Very true. Personally, I think Lampard should be dropped in favor of McEachran. He, for one, can thread a pass

I don't think Lampard is doing bad at all.... AVB needs to make a clear statement to the team. In terms of who's the man to lead them this season up top. I wouldnt bet on a starting lineup at the moment. Drogba needs to play, that's for sure!

Lamps slowed our play down and didn't even try to take a shot like he normally would. I love Lamps, but we need creativity and he can't really provide it. He's at that point in his career where he can't start every game.

Drogba is awesome, but we can't rely on him forever so I can see why AVB is starting Torres. All Torres needs is someone like Josh or Benny behind him, who can thread a pass

Indeed! I love you to death Frank but we need josh in the mid to provide a quicker pace & more creativity. Afterall, if Drogba doesn't get to start, then Frank you need to do the same every now & then

Hahahaha.... What are you smoking? Chelsea deserved this win more than Liverpool with their "lucky" win against Arsenal

I think we can all agree that both liverpool and chelsea deserved the win because they scored more than their opponants...

Touche Honestabe.  

Once he gets there, he'll get hurt. Lol?

We put enough pressure to deserve 2 goals, they were defending deep at times, well deserved for chelsea, shaky performance however

Don't think shane long deserves to be in the same sentence as the word "s**t" or any of its derivatives.... He's scored 2 in 2 against last year's top to teams so far.... Just saying...

Umm 2 good games don't make a player....  

Agree. I think wingers, Anelka/Malouda/Kalou was getting more service than Drogba/Torres

Yea, AVB should've started Josh

Found this, better than nothing Link: www.foxsports.com.au/Football/che-v-wba/video-e6fr...

Doesn't that word sound familiar to you as a united fan? Lucky LOL

Why are united fans so dumb don't they remember youngs goals last week?

Erm, You werent much better last week, ignorance...

He studied in the UK and was part of the Chelsea backroom staff with Mourinho

Sturridge is suspended. I agree with you though, he should start over kalou

I don't think torres did bad this game. If saw the whole game and torres wasn't getting any service today. Actually whole first half was s**t

Don't bother, he'll hate Torres no matter what

@Ddil2x  I watched the whole game and torres lost a lot of possessions.... Bench him and start drogba instead

Seriously

I think he doesn't want to take a risk of playing him at the start of the season, because if chelsea lost the games, people will blame him and say "why start an inexperience player? "

I'd start playing him when chelsea is in good position 1/3 or 1/4 way of the season

Risk.... We almost lost to Wes Brom bc the midfield wasn't creative enough to dish the ball to Torres or Drogba. So maybe Villas should "take a risk" and start Josh. & trust me it break my heart to say this bc I have much love for frank ~

The only person in midfield who seems alive is Ramires. He showed pace, strength and played a few good balls down deep

Yup

Alex could have easily tackled Long as soon as he lost the ball, plus you don't fiddle around when you're under pressure. He should've sent it to row z if he thought he was going to lose it

Alex has consistenly been making the SAME kind of mistakes over and over again. All the nutrients that need to go to his brain goes into his bulky ass body. Sure he's strong but his IQ is lower than a tree.

Why is David Luiz not playing?

Luiz is injured cheesenip (he'll be back next week I reckon). Luiz wouldn't be an upgrade anyways, he still makes stupid mistakes

I agree that ramires has bigger responsibility for the goal than alex. But ramires is a good player nonetheless

Alex position is last defender if tackled wrongly easily get a red card so he cannot risk it and Ramires pass was terrible, please watch the replay. But anyway hard fought win by Chelsea well done

Agreed suicide ball from Ramires even though he looks less clumsy this season
