Inter Milan 2 Chelsea 1




Jose Mourinho couldn't be much more happier after his side won at home against his old club with a 2-1 scoreline.

Inter Milan scored an early goal through Diego Milito in the 3rd minute but Chelsea dominated most of the first half. Didier Drogba took a free-kick (more like a penalty kick to him!) but the ball hit off the bar.

Then came the talking point, Salomon Kalou was clearly tripped by Samuel inside the penalty box and Chelsea should've been given a penalty. But the ref didn't see that. After the game, even Samuel admitted that it was a foul and that he was very lucky, no penalty was given.

Second half, Chelsea levelled the scoreline with a nicely placed shot from Kalou. But Chelsea was caught sleeping as Inter attacked and got one back from Cambiasso's blistering strike.

Not long after the goal, Petr Cech had to come off with a calf injury and he was replaced by one of Mourinho's signing, Hilario.

Eventhough Mourinho won this time, but it will be hard for him and his men when they come to Fortress Stamford Bridge in the second leg.

It's far from over guys! UPTHEBLUES!!

Chelsea 2 Arsenal 0


That was a BIG BIG BIG win!!

We have proven again and again that against the big teams, we are the real deal! Two fantastic goals from our hitman, Didier Drogba was enough to bring us back to the top where we belong!Not forgetting to mention that Drogba almost had a third goal when his thunderbolt free kick hit the bar!

Who was the man of the match for you? For me, it was between Petr Cech and Drogba. Petr Cech was excellent having to save shots after shots! But Chelsea's defending was a joy to watch! Reminds me of the old Jose Mourinho days when our defense was the best in the world and still is!

After this, I'm sure Arsene Wenger has something to say.....as always..

Blues Forever!

Hull 1 Chelsea 1


Chelsea shared the points with Hull at the KC Stadium.

From what I saw, Chelsea started to play their game after being one goal behind. Chances after chances came but we could not find the goal winner.

Our defending from set pieces was again showing some vulnerability. But the defenders did very well, just that our attacking players weren't quite as sharp as I expected. Probably fatigue has set in as Chelsea played 3 games in just 7 days!

Now, we look forward to the game against Arsenal.

Burnley 1 Chelsea 2


Before the match, John Terry was hit with a sex scandal and the Burnley fans didn't spare him any and booed him everytime he had the ball. But I guess the boos he got, just made him even stronger by scoring the winning header!

The first goal was scored by Nicolas Anelka.

With the win, Chelsea are still at the top of the table with a 4 point gap.

Tonight, all eyes are on Arsenal vs Manchester United. If they draw, and if Chelsea win their next game, that would mean a 6 point gap.

UPTHEBLUESS

All the tabloids in the UK are saying that John Terry had a secret affair with former team-mate and current England team-mate, Wayne Bridge's ex-girlfriend.

And with all that, people are wanting John Terry to resign or get stripped off his captaincy for England!

I'm not saying that I like what John Terry did (if it was true!), but to strip him off England's Captain or even dropping him from the squad is absolutely stupid! There is no other english player that I can think of who is better than John Terry as a captain.

But this isn't the first time John Terry has been hit with scandals. There were stories that his mum once shoplifted, his dad selling cocaine and now this sex scandal. All I can say is that ONLY THE DATE ON THE NEWSPAPER IS RIGHT, THE OTHERS ARE JUST PLAIN BS!

Leave JOHN TERRY aloneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

F.A Cup: Preston 0 Chelsea 2


Chelsea won. No big surprise. Anelka and Sturridge scored.

With Chelsea the only big team left in the F.A cup, I just can't help but believe that Chelsea can win it so easily! United and Liverpool were dumped earlier and Arsenal were the next victim after they lost to Stoke City last night.

The draw has been made and Chelsea are to face Championship side, Cardiff on our home ground, Stamford Bridge! Another easy win, if u ask me!

Chelsea 7 Sunderland 2


Simply the best! I thought it would be tough for us, but it was easy-peasy lemon squeasy!

I would have to say that it was the best attacking football play I've seen us so far.

NICOLAS ANELKA for me made the big difference. Without him, we struggle, even if we had Drogba in the team, but Anelka gives that slight attacking edge. But tonight, every player out there was simply amazing!

Well done boys! Now, who's next? Upthebluesssss!

CHELSEA GOSSIP

Yesterday was a disappointing night as Chelsea's away game with Hull was postponed due to the unplayable weather conditions. So today, I'm just gonna update you guys on the transfer news!

Many tabloids have linked so many strikers with Chelsea for weeks now and I found some of them quite amusing!


The News!

Spanish side Atletico Madrid are believed to have offered to sell Sergio Aguero, 21, to Chelsea for £30m, providing they can have the striker back on loan for the rest of the season.


Chelsea have entered the race to sign German striker Kevin Kuranyi. The 27-year-old Schalke striker has also held talks with Sunderland.


Chelsea are ready to swoop for £36m Wolfsburg striker Edin Dzeko, the Stamford Bridge outfit are ready to offer straight cash for the big Bosnian front man, where as fellow suitors AC Milan want to try and do a swap deal.


Chelsea have been linked with a move for Italian striker Giampaolo Pazzini for £22m but Sampdoria will only let him leave if the 25-year-old is loaned back to them for the rest of the season.


Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti is lining up a £4m bid for Aston Villa striker Emile Heskey as a replacement for Didier Drogba, who will be absent for four weeks at the Africa Cup of Nations.


Arsenal target Marouane Chamakh, 25, has said the Gunners are "pressurising" him to join them - but he will ignore them to stay with Bordeaux. The Morocco striker says five other Premier League clubs have approached him - Chelsea, Tottenham, Liverpool, Everton and Sunderland.

F.A Cup : Chelsea 5 Watford 0


BUSINESS as usual for the men in blue as they go through to the next round in the F.A Cup with a 5-0 win against Watford.

There was no LIVE coverage on TV and it had to happen when Chelsea scores 5 goals and mind you, this was done without the African Boys and Nicolas Anelka!

The hero for Chelsea was Daniel Sturridge who scored 2 of the 5 goals and the other 3 coming from Malouda, Lampard and an own goal.
