well positive for chelsea is sturridge is coming back and should be in their first team IMO

whats the chelsea youth setup like? any decent players coming through??

Josh McEachran is their best young talent. Kakuta is highly rated but can't even break into Fulham's team regularly on loan.

Did you watch our reserves against theirs last week? We dismantled them with ease, McEachran was completely played out of the game. Many BMers say our kids won't make it now because of the higher standard but to me players like Razak and Guidetti could have more impact than players like Vieira and Jo.

Valencia's making Cole look very poor, the same Valencia that didn't get a sniff at Wembley.

Ya Kolarov had the left shut down at wembley. I wish he would do it every game.

This is the same Chelsea that have clawed back something like 18 points on United and are currently top of the form table. I don't know how united constantly do it, but I think we just have to admit they are still ahead of everyone else, no matter what we think about their level of skill as individuals.

They have a world class manager who instils the way he wants his team to play in every single squad member. They have a real belief in what they are doing and it reflects more often than not out on the pitch....

...sadly

Guidetti's off though, I guess.

I reckon he'd reconsider if we offered him Jo's bit part (21 appearances before Mancini figured out it wasn't working). Carling Cup, early FA Cup, occasional sub appearances in league and maybe CL. Regular appearances in Europa League if we go out of CL early.<br /><br />-- Sun May 08, 2011 5:13 pm --<br /><br />Ancelotti/Luiz bust-up, Luiz been taken off now.

Was it ever at 18 points? I don't think so. Sure it was 12 or 15 with a game in hand to Chelsea.

15 has been quoted regularly over the weekend.

Jesus f*cking christ Rooney is the most pathetic play actor I've ever seen.

And they won their game in hand, so 12. Newcastle proportions.

Credit to Chelsea for crawling back 9 points, but they still looked very very unconvincing despite the run of form. The Spurs game recently typified their recent run. Even the 3-0 against West Ham was a fairly even game.
