Just shows that these people are about 2 seasons behind any development.

That's why "big boot", "full of huge foreign mercenaries" and "good manager, that Coyle" gets traipse out ad infinitum.

And the classic: "They're a big threat from set-pieces, Bolton..."
Have we even scored from a set piece this season yet?

My feelings exactly. Same mentality from some City fans I talk to at my gym, any time they bring up Bolton they express their surprise at why we're struggling, because that Jaaskelainen is one of the top keepers and with Kevin Davies up front we can beat anyone

Not too sure about this one tbh. I think the fact that we've got Ryo Miyachi on the left wing instead of Petrov suggests we don't have an out and out right winger in the team.

I can see where he's going with the Pratley being in the squad, he knows Chelsea like to run at us and he's put one of our best athletes in the team, but I don't think its the right decision. I'd've much prefered an inverted Petrov on the right wing coming in attacking with his left boot similar to what Miyachi is doing on the left wing.

We've always got Eagles on the wing but I think him and Petrov are a bit too hollywood for this game.

When did Kevin Davies cause Chelsea any problems? We've had him in the team since 2003 and we've only ever come away with 1 win and about 2 draws. We've been pidgeonholed. As much as I hate to say it Kevin Davies isn't a Premiership quality forward anymore. It's not to say he's not got anything to offer Bolton anymore but it does suggest we should be looking elsewhere to replace him.

As for hte scoring from set peices.. Klasnic off a corner after a flick on by one of the defenders.

I fancy Mata to score. Dunno why.

Also of note: if the R was an N Drogba would be an anagram of Bogdan. That's vital seconds of your life you will never get back.

Stoke & (S)KD .... but really that shouldn't count.

All our efforts wasted.

Nailed on for a send-off and 5-0 now.

Don't know about you guys but i've written this one off as 0 points. Anything we get here is bonus points and would be a fantastic achievement.

As for the we haven't had a red card for a while. I reckon we might depending on how long it stays as 0-0. Only one player I reckon will get it, Wheats.


Oh how I wish we still had Sturridge.
