We might as well give Jamal Blackman a crack.

Honestly prefer RDM's CFC to this tripe. We would've been a lot better off if we stuck with Robbie.

Just making sure pal.

Because Lampard is close to breaking the record. It'd be nice for a club legend to break it during our lifetime, and also because Frank is likely to leave at the end of the season. It goes without saying that him and Ramires should assert themselves on the game, that's what everyone is expecting regardless.

Have you considered that tribalfootball are the most unreliable football news source going? You can't make your mind up based on what tribalfootball say.

Benayoun on the bench, brilliant.

Lol, how can you take something that was published on tribalfootball religiously? Surely you have a larger insight than that. I hate when people publish bullshit like this, especially without sources.

You don't need world class players for every position to challenge for the title.

Yup. Both sons of the legendary Marseille player Abedi Pele!

Andre Ayew would be such a good signing.

Do CFC not have any grounds for appeal or? 5 games is frankly ridiculous. Any ban is bad but 5 games? The FA are so incompetent.

ESPN UK are showing it I think.

It'll be very interesting to see what sort of team Rafa puts out today. I really, really, really hope that we don't feel a strong team today, we need to rest several players.

Wow. What rot has Rafa stopped? There was no rot. Rafa could've easily won the CWC, and could've easily been in the COC final right now too. He blew both. I'm failing to see what he's done that's so special compared to RDM. If we had RDM still here with us I doubt we would've been worse off. And it's not every fan that attacks Rafa - many didn't want him here in the first place, are we supposed to sit there and accept something we don't agree with? Christ. You're delusional.

As much as I want Mourinho here right now, I think we should let FSW stay till the end of the season (I know). Don't think the club can take another managerial upheaval ATM.

Benitez better than Mohrinho? Please, let me smoke some of that shit you're on

Why should Hazard get a three match ban for kicking the ball? Clearly the red card should just be rescinded.

Newcastle building a wicked team, wow.

I'd sign Joey just so he could do his amazing French-English accent

Still don't understand how anyone could think what Hazard did was "reckless". Here's the definition of the word: adjective heedless of danger or the consequences of ones actions; rash or impetuous: What Hazard did wasn't heedless, rash or impetuous. It's what anyone would've done. What he did wasn't stupid at all IMO. If we had SAF or Mourinho as manager they would be livid with the ref.

No we don't.

Like I said, people overreacting. Hazard does not assault the kid at all, assault is putting a big hyperbole on it. Hazard doesn't deserve a fine or to be banned. It's what anyone would've done if their team was 2-0 down with 20 minutes to go. It wasn't reckless, malicious or violent in the slightest.

Well, the guy has done Swansea no favours with this tweet: Charlie Morgan™‏@CHARLIEM0RGAN The king of all ball boys is back making his final appearance #needed #for #timewasting Surely this is all the evidence CFC need in a successful appeal.

Awful sub sorry.
