Courtois interview (Not sure if anyone has posted this) with a Spanish radio, makes some comments on his future.
"At the moment I am here just for one season, but I wouldn't have problems to spend a second one. Then I would like to play for one or two years in an English club like Fulham or Tottenham"
Interesting that he mentions Fulham and Tottenham as destinations for 1 or 2 years after this season, more interesting is thinking about the plausibility of it. Schwarzer isn't going to go on forever and Friedel is a stop gap for Spurs, seems like Courtois has his future planned out.
It would benefit him a lot to play a season in the Premier League, seems like he is committed long term to Chelsea but he knows with Cech still around his chances will be limited.
We would have lost about 4-0 last season - excellent from AVB - CA was always too predictable and lacked a plan B (and C,D which was needed today).

Yeah, that happened about 3 times with Luiz - I think Warnock must've told them to keep him quiet in the box, although he's not one of our biggest threats in the air, but that's the only only thing I can think of...well either that or they were doing it to try and fire Luiz up, so that he got sent off.
Watched the highlights again, I thought Foy got most of the decisions right. It was clear penalty and awful decision making from Luiz. You can argue for Bosingwa red card, but had it not been given you could have argued that he deserved red. Drogba's was no brainer.
Only decision he got wrong was Chelsea should have got a penalty.
Only decision lol, its a pretty big one. Plus he handed out cards like they were freebees for everything. Couldnt handle the pressure of the game simple as that.
Seen refs missing penalty calls a lot. It is nothing new.
[/COLOR]Petr Cech attempted and completed more passes than all QPR players yesterday.

Lampard should have had a penalty though there's no doubt about that. He was in front of his man and he started going down before Cole crossed it, I can't see why that wasn't especially considering Foy sent off Bosingwa for a 50:50 race 'tussle' with Wright Phillips.
So good you said it 3 times?![]()
Lol, my internet went down so i didnt know i posted it.

One thing i have been notified of on another website. Sundays ref (Chris Foy) is a self acclaimed Everton fan (Chelsea's next opponents). After sending off two and booking another 8 Chelsea players 3 first team players will now miss Wednesdays clash with Everton and it could have been alot more. I think the FA dropped the ball on that one.
Excuses already in for when we gub you thenlol
We dont need an excuse we got a torrid record at your pad lol we are expected to lose.
We're pretty much like a wasp around a picnic. We like to irritate the **** out of opponents and make their experience miserable as **** lol. Tbh though it's got 0-0 written all over it and a pen shoot out.
Fully expecting a lot of changes, with the important matter of Man Utd next Saturday. Saying that, the beast that is Ross Barkley could do a Dan Gosling and break some hearts
I genuinly hate playing at Goodison, i heard Lamps in an interview once say its the best away ground he has played at. For me as a Chelsea fan the away fixture with you is up there with Utd, Arsenal, City and Liverpool in terms of toughness. Yer i expect a few changes for us too, i rekon the likes of Bertrand, Oriol, Lukaku, Alex and Kalou to play.

Yeah well, as long as he doesn't leave on a free like Dan did I'd be chuffed if that happened.
//Edit - I wouldn't mind a repeat of last season's FA cup match at the bridge either.
Drogba's sending off was crystal clear. Anyone would have given red except Atkinson. And I can see why he gave red for Bosingwa. There was no way Terry would have stopped SWP.
