Fair comment and all respect to Lampard, but I'm not sure Derby getting a thrashing counts as news anymore. I do like this painfully honest assessment from Paul Jewell though: "It was a world heavyweight champion against a lightweight. I spent the night squirming in my seat. They are a great team, and we are not."

Can’t see a post on Chelsea’s 6-1 demolition of Derby and Frank’s achievement of becoming the first Premiership midfield player to score FOUR goals in a game. 17 so far this season and 107 career goals for Chelsea to date.

But this is The Offside – never like to write good things about Chelsea!!!

I can think of loads of other clubs to write bad about.

If there was a penalty shoot out between England and Mexico to see which curse was worse, Mexico would lose

I wonder if Montolivo was picturing Rooney’s face at his penalty…lol … Great night for Frey (although he had his hand in the first goal)
