EPL - Chelsea vs QPR, Fernando Torres
       
       There are several things in my mind that would have caught the headlines. The fact that Chelsea win their first London Derby this season in a 7 goal thriller game, the fact that our first goal came in the 46th second, but nothing could have made Chelsea fan's smile more than Torres' first hat-trick for the Blues!

       4 goals in 24 minutes may prove to have crushed QPR's spirit and convinced the Blues with a comfortable victory in this London Derby. The first 24 was a fast-paced one and the spirit we showed was remarkable. After that the tempo slowed as neither team had any urgency to score again. But in the second half, Torres' third goal really brings up the crowd at the Bridge. Certainly going to be in the headline, and something to cherish for the whole club, fans, and especially Abramovich (he was joyful after the hat-trick).

       Many expected a tight derby, after we played Barcelona FC in midweek and secured a place in the UCL final. However, this game was so much the opposite of the game in Camp Nou. We had 62% possession and 18 attempts, with 6 on target. We played a totally attacking game in contrast to the defensive one we played in midweek.

       Man of the match, Fernando Torres, scored a wonderful hat-trick. He was very sharp throughout the game, his touches were brilliant. Certainly looked back to his best. He deserved the man of the match, and his hat-trick. Sturridge showed no notable performance, besides his amazing strike in the first minute. Essien still looking to perform to his best, especially after his long-term injury. Cech was rarely busy, but made a great save when he had to (guess that's what makes a top-class goalkeeper). Bosingwa played in unfamiliar center-half position, but performed well.

       It was another great night for CFC fans. A night to remember where Torres scored his first hat-trick. This 6 - 1 demolition of QPR will keep our momentum going, and strengthen our chances to finish fourth, as well as Di Matteo's chances to be permanent manager. Results in Saturday have all gone our way, with Newcastle losing, and Arsenal held to a draw. A perfect weekend it will be if Tottenham is held against Rovers at White Hart Lane. But this is certainly a great performance once again from the team, and from our No 9, Fernando Torres, especially.
Expect to see his name in the headlines! Go Go Go Blues!! #CFC
