But dont you think the sigb of a great player is to be his best in the big games when it matters? I love the lad but hes got to dg in when its not all going his way. Thats the last 2 games. We made excuses for him last week. Early knock, International break,tired etc. I know hes not a machine and gonna have a off game.

Why not Rodriguez?

Nobodys said owt but where was he yesterday? Its like hes got an on/off switch. This is another great reason we need to ballance the right side.

If we could get him for a reasonable price he would be great for LWB OR cover for both WBs until we decided just what we werer going to do with Alonso, Calciomercato (h/t the Sun's Anthony Chapman) reports Conte has his eyes set on the Fiorentina duo of Milan Badelj and Federico Bernardeschi, hoping to bring one or both into the fold in January. Bernardeschi in particular is one to keep an eye on, as the winger is widely regarded as one of Italy's top young prospects. He has played both in a central role and out wide for Fiorentina so far, scoring at ease and acting as one of the club's main creative outlets.

I say we do evertyhing humanly possible including torture,bribery and blackmail to get him!! a frontline ov Eden,Diego,Jimmy would be frightning. And we would finally have that ballance foir Eden we need so badly. Antonio Conte is set to rival Jose Mourinho for the signature of the out-of-favour Colombian who he tried to sign in the summer, after learning he is finally ready to leave Madrid http://www.goal.com/en/news/14222/transfer-talk/2016/11/27/29940132/rumours-chelsea-to-challenge-for-james-rodriguez

It amazes me just how little faith some have in the lads!! OK Its Shitty. OK its Pep. Big fuckin deal. We are playing out of our skins and have met every challenge thrown at us. I wanted to see just how we would handle being a goal down to a good team. Well we did our job. Might not have been pretry and maybe it mighta been better if a couple of the lads joined in and helped more or we had a bit more luck with scoring. But we dug deep and came back to win! I owe Costa a big appology. Never in a miillion years did I expect him not to get booked at Spuds. They tried fuckin hard from early on to rattle him and a Diego from any other year woulda been bringing blood up. But hes been excellent. A totally reformrd,changed,better player and I love the guy. I hope he wipes the floor with Aquero. Shity beat Burnley 1-2 yesterday. We beat them 3-0 even before we changed formation. Yeah it will be a good test but one I see us winning. Think I'm going up the night before and go clubbing for the night. Saves on hotels.

I think he wnew what he was doing when he said that he had never talked to Conte but Howe talks to him all the time giving advice etc. I cant see him coming back but who knows. We goit 3 stong young fit lads up for 1 CB position. Ake,Christensen and our beloved Happy. Do we use 1 or buy in a top CB??

What we gotta think about guys is who would fit our team/formation. Who would he replace if we are going to stick to this formation. Right now I'm sure we all agree we lack midfield creativity. Me I would like us to give Chalobah some time after the Shitty game and before we have to think about Jan sales.. I think he might haver the creativity we need. He certainly fit/strong and a B to B player. As well as Mikel off and so sadly Cescy not fitting the formation we got a white elephant in RLC. to get shot of.Hes a pain in our side being hyped so much by club and country. And basicly hes just not good enough. Another thing we need to worry about is IF Cescy goes thats 2 HG playerrs down with JT. The good thing is we have the under 21s from the academy to boost those HG numbers. Also there was rumours Begovic was off. Another HG player. Right now in a squad of 41 we have 6 HG and 4 under 21. So in a 25 man squad we are allowed 17 none HG over 21 I'm all for buying Verratti no matter the price but just dont get upset IF we have to lose Matic to get him cause I cant see Verratti being on the bench for the price he will be and I dont think Matic would be happy on the bench do you?

I say we thank him for his service, wish him well and wonder just WTF Barcas thinking!!

+1000 Likes!! God I hate North London. I live in Brixton near Coldharbour Lane. Its an area thats had quite a bit of gun crime,drugs,prostitutes (all the good stuff) but its also a real multicultiral area. Full of color,music and without very much racial negativity. Ive lived there with the Mrs and dog for quite awhile. I know alot of the 'dodgy' guys who are all ok with 'normal' peeps. Its only like minded other dodgy people they row with Nort London is cold,dark,lifeless. Just like alot of people up there. There are of course nice peeps and I have mates there. One of my best mates actually supports the North London team that wear red!! Yeah I know!! I really dont like the place and find great joy in telling them so at every possibility. And Iggy - yes mate you're dead right. They really dont like reminding theyve never beat us in their lifetime lol But I see it that its our job to keep reminding them!!

