Ollie

Maybe Hutch will get a chance. It's not a big game exactly so why not?

I remember when Ashley Cole came, we were all pro Bridge and wanted Cole to 'fuck off, Bridge is better' Yeah, oops.

Left back may be interesting. Maybe Ash will fancy going lol.

That's what i'm trying to say, i don't hate him but if he plays for Liverpool, i'm gonna have to find a way to at least dislike him and Rodgers for that matter. Please don't sign any more ex Chelsea youngsters Brendan mate, ok.

The worst part is that it's hard to hate him.

same as me pretty much. Went mad when Schweinsteiger missed, i had horrible flashbacks of 2008 and my heart was thumping. Never been so nervous in those 30 or so seconds.

Will be interesting to see who does play next Wednesday. The Olympians wont, the Euro semi/finalists probably wont, maybe the quarter finalists too, JT needs a break. Time for the likes of Lukaku, Hazard, Piazon, de Bruyne, Kakuta, Marin and Josh to shine. I can't wait for Wednesday, i love pre seasons where our fringe players try to make an impact. We're playing PSG and AC Milan. Are AC Milan playing PSG? If so, that would be tooooo funny.

It's mad, just insane. AC Milan basically stated that they don't have much money and in terms of transfer fee and wages they could gain / save £150m. I can't blame them but PSG are just going all out to dominate, and not dominate in a couple of years but dominate now, dominate immediately. Lucky for Montpelier that they won the league last season and for us winning the UCL, i'm so glad we've got that out the way now considering what these Malaga's, Anzi's, Man City's, PSG's are doing to todays football. Yeah i remember they got Levezzi too didn't they and they already have good players like Pastore and Gamiero, Nene, Menez, Alex. Disturbing. They will dominate Ligue 1 for ages.

So him and Thiago Silva have gone to PSG for like £50m .... Madness, crazy, nuts....Fuck me i don't wanna pull PSG out the hat in next season's UCL, please get Arsenal, please, please, please !!! Would post a source but there are lots, if u want one, look for one. https://www.google.co.uk/#hl=en&gs_nf=1&cp=23&gs_id=2i&xhr=t&q=zlatan+and+silva+to+psg&pf=p&safe=off&sclient=psy-ab&oq=zlatan+and+silva+to+psg&gs_l=&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.,cf.osb&fp=c72d84806ae8a6&biw=1366&bih=667

This is the type of thread that i can see serving about 3 days and getting locked lol. Fact is, we got better when AVB left just like in 2009 we got better when Scolari left. I do think more is being said about his quotes than needs be. It's not a big deal.

Don't we have a friendly against Brighton soon..... I always liked Wayne too and tbh with the bird he has now, why should he even care about what happened with JT. She's a bit of alright. Funny tho.

After winning both the trophies we won, this shouldn't even be talked about, there's no drama or controversy about him being sacked.

Certainly not me lol

Oh yeah he was critisised for leaving Torres out wasn't he when he seemed in a bit of form (ish), well that was a no win situation then lol but seriously in the UCL under him, bar one game we were awful. It was the players who had to get themselves up for the Valencia home game too because they knew it was shit or bust. He didn't need to bring Kalou on, he's shit when he's good. Everything was going perfect.... leave it! We started the campaign shit, he left us truly in the shit. Look at where we were when AVB left. Even the FA Cup, Robbie had to take us to Birmingham for an away replay ffs.

Nice one mate, love the middle name, the wooley hat and the bib lol. Cute lad.

Sturridge and Romeu are the 2 things i'll give him credit for but leaving Drogba, Lampard and Cole out of the Napoli away game was the final nail. WBA was just the varnish on the top of his coffin. Kalou gave the needless pen away in Valencia when we had full control of the game. Anyway, what's done is done. I just find it funny that he thinks he put that squad together.

Whatever he says or any of you say, i can't give him any credit at all. We usually get out of the group easily, every year but this time we had to win the last game after poor performances at Genk and Leverkusen. He also made a change when we were winning at Valencia which had a bad effect (Kalou on). Then we had finally sneaked out of an easy-ish group, next was Napoli and we got smashed, could or should've been more than 3 they scored. Barcelona.... would he have played high line? Like he did home to Arsenal with their quick players? It woulda been a massacre. AVB left us hanging on with the skin of our teeth in the UCL. There's no doubting that Chelsea improved both on and off the pitch when Robbie took over the reigns from him. How many of those players were his and did he really put the team together? The base of that team were challenging the UCL since the mid 2000's. He broke the team up rather than put it together.

As i've said, he's got better in the last 2 seasons quite clearly. He's good good feet, good touch, good composure, great reading of the game, he's tough, solid, physical, strong, he can shoot too, i know he aint scored but he has got a good hit on him when he tries it. His passing is good, his awareness is much better around him too and he is making more forward passes and he is a real key turning defence into attack. Ok so i've basically described the best CDM ever but seriously, he does have all those attributes, even his long range distribution has improved 10 fold. Now he's 25, he's perfect for us. Now he needs to perhaps develop his attacking a tiny bit, have a pop at goal, get 3 goals a season and provide that killer pass like Song at Arsenal has done so well in the last 12 months. I didn't like him at all but credit to him, he's quality and i wouldn't swap him for anyone.

Ah aint been here for a while. M&M World in Central London. By London Eye (Kinda) Olympic Countdown (Yeah, pics took a couple months ago lol) Me when i was 11 years old (School Photo. Not sure if i've posted it yet but hey, might as well).

lol him and Kalou at Lille would be funny as hell. I'd feel sorry for their fans so much, i'd probably donate their forum an apologetic tenner.

That's just sick.

It's bad because he said he put the team together. In fact, he tried to dismantle is and change the way we play.

Just heard the bit where he said he put the team together and he helped us win the trophies. Really Andre? Really? really?

We're being linked with every lightweight under the sun.

If he was so bad for Vitesse and the fans hate him, why would we put him through that torment again for another year? Get him out of there and onto a new challenge or he'll lose all self confidence and get worse. Whether we have a relationship with them or not, these loans are supposed to help our players, not hinder them. Must say tho, if he can't hack it for Vitesse, he's gonna find it nearly impossible here and i thought he looked good. Oh well.
