Ollie

lol how gutting would it be for all the ppl with 'Essien 5' on their shirts if he did change so late and so close to the start of the season. That would be awful specially as these shirts are only used for 1 season. Surely essien would think about the fans, its a bit out of order on his part.

I'm a bit nervy about this too because defoe and crouch will be hard to handle. We've always had a problem with peter crouch. I just hope we play well and create a lot of chances. Less than 2 hours before our new season starts and its really exciting. We have done very well on the opening day the last few years so lets hope it continues today. Arsenal and Liverpool won yesterday 1-0 and both teams looked very average. The mancs will batter newcastle later i assume so its imperative we win.

Wooo we got 10 golds now and are 3rd in the medal table I did the 100m at school in sports day, i was one of the best at school at that but i obviously couldnt do that in the real thing. I would do football. theres nothing else i'm particularly good at. I love watching all the stuff tho.

Hidious Pay Packets Cheating Lack of technology when its available Consistency of Referees and linesmen. They are too consistant at being shit Lack of homegrown talent who have their heart in their team being given a chance The FA's Rules and stuff like Luton being doct 30 points. Punishments for administration is terrible The dying art of the sliding tackle Prices I guess theres more but i'll just say the basics i guess

hes not a bad player, i just hate him because of his pointless tricks but moreso for his whinging, crying and diving. I reckon without the diving side, he would be the best but i cant call a cheat the best in the world. nooo waaay!

Wasn't clinical or sexy. We played well at times but the team didnt look happy with the jew. You can see that in this pre season the players look happy and already you can see only possitive things happening with Scolari replacing Grant. Nobody intends to play sexy football, it just depends how it looks on the pitch. How can sexy football be the agenda? lol it cant be. Man Utd and Liverpool hardly play sexy football. Arsenal think they play sexy football, great lot its done them since 2004.... In football you aint looking for sexy football. You get the ball and try and find the best passing option and the best and most effective way to score. Theres no 'sexy' way to do this lol. Arsenal just keep the ball in their own half. Yes passing is the best way to play but it aint sexy, its common basic sense, specially if your on 50k a week, you should know how to pass the ball to feet.

Hate is a very strong word but i really do hate Cheatiano Ronaldive. If he left the premiership (which he will either now or in 12 months time guaranteed) i would be over the fucking moon. Every time i hear his name and everytime i see him do some kinda trick it gets to me and i want someone to do him with a fierce leg breaking tackle and say "Evade this you cunt!!" I probably hate him more than anyone else in the world. If he died, i wouldn't care in the slightest. I'd be in celebratory mood. Just please, please get this wanker out of the EPL, thats all i ask, hes disgracing our game.

trust you serbian

Yep. Liverpool Fans (Sorry double post, can't delete )

This is really really weird. Great info. 8 Years is quite some time.

Do you remember Kalac from the WC 2006, Australia vs Croatia? How the hell does he manage to play for a team like AC Milan.....This guy is probably the worst GK in the world and hes played in the Champions League and the World cup. Theres hope for everyone!

Me at Home My Woman Me & My Woman And More lol her avoiding a photo

Well that was fun lol. First goal was a tad flukey, 3rd goal was a joke and a nice few tap-ins. Our football was fantastic today tho, pissed all over them. Ok so milan missed a few players but fuck it, they are still registered milan players and deemed good enough to play for them so they cant be bad. They missed maybe 3 players, not a whole team. We battered them, plain and simple. AC Milan 0-5 Chelsea Sounds and looks good

Fucking Hell that Ivanovic looks Good! Almost 4-0 Nic again. This is surreal lol. This AC Milan team is complete wank without Kaka.

LMFAO at Kalac! 3-0. I remember that GK from the World Cup and he had a nightmare there for Australia. This is fun. Nico again

2-0, great finish from nic. This is an amazing start.

That kit in blue for the home kit would actually look fantastic. They should use the same template as the black kit for all the kits imo. Its a great looking kit, maybe even the best (template) ive seen. Just looks so perfect.

Blimey, only an hour and a half to go til kick off, never rrealised it was that early. I'm happy bout that because i'ma be bored all day lol so before we know it it'll already be 1pm and i hate waiting for Chelsea games. This will obviously be the toughest game on paper but i dont think this is the greatest milan of all time. I actually thuroughly expect us to win this game. It'll be tight but 1 or 2 goals should do the job and get us on a bit of a high going into the pompey game in 2 weeks time. Be a good scalp. Last time we played them was in the USA in a great match. Shevchenko scored the winner against us with a last minute free kick. Be amazing if he got the winner today. Doubt it tho.

oi matt, pay attention, i posted the time on the first page 6:05 Even tho i'm gonna miss it

This is a much tougher game yeah. The Russians are always quite solid and hard to beat and Lokomotiv are a proper team and will be miles better than the cack we have faced in the last 10 days. Could go down to penalties (seriously it actually could) I reckon it'll be very close but i'm sure we'll win. 2-1 or 1-0. Will be a perfect game to play to prepare for the start of the EPL season.

Well apparently Bentley was a yid as a kid but i spose playing and supporting is different. You cant really support a team when you are playing in the premier league. Hes always done his utmost for blackburn against arsenal, hes actually had a lot of clashes with them for blackburn. He doesnt care about Arsenal anymore. He'll want to beat Arsenal more than anyone else when hes wearing the white of tottenham. Ive seen how he performs against arsenal. It seems as tho he hates them. Tottenham are just another team to play for and he has gone to a better team and it will help his career.

I love the black. Ive got both so far and i'll defo be buying the yellow too. Chelsea have always been associated with yellow and this is our first Yellow kit for ages, like 2002 so i gotta get this one. Wish we had last years white one still tho. I love that shirt. Dunno where the fuck the black/dark blue kits keep coming from. We are 1) Blue 2) While 3) Yellow. Thats what we always should be. Anyone seen that Liverpool have re-created that grey away shirt which they had in the 80's?

just in case anyone is wondering, the game is on friday 1st august and kick off is 6:05pm uk time. I'll comment about the match later because i'm busy lol.

well it was just an easy, comfortable win against a shit, pointless national side. I hate playing these wank teams, it does nothing. I'm just so happy we are playing Lokomotiv and either AC Milan or Sevilla because they are real proper games. If we're gonna be up for it in the first game of the season, we need some true tests againt decent opposition. not part time shite.
