"Poor Wigan"

Christ that's harsh

Cracker of a goal though.

Not to worry, he supports Leeds. We have to expect him to make a mistake or 2 ;)

Erm... That wasn't a curler. That was one of those bullet shots that just flies hard and true.

Ahah, I've been away a while so I'll reply to this.. now.

Super Cresp. Super, super Cresp. After I'd written Chelsea off for a draw, he pops up and curls in what should be a contender for Goal of the season come May.

Let me get this straight - I hate Wigan. 'Little town club'? What? Which is why they spent about £4/5m on strikers? Everyone slates Chelsea for spending big, buying there way to the top of the league, but that's exactly what Wigan did last year. Which means I should hate Chelsea too, but hush - Wigan won't be competing with Yoo for the title at the end of the season.

Jewell is a good manager, though. I'm just hoping he forgets the tricks he learnt at Bradford.

2-1 wasn't it :-D

I'll give him one more week. Mainly because I've had to use my transfer to get Le Tallec out because he can't play the Pool next week. Welcome, Reo-Coker.

If Carvalho fails me again, I shall welcome Del Horno or Ashley Cole or Silvestre.

Hehe...I had to take him out of my team. I reckon they'll play Gallas instead until he signs a new contract...only then will Carvalho come back.

1-0 against Wigan, and suddenly you're all 'Chelsea r crap, hammers 4 title man u 4 kings'.

Balls to all that, Chelsea were slow to get going at the beginning of last season, and they're by far the strongest side in the Premiership. Give 'em a few weeks and they'll be racking up those 4-0's again. As soon as they start playing Carvalho to get me fantasy footie points. Balls to Wigan.

Edit: And as for playing poorly in the Shield....3-1 not good enough for you? As Lawro says, the best teams played poorly and still win. I'd love if Liverpool's bad days ended up in a 3-1 or a 1-0.

He only cost 100k. Bloody Chelsea but I can see them losing a few times this season.

If Cole plays like that again he'll probably not even be in the squad for the rest of the season.

And he'll go to bed without dinner, the silly little boy.

It wouldn't have been much.

Stick of gum perhaps.

Mourinho has blasted his players for their performance and said Wigan deserved to win and Chelsea were no better than them.

He then pointed out it was a "Wake up call without losing points"...

If their first game was against Man United or Arsenal it would be a case of 3 dropped points.

I hope Wigan stay up, I like them, they have character.
