Heitinga breaks his jaw in a training session (what are we doing in training, running into brick walls?), and he'll miss a month of action.

Dec. 14, Match 17
11-3-2, 3rd pl., 36 pts.
v. Chelsea (10-4-2, 5th pl., 34 pts. - Leading scorer: Landon Donovan, 7)
Series: Blues lead 4-1-3
Fav: Posh, 6:4

We have a big chance here in mid-week to make Spurs pay for their weekend loss at Newcastle. Chelsea with a big chance to pass us in the table.
Injured: Mascherano, Mokoena, Heitinga
Lineup:
GK: Arenas
Def: Bocanegra, Marcos, Alex, Zaccardo
Mid: Jesus, Sneijder, Gavilan, Gerard
Str: Mngomeni, Cole

8'- Alex with a free kick about 22 yards from the end line, and to the right of the penalty area... he whips it in, and Gerard heads it on... GOAL! Cech had no chance, great header by Gerard to put us up 1-0!

10'- Aliaksandr Hleb with a nice cut back pass off the end line for Landon Donovan... Donovan with the first time shot, blocked by Arenas! The rebound is headed to the middle, where Andres D'Alessandro tries a volley, but Arenas scrambles across and tips that one away as well!

16'- Damien Duff with a 15 yard shot from the left... blocked by Arenas, but right to Donovan, who taps in the rebound. 1-1.

27'- Some horrible defense in front of goal, as a throw in comes long to Wayne Bridge... he has time to wheel and pass to Duff, who is only 5 yards from goal, and nigh unmarked... he easily scores from that range against a disgusted Arenas. 2-1, Blues.

30'- Bocanegra with a long pass from our third to Cole at midfield, who heads it straight onto Mngomeni... we get a 2 on 1... Mngomeni gets into the box, then cuts back to Cole who has an easy finish! 2-2! Cole's 100th career league goal.

42'- A ball is stolen in front of our box, and played back to Arenas... he goes long to Cole, who has beaten his man! Two more defenders converge from the sides, but he gets around both of them, then powers it past Petr Cech! What a goal! 3-2, Posh!

49'- Donovan wiggles free and gets an open 10 yard shot, but Arenas blocks it wide.

62'- Mngomeni with a steal of a pass in the Chelsea area... and he takes a couple of dribbles and scores inside the near post! 4-2, Posh!

63'- Bocanegra with a long ball to Mngomeni down the left... Mngomeni runs down the left... then crosses back to the spot for Carlton Cole, who half-volleys it past Cech! 5-2, Posh as Cole gets another hat-trick!

Kargbo in for Cole, Wallner on for Mngomeni as we switch to a 4-5-1.

80'- Lunt in for Sneijder.

The time ticks away as we kick the ball around, and we take a convincing home win over the London side. Carlton Cole earns a 10 and MoM honors... Arenas with a 9, and nearly every other starter picks up an 8. We also vault into first place with this mid-week make up game.

Win, 5-2, up to 1st place
Shots/on target: Posh 16/9, Blues 11/5
Poss: 52-48, Posh
A: 19,426
