On the Eve of the new Season...

[Barcelona]

apparently no one in Chelsea is able to score these days, I thought Sevchenko, but was wrong.
 
 By the way, this coming weekend the game in Spain, Barcelona - Real Madrid. Unfortunately, Messi got injured on Saturday so the game is now quite open.

thanks for the heads up, i'll have to set my dvr
 
 i cant believe with all that spending, chelski basically relies on one forward

What about the 30 gazillion quid scum shelled out for Torres? He couldn't find the net either...   :p

[godsshoeshine]

When it was over I was quite happy Ryan Babel didn't play the entire 90 minutes.  He would have found the back of the net for sure.
 
 Mank, you were one Rooney gaff and one Peter Cech gaff away from correctly predicting both socres.  Nicely done.
 
 And in case you all missed it, Terry broke three bones and is out for nearly two months.  No Drogba, no Terry, no Essien, no Kalou, no Mikel, no Makalele (oh wait, France moved his family to the mainland, nevermind).  That's a team in trouble through February.

I have absolutely no, none, zilch, zero sympathy for them..with their squad they could put out two premiership teams, both in contention for champs league spots, so if they can't sort their egos out and start playing then tough titty!!!
