Terry's been fabulous.

For me,its city's defense I commend so far. No-nonsense defense from all the back four has made life miserable for the chelsea forwards. At this rate,I predict a moment of magic from david dilva to drown chelsea. Both teams have been very lively with yaya toure being my standout performer

Not watching this match, can we get good updates here, or a link to watch it online

How can Malouda not score that? His left foot for goodness' sake.

borin match

Hope JT is not injured.

Malouda almost creating a disaster there.

Very tense match as a matter of fact. It could swing either ways and boring is the least adjective to describe it.

You've got to give it up to the disciple of shitty's back 4. Torres might not break his duck in this one. Malouda or Kalou most likely.

Chelsea is unlikely to score. City are defending absolutely professionally. They snuffed out a 50M pound striker with ease

Malouda has been utter shite. My lord!

It's amazing how we only see what we want to see in a game.
Chelsea unlikely to score?

They snuffed out a 50M pound striker. . . Every other team we've played since we bought Torres has done just that. . . Making it seem like a monumental achievement is something I can't understand.

and to think Drogba and Anelka are sat, roasting on the bench in a match of this magnitude.
See how Lescott just roasted Torres. . .smh!

Maybe u r right that every team u played as killed torres, but I stand by my ground that chelsea is unlikely to score. Yeah,ancelotti reads me well. Attack reshuffle,else NO GOAL

Finally, Torres off! I support Liverpool but its a damn shame what has become of him

What do you do as a manager with a player who's come with a 50M pound price tag, put him on the bench?

I don't think torres ever saw murder this close. They KILLED him the minutes he played in the second half.

And the first half?

Zhirkov coming on. He should have started.

David Luiz is the best thing  to happen to Chelsea defence.

Goal

In all honesty, imposing a top class act (trying to find form) on a manager is an activity even the most qualified cant work around. I only have respect for Ancelloti for having to make this decision of allowing abra see the error in this purchase.

Luizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

GOAL! Now that is a signing worth 50 milla

I will ALWAYS LOVE Luiz!!

Mario coming on. Hope he gets a red card without breaking anyone's legs.

It is unleashing from here on end

Now,chelsea can go on and win this game with as much as 3 goals.

Why? Are they not defending "professionally" anymore?

David Luiz - 2. Fernando Torres - 0

I have been watching Essien closely and he's been really really poor over a number of games. His decision making of late worries me like hell.

@ nateevs.
They are tired and as they fight for a point,the fresh chelsea legs will pounce
