Naked Mole Rat

I was referring to what I was about to ask. Anyway, a bold opinion is still an opinion. You won't be able to strengthen your point or convince people you're telling the truth by claiming that your opinions are facts. To be honest, I think it makes you look stupid more than anything because you should have figured out how to distinguish a fact from an opinion when you were five. I'm sure I'm not the only one who gets annoyed when he reads a YouTube comment that goes like "[insert opinion]. FACT." I don't actually think that you don't know the difference between a fact and an opinion. I just wanted to point out that you were making a mistake. Also, one more thing. I don't appreciate it when people throw sarcastic remarks at me like you did, and that's another habit you probably don't want to develop, because it really can bring out the ugly side of some people.

This has little to do with Mikel, but do you even know what a fact is?

I'm also interested to hear what he has to say, but I doubt he has anything shocking to share. At any rate, I can't see how generating media hype on what he's about to say would benefit him.

148 pages! Amazing! Normally, I wouldn't go around saying "They won't listen to you!" because not every discussion needs to have a useful output. Not that I'm trying to make that point here either, but, with Rafa's case, isn't it pretty obvious that he'll leave exactly when his contract expires? I don't think his future at Chelsea is worth any real (heated) debate.

Dream on. Jonathan Walters is simply too good for Chelsea. He's the second best player to ever roam the pitch. The first is this beautiful man. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gw9Kl0qvjyo

Aren't Taarabt and Diakite leaving for ACON as well?

I just found out that Liverpool hasn't won a single game against a team standing above them in the league table this season.

The R's are so entertaining to watch. Those shirts flying from the stands were pretty hilarious.

Cech doing his part in this wonderful passing display.

That was outrageous from Hazard. That wasn't the first time I've seen him give the ball away so cheaply either.

At least when you're standing in a wall waiting for a free kick to be taken you fully expect to get hit. Van Persie was completely unaware and vulnerable, and that can sometimes be crucial. For example, when Drogba collided with Ruddy during the Norwich game, he was struck by some force in the air, but I don't think that would have been nearly enough to knock him out had he been fully expecting to be hit. Of course, there's also the issue of how he was hit, because Drogba was turning his head toward Ruddy as he was hit, but similarly, van Persie could have turned back as Williams booted the ball and could have been hit in a much more dangerous manner. And like Ramzi was saying, Williams could have missed his kick and booted the back of van Persie's head or maybe even his neck. Anything could have happened in that situation and things could have turned out much worse for van Persie. Would he have died? Not very likely, but he certainly could have been hurt very badly on a different day. Having said that, I'm not very happy with Ferguson, either. That man is overenthusiastic when bad things happen to his players or his team, but he's very often been disgustingly apathetic about the wrongdoings of his players to other players.

I heard photos of people taken when they're not aware reveal their true character.

Christmasm.

This guy.

If this is at least partially because of what he did to van Persie, I have to say this thread is a complete disgrace.
