2-0 at half time.

We're playing on the counter but we look real dangerous every time we attack whereas Arsenal don't look dangerous despite their pressure.

Fantastic performance from Chelsea so far, wonderful on the eye as well!

[abigsmurf]

Excellent result. Never really thought we'd lose, Arsenal don't seem to have anyone who can reliably finish against a strong defence.

Let them have a bit too much possession in the second half and they did force a couple of save. However Drogba was unlucky not to get his hat trick.

balls. Bad night of football.

As usual Ancelotti waits until 80 minutes to change the side when things aren't going well.

Ashley cole has broken his ankle. Yay!

Four posts in a row \o/

Nice to see we're able to ramp up our performances. Apparently we were poor first half but much better second.

Now to wait for us to get drawn against Man City in the next round.

[Flabio]

Your wish is the FA's command (assuming they beat Stoke in their replay)

[abigsmurf]

Things certainly be going well for the tabloids. Ashley Cole getting injured, Man City in the FA cup. They'll be able to keep the Wayne Bridge thing going and going.

Our Favourite ever ref (next to David Ellery) was in top form again this week in the Champions League.

Disallowed a goal... and gave a penalty. Why is this guy officiating high profile games?

[EJG1980]

It was a shocking display, the penalty thing was just the tip of the iceberg. Not sending off Olic (who went on to get the winner) for basically dropkicking a Fiorentina player's leg, for example.

The linesman was trying to outdo him though, not seeing that the last minute Munich winner was about two or three yards offside was criminal, especially as he was perfectly positioned.

Bet Wolves play a full strength side today </grumble>. No Alex and no Lampard but they've no Mancien who's being doing well for them I believe (reckon if wolves stay up, we'll sell him to them).

Our form is still variable, would be nice to get a confident win and a solid defensive display with no gifts of goals this time. If we go behind Man U (allowing for any games in hand), I don't think we'll get back in front.

What choice do they have now?

[Kieran76]

They also don't have a game until next saturday. It always smacks of desperation to me when folks are worried about what other teams are doing and the sides they are playing.

[abigsmurf]

Well, if we beat Wolves, that's 4 points clear.

Got to get past our bad form.

*edit*

Excellent, 4 points clear, we're in a pretty great position now

[Asylum]

Great day for the Blues yesterday, i'm sure most would have expected a win but credit to Wolves, could have easily scored a couple but Cech had a great game.

Bit of daylight now, just need to get some revenge on Man City next weekend after the loss to them away this season.
