Cahill seems to have picked up where he left off at Bolton - 1/2 yard mentally and physically behind play

Still not convinced that Torres is the right main target man for a club with Chelsea's ambition, but with Hazard and Mata behind him he'll keep getting chances. Chelsea miss Drogba already. But then again, any team would.

I like Reading, they've got balls. They started off not trying to concede but still trying to play their game. As we know from recent events, Chelsea will always try to dick you from the off and then sit back and wait for the break (I thought they were shit at Wigan by the way). From the first goal, Reading decided to play the game their way and use their own tactics rather than sit back and hope a pummelling doesn't occur like many so called, lesser teams do.

Well done, let's see if they can keep it up. They are my second team tonight outside of City at the moment, Everton being the first.
In the words of my Old Man, "Life will never be the same without Man City, so get it in while you can".

In a lower level, Blackburn looks worst than ever and they still have Kean.

Now i am convinced. He is blackmailing the board ergo he is still the manager.

There isn't any other explanation left.

Chelsea's lack of width and over-reliance on their small playmakers looks eerily familiar

p.s.: Oscar looks 12

Lampard should have gone off, Ramierz is the engine of their team. Can see Reading grabbing another goal on the break here. Don't think Mikel can stop them on his own. Other than Mikel, who can track back? not lampard, oscar, mata, or hazard

this is like us playing de jong, AJ, Balo, Silva, in midfield

please don't let me watch any longer what a good sp. director can make with the richest Club's- wealth.
seriously I am disappointed to have breached my promise of not taking part to the comedy anymore, but the more I see Hazard slaloming inside the box...

I'd swap their current form, but never the players. Would be trading a great professional for a cunt. Other than that you just seem to be:

BB I think the swap was pretty obviously a banter: nobody would swap a professional wizard who is becoming a true Blue everyday more.

Offside. Makes me sick how the commentators so clearly wanted Chelsea to get in front.

Now they are back where they belong they will praise reading for trying though.
