HERE WE GO - STOKE AWAY!

After what seems like an eternity this summer, Chelsea take on Stoke in about an hour and I really can't wait to get started. There will be so much media attention on us and everyone is expecting us to fail. Reporters and "pundits" all over the country are looking at Chelsea wondering if we can really challenge United and hopefully today they will see signs that we can.
