Chelsea (DLWLLL) Injuries and Suspensions Norwich City: OUT: Jarvis; PROBABLE: Redmond Chelsea: OUT: Courtois; PROBABLE: Hazard, Zouma, Falcao Notable -Chelsea blow ass right now -Norwich blow ass slightly less at the moment, though they still blow ass -Poor Cesc is losing sleep over Chelsea's form -Chelsea are unbeaten in their last 11 matches in all competitions against Norwich City (W8 D3) -Chelsea have lost three league games in a row for the first time since October 1999 -Chelsea have allowed more shots on target against them than any other team from inside the penalty area this season (49) -Chelsea have scored three goals direct from free kicks this season. The rest of the Premier League have scored four between them Liklihood of Jose Mourinho blaming the referee for Chelsea's performance The last time I checked the REF-O-METER, yes, the liklihood is still very high. Liklihood of Ivanovic playing 100% Will Fabregas start? Beer pairing Well, that was a long international break. When you're losing and your team blows, these breaks take forever. Thanksgiving is right around the corner for us Yanks and now is the time to try some special beers we may not normally try throughout the rest of the year. Raise a glass and give thanks that we're not Arsenal fans.

Probably more fun than talking about this shithouse of a team.
My wife was surprised she could talk to me last week. Guess she will realize it may not last long.... Why couldn't the international break last longer?
Here is the script: Chelsea score within 15 minutes. EVERYBODY START DEFENDING HOLY SHIT PULL HAZARD PULL WILLIAN PULL OSCAR PUT IN MIKEL PUT IN CAHILL PUT IN RAMIRES HOLY ********ING SHIT ITS THE FULL MIGHT OF NORWICH CITY AGAINST US AT HOME WE MUST BRACE OURSELVES AND BORE THE LIVING ******** OUT OF EVERYBODY BECAUSE NORWICH IS A ********ING JUGGERNAUT THEY WILL SCORE GOALS IF WE DONT DEFEND LIKE OUR LIVES DEPENDED ON IT Goal to Norwich. Goal to Norwich. Post match press-conference: "I sleep well tonight. The person who should not be sleeping is the referee for missing 2 clear penalties. If I were his wife I would divorce him." - Jose Mourinho
If it's hard stuff you're after, I just had some cheap Buffalo Trace bourbon that didn't disappoint. Of course, after a few, it's all good anyway.
Good work Brock. This time of year it always warms my heart to see Celebration back on the shelves. However, desperate times call for desperate measures, so I'll be reaching deep into the cellar this weekend. Sipping a 2010 Central Waters BB barley wine at 10:00 a.m.? Hell yes, someone's got to step up to the plate this season and I'm up to the task.
I love Central Waters anything. Drink up. You'll need it since we're losing this one 2-1. I'll be at the bar in NYC so a steady supply won't be a problem for me.
I have a feeling that this is where we start to turn our season around..........................did I just say that!?
I think thats been said in most of the match threads thus far. Holding off on any optimism until we actually look good while getting a few results in a row.
I have spent several weekends either working, travelling, or both. I will be home this weekend. I just got a new TV, I have a way to watch the game, and I just want to see us win, damn it.
the problem with Own Goal is you never know when he's going to play until he does. otherwise he's invisible.
true, he never fails to capitalize on their mistakes. but i'd like to see a higher level of consistency.
Lol Jose Chelsea Lineup: Begovic; Ivanovic, Zouma, Terry (c), Kenedy; Matic, Fabregas; Pedro, Willian, Hazard; Diego Costa.
Why keep him on the bench then? Of all the things that needed adjusting in this team, Azpi was near the bottom of that list.
I'm pairing this one with a glass of Pepto bismol to get in front of the stomach cramps that chelsea induce.
