Afternoon lads

Right back crisis LSTD, can kompany play rb? or chiellini?

LUIZ!!!!!

Sturridge and Miereles off, good performance by both

Don't think either can

Torres with assist

Torres what a ball to Mata and amazing save from keeper

The bayer keeper is top class by the looks of it

Godin?

================Cesar=============
========Chiellini===Rio====Godin======
==Vrsalijko====Kompany==Essien===Evra=====
===========Aguero====Nasri==========
================Torres=========

what you think lstd? can bale play rb?

Godin might be able to not sure

Essien?

No width and pretty negative

Essien Chielini Ferdinand Evra
Kompany Moutinho

Would work fine imo

Thats the one! Cheers lstd solved my crisis

Alex on for Luiz

Lovely goal and good vision from torres

Linesman has been dreadful, anelka scores but offside from Cole run, who's about 3 yards on side lol

Should be 3-0 but poor descisions on Torres and anelka goals

Lovely goal by dortmund

MATA!!!

That is an absolutely brilliant run by Torres, top class past 3 players and lovely ball for mata

If Torres keeps playing that this I'll be very very happy

Problem is LSTD, he aint scoring. If he keeps linking up, setting up etc its fine for a midfielder. not for a striker

Good results for Chelsea and Arsenal

Milan have just equalised in the last minute and they've had like 5% possession all half. 2-2.

player ratings

Cech - 7 - made some good saves when needed
Bosingwa - 6 - Solid defensivly but poor going forward oddly lol
Ivanovic - 7 - solid
Luiz - 8 - intercepted everything and brilliant goal
Cole - 7 - linked with mata well
Mikel - 6 - didnt really do much other than keep us going
Miereles - 6 - good shift
malouda - 6 - kept things ticking well
Mata - 9 - quality again, beats everyone easily
Sturridge - 7 - very lively and looked dangerous forced great saves
Torres - 8 - two assists and a much better performance

subs: Lampard 6, Anelka 6, Alex 6

good result for arsenal too

I had Perisic as well

vincent if it wasnt for some good saves hed have scored 2 or 3, was much much better goals will come if he plays like this. at the end of the day if he isnt scoring but creative goals every game cant complain if we are winning lol

yh barca 2-2 ac very surprising

Yes and there are a lot of good keepers who can make good saves in the premier league. He needs to score goals, if he can get on a run he'll be back in form.

tbf he did score for some absurd reason it was ruled offside, a very tidy goal too

anelka had one ruled out too which was absolute rubbish lol

should have been

chelsea 4-0 leverkusen
Torres(mata)
Luiz(torres)
Anelka(cole)
Mata(torres)

cant argue with two assists and a goal, mata and sturridge link up a lot better he seemed more confident when he had the ball to try things knowing more chances would come even if he didnt take one

Yes but he didn't which is the main thing.

technichally he did lol

im sure he will he did look much better and should keep improving now with mata and sturridge, their link up together was brilliant especially torres and mata. If they are scoring and setting each other up like tonight no one can complain really. Its a team game not about one man and if torres is getting assists at least he should be in the team and he should have more confidence now. If hes not then he should be on the bench like he was vs sunderland

but there were definitly promising signs tonight from the front 3 especially.

Officially they didnt lol
