Anelka on the bench. Good. Ruthlessness from CA.

Pub time for me.

Nicolas Anelka is not in the Squad confirmed knee injury.

Unreal. Chelsea's worse run of form since they where formed in 2003.

Looking at the fixtures Chelsea will be expecting to win the next five league games & if they hit form i can't see them losing again untill March.

P.S Abramovich has little patience so don't be surprised all this will be done under new management.

I will bet you as much as you are willing to lose that Chelsea do not win their next 5 league games.

Too hungover to analyse, but once more Essien was a passanger. To be fair he had Kalou, Malouda and a few others on the bus too, but the Ghanian- if we had back up to come in- should be benched for his performances and attitude.

Terry, Cech and Ivan aside the rest were pitiful!

Looks like Kakuta starts v Bolton.

Kaka's agent has just said that he is 90% certain that Kaka will join Chelsea in the summer!

Given the 'mare he's experienced since joining Real he'd prob even go to Liverpool at the min if they came in for him...

Out Mikel,Ferreira, Kalou.. in Bosingwa,Anelka & Ramires surely strong enough to beat Bolton at home?

I am waiting for this inightfulness as well from the prophet.

A good result for the Chels on Weds night, but still much, much improvement required. The first 50-55 mins was more of the same old, however the last 30-40 mins were much better.

One of the hallmarks of that period was the effectiveness of Chelsea's middle 3. Lampard spraying the ball around and opening the game up, Essien showing the power plays he can, and MOTM Ramires working box to box.

The net result is that Sunday's game becomes pivotal. Two wins on the bounce signals a possible return to form. However the downside is a 5th booking to Ivanovic which opens the centre half problem once more!
