Shut up, Chelsea

                                                               

  • If you miss Special 1 TV (I'm On Setanta Sports) as much as I do then, no doubt, you're disappointed not to hear what Mario Rosenstock would have in store for Jose and the gang on the eve (and throughout) Chelsea's Champions League clash with Inter Milan. The real Special One has been a hit in Italy in more ways than one: touchline bans for poor behavior, maintaining Inter's strangle hold on the Scudetto, winning matches with only nine men. Chelsea has had few problems handling Italian competition in recent years but Mourinho's presence certainly changes the landscape of the tie. So long as the Blues can keep it honest in Italy and protect the Bridge in two weeks, their quality should once again carry them through to the next knockout stage.
  • I want so badly to be able to look at Ashley Cole and respect him, truly I do. But at this point it's safe to say that the guy just doesn't get it. Cole is facing the possibility of team punishment for "hurting the image of the club" by once again allegedly cheating on his mega-hot wife Cheryl Cole. In light of the infidelity streak within the club, Carlo Ancelotti has instituted tighter rules pertaining to how his players act off the field and Ashley may be the first to receive said punishment. Not that it really matter since A) he has all the money in the world and he won't play for the rest of the season anyway with his broken ankle. I guess I now have the option of posting a picture of Ashley or Cheryl. Hmmmm, what should I do?
                                                     

  • The jury is still out on whether or not Chelsea have their set piece defending back in form or not. A player who as been largely responsible for many of these needless goals against is Petr Cech. But it's hard to blast the guy after he plays like did against Wolves on Saturday. Cech made three fantastic saves en route to an away clean sheet and three opportunistic points in the wake of Everton's 3-1 defeat of United earlier that day. I hope this is a new found sign of confidence for a player who has seemingly lacked it in any consistent manner for arguable the last year and a half.
