What a huge huge result. Time to start dreaming of the top 4 again?

If you stopped in the meantime. I never have, not this season when everybody above us seems keen to sabotage themselves.

Single - since Alonso scored the winner when we ended their unbeaten run that time.

Bunny - I think you may well have a point about the Dogbreath/Torres combo and would be fascinated to know Ancelotti's private thoughts on it.

Four straight wins, four clean sheets.

What a difference a King makes.

4 goals from Raul in 4 games Better strike rate than a certain 50 mill striker 🙂

4 in 5 isn't it?

Immense performance, immense result. SO satisfying to do that Chelsea after what happened at the end of January: that cut from Ming's goal to Torres's face was priceless.

But the most encouraging aspect for me was our tactical nous. I never thought of Kenny being a master tactician, but he completely out-thought Ancelotti in that game. We made a very very good side look impotent, and created enough chances ourselves to have won the game comfortably. Even at 0-1, I wasn't really nervous.

As for that Drogba-Torres partnership... I'm not convinced it's ever going to work.
[/quote]

Calm down Bunny. It is only 65 min. Only time will tell but Torres does make the Chelski team look unbalanced.

All this oooo were gonna get battered....... Bollocks. Chelsea have looked very fucking ordinary all season. I reckon we can get a draw at the least.
[/quote]

I'm very glad you were right and I was wrong, but Chelsea didn't look ordinary to me against Bolton or Sunderland. That was fantastic by us: we were miles better than the sum of our parts.

*Whistles* Told ye so ner ner

LFC haven't lost the last 5 games, won the last 4 games.

Doesn't matter, still a better strike rate.

[/quote] I suspect that Drogba will be off in the summer, probably back to Marseille
 
Fuck yeaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!!

With Suarez and Carroll settled, a pacy winger and some quality upgrades in the squad, we are going to wipe the floor with these blue scums next season with the king at the helm.

[/quote] Anybody think now it was Rafa's fault that Roy was so shit?
[/quote]

Nope.

It was Rafa's fault Rafa was so shit.

Long Live The King.
 
Big up to Kenny who has really turned things around, but also a very big up to Clarke who has transformed us at the back. We're rock soild at the moment, and a good defence wins you games.

Fucking immense though, I', speechless.

True, but time isn't exactly on their side. Drogba is 32, and Abramovich is impatient.

"It'd be disrespectful to Roy to say that things have improved at the club or in the team since he left so I'm not going to........ but obviously things have improved."

Brilliant

I am very nervous of this one, almost dreading it.
I really fear that Chelsea will win, maybe comfortably,
and Judas will score,
and all those chavs celebrating and singing his name,
and the headlines in the rags on Monday,

I really dread it all.

But deep dep down I have this gut feeling that we will be the ones happiest at the day's end.
I hope it's right.
[/quote] I wish my gut was telling me that we are going to qualify for the champs league

He also made clear the players hadn't been performing though.

Nice to see.

That trio of Dogbreath, Anelka and Torres worries me. All capable of scoring in big matches. One mistake from our backline is all they need.
[/quote]

2 old men and a crock of a kid that used to be a good player.

Be positive! (My God my new meds are good!)

Fuck me. I'm believing we can win 19 next season under kenny, I really am. This lager isn't even that strong.
[/quote]

Ah, come on! If we sign about 5 class players in the summer I might believe, but this squad isn't anywhere near good enough to win the league.
 
Next 4 - 10+ points?

12/2 Liverpool v Wigan, 15:00
27/2 West Ham v Liverpool, 13:30
06/3 Liverpool v Man Utd, 13:30
20/3 Sunderland v Liverpool, 13:30
