I'd already made a concerted effort to go out to the pub less (need to save nuggets for Oz, innit?), then I had my funny turn which explains those numbers... #aberration

This was interesting to read, not often you hear from a footballer with a sense of perspective;

Chelsea will not go unbeaten this season and will very probably not reach the record level of points that they achieved in 2004/5.
To see why, look at their last six league matches.
ManU (H)
Arsenal (A)
Palace (H)
Liverpool (H)
WBA (A)
Sunderland (H)By the time Chelsea reach those last six games, one of two things will have happened. Either, they will have faltered and already lost a match or, if they haven't they will have picked up the trophy or be about to pick it up.
If the former, they will not be unbeaten That is obvious.
If the latter, they will face half a dozen or maybe fewer games against teams that will either be fighting for Champions League qualification or fighting relegation when Chelsea will have either nothing to play for or, more seriously, will be focusing on the Champions League and/or FA Cup.
Any of these taken now and Chelsea would fancy a win or at least a draw. At that stage in the season, a defeat is highly likely.

Either you are suggesting that Arsenal will be that team or your confidence in Wenger has truly fallen through the floor. I think that ManU and Arsenal will both be in the mix. Liverpool are a less certain proposition so long as they cling on to Gerrard.
Arsenal away is the toughest game we have remaining having played all the historically major teams away already (other than Tottenham and one could question whether they fall into that category anyway).

Getting your excuses in early Joe?
We've been rotating the squad for our cup games too. It just so happens that we have some exciting and talented young players grasping any opportunity to break into our first team. Mascarell has done really well since the Fulham game and Russell has carried on some great form after being on the fringes from the beginning of the season. It's just unfortunate you don't have Torres to accommodate in your squad this year.
Can't wait for Xmas drinks... ;)

Southampton weren't in the list

Unfortunately was in the car last night and caught some of the wanking-over-Rooney discussion. Utter shite - blowing smoke up his arse: Great captain, brilliant for england, up there with Charlton, Lineker, Greaves.
Barely a mention of how staggeringly inept he's been (amongst many others) in actual tournaments.
Turned over to Jo Whiley for some proper dadmusic.

If 'down with the kids' is referring to Damian's height, well I think that is terribly rude, and frankly out of line. I would never make a joke like that at his expense. Ever.
