Chelsea - getting their act together ?

[Bridge'srightfoot]

Fully expecting 3 points here and they should be comfortable aswell. Chelsea are really terrible this season, against Liverpool they played like a pub side.
They look poor at the back and their best players are aging.

Let's not get carried away. Very important to stay grounded. Eh.. Its a game of two halves...

Football is a funny old game...

Thanks.

Honestly of all the 'top' teams this season Chelsea have been by far the worst imo. Arsenal, Liverpool, United, Spurs all look better than them.

I think they'll do well to scrape top 4 this season. Lampard won't be around much longer, nor will Drogba when he goes ACN. Terry's not the player he used to be and Luiz is a joke of a defender.

Ramires is a quality player, as is Sturridge and Malouda on his day but this is the weakest Chelsea side in a long time. Have to expect a win here.

After this we have played away to most the "tough" teams allready, only Arsenal away to go. That will be a massive boost next year when all the other contenders have really tough games away including us and will find points tough to come by whilst we have home games against them all!

It's good to see so many are confident of us and so dismissive of Chelsea on their own manor. I do hope you are right, just a shame that Luiz isn't playing as I'd be as confident as you if he were.

Looks like AVB is losing it - first there was his attack on the media, who he claims are victimising him (Ratface in particular) and now he has ordered his players to include him and the rest of the backroom staff in their goal celebrations

If that's true I can see why he may be losing the dressing room. Reeks of arrogance. Plus he celebrates enough by himself whenever Chelsea score

I think it makes him come across as quite insecure and needy

Or maybe he's trying to emphasise (privately) the importance of solidarity and togetherness - the constant leaks and undermining attempts seem to show it's needed (the leaks tending to coincide with Lampard being benched, funnily enough)

It's cringeworthy

If hes trying to emphasize "togetherness" hes doing it in the same way as a corporate team-building activity. Forced, unnecessary, and uncomfortable
