The 7-0 was worse than it sounds. It was April, we were safe from relegation and Abdoulaye warmed up in his flip flops. I'd forgotten about the flip-flop incident let alone the result Anything other than a loss is a result at Stamford Bridge. Oscar, Mata, Hazzard and Torres FFS. Yeah but we have Geoff Cameron.

Shame to see Shotton back in the squad! Hope he does not come on.
If we attack and pressure their centre halves then we could get something here.
Come on Stoke!

If we can beat Cahill and Luiz who are wank defensively, we could do this.

We're not looking too bad at all! Solid defending, decent midfield link up and the best chances of the game so far!

5 shots, 4 on target in one half away v Chelsea!
Might not seem a lot to most, but that's a very decent return for Stoke!
Some decent football, just need to speed some of our play up. Looking fine defensively. Need to put more balls in the box...

Need to keep up the work rate in the second half and we might get something out of this. One minute of injury time in the first half, if Chelsea are not in the lead on 90 mins then there will be about eight minutes of injury time at the end of the second.
Goarrrn Stoke!
