  1. I will happily swap you homes mate. You can have my luvly Brixton flat and I can live on a gorgeous Island and sit on the beach all day getting stoned and fishing!! Only a short trip to the ground-fancy an exchange lol I don;t THINK Eden will even take the flight. We shouldn't need to be reliant on one player to beat the likes of these teams It's time we gave the likes of CHO the trust to step up. See this is the exacts position that I worry about. With our lack of rotation when we ask our guys like CHO to do a job they dont have the experience or game time in the 1st team necessary to do it possibly. IF we had been giving them 10 mins or so a game they would be climatized and would be without the nerves they will probably have IF they are picked I'm sure Sarri will rest a few of the 1st team for the pikeys game. I'm more interested to wonder how he will attack the 3 scouse gits games.
  2. Like who mate? Theres only Dave that has the mentlity and above all character to even come into contention. This isn't a time to play at favorites. We need to have some sort of strength of character. Someone that can make decisions. I was watching the Spuds game tonight and found myself agreeing with something Hoddle was talking about He was asked what Spuds was lacking and he said above all they had no leader. They didn't have anyone in the team who could see what the team was needing to do and above all have the character, strength or above all the ability to say to a lad, someone like Kane that he needed to do such n such . Tell him he needs to be doing more of this or that. Someone that can do the managers job on the pitch. You can't tell me that anyone apart from Dave can do that job as well as Jorginho. Mate It makes no difference how long a players been with us if he can do a job. To me he has the trust of ALL of the lads, definitely the managers, and he is already basically doing the job without the armband. Tell me who of 'the oldies' has that ability and character to do this job?
  3. Dont know whether to watch Napoli or the scouse gits
  4. I know mate it made me go WTF too. If Eden pushes it to the window it would really wind me up.Just wouldn't be necessary.
  5. You doubt the Daily Star!! Shirley Knot https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/730494/Champions-League-2018-19-Man-Utd-Man-City-most-valuable-squads-transfers-Pep-Guardiola
  6. My hearts with Dave and my heads with Jorgi boy.
  7. THIS is why he should be our captain IMHO. Its the sort of leader a team needs. Chelsea’s ‘class act’ revealed by Jamie Carragher: ‘He’s the coach on the pitch’ CHELSEA new boy Jorginho has been hailed as Maurizio Sarri’s “coach on the pitch” by Jamie Carragher. https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/730533/Chelsea-News-Jorginho-Maurizio-Sarri-Jamie-Carragher-Premier-League-Rumours-Gossip
  8. Its only the HOME games the fact was about bud.
  9. I would absolutely love us to have that atmosphere at home! Just imagine the adrenaline that must build up walking thru there. And the nerves it creates in the away team Its similar what we used to have in the good old days when away fans used to dread coming to us because of the grief they received. Might sound basic but it was great. Wouldnt we be dancing around the lunge tonight if Inter and PSG won tonight and if the Mancs both lost tomorrow I'd be bouncing off the walls. Simple things please simple minds 'they' say!
  10. So does that give him a goal extra or ? It doesn't make any difference to the interesting fact tho
  11. Mate when you were on the railways did you know anyone that was from Peterborough? Had a really good mate that was a engine driver. Both freight and passenger. But ended up pretty high in the trade union. Name was Ian Neeve nickname Emu Great lad. Started the 1st Punk band in Pboro end of 76 early 77 - The Dole Ive still got one of their rehearsal tapes from '.77 along with a bunch of old Billy Bragg cassettes we used to record at his shows Good days. Met him on my 18th birthday and broke his nose lol Saw him the next lunchtime walking thru town and I appologized for some reason. We ended up going to the pub and getting pissed. Was me best mate for years. I asked because I know Railway men all seem to know each other lol And Emu died 4/5 years ago with pancreatic cancer. I'd not seen him for a few years but so glad I got to see him 2 days before he passed away. Broke my heart but some things you have to do eh The Dole http://www.boredteenagers.co.uk/DOLE.htm
  12. This is Part II of Roman Abramovich’s Russian Revolution: Part 2 – Chopping and Changing https://lastwordonfootball.com/2018/09/18/roman-abramovichs-russian-revolution-part-2/
  13. Whem he split his testimonials ya meam? @ 1:46 https://amonpointtv.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/(www.AMonpointTV.com)_Chelsea_vs_Cardiff_City_4-1_.mp4 V Cardiff.mp4
  14. Way I look at it is look at Kovacic. Would you say that he was a bad player? One that wouldn't be able to play back in Spain IF we were unlucky enough as to NOT buy him? Not all players loaned out are crap. I'm not up on Benficas team but as they are on top of their league they must have thought they had a surplus of players and the best thing for him and them was a loan/ And hes on fire. The thing is I cant see us getting him in Jan sales as his team are top of their league and theres 3 others on same points. I cant see them wanting their top scorer to go.
