Chelsea 4 - 0 Wolves

The blues systematically dismantled a Wolves side who looked to have set their stall out to contain potential damage rather than achieve any great upset. I was tweeting from the game so rtahert than a full match report which you can get here from Sky, here are my tweets.

  1. The blues are 1 up inside 5mins as Malouda cracks one home from 30yrds on the end of a quick counter attack
  2. Essien gets a 2nd as he drifts in unmarked to head home from a Malouda corner. 2-0 with 11mins on the clock
  3. Ess gets his 2nd & Chelsea's 3rd with a daisy cutter down the middle that goes right thru Hennessey in the Wolves goal. Showboat time.
  4. Cech gets down to his left to make a superb save on 39mins. The Wolves fans spend the next 6mins ole-ing every pass. Its 3-0 at half time
  5. Inevitably its 4-0 after some gr8 hold up play from Anelka the ball is laid back to Joe Cole whose shot slips in the far post
  6. The kids are on - Borini, Kakuta and Matic have replaced Kalu, Anelka and Malouda as the Blues are turning this into an exhibition
It reallky was that easy but great to finnaly see Kakuta who looked pretty good (understatement)
Now off to Porto and the sall task of finishing top of our CL group
Come on you Blues

The blues is in good hands..

Just as Joe Bonamassa hits the mainstream so The Times ran an article this weekend on another little know blues guitar virtuoso - though this time from the Isle of Man rather than upstate New York.

Davy Knowles has been kicking around for a while now with his band Back Door Slam but he has a new line up and a new album, called Coming up for Air, produced by Peter Frampton so he may just be about to break through big style. Take a look at the performances below and tell me what you think

Davy was just 20 when 'Come Home' below was promo'd back in 2007 but even then he was displaying the vocal and guitar licks of a well seasoned blues man



Saving Myself is going to be on the new album



Finally, a cool version of Messing with the Kid which brings back memories of the late great Rory Gallagher
