2010: Gerrard - "Anything Messi can do, Joe Cole can do too, if not better."


2015: Joe Cole joins Coventry.

Did Gerrard say that in 2010? I can understand if it was 06 or 07

Yea. 2010, when Chelsea were Champions of England.

Welcome back, Diego!


Pure Passion!

Diego Costa- The only player who blamed himself for the poor form........Respect

Mourinho has likened Abdul Rahman Baba's situation to Ricardo Carvalho.

"I go back to one of the best defenders the Premier League has ever had, Ricardo Carvalho,".

"He was in big trouble for three, four, five months. He said he couldn't adapt to the change from the Portuguese League and the Champions League to the Premier League: the way attacking players were playing, the way he had to adapt and learn how to use his position and his body.

"He was a super player but it was hard for him for three or four months. It's a problem of experience and being adapted to the Premier League. It's depends on the characteristics of the player.

"Baba is really good with the ball, he's very fast, but he's learning how we play and how we defend. The fact he came to us in the last days of the market took from him the possibility to work in pre-season, but he's a good player for sure and we trust him."

So does this mean Azpi would retain his place at the LB whilst Zouma replaces the injured Ivanovic?

Something like this:

Shitt happens is why he sent the army of Chelsea lunatic fans after a referee and his family?

Until those managers get to the level of insanity of Jose then they should be treated with kids glove

WHen Porto defeated man utd of course Jose ran to Man utd side of the technical bench and few mins later he was telling the whole world how he has only a fraction of Man utd budget

EVen though I was glad Man utd was beaten that night, i couldnt help but think what a douchebag this guy is

Can you provide evidence for this statement?

When Ramires is the only player still fighting hard for the manager, that manager is in trouble.

You can't build any decent success with Ramires as your mainstay.

Something like this:

That defence can comfortably play Aston Villa. Zouma is fast so he can play RB.

But going by what Mou said about RLC in his pre match conference, the kid will start today.

So in your lineup above, swap Ramires with RLC and swap Willian/Pedro's position and we're good to go.

But its just Aston Villa. Just like Chelsea, they ve one of the worst defence in the the league

U guys should ve dem easy....

2009 Nairaland Chelsea fan: Joe Cole better than Schweinsteiger

Who actually said this thing?

Chelsea team v Aston Villa: Begovic; Baba, Terry (c), Zouma, Azpilicueta; Loftus-Cheek, Ramires; Wilian, Fabregas, Pedro; Diego Costa.

Chelsea subs v Aston Villa: Blackman, Cahill, Matic, Mikel, Oscar, Hazard, Remy.

Who actually said this thing?

Bluediva.

To be fair to her, Schweini had only just converted from left wing to central midfield the previous year. She was remembering the Schweini who wasn't outstanding on the left-wing, not the Schweini who was bossing central midfield.

RLC. Please don't let me down.

Hazard on the Bench? Chaiii! Never saw that coming.

Our Bench is so strong. Thats cool!

11/01/2014 - Branislav Ivanovic misses his first Premier League game since January 11th 2014, after a run of 63 consecutive starts. Change!

No, even hazard knew it.
