How you guys see this? Hes hinting he want to leave soon. 24 YO..

Maybe it's just a rumor but the news mentioned that he turn against SAF. Woooo it's show time.

Seems like we're attempting a move for one of the best defender in the world.

And I think Terry just missing the International fixture, not the away game against Villa.

I actually hoping these three player come to SB. Lukasz Podolski, Phillip Lahm and Bastian Schweinsteiger. Podolski is one of the pacey striker in his era. I reckon he can do good deal for us if we get him. And since Cole is 30 already, I wouldn't mind to do a swap deal involving him for anyone above.

Terry is back on light training. Hope he will be fit to Villa game.

Chelsea leading race to sign 20 YO youngster from Sunderland, and some other news about this kid. Gerard Houllier must be thinking too much, comparing our target man with his.

Can't wait for the game. 2 weeks of international fixture is killing me!

1) Terry might not be able to hold full 90 minutes but he will hold on to it.

2) Bruma. If he's not listed as subs, Essien will forced to come down to CB.

3) Depends on where he'll be heading. If right side I guess should be able to cause some problem to Villa's defense.

4) We have decent, but not best. I think is pure unlucky on the diagnose part. But I'm hoping to get Gary Lewin since he already quit Arsenal. He's fulling committing himself to English national team squad. Gary have plenty record of saving player's career, most notable one would be Eduardo's leg, and Terry's incident against Arsenal.

Essien, Anelka, Malouda ready to step up for free kick but don't put too much hope on scoring.

We had easy start with facing WBA. We beat them. 8th game, Manu draw with them. The fans say WBA on form. I wonder

Seems Dunne gonna sub out soon.

Relax bro. We are without a number of key players. We're doing fine IMO. Just a little passing mistakes.

Iva did good as cover for Alex. The only problem we're lacking like citeh game; creativity. Maybe can bring in creative player. (know who I'm talking about? )

Kakuta out, Zhirkov in.

McEachran for Ramires. Bosingwa for Ferreira

A draw is sufficient for us despite we're missing out plenty of big stars. All department are doing fine, finisher is what we needed. Anelka should've score that goal during stoppage time. There's no excuse for him to miss that. McEachran did good, until he play with fire and almost cost us the game. Hope he'll learn his lesson.

I can forsee Ivanovic stepping up to take over Alex's position. It's a positive pressure, both of them will fight for the place to partnership with Terry or give him some rest while facing weaker teams. I think we deserves the credit more than Villa do, the fact that we're missing so many big names and playing away from home. Villa should've at least 2 goal lead in first half but they didn't convert it. Bosingwa did gave Warnock some heartbeat moment. Glad he's back and performing. Now our defense is stronger than ever!

I thought I was the only one who noticed that. Anelka was forced to go wide position cause no one can provide him chances. When he moved to wide angel, he tries his luck but can't convert it to goal. Malouda wasn't being himself yesterday, Kakuta had couple of chances but he wasn't really that calm. Guess the pressure got to him before the ball does. He need more CL match I guess. Ramires, again he need to eat ALOT to buck up his size as he dispossess couple of times because Villa titan challenged him. When Dunne went off, I thought we can score. But I guess I've forgotten our Didi wasn't there as well.

On the defense department, Ivanovic and Terry swapped yesterday. Ivanovic was covering like Terry did, Terry wasn't particularly outstanding. Guess his back problem is not fully cure yet. Hopefully he gets some rest for CL game against Moskow, let Bruma or Alex partnership with Ivanovic. Ferreira was alot better compare to last time. He did have couple of good interception so I think he deserves the credit just as much as others do. But yeah Iva was MOM yesterday, without a doubt. As for Cole, he's as dangerous as always. Just that no one like Drogba can provide more options for him to pass the ball to. Mostly Malouda and Zhirkov during second half.

As for midfield force, Mikel did good. Essien fly kite alot, but defense he did intercept as well. Ramires, same old. Improved runnning, but still too skinny for BPL IMO.

As for attacking deparment, pretty much like what others said.

McEachran! But I think maybe it's time for us to try out Borini. With his height and size, perhaps he's suitable for BPL? Summore now we're lacking a target man. Wouldn't lose anything if we try him out besides some minor mistakes and some goal scoring opportunity right?

Few Questions:

1) When Mikel will score, how he score, which team and how would he celebrate?

2) Same question as above, but Ivanovic in this occasion.

These two players are well established in SB but they just haven't open their accounts on Chelsea's scoring sheet. I want to see them score! Even Benayoun scored already. :/

Oh didn't made myself clear. League goals is what I'm talking about. sorry xD

EDIT: Oh found out edi. He scored against Bolton on 09-10 season.

Yeah my bad on that. Just noticed besides Mikel, Ferreira and Zhirkov haven't score in BPL.

Added on October 17, 2010, 10:27 pmOT: i'd give RH one more game to manage and he will be out from pool position if he fail to win next game. Though we are rivals, but seeing them went all the way to relegation battle, feel sad for the fans.
