That will be the stuff of legends and we are a twelth of the way there!
I like him. People are all "oh he's so arrogant". Yeah, what's the problem with that? Confidence is a positive, you know.

He was a genius last night.

he can, but he wont, coz smithy will be a legend. kezman and droggy will, like crespo and mutu be a passing fad for abramovich.
Chelsea should have been bringing in players proven at Premiership level. Duff and Bridge were great signings for them, and Lampard has been equally superb.

can you shut up about alan smith! :-) Drogba and kezman scored more goals last season than smith has scored in his entire premiership career. 2 goals doesn't make a player. Its like 2 exceptional goals and suddenly he's the best think ever and the first was a hit and hope. Yes he is pure commitment, yes he is english, no he's not the new ruud.
Here's your tenner.

They're still boring though ;)

Oi! Other Ash!
I said I'd watched two matches and both were boring, because its completely true. Never once did I say that Chelsea were boring.
The match last night, well, where can I start. Joe Cole, normally being a player that excites, was absolutely awful. Tiago had one moment of magic and that was about it. This Drogba looks a waste of money. Looks like Liverpool got the better side of the young French strikers.
From the two games I've seen so far, Chelsea just look a completely unisnpiring defensive side that are never going to concede many goals, but never play attacking football that people really want to watch.
Infact, with Joe Cole in that 'diamond' midfield, it really was quite exciting at times to see Lampard, Tiago and even Makelele zipping the ball in and around the Palace defense.
The best came from the Palace fans and players though, who, for the first-half at least, we all really up-for-it.
Every time Droga mucked-up. Each time Mateja Kezman failed to get his first strike for his new club. Every time a Palace player lunged-in (Alan Smith-like) to free the ball and bring than £80,000-a-week 'superstar' back down to Earth! :)
All for the same reasons I loved the Leeds-Arsénal FA Cup tie last season (even though, Leeds should've had a penalty and Arsénal won...).
