I could be wrong here but hasn't Terry been out for a couple of months when Chelsea were winning and now they have hit the rocks they all of a sudden have a defensive crisis?

You could be right there. The two centre backs that are currently playing should be more than capable with the squad Chelsea have.

I've never gotten the Chelsea hatred... or the sudden ManU love in that everyone seems to suffer from these days, I can remember season after season of ManU carrying all before them and now Chelsea have two season and suddenly everyone rounds on them... it's not that i dislike ManU their playing some lovely stuff this season, but dont get the viseral hatred the same folks who hated Man U a year or two back now have for Chelski.

As for the Chelsea back four... they miss Terry no doubt, but Carvaliho has been vgood for them IMHO and to be honest they've really missed Cech, Hilario really isnt up to being a prem gk for a protracted period of time.

I think it's mainly because of Mourinho that everyone hates them now, he does talk rubbish. Terry was doing some light training today, that's impressive just a day after an operation.

I don't hate them, I'd rather them win the title than Man U anyday

[MC Prussian]

And I'd rather see somebody else win the league once again - like Liverpool for instance.
