Is this Chelsea vs Barcelona or City vs West Ham. I can't tell lol

Cech was always better than Iker. Cech may be the most under rated keeper of all time, no respect for the man. At the same time Iker was in his prime I would have taken Cech every day of the week.

So if we shit the bed in the league does that mean will win the Champions League like in 2012??? If so, sign me the fuck up.

With Torres leading the front line we had the most successful European run in Chelsea history, not sure what you are trying to say here.

Must I show you his Liverpool / 2008 Euro Compilation? Fernando was the best number 9 in the world at that time. His pace along with his composure in front of net was unstoppable at the time.

This post is hilarious. Arsenal may be the most mentally weak top side in Europe, If Mourinho wants to get a draw with them we will get a draw. The odds are in our favor that we will get some combination of a win and a draw against them next year. Going into a match against Arsenal does not worry me at all with Jose at the helm. We play far too organized for them, we can sustain their constant pressure, counter, and then park the bus. The Jose formula for beating Wenger.

Torres assisted Mandzukic today. It looks like being back in Madrid has upped his game a bit, he looks happy. Hard to have any hate for the guy.

If they weren't a feeder club for Bayern they would be competing in the Bundesliga just like they use to.

Sack Mou, and splash the cash at Klopp. I'm tired of watching boring Mourinho football for fucks sake.

I'll agree that technically he was not as good as any of the three listed. I consider Drogba to be much more of a big match striker though, and when both players were lighting the premier league up Torres might have been a tad better. Just look at some of his finishes with Liverpool, so much power and pace, no defender in the world could contain him when he was on his A game. You can't go wrong with any four of them. I always thought Torres was a criminally under rated passer as well, he has provided some great balls throughout his career.

Torres is old as well. Either way, give me prime Liverpool / Spain NT over prime Barcelona / Inter Eto'o. When Fernando was still world class the lad did things I've never seen any striker do, it seemed like he used to glide past defenders and finish from anywhere with ease.

As far as I'm concerned a guy (Schurrle) good enough to get loads of playing time for Germany, and net crucial goals is good enough for this Chelsea side. But if we are able to get Reus in a swap, I'd give him up in a heartbeat.

If you replace Cesc with Oscar or any other CM's we have had throughout Torre's tenure here, he might still be here... The truth hurts but Cesc is the exact player Torres needed while he was here, and we never got one. But I hope he can regain form in Milan, as for us I'm completely happy with Costa even though he seems to have an extremely limited skillset.

Ronaldo is just as good as passing as Messi. I don't even have to look far into the past to give you a perfect example of his passing capabilities, just look at highlights from this weeks Real Madrid game and you will see a beautiful give and go and then give back from Ronaldo to Benzema.

Can we call it even and just say King Zlatan is the most complete attacking player in the world?

So pretty much you are saying that Messi is better at one facet of the game. Ronaldo also buries and creates chances by the boatload. So Messi is a better dribbler than Ronaldo (even though Ronaldo makes people look stupid with his ability on the ball.)

What is Messi better at then Ronaldo? Being more effective? He is not more athletic (not even close to being as athletic as Ronaldo), he can't drill free kicks from anywhere on the pitch, he does not score as many wonder goals, he is not better with using skills. Forget about Messi's non-existent heading abilities. He might be a better dribbler then Ronaldo but that is a close bet even.

Talent wise Ronaldo is on another level then Messi. He can do everything, Messi cannot. I don't even get how people compare them as players, they are much too different.

Why the hell is this guy not starting yet? He is clearly one of our best attacking players, as well as Germany. The man just knows how to attack and score goals. I don't get how Jose chooses to start a guy like Ramires every game who is so one dimensional and can't pass for shit, but we have Andre on the bench who always delivers. Makes no sense. And yes, I know they are different positions but Schurrle is so effective and is reserved for the bench, meanwhile, Ramires is ineffective and starts every match.

Does anyone know exactly where Rojo/Shaw fit into this new United side? Why the hell are United stacking quality left backs when they are running a classic formation that uses three CB's. It literally makes no sense considering neither Shaw/Rojo have the qualities of a true wingback.

I laugh about the fact that Cleverly, Valencia, and Ashley young actually start for United. All three of them would not even sniff the pitch at any top tier club.

I'm not disagreeing. I think the EPL is the most stacked league in the world in terms of quality competition week out. But both Dortmund and Munich are better sides then City. Just look at what team pushed Real harder. Dortmund for sure.

But both Dortmund and Munich would win the EPL...

On top of that fact that Reus scores more goals and he is just a more explosive player in general. Reus was also injured most of this year, and performed better then Hazard in the CL this year. Did Eden even show up for the CL this year?
