light weighted pussart……to make matters worse he has no pace at all…..sheer waste of 18m quids…
2. Anelka……had his worst day yesterday since he has come to chelsea……no clue about what he is doing…..no touches…just roaming around the pitch with no objective in mind…..ancelotti showed again he is naive in his approach……playing anelka on the wing was a waste of time and energy but I am sure that ancelotti has not yet realized that…
3. deco……this Brazilian jerk is and was never good enough for chelsea but chelsea still went out and purchased this NPA (non performing asset) under the guidance of the biggest moron of all times (i.e scholari)……terrible passes, lethargic in his play, gives the ball away cheaply, not strong enough to hold off challenges from players in midfield….he is nothing else but DEAD WOOD at chelsea.
4. J.cole…..the most overrated english player that I have seen in recent times……the only sensible thing that chelsea have done is not offered him a new contract….and the reason for that is that he does not deserve a new one….this tiny bopper keeps huffin and puffin throughout the game and does not have the stamina to either create anything worthwhile or finish 90 minues of a soccer game……I am sure that he does not even get erected without a viagara (such is his condition)….lol..
5. ballack: the most shameless player I have ever seen…..offers nothing on the pitch…..waste of time and energy and 45 pounds that spectators pay to come and see this looser play…..and guess what ??…he is the captain of the german national team….that just about sums up the condition and pathetic state of german football……I hope this motherfucker breaks his leg (or somebody breaks his leg) so that he can never play soccer again for anybody let alone chelsea fc.
Someone ban this Afro guy. It seems like he only supports a team when they win, and gets highly frustrated when they don’t. Maybe ‘cos he wouldn’t be able to boast to his mates then. Typical gloryhunter. Fuck off mate. We don’t need the likes of you around here.
@afro last month (jan)has been joe cole best since injury ancelloti is not doing wrong diamond is useless without essien because of his dynamism we can move through middle anelka and drogba played after 2 months together so it takes time anelka was playing lone striker role he will be fine vs arsenal .ballack is ok just that holding role doesnt suit him
