Just remembered somerging funny

[jimbolala]

Anybody else remember maureen complaining when we beat them with crouch up front. He made it sound do unfair that we had someone who could out jump his defenders. Haha. He complained that we took advantage of his team's lack of height hahaha

[Extraordinary Swindle]

"Crouch was too tall and Kuyt too strong." There was also something about Rafa not being stupid, and Mourinho not being able to work magic.

 

Terry and Carvalho were out and I think it was Cech's first game back after his incident, they lined up with Essien in central defence and Mikel as the anchor man in midfield. Crouch put Kuyt through after 3 minutes and Pennant scored with an impressive volley soon afterwards. Other memorable were Robben trying to tackle a player and hurting his ankle, he had to go off and walked to the dugout - Mourinho was furious with him.

 

Afterwards Sky were trying to blame the head guard for restricting Cech's view but Mourinho set the record straight. I don't think he was complaining about us, he was well pissed off at his players because without Terry, Carvalho and Makelele they weren't up for it psychologically and it was also clear Cech was a shadow of his former self. Abramovich had refused to sign a defender the week before as well so he had plenty to be unhappy about.

My favourite Maureen whinge was the Luis Garcia goal. "how can they be in the final when they have only scored half a goal?" and I remember thinking: ah but Maureen, it's still half a goal more than your bunch of prima donnas managed so we still win.

[Foxtrot]

I remember him calling the phantom goal and the goal that never was. Half a goal is priceless!

The Cisse chance, along with the goal, the Gudjohnsen chance and the Lampard freekick is about all I can remember of that match.

Re: the 6 minutes.

 

Did Jimmy Jumps not run on the pitch?

[schmuckdonald]

I like the fact that Townsend mistakes Gallas for Geremi. The daft racist.

He said he knew a month before the game that Bellamy wouldn't start.

That was also the game where Riise nearly broke the cross bar from just inside the Chelsea half. We should have had a penalty from that as well, as Crouch was hauled over in the area to stop him getting the rebound.
