Things are looking bad for Chelsea, they're in real dire straits. Let's have a look at the FACTS:
- OUT of the FA Community Shield in the FIRST ROUND!
- OUT of the MLS after drubbing by all-stars team!
- YET TO WIN in this season's Champion's League campaign!
- STRUGGLING in this year's FA Cup!
- In 6 games this month, they have only collected 3 (THREE) Premiership points. That's RELEGATION form! (Though luckily for them not yet Sunderland form.)
- Influential German captain midfielder OUT injured for some time.
- Squabbling amongst defensive players.
- Old (old) chairman doesn't like them!
I think you will agree that the writing is on the wall, the fat lady has sung, and Elvis has left the building regarding Chelsea's season.

1 - Manchester United are angry. They REALLY REALLY want to win this season.
2 - Everybody wants to beat Chelsea this time and that will work in Man U's favour.
Don't rule out Villa, seriously. Arsenal are also dangerous, and Tottenham will be in the shake-up for the Champions' League placings.

2) They have yet to play in this season's Champion's League campaign
3) The FA cup hasn't started this year.
4) They've only played 2 Premiership games.
And need I remind you that Liverpool only got 1 point from their first Premiership game of the season, whereas Chelsea got 3 from harder opponents.

But your last point is RUBBISH!!!!!! Chelsea won at home against a 10 man mid-table team. LFC travelled away to a newly promoted team very high in spirits, on the back of playing two competitive games already this season with an eye on another crucial game in 3 days time. Sheff Utd under these circumstances were by FAR the harder team and I'm happy LFC got a point.

Originally posted by Freddie2006I know we didn't play great - we've got a lot of new faces. I'm saying the Blades were the ones in high spirits with nothing to lose in their first match - they were expecting to get beat. LFC were the ones with the pressure - half way through a CL qualification tie very much in the balance and expecting to put up a strong challenge for the title. I don't think it's a surprise that they didn't win, and I do expect them to improve greatly in a short space of time.

Originally posted by ElleEffSeeeBenitez experiments are more of an issue to worry than Liverpool's current form. I bet that line-up raised a few eyebrows.

Originally posted by PalynkaEh? Okay Aurelio was slightly dodgey but other changes during the game were forced on us by injury. Alonso wasn't played, having been saved for Haifa, and he was man of the match in that game.
