Just such a great feeling to destroy this scumbag of a team.

Not sure if it's been mentioned in this thread but if ever there was an example to confirm that Chelsea are the pits of football it was how they attacked our area and refused to play the ball back to us when Verts kicked the ball into touch when they had a player down. Contemptible shits from top to bottom.

Agree first time chadli was Influential for 90 minutes though, we out muscled them. Against united there players fell over all game and I don't believe we believed we could beat them. Today however we believed we could win and played like it. We really took it to them. Townsend looked a lot better, Dembele when he came on against united he tormented them they could not deal with him, and again today he had a really good game. But I think he is so talented he is holding back. What I really like about our team we have fighters and passion which was lacking earlier in the season till we started play the accademy lads. With believe and a couple of players we could be a really good team. I watched united earlier vs stoke and Stoke should have won. We are building something special.

Great braveness for the penalty. Really important goal. The timing made the situation far more serious and apparent for Chelsea, which certainly played a part in the final result.

Townsend celebrates like I would if I was 9. To be fair I've never seen anyone look happier after scoring...

He gave the ball away constantly. I like walker and he has been out ages so I'm not going to do him down.

Can the tv watchers answer one thing for me. Chelsea's first goal. Was it legit? I was south upper and it looked like the ball went out of play. I also heard someone say Costa was offside.
Costa was offside when the first shot came in and he looked to deflect it onto the post, he wasn't offside when he scored. The flag should have gone up the moment he tried to touch it in the first passage of play.

Did the ball go out on the touch line or did they not focus on that?

Atmosphere should be excellent with it beng an evening game. Hope it helps our players believe a bit more. I'd love to see Mourinhos face if we beat them!

Got my wish.

Excellent performance. Cracking atmosphere. Mourinhos face. All checked off the list I asked for.

Great Christmas. Unbeaten in 4 and got most of the big teams out of the way away from home, bar United, (who we've beaten at their place the last two seasons) and Liverpool. Teams might start fearing coming to the Lane again. I hope so anyway. We need to be that clinical at home all the time. I can't remember the last time we scored 5 goals.

Should have been pulled back because Costa played at the ball from Hazard's shot. If he had remained stationary it was fine.
