Cole Saves Chelsea

i hate 'watching' match report games. when colchester scored first at the 28th minute, i thought for sure that chelsea's losing streak was going to continue, and didn't think they could take on Barca with another loss under thier belt.

but thank god for joe cole, subbing in at the half and delivering two excellent goals (well, i imagine them as excellent anyway). now let's hope the momentum takes on Barca...

speaking of Barca, i hear that they are already complaining about the pitch at chelsea...perhaps they are preparing an excuse when the lose?

This is a very important week for us - this game has put us in the last eight of the FA Cup and we have a chance on Wednesday night to take a step towards the last eight of the Champions League. We also want to get back on track in the League before we go away on international duty so we want to get a good week behind us. Now we will go into the Barcelona game full of confidence. We have got the Middlesbrough defeat out of our system and rested some key players - we are ready for the big one.

go joe go
