  1. Please. That's disrespectful to MJ & Wilt Chamberlain. Lebron is head and shoulders the most offensive threat in the league right now also.
  2. That's not the argument though - the argument is that he scores against the lesser sides.
  3. how is collating a list of his goals "hating"? They are just the facts. How the hell is he the most accomplished player in the squad? You can't be that deluded? Torres' pace isn't the same anymore - and to use Spain as an argument is quite funny because they pass around the box even more than we do. Torres doesn't even get called up to Spain anymore. Spain use a false 9 system, they don't even play a with a striker. I'm tired of these excuses now. 2 years of subpar performances and people still have the nerve to insult the rest of our squad just for Torres' sake.
  4. He's a right winger right? Since we still don't have an established right winger at the club, if he does come and impresses in pre-season, he has a great opportunity to make the spot his own.
  5. Lewy is the most realistic buy simply due to his price. I would be happy with his purchase, but that means Lukaku must go out on loan for another year. It's up the our new manager - if he wants a new striker at a realistic price, Lewandowski is definitely top of the list. We'll obviously need to ship out Torres as well though for any sort of move to happen.
  6. Brilliant job in collating this list. This is quite sad tbh.
  7. That's what I think to. What better way to leave Real than to leave them with a CL trophy? It would be classic Jose.
  8. Nah, I wouldn't have Luiz and Hummels as CB. It's either one or the other. Luiz/Hummels & Kompany is a lot more solid.
  9. I agree you need luck but you can't compare what we did to what they did, that's what I'm trying to get at essentially. Don't think because they beat Malaga in added time that their name is on the trophy, it wasn't as special as ours or even Liverpool in Istanbul. I don't think they'll win it tbh, especially if they have to face Real or Barcelona in the semis, or even Bayern (who are looking likely to win against Juve). They haven't been as lucky as us. Malaga is a side they should be beating anyway, it's not like they slew a giant.
  10. Hmm, I don't think so. We were far more luckier last season. We defied bigger odds. You said it so yourself - coming back from 4-1 down against Napoli, beating Barcelona away with 10 men after being 2-0 down, facing Bayern in their own stadium... You can't compare BvB luckily beating Malaga (who aren't even as good as Napoli, Barcelona or Bayern) to that sorry.
  11. It really depends how kind their draw is to them. If they get Barcelona or Real I think they'll struggle but you never know in football.
  12. Mate, I fully agree, but at the end of the day, if you take both offsides away - Dortmund win. It was shocking officiating for sure but you shouldn't be surprised. We as Chelsea fans know how poor these UEFA officials can be.
  13. I hope not. I think it's okay that Messi won it last season because he did break the record for amount of goals scored and stuff but this season I think Ronaldo should have it, he's been robbed too often.
  14. Don't they usually do the semi-finals draw at the quarter final draw? Or have they changed it this year?
  15. You're right but to be fair, BvB did have an offside goal against them as well. Even though the linesman did bottle it I think it sort of cancels out if you get me.
  16. If Ronaldo leads his team to the CL trophy then he deserves it.
  17. Did you just see that from Modric? Orgasmic.
