Plus two extra Chelsea goals which were overruled for reasons I still don't know.

Tidy finish by Costa but poor Torres. Reckon it would have been harder to loop the ball over the goal from that distance than miss the net completely
Maybe Mourinho should try him in defence, those kinds of skills would be invaluable as a defender.

We're gonna be s**t at the back this season, too, if this game's anything to go by

Here's the goal from our 1-0 win over Wellington.
I think by winning both our games, we technically 'won' the tour.

Meh, a loss is a loss. He's glad he didn't travel for it.

Been way too long since we've seen a striker at Chelsea explode into space and destroy the back netting! Elite!Thank god for Costa.

That FA Cup victory was as hollow as it gets tbfSo much regret
The two European Cups on the other hand. Super. The reason he came.

laughing hard at milan. probably pretty close to full strength bar a few spots and they get utterly belted. 2 to jo jo, one each to navas, kelechi and sinclair. sinclair's was a bit of a peach too.

Its sad to see how far Milan have fallen, I know its only preseason but that's a club which won the champions league less than a decade ago.

When someone turns you down to play for Hull, I don't think there's much further you can fall..

You get that when Berlusconi wastes all the transfer kitty on bunga bunga parties, legal fees and bribes.

I didnt blame Chelsea for making him s**t but I still dont think he will look back and be happy with his decision.
He gave up the adoration of the Kop, a chance to play alongside Luis Suarez and in a team that was engineered and set up for him to score goals. Chelsea was totally different and he suffered because of it. Never had the love of the fans, never found his form and his confidence was shot.
At least had he stayed he could have found his confidence and the fans would have been on his side. Suarez no doubt would have set him up quite a few times too to keep the goals ticking over. Who knows what would have happened.
Id be surprised though, if I ever had a private chat with him, if he doesnt regret his move to Chelsea.

170 smackeroos a week and a champions league trophy would say otherwise
it's not like liverpool have gone on and won trophy after trophy since he left, then regrets would make sense. but while he hasn't prospered at chelsea on field, other than the cl trophy, his bank account certainly has.

Sure he made money. That's great. But I mean just look at him play. Look at how he played at Liverpool. He looks a broken man now, devoid of joy. At Liverpool it looked like he absolutely loved his job.
He didnt contribute much to any of Chelsea's trophies. Has scored * all goals.
It's not like he was on peanuts either at Liverpool.
