The Official Thread of Chelsea FC

> The Lampard goal was very, very close. The linesmen have no chance of getting them calls right. Watched in 10 times and a couple of times I thought it was over. It probably wasn't.
> Chelsea should've had a penalty too (And subsequent red card) but not given.

I'm a neutral fan & only needed one replay to see the whole ball wasn't over the line, Hoddle,lampard & Ancelotti were very honest about that "goal" after the game.

Thought it was penalty however a player also sent off would be very harsh! anyways that win was a huge lifeline for Chelsea as title race should have been over yesterday.

Never seen Lampard's interview but some managers should take a leaf from Ancellotti's book in terms of humility.
I'd say Mr Ferguson will be using every interview this week to mention the Luiz decision(s) at The Bridge and yesterday's decisions v Spurs. Just watch.

Ancelotti is a rare breed maybe pep at Barca another?

"Obviously, it gives Chelsea a major chance now and that's what happens when you get these decisions. They got one at Old Trafford last season so that's the worry now. But in terms of ability - a game at Old Trafford, the supporters will be ready for it - and so will our players."- Sir Alex Ferguson

As I've said many times. United keep repeating the Drogba decision at OT last year over and over and over. So much so that it becomes engrained that that changed the PL destiny.

Completly ignoring Macheda's hand ball!

I believe it's from the Mourinho School of Thought.

Mourihno's is more thoughtful. More theatrical.

Without Fergie & Mourihno football would be boring i find them fascinating TBH

It hit his hands, it rebounded of Cech and came at him in a split second. 

On another note, I don't think there is a conspiracy but Fergie is doing what he does best in the run up to a big game and putting more attention on the officials and taking the focus of his team.  He is probably fed up with the common ABU view that United get so many fortuitous decisions when in fact they get no more than any other side in the League.  I think that with so many camera watching every inch of grass these days that it is easy to flag up the high level of incorrect critical calls by officials, but I think what annoys most football fans is that nothing is appearing to be done to try and solve the problem.  The number of penalties awarded that shouldn't be (or vice versa), goals that are given that were not over the line, goals scored that were offside or goals disallowed that were legitimate is shocking and something needs to be attempted to try and tackle the problem and make the sport fair.  Or is it a case that people actually enjoy this element of the game?

Mourinho is more entertaining off the field than on the field. Shocking performance v Barca last week. I know it is about results but it was amazing to see Ronaldo fuming at Mourinho because of the negative tactics in the 1st half last week.

Ferguson may be a bully but his teams have always played good football.

On the subject of the title race if Chelsea can win next week you would fancy them to close it out even on GD. They will have a 2 goal head start and you can't see Newcastle providing much resistance.

I used to think 'decisions' were part and parcel of the game, but more recently, I think some form of '3rd referee' system needs adopted. This week should be about Messi, Ronaldo etc and then Drogba, Rooney, Terry and Vidic.. but it won't. It'll be a week of chatting s***e and whinging.
