Don't know why everyone is having a go at the Chelsea board for trying to buy at the last minute that's what I do every Christmas

There are claims on Twitter - Yes that is the worst possible way to start a sentence.

Chelsea are like a desperate man at a nightclub everyone turning you down and by the end of the night you'll have got nothing.

Sanchez to City, Mahrez to Arsenal is the and I use the word rumour advisedly going round.

He hadn't turned down a contract at Arsenal until a couple of days ago so what could anyone do ?, Chelsea get linked with loads of players all the time. He could quite easily have seen his contract out for another year or signed a new one we put in a bid Arsenal agreed the fee he turned us down end of.

Massive overreaction.

I agree but it boils down to the Ox's personal choice nothing that the board can do about that. I'm slightly on the fence about this he's a good but not great player so I can't say I'm devastated about him not joining us. What I'm fucked off about is the Mickey Mouser's are going to start a chant about him turning us down like our Willian one. He's been compared to James Milner and I think that's a good comparison someone who's adequate in a lot of positions but not good enough to hold down a fixed spot.

There's been rumours he wanted to leave but he refused to sign a new contract only a few days ago what exactly are Chelsea supposed to have done ?. If we approached him outside of the transfer window we would get done for tapping up so your point about enquiring about his situation is invalid. Bottom line he was offered a deal by us he turned it down it happens.

He turned down a new contract at Arsenal a few days ago so how is that a long time ?. It's only become apparent overnight that he didn't want to play wing back so again how can you blame the board ?. If someone doesn't want to join Chelsea that's their choice nothing that the board can do about it.

How can you blame the board for the Ox turning us down ?. He only turned down a new contract last week and out of personal or professional reasons he decides he doesn't want to play for us that's his choice. If you agree to buy a house you're ready to pay up and your wife says at the last minute I've changed my mind you can't blame the estate agents can you?.

DDA said and yes it sticks in the craw that Gooners were getting ripped off and he felt sorry for fans who paid their hard earned cash and were getting treated like shit. You said you had no sympathy what I'm saying is as a football fan I hate to see the man in the street get fucked over, And I won't reply again mate I'm going to be spending my time researching and watching Infonet Tallinn.

Hammer down my sentimental views ha ha. Well at least I've got something to be sentimental about maybe one day when you actually attend a Chelsea game and put your your money where your mouth is and have a few experiences to talk about then come back to me. You're just dismissing something you know fuck all about. Who are the top team in Estonia these days by the way ? such a hotbed of football I could comment on Estonian football but I've never been oh wait

Because regardless of what team you support making sacrifices especially these days where football is so expensive and so is transport you feel a sort of kinship to other football fans because you've done it in the past or still doing it now. Me and my mates used to drink in a pub in Paddington after Chelsea games in the late 80's. We were shit and in the second division but in this pub you'd get West Ham fans QPR fans and Gooners even a few yids and there would never be a hint of trouble just working class blokes swapping stories and getting pissed. This was a time just after Hillsborough when football was if Thatcher had her way consigned to the history books. So if I meet someone who might not support the same team as me I will respect them as a fan and then spend the night taking the piss out of them because they don't support the famous CFC.

The reason the BBC don't report anything to the last minute is they'd rather pay millions on the talentless Chris Evans then pay a couple of people to post updates on their sports website.

No I don't you just need to spend a few quid and time following Chelsea to see what it's like or any football team for that matter. How about popping down to your local team in Estonia and start following them home and away. You can't be sympathetic or unsympathetic to any football fan unless you've experienced it yourself. That's what I mean by sitting in judgement in your armchair.

So you just sit in judgement in your armchair thousands of miles away. All football fans get treated like shit mate Chelsea fans included. People up and down England spend money change work shifts and support teams that have no chance of winning anything. Maybe if you spent in some cases half your weekly wage following a team you might have a bit more sympathy. I hate every football club in the country apart from Chelsea but respect fans who make sacrifices to watch their team.

Exactly. I'm not on Twatter but I could ask any of my mates to post Chelsea stuff on Twatter and I'm sure someone would post it on here.

60,000 Arsenal fans and he picks the same blokes every week he's making them look a laughing stock while he makes money out of it. He's totally disingenuous and getting sponsored by a betting company is taking the piss. The old bloke Claude (about the same age as me !) is a decent bloke but his anguish and despair he's playing up to the camera now. There's also that bloke who says fam and blud all the while a he's a massive tit he could quite easily get other fans to interview. There's nothing immoral about it but he wouldn't last five minutes at Stamford Bridge. Here's a vid of what some Gooners think.

People go on about these Arsenal fans and no doubt they are pricks of the highest order. But I can't understand why that Robbie geezer doesn't get a hard time. I noticed this shit is now being sponsored by Ladbrokes he's making money hand over fist by making Arsenal fans looking stupid. I know some Gooners who really hate this and as a football fan I don't blame them. He keeps asking the same fans the same loaded questions knowing full well he's going to get idiotic answers. Put it on Youtube and have ever every football around the world laughing their bollocks off while he drives around in a Rolls Royce. If I'd gone to Anfield and seen Chelsea lose 4-0 and some geezer stuck a microphone in my face I'd shove it up his arse.

No offence son but who gives a fuck what that slimey twat Piers Morgan thinks.

Pep really irks me such a cold charmless bastard.

Sums it up. The top two English teams get the hardest draws...United scrape through and can walk into the last 16

It might be regarded as a Mickey Mouse cup now but if you supported Chelsea when we were shit you would have given your left bollock for us to win the League cup. It might not mean anything to overseas fans but it does to us long suffering older ones. And the term Mickey Mouse has been used for decades and not just about football.

Not as odd as this. I remember watching this and thinking who's the twat with the trapdoor haircut.

Shouldn't tempt fate with this sort of thing but it's still pretty impressive. Chelsea have never lost when they have been leading at half-time under Conte in the Premier League (won 20, drawn two
