U21s v Middlesbrough U21s Live from 7pm: Hazard Charged!
COME ON CHELSEA

It is FArcical that the sweet FA has announced this afternoon that Eden Hazard will charged with violent conduct following Wednesday night’s kicking of the two-bob scroat, Charlie Morgan. Unsurprisingly, there are no charges relating to Swansea City for their failure to control their errant ball-boy. Maybe Daddy Morgan’s £42m might have something to do with it.
The sweet FAs statement reads:
“The FA have charged Chelsea’s Eden Hazard’s behaviour in relation to a Swansea City ball boy, for which the player was dismissed in the 78th minute, constituted violent conduct whereby the standard punishment that would otherwise apply was clearly insufficient.
“The player has until 6pm on Tuesday 29 January 2013 to respond to the charge.
“The FA will remind all clubs of their responsibilities in ensuring ball boys and other personnel around the pitch act in an appropriate manner at all times and will liaise with competitions accordingly.”
So Hazard gets charged on top of his automatic three match ban and Swansea City get reminded!
The U21s kick-off in about an hour (7pm) at Stamford Bridge playing Middlesbrough U21s and there will be LIVE updates on the board below, including team news from 7pm.
If the game is as half as exciting as the 3-2 Chelsea win at The Riverside, earlier in the season, then we should be in for a real treat.
This games wasn't half as good as the 3-2 win at the Riverside. it was better much better.
Boro took the lead, Chelsea equalised then went in front, 'Boro equalised and then inside the last ten minutes, Feruz took his chance from 20 odd yards out, the ball swerved and completely deceived the 'keeper who let the ball go under his body.
Blackman pulled off a superb save at the end, his only one and Chelsea won 3-2.
We really have some talented players - Saville, Nditi and Feruz with his pace will always score goals. From four chances he scores two.
Why oh why are these kids not coming through especially after the millions of pounds spent on the facilities at Cobham Halls.
