Another setback for Wenger as his team, Arsenal are dropped to the third position after they lost to Bolton 2-1 in an thrashing encounter! A late goal from the Bolton player through the header swallowed all the hopes of the Gunners fans and they were unable to hold their 2nd position and they are now out of the title race. Their only hope for silverware this season was this competition…and now they have lost their hands from this also!
Meanwhile, Chelsea clinched an easy win against West Ham with Torres scoring his first goal for the club and that helped them to go up to the 2nd Position. Chelsea who had some bad moments on the field for some months now, finally managed to improve their run and its never too late as they are still partially in the title race!
After 3-months of signning a contract with the Blues, Torres finally managed to score his first goal for Chelsea this weekend against West Ham. The goal came from the Spainaird just after 8-mins when he was subbed in for Drogba! He admitted that this goal has lifted a lot of pressure off his shoulders and that now he can enjoy more time in the pitch! Torres insisted he had never got disheartened by the tough start to his Chelsea career, but admitted he owed the fans that goal.
Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti was very pleased and admitted that this goal will give him a new flying start! Chelsea managed to defeat West Ham by 3-0, and this win puts them above Arsenal at 2nd position, and now they need a win to equal the points with the Chelsea.
Final Score (1st leg): Man Utd 1 – 0 Chelsea
Man Utd scored through in-form Rooney’s goal. Giggs came to the end of the box and gave Rooney a low cross and Rooney along with the help of cross-bar guided the ball to the back of the net! Every Chelsea fan around the world hoped that Torres might score his opener for the club but he was denied twice by the Red Devils’ legend keeper. Man Utd showed up a good performance and there was no doubt about their victory as they consistently kept attacking the Blues. Although sometimes it was the Blues who got the chance but they were unable to convert those chances into the goals! Last 10-15 minutes was mostly controlled by Chelsea leading to constant series of attacks, but they all went in vain.
Man Utd will go to 2nd leg with an important away goal which will be very helpful for them to get them to the next round. Secondly 2nd leg will be at Old Trafford, so Chelsea will be in a lot of pressure there .
Chelsea’s season becomes worse as this competition in their only hope, so they need to tie the knots and get back to the game for their own good!

Liverpool director of football Damien Comolli admitted that selling Fernando Torres to Chelsea was a good idea! Liverpool sold Torres to Chelsea this January for £50million to Chelsea. Some thought that this move was a big mistake by Liverpool that time but Liverpool DOF thinks otherwise! As according to him, they were able to sell out-of-form for a huge money, and they used that money buying Andy Carroll and Luis Suarez. Which proved to be very beneficial for the Reds! And considering the current situation, he might be right as Torres is still goal-less at Chelsea! Torres managed just nine goals in 26 games for the Reds earlier this season.

Chelsea overtook Man City at Stamford Bridge as well as in Premier League Table! Liuz a 25-Million signing this January has been a star of the night again and proved to be a crucial signing for the Blues, as he scored the first goal of the game which gave Chelsea a confidence and lifted their game and then at last minute, Ramires struck another goal. Final score: 2-0! This result gave three points to Chelsea and they are now at the third position in Barclay Table!
Citizens started the game well and posed as a great deal of danger for the home side but after around 15 minutes or so, Chelsea woke up and started controlling the game. For last 10-15 minutes of the first half, Chelsea attacked consistently at the visitor's goal. Man City were without their best striker, Teves, as he failed to pass a fitness test today! Meanwhile Chelsea were without Drogba and Anelka, but they both were subbed in the game at 70th minute taking off Florent Malouda and Fernando Torres...which followed by many 'boooos' from the home crowd and they were certainly at the Ancelotti's decision for taking Torres off

UEFA announced the draws for the Champions League quarter-finals today and most debatable match of these fixtures will be off course of Chelsea vs Man Utd! It will be the rematch of Champions League final in Moscow three years ago where Man Utd defeated Chelsea in penalties! Chelsea have never had the European glory and the closest they came was that final where Man Utd clinched the win due to the very last penalty where Terry slipped and was unsuccessful to convert it into goal and it cost Chelsea their first ever UEFA Cup! So this time around they will definitely look to avenge Man Utd for that! But given the current run of the both clubs in this season, Chelsea will have to increase their form and really need to turn the tables cuz Man Utd is in terrific form right now!
Meanwhile, spurs are handed over the nine-time UEFA winners, Madrid, for the quarter-final! It will be a very hard job for them through them and given the current level of Madrid, Redknapp really need to apply his tactic correct and wise and beat Mourinho's Lads! Real Madrid have passed to quarter-final after around six years and this time they want to go all the way to the final

It was draws galore last weekend in the Premiership as five games ended in draws. Manchester United missed the opportunity to catch up with Chelsea after the Blues were held to a 3-3 draw as United was defeated by Aston Villa. Arsenal jumped back in the title race by beating Liverpool at Anfield and at this point you have to wonder how much longer Benitez will stay in charge of the sinking club. Tottenham also lost at home to promoted-side Wolves. All in all, not a good weekend for the big guns who will try to make up for it in midweek.
Stoke City – Wigan: 2-2
