Now this is a proposition I can get behind :D

There is something about that City side isnt there? They just dont seem like the insurmountable force anymore.Mind you ,its only two games that i'm basing this on,their home game against us and the away fixture at Norwich.Without Aguero and with the Champions League,i wouldnt be surprised if they proceeded to drop a few more points,which would be considered a gimme,a month ago.Still all speculation though.But the City wagon doesnt look as threatening to me,atleast not anymore.

In all fairness,they did have a lot of hope on Kagawa,it wasn't just to appease the Asian fan base.Heck,they'd thought they got themselves an equivalent of Hazard for half the price,when the got him in.Just been frozen out by Moyes,for whatever reason. And Park-Ji-Sung was a decent enough squad player,and I don't think anyone expected him to be setting the entire league alight with his performances.

Very true this.You're probably likely to find about 20 football fans out of a 100 "sports" fans(read Cricket) in India. And for every Chelsea fan,I'd wager that there are about 5 or 6 United and 3-4 Arsenal fans.The support for Chelsea is definitely growing ,but nowhere near that of the traditional big sides in England yet.

You guys just made me feel a lot better. Another thing that made me feel better is when I reminded myself who our f**kin manager was.

For the first time in the last couple of days,you have brought a sense of closure to this saddening turn of events.for that I thank you,truly. Yes ,we have let one of the best play makers leave,but heck,we've got the best manager to set us right. You should have a thread dedicated to your thoughts,a blog too perhaps. Brilliant stuff. KTBFFH.

And the best thing about that would be the fact that we wont have a million back passes from Mikel to look forward to.Im jumping at the very thought of it !

This is exactly the reason why even Torres would get a rousing reception, when and if, he ever plays against us. Oh wait,maybe its just coz the oppo's a man down already

Hes very admirable for his last two seasons here.But legend is a bit far-fetched,don't you think? I'm all for a standing ovation and singing his name.But two great seasons don't make a legend. Mata,as great as he was,will never be a Chelsea legend.

Thank God we aren't Scousers,or a certain North London dimwits.`

Well....this is a charm,isnt it? (spotted on CC)

Great to be here.I'd like to hope the doom and gloom in the last two days is not because of me signing up P.S. Goodbye Juan

On a lighter note,the famed RAWK meltdown is fully underway. "Shambolic. Typical of a club that seems to wrap up commercial deals a sh*tload faster than anything that helps us on the pitch... Before adding that they'll help us put better players on the pitch. It's all very Arsenal of the last few years. Except we don't have Champions League and we don't have a stadium which effectively offers us a license to print money. If you can't be rich, be smart. Too often we look poor and stupid. Chelsea just bought the player we wanted, whilst strengthening a rival for 4th place. What are we going to do? Play their own f**king sh*t player we've borrowed at the weekend. " Oh and Mohamed Salah,welcome to Chelsea.

The world will be better for it, dont you think?

Kagawa and Valencia are almost non existent in the flair department,this season atleast.Young (Pffft !) Theyre depending on Januzaj and in playing Rooney in behind the striker ,which he isnt a great fan of. So theyre getting the perfect foil for their strikers. The downside of this is the fact that their already weak midfield will be exposed even further with Mata,unless of course they get a top notch defensive mid from somewhere.
