Chelsea vs Celtic 1 - 1

At Stamford Bridge with a virtual first team out.

We beat them 3 - 0 at Celtic, with a reserve side plus Brown and Scholes.

The title is ours.

Ha ha

Chelsea still looked like that overloaded side they were last year. Just a battering ram of star players to me. They don't play fluent or attractive football even with Sheva and Ballack

Chelsea are having a BAD pre-season.

I think they're going to struggle to accommodate all their midfielders this season

It was very strange watching them though they don't seem like a team however much they boast about their team spirit. Have you noticed how much they go on about it?

true.. always a sign isn't it...

I think its probably down to Mourinho, Terry and Lampard all of whom are twats

holy crap. does no1 watch football anymore? Virtually first team? Yeh.. NO! Also we'd only pplayed feyernoord the day before!! 3 games in 4 days. This was all for fitness and getting them back to speed. Seriuosly the things petty fans will do to get one over chelsea.

haha.

the community shield should give a better indication but not definitive

correct me if Im wrong, but was that not Celtic's second team, playing your 2nd team ?

But Strachan said the biggest lesson from the night was that "their second team is far better than our second team". from BBC.

You also fail to mention that while this is our 3rd friendly, Celtic hae had at least 10 games - including competitive league fixtures.

Also this wasnt our first team, unless José is actually planning on dropping Essien, Ballack and Shevchenko for a whole half of each match.

In 3 different countries...

When we play the Shield, well have played 4 games in 4 different countries in a week.

& Man United's second team is much better than there first team.

It was nothing to do with the result it is the last few matches that Chelsea have played they seem very distant.

...that quote was referring to the ManU match.

EDIT: also worth mentioning we totally dominated Celtic, outplayed them everwhere. Lacking sharpness is all.

No, I wondered what the feature was.

That Strachen quote is poignant = I'd have never have guessed before that Chelsea's seocnd team was better than celtics second team

Shame your shite wen it comes to playing real games. Remind me of the norwich united result? Or the sunderland result wich basically handed us the title.

Christ no need to get personal, it was just a comment based on the two games ive seen

explain how that was personal!! I just commented that preseason games mean nothing.

lol

i.e you took it as an insult and attacked United.....

but that was in retaliation to calling us a distant club. also it was in response to someone further up saying chelsea might stuggle this season....

i reckon chelsea will stuggle this season cos their vast array of central midfielders will get upset and if gallas isnt sold he could disrupt your great team harmony but if he is that would leave with just bridge who does not look great. im also interested to see how scheva does cos i dont think he'll do well and is no one near 30 million. They can still win it but it will be very close and by no means certain.

I cant believe tickets were £40 its a disgrace. What was the attendence cos i saw lots of spaces.

24 thousand.. despicable really.
