They just lost 3-0 at home to a rampaging Chelsea. What a humiliation!!!

Watched it, loved it, in raptures. Amlmost up there with last week, but the clincher is that last week it was the mighty Gunners that handed out the 3 goal hiding :D .

Sigh.. Damn that Barthez..

Is there any hope for the Devils at all..? *moan of despair*

I didn't think Barthez was too much at fault this time - just simply as a team they were overpowered and outplayed. Oh, and the good news is that the Gooners are 1-0 up at Ipswich :D .

Mario Melchiot headed Chelsea into an early lead to put Sir Alex Ferguson's side on the back foot.

Villa conceded only their fourth goal at home when Ade Akinbiyi put Leicester ahead after 12 minutes.
