  1. I don't want Sneijder but to say he's overrated? What the hell? Is everyone overrated now? Blimey.
  2. Chelsea players react on Twitter to Jose Mourinho's return.
  3. Still doesn't make it acceptable to personally insult someone who had nothing to do with your arguments.
  4. Sam, you actually do make decent arguments considering Mourinho, I mean obviously Jose has his flaws, but come off it. No need to insult other members who are emotionally attached to a Chelsea legend. Jose isn't "just" a manager for many Chelsea fans. This is a day where one of the best managers in the world, who coincidentally is Chelsea through and through, has been reappointed. Don't see why you have to be so bitter about it. Cheer up, have a beer, and enjoy this beautiful day.
  5. Agree with most nominations in here but I'd like to throw in Jype as well. Think he's been one of the better posters this month.
  6. Will respond to this later mate.
  7. He only had 3 months at a fully finished Cobham. Cobham is even better now, so he'll definitely enjoy it even more.
  8. Blues News - but they've replaced it with his first interview now!
  9. I think it might be announced at 6.30 on CTV guys.
  10. So hang on, you're willing to give Oscar a chance to prove his critics wrong but don't see anything wrong with selling one of our top 3 players this season who's on the cusp to give his best years for us? I really don't understand that too much. To basically blame Luiz for that is naive. Our defence is one defender away from being pretty much perfect and you know it. Our defence is one of the most stable areas if our team, it doesn't require a shake up whatsoever. You're looking for that rock in defence but why you're looking for that in Luiz, who's an aggressor, like Carvalho, one that tries to regain the ball back by nicking it in front of the striker which in turn sets up a great counter attack. He's done that numerous times. That's the sort of CB he is. He's not your JT or Vidic - that's the sort of defender we need to compliment Luiz. I don't understand why you're looking at Luiz to be that type of CB when he clearly has attributes that suit him better as the aggressor. And to justify him being sold because our fans seem to think his best position is in midfield (not in part due to the media's constant campaign to play him there) is nonsense as well. Luiz is irreplaceable IMO, as there aren't many CB's out there better than him. Why you'd get rid of a top CB who's on the cusp of his glory years is just absurd to me. I find it hilarious how Barcelona's interest in him isn't waking people up. Luiz clearly has it in him to be one if the best CBs around which has been clear this season - Barcelona's interest should validate that even more. Why people would accept selling him is beyond me. Money is not a problem for a club like CFC. Unless it's a ridiculously absurd offer, we shouldn't be selling. Again I say, why fix what isn't broken? PS: Sorry for any spelling/grammar mistakes - on my iPhone.
  11. Thank you. Luiz has actually been our least error prone defender this season but people can't seem to think for themselves. Bunch of sheep.
  12. Have you never seen Kompany during his initial years? He was just as "error prone" as Luiz was, looking to dribble the ball out, quite bad at positioning. Now look. Luiz is on the cusp with us right now, about to reach his prime. Why you'd sell anyone who's about to give you his best years sounds like bullshit to me.
  13. So you want to sell off a player who's got potential? Lets sell Lukaku, Oscar, Hazard as well for a decent price seeing as they haven't reached their full potential yet. Nonsense. You don't go out there to fix what isn't broken.
  14. Not a dig at you Ryan, but can anyone actually collate a list of Luiz errors that have led to goals? I think it's very, very over exaggerated.
  15. Reports are now saying Neymar went for 50m in the end.
  16. Dzeko can easily score 25+ goals a season, he scores bags at City even if he doesn't start most of the time.I like the idea simply because it gives Lukaku more of a chance to develop nicely and be our number 1 striker.
  17. Had a good game. Still England's top talent.
  18. Around £20m is the fee top clubs pay for most squad players.
  19. Wouldn't mind Dzeko at all especially if we can get rid of Torres. Would allow Lukaku to grow whilst having him around. Dzeko is underused by City and very underrated. He's a great striker IMO. Dzeko - Lukaku - Ba is a great strike force IMO.
  20. Just 7 days ago he said he couldn't wait to work with Mourinho. He's probably just tired at the constant questions.
  21. Nope. If that's the case I'd rather give Lukaku a shot.
