Its great we are putting in these performances and all our new signings havent even started yet

Hlebio · 24 Aug 2008 at 13:08

Walcott just isn't a winger. I wish Wenger would stop playing him there for the sake of development and play him upfront where he's looked a much better player.

Using an important position in our team to 'train' up a player is ridiculous. Wenger is taking this whole youth and development thing a little too far.

1-0 Deco

Awesome FK

What a goal, keeper was badly positioned though.

Cob · 24 Aug 2008 at 13:37

Gah! Just turned over and they're 1 up already

Beerbaron · 24 Aug 2008 at 13:37

quality goal

NokkonWud · 24 Aug 2008 at 13:37

Great free-kick, really rubbish wall and poor keeping. Why didn't the wall jump at all on that side?

NokkonWud · 24 Aug 2008 at 13:43

Chelsea not looking too clever defensively. A lot like Scolari's Portugal and Brazil.
Weird seeing Chelsea play such different football.

Wigan need Koumas to get onto Bosingwa as he still hasn't convinced me defensively.

Bah forgot this was on

Pigeon_Killer · 24 Aug 2008 at 13:49

Do the Wigan fans have any chants or songs of their own? All I can hear are boos when Chelsea players touch the ball.

The away support are making a mockery of them.

G|mp · 24 Aug 2008 at 13:49

Soooo many empty seats at the JJB, they really don't deserve PL football with fans like that :/

Loki · 24 Aug 2008 at 13:50

Hmm I have Deco as El Capitain in the Fantasy Football

I was thinking that. Then again, Wigan probably only have cheets in the crowd.

Ripper · 24 Aug 2008 at 13:57

Cech has parried two shots now and both times the ball has dropped straight to a Chelsea player

Wigan seem to be having a go though, i give it another 10 minutes until they're 3 down

Loki · 24 Aug 2008 at 14:01

I'm thinking this game could go either way, then again it could end up a draw

Pigeon_Killer · 24 Aug 2008 at 14:03

Wigan have really impressed me since going a goal behind and Palacios looks a fantastic player. Can see why Rafa likes him.

Edit: Wonder if the whoppers on MotD2 will pick up on Chelsea having no width like they did with Liverpool last night.

G|mp · 24 Aug 2008 at 14:06

Forgive me Father for I have sinned, I bought some trainers yesterday with Spurs on the back :/

He's brilliant. We were linked with him last season at the very end of the season too.
If anyone should sign him it should be Arsenal to partner Cesc.

Wigan have dominated the first half, against a better side Chelsea would be in real trouble. I expect Chelsea to blow Wigan out the water second half.