  15. Interesting read Chelsea: Marcos Alonso, Mateo Kovacic add the twist to a 4-1-4-1 https://theprideoflondon.com/2018/09/18/chelsea-marcos-alonso-mateo-kovacic/ Predictability is a fatal characteristic in modern coaching. No matter how effective or innovative one’s methods are, they will not be for long (cough cough, Mourinho). Maurizio Sarri is on the right track by building on what he did at Napoli without trying to replicate it.
  16. Thought this was an interesting fact In the 37 games in which Hazard has found the back of the net in the Premier League since joining the club in 2012, Chelsea have won 34 of them and drawn three, never losing a match when he has scored.
  17. That didn't last long did it? The poison dwarf twat has opened his gob again! Would love Napoli to get hammered tonight ADL: Sarri always gets sacked! https://www.football-italia.net/128107/adl-sarri-always-gets-sacked Aurelio De Laurentiis has again hit out at Maurizio Sarri, warning Chelsea that the ex-Napoli Coach was ‘always getting sacked’ and is a ‘stiff’ person. Sarri has guided Chelsea to five straight wins in the Premier League since replacing Antonio Conte over the summer, but De Laurentiis could not resist another pop at Carlo Ancelotti’s Napoli predecessor. “I’m always close to the team, also because I chose Ancelotti and I’m responsible, like I was with Sarri,” the President told reporters. “This time, however, I feel calmer. Sarri’s doing very well, but he’s suffered many defeats in his life and he was always getting sacked. “A person stiffened in his human relationships came out of those experiences.”
  18. You're looking forward to this aren't ya! Wish I was going mate. Hope you have a goodun.
  19. No he knew all right and it makes me love him for it!
  20. Can't get over these headlines are about US playing!!

  21. Sláinte!! I dont often hit the top shelf if I'm just out for a beer its only once I get that beer head on that I do. And normally stick to Brandy,Jim Beam and my current tipple Tequila at home/ But we go to India every year for between 3 and 9 months normally renting the same house in Goa. And 1st time we went I was 17 in 75. I never tried Feni I suppose till the mid to late 90s. We had been drinking Bhang all day along with a few E's and a bottle of mushroom juice so you can imagine the scene when our mate that owned the bar brought over a bottle of Feni. It didn't have a label so might have been homebrew which I found out later is sometimes cut with battery acid and industrial alcohol. But he was a good mate so I'm sure it was cool. But anyway I had a shot and thought it tasted like cough stuff. but lied to the Mrs saying it was OK. She was wasted anyway but I talked her into necking a shot which she did and what followed was a fountain of projectile vomit. Mostly white with all the Bhang lassi she had. It took awhile till she forgave mo lol A side note the house we rent has a big back yard full of cashew trees. The fruit falls and it ferments on the ground. Every year the local monkeys come over and scoff all this fruit up. They get very pissed. They then run riot thru the village over the rooftops throwing the roof slates and anything else thats not tied down and fight the neighboring monkeys. The 1st time I saw this absolutely freaked me out but you get used to it. This happens every year. I didn't think I would go again after last year but I thought sod it and am off in a couple of weeks for a month. See how it goes. If you havent had Bhang you really should drink it on its own - make your own. https://www.alchimiaweb.com/blogen/bhang-lassi-cannabis-milk-shake/
