Just disappointed to not have 3 with so many missed opportunities.

Now gotta listen to the Arsenal smack for a few days

I think that break did play a small role. Torres was awful and to top it off whined like an insufferable bitch all match. Hazard missed his chances but his touches and passes are excellent. I also can tell Frank is just not up to snuff. He is having the same issues Stevie G has; playing deep and not contributing and lack of sharpness. Tough to see a Chelsea legend start losing it but we need to phase him out and move forward with a team with more pace and energy.

The result was disappointing but grabbing a point at Loftus Road works for me. QPR obviously made some big moves in the transfer window. Park is a real player and hell Julio Cesar is still legit as hell. We will move on and learn from this...hopefully. We have a looooong way to go to capturing another epl crown.

QPR always gives yall trouble. Can't win them all. Regroup for the next one. See thats how you have friendly banter with opposing fans.

I was happy to see Torres come out which is fairly uncommon for me. Hazard definitely had great passes, just wished we played it through him more at the end rather than long balls every possession. Lampard definitely has slowed and that pains me o watch. Sad to say but I agree on phasing him out. And Mikel too for that matter, not a big fan. Excited for Oscar to take over Lampards role late this year or next.

Point is always good, especially when we're already on top. Cesar looked on top of his game and is the reason for most missed opportunities.

Overall looked good, just not the final step to put everything in.

Again, if we have championship aspirations we can't be satisfied with a point against teams like QPR.

Thank God Falcao doesn't play for QPR. We would have lost 6-0.

Randy, we didn't play well and got a point in the West London Darby. Relax, it isn't the end of the world.

Again, it's not really the result as much as the total lack of effort and desire, especially toward the end of the match.

This. Although they're effort sucked today, especially Torres, you're gonna have off days when everyone just plays badly.

Also, I give QPR more credit than most people around here I think. They're not a top of the table team but they've also got some decent guys there who can really play.

yall have all pretty much echoed my sentiments. Showed flashes of great movement and passage of play but couldnt put the finish on it. QPR always plays us hard for some fricking reason and the new signings make them even tougher.

I feel like we were on our heels for a good chunk of the game in the middle, which I didn't like. But overall the back line played well.

Torres is still just so hit and miss. He made a couple very nice moves then either turned to his shitty left foot or gave the ball away. Hazard still looks terrific, despite missing the sitter. Can't really complain on him.

Still don't know what to make of Mikel. Hopefully we'll see Romeo against Juve and at least get a glimpse of what we're missing

It's a derby for them. For y'all, it seems not so much so.

Reading more shite of Torres crying after the QPR game when he "stormed" down the tunnel after being substituted. He's such a drama queen.

Chelsea will buy Fellani and a new striker in January. Mark my words.

Literally crying? He was definitely being a wank on Saturday.
