LDN Blue

We may have just cost each other the title :unsure:

Too true!

Carlos Puyol

Not worth £40milion.

I'm quite annoyed I never got to see the likes of Pele, Maradona, Eusubio or even Charlton play. Ronaldo & Zidane are the greatest player I've ever seen play.

Was that a 30-yarder?

I doubt it. I hope this injury makes him refuse the ACN to be honest, though I fear he'll return to int. duty this summer. I read an article before in which apparently Essien was guaranteed by Roman he'd still be here next season, so who knows..

To be honest, if it is just a minor tweak, I don't really mind. He's not been the same by any stretch of the imagination. Like True_Blue said, we've got 2 other players who (imo) are a better combination for our squad right now.. Mikel Ramires - Lampard Love it Hope Essien returns as the Bison, come August.

Rest of the season = 4 games. They try to make it sound so over dramatic

Would be a great tribute to the Cat! It's a shame the chance to meet him was before you could get it, he would be touched to sign it!

José Mourinho couldn't even handle his ego.. That's saying something

Looks good with the new kit then! The white that comes through to the back compliments the number style well

LOL. The further reading killed me

Wait.. Are we actually linked with this guy or what?

Hopefully he did!

LOOL oops

Only because he slated them in his autobiography. That's the only reason they boo/hate him. Torres has done nothing to warrant such hatred. He has not bashed the fans, he hasn't dissed the club, he has kissed our badge or anything. He's kept his head low and got on with his job. Despicable.

I wonder if they like him yet?

Sinclair should've given him that penalty

I really like how they've put their crest embedded in those stripes! Very unique.

Do we need him?

To be honest, I hold reservations about my "worst" list. Our own history has taught us to be better than that and allow some players time. Balotelli will come good for City. Though, since his signing he's failed to show it. I still remember that game vs Everton where he basically sulked for the whole game till he was finally taken off as a sub. Then there's the infamous red card in their Europa League match which cost them that game (to an extent). Off-field troubles have not helped either, like bust ups at the training ground and reported problems with Mancini. It's only based on his attitude, that I've put him there to be honest. But he's only 20. Plenty of time to change that..

And if Guardiola fails to lift any trophies in his first season.. What then? Will Roman be patient and allow long-term stability?
