Eidur the Spider

I put Martin Tyler in the same category....maybe not xenophobic though. Hatred of Chelsea? Oh yes.

This squad is paper thin. Won't make it to bloody christmas til theyre on their last legs. Can we please strengthen and be able to rotate with Champions League and other cup competitions too. Jeez.

Dan Levene‏Verified account @danlevene BTW, to reiterate: this is NOT a competitive game. Pedro will NOT be banned following that red card. He can be selected to face Burnley.

Don't see much point. Can't see much of an argument for it to be overturned. Late and nasty tackle even if he didn't mean it.

Bad tackle, other way round we'd be up in arms. Silly challenge leaves the ref with a choice and I can see why he sent him off. Even in a friendly that was naughty.

Yep he will. Violent conduct in community shield is a ban. Two yellows no.

Our small squad getting smaller.

Definite red card there. Idiot Pedro, nasty little challenge that, if it were on one of ours we'd be up in arms. Prat.

Super pass Willian. Morata's running style reminds me of Torres. Hopefully thats where the similarities end.

INCREDIBLE SAVE TIBO! FUCKING WONDERFUL.

Off to the Etihad you go then....

Hopefully this doesn't mean curtains or Christensen. I do like the idea of us getting VVD, he's looked absolute quality every time I've seen him play. So cool, calm and composed not only on the ball but when defending an oncoming attacker. Doesn't do a moonwalk backwards (Looking at you Cahill). I'm wondering like a few others here if this means we're moving on from wingback signings and moving a few players around. Azpi at right WB will be just fine I think, when he ventured forward from the back three a few times last season he showed he's improved his overall passing/crossing game. That pinpoint cross to Diego against Palace in particular. As for LWB, I'm sure Baba is still on our books right? Give him a go, and we've also got Kenedy if he can stop being a prick on social media. We can always look again in Jan if it becomes a problem.

#Chelsea are ready to offer €25million for Antonio Candreva, having been made available by Inter Milan. [Premium Sport]

Text "SIGNING" to Chelsea FC to help this poor club get a signing this summer. One text could get Danny Drinkwater bossing the Central midfield in the Champions League. Thank you.

All for this signing. Gives us depth at right wing back and has experience. Conte knows him well too. Sign him up!

I'm gonna go to the Megastore and ask for 'Drinkwater' on the back of my shirt. I know for a fact Danny is waiting in a backroom for the time to announce he's a 'Chelsea player now'

#Chelsea are poised to make a £25million move for Oxlade-Chamberlain, who is yet to sign a new deal after rejecting an offer. [Express] #Chelsea manager Antonio Conte believes he can turn Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain into a top class wing back. [Express]

N'golo and Drinkwater reunited.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA..... State of this transfer window mate. But wait. Antonio will turn him into Vidal.

As long as we actually spend this money on buying another CM then I'm okay with it. I'm just growing more and more concerned with the level of outgoings, whereas it seems like at the moment, no one is on the horizon. Sandro deal looks dead in the water,no more talk of any CM's coming in. I know we've made some good signings so far in terms of Baka, Morata and Rudiger, but we need DEPTH. Right now we're a puddle.

#Chelsea have once again moved for Inter winger Antonio Candreva with a €18million bid. [Premium Sport]

He's hilarious in Silicon Valley

BUY BUY BUY. The Ox would be a great addition in several areas of the pitch.
