A fantastic shot, but I fear it's going to be a long hard season constantly looking over our shoulder. Thank God there seems to be some real crap down below us.

BTW, I got Matt Dickinson's biography of Bobby Moore this morning. Looking forward to reading it as not much is known about the man who was a very private person not given to close friendships, despite his worldwide fame.

True, but we did the same last year (40 points would've seen us relegated in some seasons) and the football was dire.

Thanks for the book tip - one to get my dad for his birthday. Then I can borrow it...
 
How very dare you! Ecuadorian...

Yes, it was said tongue in cheek.

In the same way that 'foreign' cricketers are fast tracked into becoming 'English', I thought the English FA may delve into his past/family tree and find a distant link.

I thought Chelsea were way off the pace last night - was astonished to see Drogba in the starting line-up.

If we were resting Costa then Remy would've been a better start than Drogs.

I'm in the Blues Loving Minority here but I have no doubt in my mind that our relationship with Drogba should've stayed severed with that wonderful final kick in 2012.

He lacked match time last night but these days a top flight player he ain't.

Tough match ahead this weekend - a point would do me.

Mr Jose - I think you have screwed up royally this week.

Bad result mid-week with Drogba starting.

Pathetic today throwing a one goal lead away against ten men - why the hell we sit back when we go one up in these circumstances is beyond me.

Why take Costa off and bring Drogba on? Remy has twice the pace.

Bit gutted SuperFrank scored too.

The Man U result is as surprising as it is hilarious.

On a football forum I frequent another poster was giving it the big yin about how Man U were 'back' after they gubbed QPR. He looked foolish then, and he looks even sillier now.

Mourinho is the absolute master of deflection, and happens to be a very good manager. If his team is playing poorly, you never hear about it, just his latest pronouncement. An astute chap who will be considered as one of the greats when he retires, if he isn't already.
