Zola

We've scored double what they have, and conceded half of what they have, we should beat them convincingly if table mathematics was ever accurate haha

Felt a bit sorry for the bloke yesterday early in the game, he was desperate to make an impression, thankfully he took his goal and then looked a little more composed. I'd like to see him get more chances if we are leading comfortably in a game especially.

Good to see you back sir

Safe Travels Obi one. Not the flashiest player, but he deserves massive respect. Won it all with us. His attitude was of the highest professional standard, never complained and did his best anytime he played.

Chelsea are expected to discover next Wednesday if their planning application to rebuild Stamford Bridge will be approved. The application to convert the ground into a 60,000-seat stadium will be presented to Hammersmith and Fulham Council planning and development control committee on January 11, the council said on Thursday. And the committee is expected to deliver its verdict after the scheduled meeting, which is due to begin at 1900. Hammersmith and Fulham Council has recommended the application be approved, but the complexity of the project means it would just be one significant step in the rebuild to transform the current 41,000-capacity stadium into a new one. It would also expedite Chelsea's requirement to find a temporary home. Chelsea submitted the planning application in November 2015. The proximity of overground and underground railway lines creates challenges for the project in a built-up area of west London.

might need to watch then again in spring haha. I have forgotten loads already...

A welcome break from the league, hope we smash 'em. With no European football etc, dont see the need for much rotation, but I would maybe give Batman a run out etc.

Its set for the summer, not the usual April!

Worth more than £100M to stay up aint it? £6M is laughable, and insulting to them.

13 in a row is no mean feat, desperately disappointing to lose so poorly to that lot though, really annoying.

Lets worry IF we are knocked off the top spot, then should we sorry, or feel bad. We are in a privileged position.

Utterly depressing

f**k sake

Let them pick up the bookings not us

Silly from cahill

Get into these thuggy badgers !

Chelsea can counter White Hart Lane crowd - Premier League Daily Melchiot believes Chelsea's counter-attacking style will give his former club the advantage in Wednesday night's London derby at Tottenham Tottenham must entertain White Hart Lane when they host Chelsea, and the Blues could exploit it, says the Premier League Daily panel. Chelsea head to Tottenham on Wednesday night, live on Sky Sports 1 HD, looking to set a new record for consecutive Premier League wins in a single season by claiming their 14th straight victory. Tottenham were beaten 2-1 when the sides met at Stamford Bridge in November and, speaking on Sky Sports News HQ, the Premier League Daily panel believes the pressure to secure all three points against their rivals on home turf could backfire for Spurs. "Chelsea don't have to entertain the White Hart Lane fans," said former Blues defender Mario Melchiot. "If Tottenham start the game and sit back, maybe the fans will turn [on them]. "But the other side is that it's a derby, you have to win, so how are you going to go about it? You have to attack. And everybody knows the strength of this Chelsea side is the counter-attack." Oops! Remember you need to log in using your Sky iD to watch Premier League video Highlights as Chelsea beat Tottenham 2-1 at Stamford Bridge in November Ex-Arsenal full-back Nigel Winterburn believes the game will provide an "explosive" spectacle for the neutrals, but agreed the onus will be on Spurs to go out and win the fixture. "Tottenham are going to have to force the game a little bit, I'd be surprised if Spurs fans let them sit back," Winterburn said. "They know they're going to have to take the game to Chelsea a little bit. So providing we don't get a sending off, we're expecting an explosive game that a little bit of magic can decide." Melchiot - who joined the Blues from Ajax in 1999 before leaving for Birmingham City in 2004 - says Chelsea and Tottenham's players will be aware Wednesday's derby is about more than points. "It doesn't matter if you're not English, you pick it up very quick," he said. "As soon as you arrive in England, these are the games that people explain to you in a different way. "They tell you 'listen, this is not about you, not about whatever you have achieved. It starts tonight and it is about your fans'. "When you get that, you know you are going to be in a heated battle. This is why the Premier League is so special because these are the games you look forward to."

Got to be honest I will be gutted if we dont win tonight

It seems to be clicking into place now a bit more for him, just hope not too well...

Hopefully some new developments soon, gone quiet again!

Both legends already, different players who should be celebrated more than anything. Costa isnt that long in the door, so lets judge him after a few more seasons. Massive boots to fill with the Drog, though, he was the ultimate big game player.

This one has me worried! Would love us to win this and get the record!

What a game !!! Come on lads. PUNISH THEM !!!!

We are marching on !!!
