Yeah I just zoomed out. Everything is aliened properly when doing so..

LMAO!!

Banksy?

Is the display fixed how it now? With members pictures & info not under the name, in the section which is now blank?

Yeah got to agree with BlueLion, Max. Finally Capello's selecting players, because they're performing well (it remains to be seen about Cole). I hope Welbeck actually starts. But not at the expense of Rooney & Bent so seeing him come off the bench would be alright too. Sturridge will get his chance, when he proves himself in the league.

Not bad, not bad. Better than last year. On course for uni next year (fingers crossed)! Yourself, mate?

If that is true, then the opposite is also true: that the greatest love we can show our children is the attention we pay them, the time we take for them. Maybe we serve children the best simply by noticing them." - Mumia Abu Jamal

Yeah. We do tend to over analyse things sometimes. I'm guilty of it too, but I do urge that everyone just wait a month or 2 more to see progress.

34points with him! Fuck yeah

Consider it a good thing tbh. I'd rather keeping Sturridge injury free. We know Cole & Terry will represent Chelsea anyway. Wondering if Josh is being called up for the u21 game on Wednesday though.

Good post. Just look at United every season! They start slow and after Jan they kick into a league winning side.

Not writing him off at all. He can still be a good striker and still could get us a lot of goals. But the form that we did pay £50million for, will not be returning to him. This I am, disappointingly, sure of.

Di Maria, Marcelo & Coentrao in the same starting XI? Interesting from Mou.

I think the players just need time to get used to each other. We've got some new faces in and a new philosophy of off-the-ball play. Things will start to click soon and we'll see some good, positive, attacking football soon enough.

Might as well keep Malouda around then and hope he'll start.. Playing.

We will definitely finish above scum. Even they know it.

I suppose so. I just think we'd be better buying a proper left-winger (such as Perriera for £15million) and then make Mata our playmaker.

Good to start with a clean sheet

Who made Rooney captain then?

:pwned:

Cech Bosingwa - Luiz - Terry - Cole Mikel Ramires - Lampard - Mata Sturridge - Lukaku Would be really good to see. Ramires has enough energy and skill to play on the right and with Bosingwa making his full-back runs, Ramires' defensive abilities will make our right side quite strong. We already know Mata's qualities and he must start this game. There's no reason for him not to. With Torres' form becoming a worry & Drogba sidelined for a while it's the perfect time for Daniel Sturridge to make his long-waited come back to the squad. Luiz is also a must for me. I must commemorate Ivanovic for his performance yesterday. Really gave me confidence when Hilarious started messing up (as usual). We can only hope Cech will make a quick recovery in the next 2-or-so weeks. An Oriol cameo in the last 15-20minutes would also be nice.

It would make sense, the plan b. But what you said after would be good too. To have Modric and Mata in the middle would make our midfield very strong. Then having Perreira on the left would not be such a liability because Mata can help him, knowing Modric is still in the centre keeping the midfield strong. It would be ideal to hear we sign Modric & Perreira in the next 3 days but even if we get Perriera over Modric, it will still be beneficial to the squad. I personally think, Mata's quality is wasted on the left wing.

Needs a few more seasons to establish himself. I'm sure he can do that with Romelu gone.
