Nevertheless, a good response after going down early against Zilina.
I was surprised with a few of the players selected, I expected youngsters but certainly not from the start.
McEachran was neat and tidy, Van Aanholt was impressive going forward, but Kakuta disappointed tbh. Personally glad with Bruma's performance, although not as any near commanding as Alex/Iva he did put in a good shift. Certainly will help his confidence. Ramires played well, great shot in the 2nd half, he is Brazilian after all. Drog still looked short of his usual self but he's getting closer. Great free-kick that was well saved onto the post.
5 out of 5 in the Champions League, not too bad.
hah, there are plenty of the "new blue" variety here in the States ... growing up in Zambia, two of my best mates were truer blue Chelsea fans, and (for their birthdays) I used to get them jerseys with Zola or Desailly or Jimbo on the back ... so it's always hilarious to talk to the new blues who claim to have loved Chelsea from birth, and then see them squirm and nod cluelessly when I bring up names from late 90s / early 00spede54;2957959 said:To be fair I have never met a Chelsea fan who would critisize Roman for anything. He has earned the right to do whatever he pleases with the club and I think that the majority of fans agree with that.
Find me one Chelsea fan who thinks Roman is an arsehole, and I'll show you a newbie glory hunter who understands nothing.

having been there to see Chelsea transition from a hopeful team to a European powerhouse, I too can appreciate what Abramovich has done for the club ... but no matter what the man's actions, these murmurs about interferences from the board aren't right for the club ... after the Shevchenko fiasco, I would have thought the lessons would have been learnt ... for the greater good of the club, surely the official supporters clubs asking the board and the owner questions of concern (not of confrontation or of exasperation) is the right approach to pursue?