Azpi Luiz Upgrade Moses Kante Verratti Matic Upgrade Costa Hazard I'm not hatung on neither lad and they do a OK job BUT IF we are serious about wanting to be the best we can be and make a name for ourselves fighting the real big boys in Europe then we have to keep upgrading,

And after Shitty thats what `every team in PL will be saying about us for quite a few games. We have to beat the best to be the best! And I want us to beat them when they are at their best. Wheres the pride in beating a broke down team?? WHY? I've not been as up for a game for awhile (apart from Mounure and the North Londoners) I'm so wired I'm bouncing off the walls! No matter how I look at it I cant see us losing. I can't see us changing anythimg teamwise so 7 in a row!! Will be out early lubricating the vocal chords, We really need to shout these bunch of wankers out of the Bridge. Hope you all have a good game guys.

Some might titter but I wouldn't mind giving Oscar a try at RWB/ Hes a nippy bugga, fit as a butchers dog, IMHO his best strength is top end defending. Cant think who else unless we use Kante and put Matic with Chalobah.g

I could watch Chelsea TV for hours (and I do lol) and they just had a special on the lad. I loved watching us at this time. We were so exciting. My fave ever little guy Zola. But Poyet was great. Whenever there was a set piece you were bound to have that massive Uragayan forehead as a target somewhere in the box. I would have loved to shake him warmly by his throat at one point for kissing that cock in front of us but he kept getting injuries and his cruciate again. But looking back now we had 4 great years with him and he scored what? 50 goals in 150 games ishhh? Shame he cant sort out his managing career. Oh sorry - 49 goals. All here

LOL Infuriating. But he does it with a smile. It wouldn't hurt us if he said yeah we might be looking for this or that. Just for impatiant bastards like me haha

He doesn't let anything slip does he. No answers about anything but NOW!

Soon time for managers press confrence http://www.chelseafc.com/videos/chelseatvlive.html

Why not? The lads been brilliant for Watford!!!! I really liked Kennedy and yes IF HE WAS THE PLAYER WHO LEFT US I think he might make a good WB. I was upset he left but he wont be anything like the player who left us. Theres reports of him getting a bad attitude too. So even if he did get his form back he wont be ready to play at our level for weeks. Not if Conte thought Bats wasn't Chelsea standard fit after just being in the Euros.

So we dont buy in Jan sales to either upgrade nor strengthen/add good depth for key positions?. In late Jan we are 6 points in the lead. Alonso gets a broken toe and Moses gets a Groin strain in the Africans Nations cup as he has already been out 3 weeks its going to take ages to recover,rest and get better. Who do you suggest we use for WBs or do we change formations?

I'm with you. Ivbe always liked the fella. Hes a good Chelsea player. But I find him the same kinda player as Oscar. Meaning he has moments of sheer brilliance inbetween big periods of nonentity. Hes fit, runs round alot but he just hasn't delivered offensively nor in terms of assisting. Yes he was POTY for us last year but that was cause all the others were shite or hibernating. But I really wouldnt like him playing in the PL against. IF he was happy to take a 2nd seat to whoever we get for Right Wing upgrade. So unless we could really get a great deal for him or tell Mou to o one.

Oh Oh! I can see it. Sounds to me like Barca have touched base with him. Chelsea Wing-Back Moses : I Will End Up In Barcelona If I Keep Working Hard http://allnigeriasoccer.com/read_news.php?nid=21196 Barcelona want to sign Chelsea star: They've already scouted him three times - reports BARCELONA reportedly want to sign Chelsea defender Victor Moses. http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/565047/Chelsea-News-Victor-Moses-Barcelona

All right Luiz is doing those long passes and I like it. Gives us more crteativity options. But even tho the lads stepped up and making the most of Willians mums illness etc I really do think we need to upgrade that position and have needed to since Eden came. Sadly with no Cescy or anyone else thats able to step up, we cack good creativity. And when teams come and double mark him or come and kick 10 loadsa shit out of him we realy nerd for that right side to take over. If we had another Eden like lad teams would be even more spread out than now with them having to go wide to chase the WBs. I know it will be difficult to get someone but I dont think we should penny pinch on him. It would almost be like having 3 strikers But it does make me worry a little hearing Conte say hes not thinking about bringing in transfers and the team is complete. Thats sounding like the way Mou fucked up. WE all know we could upgrade/strengthen/add STRONG depth. And its always best to strengthen when you're winning. So these next 2 windows should really make us and hopefully dominate Europe next year.

We are a totaly different team to then in all ways and if we played them now it would be a different kettle of fish.

I think its a fuckin shame Willian isnt playing cause he hates them as much as we do We know Edens going to get kicked around the pitch and its going to get as hot as normal so if we go out all Billy Big Bollox amd let them just do their normal UFC moves it will really wind them up. I see us getting a penalty. Just a interesting likkle fact is with Michael Oliver reffing we haven't lost a home league game!!!

Apparently Mounure,Shitty and them North London lot are after him too Chelsea plot move for incredible successor to John Terry https://www.kickoff.co.uk/72881/chelsea-plot-move-for-incredible-successor-to-john-terry/
