Ollie

Shoulda brought in Odemwingie as our back up striker as part of the deal. Oh well, i'm sure we'll get someone. I also don't believe Romelu will make it here but hope i'm wrong. £18m tho... that was too much.

He's a skinny weed that steals doughnuts!

Wasting money... ok so Lucas is overpriced, hazard is overpriced, yet this true legendary manager spent.... £30m on Berbatov. £30m on Ferdinand. £28m on Veron. £20m on Anderson. £19m on de Gea. £18.5m on Carrick. £17m on Hargreaves. These were all paid over the odds imo and this is just some of what he has paid in the last decade. Rooney, Valencia, Nani and Van Nistelrooy were all probably worth what they paid but it's not exactly unheard of for Man Utd to spend big on players and not all to work out. I mean.... Their record transfer was 30.75m on .... BERBATOV!? Yep, SAF is a true legend.

Excellent move. WBA play good football and are also a premiership club so it's obviously good that he keeps himself in the prem and hopefully does some things against our rivals. Good stuff.

Gomel.... Who? Saw the goal, a miss hit volley that shoulda been saved. Do it in the prem Fabio against the North London scum and the Mancs. I still remember him missing an open goal for us against Portsmouth i think it was. Rounded the keeper and did a Nando.

Torres winning the golden boot. Man City going into administration. Terry to not get booed throughout the season. Van Persie to sign a new contract at Arsenal. AVB Sacked before April. Alex Ferguson to not point at his watch.

One of the Mancs finishes outside the top 4 = Impossible Liverpool wins the league = Impossible Celtic don't win the SPL = Impossible Everton finishes in top 4 = Impossible Arsenal wins something = a bit likely unfortunately. PSG doesn't win Ligue 1 = Impossible Chelsea wins back-to-back CL = Unlikely Messi and Ronaldo score less than 100 goals combined = Unlikely I will expand. 1) City have the money and the squad. Man Utd have the manager and the know how. 2) Easy to explain really, there are at least 5 teams who are a lot better than them and Liverpool are not consistent at all. They also have a squad with poor quality. 3) Easiest to explain. No Rangers. They can lose 15 games and they would still probably win it.... They should go unbeaten all season. 4) Everton are obviously not in the levels of the top 6, in talent or in finance. I'd like to see a Billionaire take over Everton. 5) They signed 3 good players and they are still a very good side as much as i throw up to say it. FA Cup or League Cup chance i think. 6) PSG are too far ahead now to be challenged financially. Nobody can match their squad or wealth. They will do what Man Utd did from '93 onwards from now on in. 7) last season's achievement was uncanny, we're now getting players with little experience while our ageing players are another year older and wont feature as much. This season is the real transition year. 8) Is this overall, including all competitions? Well they are both at the age to score bagfuls again. I reckon they will hit the 130 mark. What's the most unlikely out of Liverpool and Celtic, hmmm..... http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a358/olivermaddison/DREAM-ON.gif

Like this time last year when Ironically it was AVB's team trying to get him.

Next we should do it with our eyes closed to represent the Paralympics. This is my first paralympic attempt.

because i don't want to have a shirt that's wrong. Simple as that really. If Chelsea use a star against Wigan or Reading, i'm gonna get the shirt swapped, simple. Even if they inherited a green pea on the shirt from tomorrow, i'd need to get the green pea version! I wan't it to look EXACTLY the same as what they're wearing. I don't care about tech-fit tho, it doesn't appear different.

What a fucking cheating cunt that Nani is. Glad they missed 3 out of 3 pens, scum cunts.

None yet, just got the shirt plain, i never get names. Just wanted to get it to wear down the pub on sunday lol. I'll get the UCL winners sleeve badge and the respect on the other sleeve soon tho when i've got time.

