Yep, deliberate time wasting towards extra time. (refusing to take kicks and all).

Busquets and Valdes picked up deliberate yellow cards against Villareal so that they would miss out against Almeria and be available against Real the game after. Both were on a yellow before this game. Typical cheating twats.

I'm sorry but comparing Drogba and Malouda is laughable. Even with all his hissy fits, pouting and drama queen antics, Drogba has done more for the club than Malouda can ever hope to. Like somebody mentioned before, Malouda has had a sum total of about 12 good months here since he arrived, I don't need to tell you Drogba's been much much better and well worth the £24 million we paid for him. And yes, Drogba became a 'superstar' because of the performances he's put in over the years, not because somebody simply decided to give him that title. Chelsea legend forever.

Makes sense. He is scouse afterall.

Guardian ........................................................................................................................................................................ I have to admit, I was a bit annoyed when he came up with all the 'I'd swim to Real if I had it my way' talk before he went. But after reading this, my respect for the man has grown very much. Best of luck at Real, Riccy. (Obviously not against us in the final though )

Welcome to the forum! Stick around, we've got a great community here (and a couple of Estonians as well! )

Indeed. For United

:goodpost: Excellent stuff, Alex!

Long live the King of Stamford Bridge!

Good things come to those who wait.

Small club resorting to attention grabbing antics.

Who?

Ballack = footballing great, even though thick-headed nutters will always refer to him as a 'nearly-man'. Scolari = loud mouth bitter idiot who fluked it with by far the most talented national side on the planet at the time.

No. The downsides have been mentioned already, so pointless repeating them. One other major disadvantage for me atleast is that he's quite predictable. Mazy run, cutting inside and getting the shot away - Robben in a nutshell.

Love the chat feature Jim One thing if you're worried about it taking away from forum activity - why not enable it for a few hours on non-match days? The forum is pretty inactive during certain times of the day when the British members are away. Maybe keep it open then?

Happy birthday mate!

Thank you for my new ava!

Me neither. But that's my order of preference if Roma don't win Scudetto Heck, anyone but Inter would do!

Giallorossi > Rossonerri > Bianconeri

What were you expecting? David Gill is on the FA board. The ban for red nose was a token ban, he was constantly on the phone with his assistants all these games. I'm not surprised anymore with the bias towards united. Sad but true.

Sturridge should play upfront. That's where a natural, instinctive finisher like him should be. Putting Sturridge and Kalou out wide is like trying to fit square pegs into round holes. Agree with everything about Zhirkov for Malouda by the way.

Very confident about this. Let's show up these bunch of fannies for what they really are - jammy, flukey twats.
