Barcelona have Messi. Real Madrid have Ronaldo. But we have Hazard (and Mata)! :blue scalf: Attractive football. Brilliant.

Come on. 8-0.

I think the OP may be offline, and I'm sure the deadline closes for Week 1 soon. Could somebody give me the code please?

I don't have enough posts to send PMs, but could I please join the league?

Will Mata play tomorrow? We play two games in the first week so I'm hoping he'll play at least one of the games.

To have or to not have Mata and Lukaku in my fantasy team...

Fucking Watt

17m release clause? sign him up.

Joey Barton is a knowledgeable man.

What's up with people selecting Mata, Azpi and Torres? Spain have a friendly a couple of days ahead of the EPL starting, perhaps Mata wasn't played that much to try avoid him from Spain's squad.

No, we switched to a 3-5-2 like formation. Similar to the formation we used against Liverpool in the FA Cup under Jose.

Just read Gary Neville's pre-season build up, he thinks Hazard can become the world's best number 10.

Views on a permanent three at the back?

De Rossi to sign at half-time.

For those that have voted via another forum, perhaps such forums should be stated?

Signed Chelsea shirt with every player's name, including the manager, from the CL win.

We'll win a proper game. #KTBFFH

Only a friendly lads, we all knew how good Ronaldo is. Good performance from Van Ginkel, bargain at 9M. Glad we didn't pick up any injuries. Couldn't watch half the match with the fireworks... Forward and CB please, Chelsea. Maybe even a world-class CM.

So, very interesting this. 'Real Madrid is playing this competition in pre-season here because I organised it for them,' he smiled. 'I did it knowing I was not doing the pre-season with them. After that I did it with my new club and we knew it was very possible we would meet Real. They won their matches, we won ours and we are there. We played Inter and Milan, two big teams, and now against Real, so for us it's fantastic, especially for our young players, and we have a lot, [who have played for] clubs not with our dimension used to big crowds, stadiums, and opponents. To play Real is the best thing that could happen.'

Haha, a player is out with an injury and people question whether he is leaving or not. Pathetic. This is a friendly, it is to bring people up to match fitness. If winning was Jose's main concern he wouldn't have played Bertrand and Ba. Our team is still more than capable of winning, which I believe we will. 3-1. Same result as the UEFA Super Cup, or so I'm predicting.

Does anyone have a link to Chelsea's new 'England's first' banner? Saw it a couple of days ago, had all the European trophies on it.

Van Ginkel.
