Rant Box: Chelsea v. Valencia

By: Jack | December 6th, 2011
   

The bums they are a squeaking.

Frank Lampard and Fernando Torres are on the bench for the defining match of Andre Villas-Boas’ tenure at Chelsea thus far. Bold and correct decisions, will they pay off?

    Now. Today I am happy. Nice tactics. We want a solid chelsea. Ramirez did well too.

  • Well, that was enjoyable.

  • iakobou

    Indeed, very enjoyable. As I said on my blog, it was organized, rhythmic, and passionate. Good sign of things to come, I believe.

  • Agreed.

  • Mateo

    Sturridge is starting to tick me, he is a great huge talent, but pass the fucking ball once in a while!!

  • AISIR

    man right there, sturridge had chance to put the perfect through ball in for torres... why did he not try the pass.. so freakin greedy..

  • Great night, eh comrades?

  • ZachAttack8

    Didier Drogba tra la la la la la! Didier Drogba tra la la la la la la la! The man is back!

  • Drogs! We're in baby!

  • Oh Didier.

  • Mikel on. We still need some possession.

  • A lot of defending being done, but we are doing it rather well.

  • AISIR

    gosh, i wish sturridge shared half the time..

  • Where's that fellow who keeps saying Ramires is useless in the comments?

  • Tela

    Am here....am still not convinced with ramirez....but am happy with the way he played today. We shall see what he will offer...

  • Wayne

    HAHAHA yea where is that dude?

  • We've reached the half. I'm loving this.

  • Mateo

    still think we need one more net to be safe.

    but whats up with this team? we suddenly started playing really good football

  • Mateo

    Bane has been quite under the radar last couple of games, hes preforming really well IMO

  • Very good today.

  • And Genk lead Bayer. As it stands, we would go through as group winners.

  • We look fantastic on the break. If Danny was only willing to share, ha.

  • AISIR

    yea.. I like the deeper defensive line, suits us much more..

  • We do look more sound. It's like a 4-5-1 when we're not in possession.

  • Mateo

    HAHA its so amusing when someone tries to outrun Rambo.

  • 2-nil! Ramires the workhorse!

  • This is better from us.

  • Valencia much the better side apart from our goal. We need to settle down.

  • Mateo

    need to get the ball back cuz its starting to rain

  • Ridiculous opening few minutes.

  • AISIR

    DROGBA!!! still love him!

  • Mateo

    DROGBAAAA on the comeback!!!! GREAT STUFF

  • EPIC START

  • FSC's feed blows up just as the players were taking the field. Awesome.

  • It's back. Thank God.

  • Up the Chels.

  • Luka

    Villas-Boas has balls i'll give him that. We will see about his brains after the game.

  • So excited, and nervous. I think we can win, but it won't be easy. 2-1 Chelsea win is my prediction.

  • Play. Now.
