….Its that Portuguese temper again…..

By: Nelson | Comments 3 Comments

For the most part, Jose has this pretty good policy of taking the attention off his players and drawing it instead to him. He’s acknowledged it himself, and I think it works to everyones benefit because it provides the players with less drama, and the fans with more entertainment (after all, who doesn’t love [...]

Mourinho Begs Forgiveness

By: Nelson | Comments No Comments

Not quite, but as close as he ever will to begging I suppose. According to BBC Sport, Mourinho has recently made public his apology to Andy Johnson for his comments about the player.
I think its good that Mourinho can admit he was wrong (though I’m sure the threat of legal action helped [...]

Čech to make speedy return?

By: Nelson | Comments 2 Comments

The horrendous injury to Petr Čech was expected to take him out for a minimum of six months, most likely a year. Yet news reports suggest that he is on his way to a fast recovery, as early as January and only as late as February.

Brilliant Strikes

By: Nelson | Comments 5 Comments

I don’t care if you like Chelsea or not, you just cannot say these goals are bad. Ballack’s curling free kick, Lampard’s top corner, and Drogba’s wonder goal. I’m throwing in Essien’s strike against Arsenal too, just because that was beyond wonder.

Everton is demanding an apology over Jose’s comments on their striker Andrew Johnson. Jose was incensed that Johnson drew a penalty over his (almost) clash with Hilario. Now we [...]

Even God needs a rest from time to time

By: Nelson | Comments 2 Comments

It was called the Middle Ages, you know?
John Terry had a slight back problem today, and decided that his team could do it without him as they faced the Toffees in a showdown. Although his replacement, Khalid Boulahrouz, was a bit shaky, he managed all right, despite the incident with Merseyside Police. All [...]

John Terry is God

By: Nelson | Comments No Comments

Well, not really, but my English friend likes to think so. Strangely enough he supports Arsenal, but I suppose I can understand. After all, country before club right?
While John Terry may not be able to move mountains, he certainly can forsee the future. After Chelsea pulled from eight to five behind leaders [...]

FC Porto for the Draw

By: Nelson | Comments 2 Comments

Hello my enormous and wonderful fanbase! (Hey, I can pretend)
Its time again for another Champions League Round of 16, also known as the early Christmas present for some coughManUcough, and the reason why Satan is Santa rearranged for others.
Chelsea didn’t get a bad draw, but not the best either. Lille [...]
