Is he injured or did he sleep with the manager's wife?

Eva sighting but Ramires is down. The Chelsea should have had a penalty given on two instances on the last sequence of play.

Mourinho rates Oscar higher in the #10 role. In addition, apparently Mata didn't do what he was asked when he came on in the game vs Basel. To his credit, Oscar has played well, his distribution has been excellent.

Still don't think Eto'o is the answer and wish we'd kept Lukaku.

The headscratcher is the continued deployment of both Hazard and Schurrle. Both excellent players, both like to play wide left and cut in on their right. Too many people trying to do the same thing (especially when Cole gets forward). Play one or the other imo.

And to their credit, Fulham are executing their gameplan (the exact same one they had against Sunderland) - force all the play wide, and use their height at the back to clear all danger. Chelsea don't have anyone big and powerful at the front, and so all the crossing comes to naught.

Halftime 0-0. The Chelsea did well putting pressure on at the end of a boring first half.

Of course not. I, of all people, understand your plight. I'm just making an observation. Some might consider it a slightly ironic one.

First goal should open the game up more, and let the midfield be more free-flowing

£50 on for Eto'o

Mikel has scored.

Fans chanting "shoot" whenever Mikel touches the ball now. Even in The Chelsea's half of the field.

Fulltime 2-0 The Chelsea.

Tweet from The Chelsea's official twitter. "CHELSEA GOAL! JOHN MIKEL OBI! JOHN MIKEL OBI! JOHN MIKEL OBI!"

Man Torres looked fantastic today. Why can't he be consistent! Not having Mata out there is such a waste. He should start every game, for FKs and corners alone. Another meh game from Hazard. Way too much individual dribbling from him and a lot of our guys in the first half. Looked like a completely different team in the second half. Still not confident in how we are playing right now though.

For whatever reason Luiz and Mata seem to be done in blue. I don't get it, but I admittedly know less about soccer than Mourinho.

In rrgards to Mata, I don't get it either. Is Luiz still hurt?

Those two should be starting every game if healthy.

Good result yesterday & nice to see Obi pop his goal cherry!

That's crossing the line Broseph Stalin. I watched that game at the AO bar AND stuck around to watch Panama and Honduras draw. I think there's actually video of this.

I've killed for less

Juan Mata is supposedly going to get to play tomorrow against Swindon Town. The Chelsea have to play a league one side for him to start. How much in favor has he fallen?

Just so you know, Tottenham will take that pesky Mata off your hands.

“I want to play Mata and Oscar, but Juan has to work and adapt to a certain style of play because I’m not ready to change Oscar’s position,” he said. “Juan has to learn to play the way I want to play, to be more consistent.”

I find JM's stance on Mata quite puzzling. Hiw can he not see gis value? The dude is nails & has been an assist machine. Hopefully he makes this transition into what JM wants. Fingers crossed.

You're not old enough to own the rights to golf clap. I think you're getting confused with The Clap which I'm sure you have in abundance.
