A rule I've never heard of! Thank you!

Quick question. How the hell is Johnny Evans playing today? I thought he got a straight red card against City last weekend?!

The bench makes interesting reading. Jamal Blackman, Bertrand, David Luiz, Oriol, Meireles, Malouda, Lukaku. Think maybe AVB has had a good look at how well Drogba has done over the years against Arsenal, and with him out, possibly send out Mini-Drogs if things aren't going to plan?

I can see where you're coming from. In the League, no one has yet to figure out how to stop them (Silva I think, mark Silva out of the game and they're done for) but aside from Man U, they've yet to play anyone of good standard (yes they played Spurs, but they were in awful form at the time, hence the 5-1), but in the Champions League, Munich dominated them totally, Napoli were unlucky not to get 3 points at the Etihad and Villareal were unlucky not to get at least a draw at the Etihad as well. They need to pull something out of the bag in the Champions League. When we play City at the Bridge in December, I hope AVB is sensible enough to have someone do a job on Silva, a la Essien on Gerrard under Hiddink. Yes it takes a man out of the game, but if it's someone like Mikel, he isn't likely to be steaming forward to support the attack. Silva is their main man, we're going to need to get him in our pocket, or we could be in trouble.

CFC proposal rejected by CPO, needed 75% to win, got 61.6%. Well, what happens now?

Speed is key, hence the signing of Hulk, pass it around and be patient with it, then when the time is right give it to your quick winger (Sturridge, Mata, Hulk, Neymar whoever) and they can skin the full back 8/10. Then if you have someone like Sturridge or Hulk, cut inside onto their stronger foot every now and then and have a pop, nearly always troubles the keeper, possible rebound to your oncoming centre forward.

Had my first chance at a Career on World Class. I can't keep a clean sheet to save my life, had to come back from 2-0 down in the first game of the season (combination of Mata and Sturridge saved me, winning 3-2 in the dying minutes). ----------------------Cech --Boss-------Luiz------------JT-----Cole -------------------Busquets ---Schweinsteiger--------Lampard --Hulk----------Sturridge---------Mata I'm in a pickle at the moment though. Danny is scoring for fun, but he's only playing as Torres got injured for 8 weeks in pre-season, but now Torres is back, and came on as a sub against Manure, AND SCORED an 81st minute 3-3 equaliser. Sold Drogba, Essien, Kalou and a few others for a total of about £50million, hence why I could afford Busquets (excellent signing so far, pretty pacy, great tackler, great passer as well), Schweinsteiger (another excellent signing (which I expected), his long range passing is beyond belief, I can pick out Mata/Ashley from the other side of the pitch 9/10) and Hulk (best of the lot, seriously flying down the right, cuts in on his left foot, absolutely wellies it, and has a cracking cross as well). Loaned out most of the youngsters, held on to Romeu, Josh, Lukaku (who I'm not that impressed with, though I haven't given him a proper run out), Bertrand etc. Loving it though, wonderful game.

How exactly? It was Alex who got turned for the goal, Luiz did get back as far as I'm concerned and would've tackled Saha.

Extra Time then penalties

I think Mata's absolutely fine, in today's Blues News Headlines I'm 99.9% sure you can see him training as normal with the lads.

Manure v City was absolutely unreal. I've never seen a Manure team implode so massively, but then you have to admire how clinical City were. This is a completely different Man City to last year, they're confident, playing magnificent football, and it's going to take an almighty effort to get past them. Manure's midfield is absolutely dire though, I was surprised at the lack of Giggs today as he's usually SAF's go to man in big games, but he took to a midfield two of Anderson and Fletcher, two of the most overrated players in the whole league. Brilliant stuff. I have to say, Silva is some player.

One of the most bizarre, frustrating football days in my life. It was absolute insanity from start to finish. Their penalty was a soft one, Bosingwa's red card was very 50/50, you have against Boss that he was pulling SWP down, but then SWP was pulling back, and you have to judge whether JT was covering or was he slightly behind the play. That was a tough call that I think we should've had the benefit of the doubt. Drogba's was pure insanity though. I can understand his frustration at losing the ball, but to dive in like that was downright idiotic. Then with the 9 men, we could do no more than we did. We dominated the game completely, and it was just one of those days in front of goal, any other day Anelka would've buried that header, Luiz's bicycle would've been one of the goals of the season but for Lamps' unfortunate positioning. You can't really be annoyed at that performance really, a referee hell bent against us and one idiotic decision from one player cost us dear. It happens. Life goes on. We're still in touching distance with United, although after today's performance I can't see anyone beating City this season, no matter how hard we or Manure try. Keep the blue flag flying high, I hope Mata is okay, and I'm so looking forward to Torres coming back and hopefully Ramires back too. A midfield three of Lampard, Meireles and Ramires would be fantastic to see.

Meireles for me. Thought it was a bizarre decision to take him off, he was everywhere, great distribution, supporting our much depleted attack, turning out to be some buy for us.

No idea why there was 4:38 of injury time when only 3 minutes was put up AND the only "stoppages" were corners. But still, cracking point for Norwich! Edit: Incredible save from Ruddy at the death as well!

For Lampard to score it would be absolute perfection.

I recommend playing the first one first, mostly because it's one of the best games you'll ever play, but City is a direct sequel to Asylum, given how the first one ended...but I don't honestly see any reason why you shouldn't be okay by going straight to Arkham City.

To be fair, in the first few months of last season he didn't have his bearings yet, bit of a headless chicken, but from about November onwards he's been one of the most important members of our team.

The Walking Dead started up again last night, Series 1 was incredible, high hopes for Series 2!

Shearer compared him to Zola on MOTD last night, highest praise of all!

Thought that was a good half from the boys! Everton were by no means out of it at 1-0, but going in 2-0 right before the break was eactly what we needed, kick on now lads! Also, Lamps and Mata have been absolutely immense so far.

City smashing Villa 4-1. City v Manure next week should be magnificent, but you can guarantee it'll be a bore draw. Which would be perfect.

Yeah Luiz only got back yesterday I believe, rested.

I believe we refer to that as a "bad moment"? Living in town near University, a group on Facebook has invited me to a huge house FIFA battle to take place in a few weeks, so me and my two housemates are taking part, incredibly excited, will try and force us to play as Chelsea, we'll see!

That's unbelievable. All of the big games are broadcast on Sky/ESPN here in the UK, why should it change? Every team deserves an equal chance to be on TV, this is just appalling from Liverpool, but did we expect anything less? Unbelievable.

Anyone done anything with the Ultimate Team yet? Me and my housemate are addicted, it's a fantastic game mode. Our team at the moment could do with a little work, but it's getting there: -----------------------------Abbiatti --Glen Johnson---Bonucci---Mathijsen---Rafael -----------------M'Villa------------Defour (incredible player on the game) --Lennon-------------------------------------Pablo Aimar ---------------Higuain----------Balotelli Our defence needs strengthening, but it's looking good. Also, defending is gradually improving, it was so difficult at the start, you just have to be patient, keep jockeying close to the man and wait for a slight opening. Fantastic game.