The white away shirt if it's the one you mean looks really nice in the flesh, i was tempted to get that too but kinda skint atm. It's lovely. I'm obsessed with the star because i want to wear the exact shirt that will be worn. I want to get the UCL holders patch. I asked the Chelsea store also if they will have the wonners badge on the sleeve and the 'respect' on the other sleeve and she said yes. So... when i see our first UCL game, i'll get the shirt modified to how it needs to be. The lady tho did tell me the star is only a commemorative shirt. It's down to Uefa to accept our ask to use it.

He was awful in the Olympics but i suppose that's just a sign of not wanting to be there. Just because Cavani is good in counter attacking situations doesn't mean that's all he can do. He's only really played for Napoli. He hasn't been tried in different formulas has he? He's a goal scorer and he will always score at a reasonable rate imo. We need him. As much as i want to see Torres succeed, we can't rely on him at all. There has been nothing, since he came here that suggests he will score 20 goals a season.

i bought the home shirt today, without the star. I asked the Chelsea store in Kingston again about the star. She said it won't be used in the prem but may be used in the UCL. I just thought fuck it, i need it for the CS, i'll just buy it and add to it if i need to.

Not the hardest game really. I shall improve EDIT: Does improve. Nice to break 11 seconds so soon

I'll ave a go at it this year.

Personally i think 3rd in the league, FA Cup quarters, UCL quarters, League Cup winners, Super Cup winners, Club World Cup winners and runners up in the community shield on Sunday. My expectations domestically aren't as high as they could be as our new players lack a bit of matureness and premiership experience. We've signed players that will go on to be world class but they aren't world class yet. I feel as though the next 2-3 years will be years or genuine rebuilding and transition and trophies may not come so easily. I do however, feel that in 3 or 4 years time, we'll be a huge force and one of the best teams in the world, if not thee, thee best. The players need time tho. I reckon a nice league cup win can start things off domestically and help the players settle and gain confidence. To be honest, if we only won the Club world cup and came 4th, i'd be a pretty happy man. Not expecting much..... YET!

So this is why Malaga are now fucked. They were simply being used. Sometimes you really have to be careful who controls your club. Hopefully the same happens to Man City. At least we know we're owned by someone that loves our club. http://blrb.co.uk/wtf-happened-malaga-cf/

Swapped Luiz for Ash. Still got the same team as what i posted tho unbelievably.

Cazorla is a very good footballer. Not blessed with blistering pace but his delivery is fantastic and is a free kick expert. I do get the feeling tho that if he really is so good, we woulda just hijacked the deal. He couldn't turn us down with all the Spanish influence we have and the 'ambition'. Apparently this has saved Malaga from relegation. What's happened to them? They were doing a PSG, Anzi, Man City and now they are fucked and in financial ruin. They're in the UCL next season, they might go the same way as Villarreal.

18, young, already ours, Brazilian, RB... no brainer, get him in! Born in 1994, damn i feel old. Still remember 'that' FA Cup Final...

Welcome to Talk Chelsea, hope you enjoy your stay. Don't really see much wrong with your English, it's better than the American's English (joking guys, chill). Have fun.

It's an interesting point because last season when RDM took charge, we seemed more disciplined and seemed more like the solid team we were before. This pre season has been with the same Manager using the same formation and yes, we have been all over the place, especially at the back. Maybe it is because it's pre season and the motivation for perfection from the players and the manager just isn't there atm. We have been AVB like which isn't something i wanna even think about but i suppose we'll see what happens on Sunday and in the first 5 part of the season, especially against Arsenal in September. At the moment our players are more relaxed and don't seem to really care that much. Not gonna worry just yet because the players haven't played much together and i'm sure time and matches will improve things but the positioning and movement, especially in the last 2 games was not good at all. We'll see.

I don't mind waiting either, we've won it all now, this last decade has been unbelievable. Lets rebuild and start again. But this time, let's rebuild to new levels than what we have achieved since 2003. I understand lots here will be impatient but as the saying goes.... good things come to those who wait.
