Meh

Gallasshole Fabregas Hunt the cunt The Neville bros Nani the fanny Did I mention Gallashole?

I'm concerned about Drogba's future. Not his future per se, but I fear that if he goes, the entire French speaking contingent (Malouda, Anelka, Kalou, Essien) will become unhappy and it will reflect in their attitude and performance on the pitch. Already I reckon Louda and Kalou have been ignoring Torres, which I think is down to DD being on the bench more often than not.

wait a minute...who is pirez? :|

Horrific stuff. We here have gone through this in 2004 and know how nasty this is. Deepest sympathies to the Japanese.

"It's just a game." The most untrue and irritating thing anyone could ever say.

Well it's not just you Agree with everything up there

On the evidence of the last match, yes. Even Kalou tried to get shots away while Torres was in better positions. Or maybe that's just Kalou.

Nah. 2nd or 3rd. There's no difference between the two spots really, apart from maybe a couple of million from UEFA/FA for final table position.

True, but then we didn't spunk 26 million on Ivanovic in the middle of the season to solve a 'defensive crisis'.

Cheers Killa.

Has Bosingwa signed a new deal?

We didn't buy Luiz to play him RB. The kid's top class at CB and he'll only be better once he gets more games under his belt.

Our 4-4-2 doesn't have any width. Ramires and Louda are snuck inside and it presents a problem because 1.Ivan isnt a threatening RB in the attacking sense and 2.A smart manager will pin Cole back with a winger to stop him joining in on the attack as he likes to do so often. If we're playing 4-4-2, go with Zhirkov on the left and Kalou or even Bos on the right.

Yeah that's the only thing you could pinpoint about Luiz. He literally sticks to the guy he's marking and an intelligent player could make it count against him. But he's still just played 3 games for the club so he'll settle down and adapt once he gets more game time and gets used to the pace and style of play here.

We'll smash them. We ought to. We're due one. No point being quiet-let's take the momentum from the united game and take 3 points with a fantastic performance. 3-0.

Luiz's form and Alex's injury has made this as easy choice as of now. But once Alex returns, who'd you leave out? Ivan has signed a new deal, presumably having been given a promise of a regular starting place at CB. Bosingwa's status remains unclear-we're not even sure if he will be given a new deal. Arnesen's comments about Van der Wiel throw his position under a massive cloud. Then there's Alex - he's not likely to sit around while Luiz and Ivan take turns to play next to the captain. Cole is the only untouchable so to speak. And this is all without taking into consideration the much hailed youth-Bruma and PvA. For me, in the most important games I'd go with Ivan-Luiz-Terry-Cole. Bosingwa at RB in other games with Ivan and Luiz rotating alongside Terry, form and fitness permitting. Carlo has a selection headache coming up.

Oh yay. Let's keep a Barca reject for 4 years and then sell him off to the Championship/SPL for 1 million

Sucks to be him. I suppose it's a blessing that his brother is still capable of bread winning. How much bread does 221000 £ a week get you? Takes attention away from us. Good news.

Definitely agree. We missed his energy against pool.

David Gill - ManYoo CEO, is on the FA's board. How the fuck can we expect any fairness then Trivia - He replaced David Dein in the FA board. And Dein used to be vice chairman at Arsenal.

Ramires has become indispensable now. It's a shame he's taken Mikel's place though.
