Blackburn vs Chelsea

smuckers

A big game for both teams, 4-4.

Rikand

4-4, yep

Blackburn will have a 4-1 lead. Kean will take off Rochina and bring on Grant Hanley with 5 minutes to go and it will finish 4-4

MUSEIST

6-5 to chelsea, would not suprise me. Both these sides shifting lots of goals. Let the drama begin:D

Finally Danny gets the nod up front.

Very surprised Malouda is there, he was poor midweek bar a couple of crosses.

Romeu can cover there. Only one 'defender' on the bench, and his defending gives me palpitations!

Am expecting Rochina to have a good game, just wish we had a bit more pace up front for him to feed.

Hope we can pull some points out of the bag today!

I'm pleased to see danny through the middle, also good to see brana back at RB. Good team except for malouda.

homer simpson

Danny should have done better there!

ctrl-alt-delete

Great play there from Blackburn,

Yakubu should have scored there!

homer simpson

Cech fooked

ctrl-alt-delete

Hope Cech is ok, nasty clash of heads with Cole.

MUSEIST

cole punching cech in the face:eek:

ctrl-alt-delete

I don't think Cech looks comfortable at all, looks like he wants to come off to me, he still looks fairly groggy.

Samba injured, big loss for Blackburn.

7 mins stoppage time

Masked Man

God this is absolutely dire watching.

homer simpson

Pure dirt from pederson there, knew exactly what he was doing.

Rikand

i dont know how we're gonna hold out another 45 minutes with Grant Hanley on the park

smuckers

Get Malouda off now he's been awful, Mata has been our best player.:)

MUSEIST

anelka, torres, lukaku, zola...................anyone for malouda:rolleyes:

homer simpson

Glad to see the Torres on for Malouda.

Can't believe Lampard was left alone like that in the box for the second week in a row,

Thats where Blackburn miss Samba.

Was a brilliant cross with the outside off the boot alright, think he has done very well today on Olsson and Hoilett.

Rikand

whole lot of ball watching going on for that goal. badly missing samba there.

SUPER FRANKIE LAMPS!!!

Masked Man

I still get that feeling of '**** the haters' every time Lamps scores.

homer simpson

Blackburn have responded well since the goal.

ctrl-alt-delete

Bloody hell Hanley, what a poor effort with that follow up!

the_monkey

Super save from Cech..

Should have done better, but its still the type of shot you'd expect to see from a CB in all fairness.

Lampard is playing stormer today, some change in him since the start of the season. some of his passing and movement has been exquisite.

Yeah, a case of it falling to the wrong player!

Lampard has done well alright, nice long range effort too, although I wouldn't have been happy with Robinson had it gone in.

Still not out of the game anyways, as i eluded to earlier, we play a good counter attacking game, but don't have a pacey frontman to take full advantage of it.

thebison

Lampard has 6 goals in his last 8 games. I think he's proved his point.

homer simpson

Great save Cech.

homer simpson

Thank god Rameries was there, fantastic tracking back!

Great clearance from what looked a certain goal, that man has some engine on him!

Edit: Danny bad miss again!

why in gods name are we hanging on against blackburn?
