Sign of end time? Mysterious figures at Chelsea stadium


A bit of news from the world of football...:-). 11 strange men in black robes (can you spot them in the pic above?) caused a stir at Chelsea's Stamford Bridge yesterday Sunday October 27th during the Chelsea vs Manchester City clash.
Goal.com reports that the hooded men, who had mysterious circles on their chest, were seen making curious synchronised movements at irregular intervals during Chelsea's 2-1 win, while they also stood in unison at random moments.
Situated three rows back from the corner flag at the Shed End, the gang could be clearly seen on TV cameras beaming pictures of the crunch fixture all across the world.

Mourinho: Scheduling will damage Arsenal-Chelsea cup tie



Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho believes the scheduling of Tuesday's Capital One Cup clash with Arsenal will deny fans a classic London derby.

While Arsenal defeated bottom-of-the-table Crystal Palace 2-0 on Saturday, Chelsea will head to the Emirates Stadium a little more than 48 hours after securing a dramatic 2-1 win over Manchester City.

As a result, Mourinho feels unable to select a number of his leading stars and suggested the fourth-round match has lost some of its potential luster, aiming his frustration at those who made the decision for a Tuesday game.

Ibrahimovic is the best player in the world right now - five things we learned from the Champions League

The striker produced a stunning display against Anderlecht, a rejuvenated Fernando Torres shines for Chelsea, Bayern can only beat themselves and racism reared its ugly head again

At the half-way mark in the group stage some teams already look home and dry, readying themselves for the knockouts to come. 

Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain and defending champions Bayern Munich stayed perfect with nine points from nine but there are some signs of discontent from the players in Bavaria.

Manchester clubs United and City did well to achieve narrow wins. Chelsea, inspired by Fernando Torres, won well away from home against Schalke, while Arsenal were dragged into a three-way battle in the group of death by Dortmund as Marseille were defeated by Napoli.

Lewandowski ruins Arsene Wenger birthday celebrations

Borussia Dortmund's Polish striker Robert Lewandowski (C) vies with Arsenal's German defender Per Mertesacker (R) and French defender Laurent Koscielny (L) at the Emirates Stadium, north London, on October 22, 2013
London (AFP) - Robert Lewandowski ruined Arsene Wenger's birthday as the Borussia Dortmund striker's late goal clinched a 2-1 win against Arsenal in the Champions League on Tuesday.
Arsenal manager Wenger turned 64 on the day of the game but Lewandowski played the party pooper as he netted a 82nd-minute winner at the Emirates Stadium to shatter Arsenal's 100 percent record in Group F and end their 12-match unbeaten run in all competitions.
The Gunners trailed to Henrikh Mkhitaryan's early strike, but France striker Olivier Giroud equalised before half-time.
