Terry Does it All

John Terry got some minutes in goal for Chelsea yesterday after two of their keepers had to be taken off. I've always felt bad for poor old Carlo Cudicini, a spectacular goalie, who's been stuck behind Peter Cech. Now Chelsea might be without both of them for their match with Barcelona on Wednesday. A quick glance at the Chelsea roster tells us that Henrique Hilario, a 30-year-old from Portugal, is the 3rd string goalie. Apparently he's notable enough to have his own Wikipedia article, but aside from mentioning that he played for Jose Morinho at Porto, it doesn't tell us too much. Oh! He is "known simply as Hilario." I think my Wikipedia article would be similar:


Paul Andrew Arras, known simply as "Arras," (born September 8, 1981 in Syracuse, New York, USA) is an American student who plays as a writer for The Sports Sauna and This Island Life.

He joined blogger on February 16, 2005 for Eric Allen's blog, Random Thoughts.

I watched all but the opening 4 minutes of this game, so I didn't see Cech go down.

Terry wore Hilario's jersey's which was a disappointment. A Terry goalie jersey would be an excellent buy.

Chelsea could have stomped Reading 4-0 had we wanted to. The Blues stepped off the gas so completely that at one point, Cudicini and Terry passed the ball back and forth between each other three times.

A couple of notes: Essien is very, very good. Khalid is excellent, too. Mikel never looked settled. Robben is trying to work in the system. Shevy is showing class in the middle of the field, but not near the 18-yard box. Wayne Bridge looks like Dave Eggars.
