Yea good for us and to be fair he has played his heart out for them for years.

GavRedKing

Drogbas international record is impressive, 130 odd games and 60odd goals, I think anyway, its nearly a 1 in 2 record.

GavRedKing

Just checked

104 games
65 goals

Johner

65 in 104 gav.

And Cech was and is a much better keeper than Reina, not even worth arguing about.

GavRedKing

Some record, even if its against the African teams mostly, its still impressive.

Celtic back in the UCL :eek:

You know you're bad when you lose 6-1 and go through on an error by some officials not realising a guy wasnt eligible.

You coulsdnt make this stuff up, is that the 2nd time theyve got through by default?

Also, news of Cech being sold seems to be gathering pace, if it hasnt happened now it wont happen until January I'd say, although we've 3 games before the transfer window closes so Jose might have made up his mind by then.

Hope Warsaw win on appeal, or Celtic go out in the next round. Tired of Celtic bumping Chelsea off UCL group stage telly coverage! :mad:

peteeeed

Team for first 45 game v Fenerbahce: Cech; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry (c), Azpilicueta; Fabregas, Matic; Schurrle, Oscar, Hazard; Diego Costa.

Courtois has a minor injury and isn't being risked.

kev1.3s

Well courtois has only had 45 mins hasn't he? Not really enough to make a proper assessment. However the competition is something that Cech seems to be relishing.

Johner

Really looking forward to this now after seeing the team.

LightningBlue

Terrible decision by the linesman. Oscar was onside.
Great through-ball by Hazard.

Should be 1-0.

Oscar and Schurrle have started well.

peteeeed

Poor decision by the linesman, Oscar well onside

Johner

What a save!

BarcodeMuncher

Annoying referee

LightningBlue

What a ****ing save by Cech!

The competition is definitely bringing the best out of him.

The ref is awful. Every 50-50 decision is going to Fenerbahce

Johner

OMG Costa. Wow

peteeeed

Costa what a goal

peteeeed

4 defenders on their arse

LightningBlue

Brilliant goal by Costa. We have our centre forward!

Duck Soup

Quality and hunger.

Johner

**** off Bruno Alves.

peteeeed

Oooooops costa nearly broken in two , disgrace

BarcodeMuncher

Disgraceful

Duck Soup

Twattish by Alves.

LightningBlue

Bruno Alves is a filthy git. That's a disgraceful tackle in any game. Utter filth. :mad:

Players have got 5-10 game bans for less :mad:

Nice finish on the rebound of the freekick by Ivan.

peteeeed

2-0 Ivan

~Rebel~

Very good free kick...keeper should have done better, but great power and accuracy on the strike.

LightningBlue

Great to see we have some set-piece takers this season.

Duck Soup

I'm lost. Why did Matic get booked?

Panthro

Will someone PM me in relation to stuff.

peteeeed

LightningBlue

Drogba's getting a nice reception :pac:

Wonder has he got a Galatasaray flag with him?

Johner

Salah really has bags of ability. Can't help but think that he's always going to be very frustrating though, would absolutely love to be proved wrong.

Johner

Team to face Besiktas: Cech; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Filipe Luis; Fabregas, Matic; Ramires, Willian, Hazard; Diego Costa.

LightningBlue

Hazard playing as the No. 10. Should be interesting.

Edit: He's lining up on the left wing as usual, Fabregas is behind the striker. Stupid graphic.

peteeeed

Costa looking very sharp

Panthro

Great to see a striker who's looking to score

LightningBlue

Another good effort by Costa. He's creating some great chances for himself.

Panthro

G'wan Demba, and thanks again for the goal against Liverpool!:D

LightningBlue

Can someone please ban Willian from taking corners. Never beats the first man.

Johner

Ah Cech.
