I love this post. Calm your tits, people.

What bothers me is that he hasn't had one good loan yet. Just cannot hack it among the big boys, no matter in Bolton or Dijon. Indicates that there's something very wrong with his work ethic and confidence. Pulling off world class tricks in training only gets you so far.

CSKA

What a waste the last 2 years have been for him.

Not when the girlfriend doesn't even fuck!

That supposed to be a diss? Giroud's a good striker.

He is only amazing at convincing people of his apparent usefulness. See your post as an example in this regard.

I left him out intentionally because I figured it would be understood why. He's done so well that even we couldn't turn a blind eye. Already among the world's top 5, imo.

Because we're never going to play him; he'll be sold the moment his value reaches a desirable level. We have so far failed to integrate any and all signings who've done well on loan (Kalas, Lukaku, Sturridge, de Bruyne) and that won't change with Atsu. Atsu struck me as a FFP signing when it was made and I'll be massively (pleasantly) surprised if that won't turn out to be the case eventually.

Duncan Castles is well known on twitter for having his nose up Mourinho's arse.

Why do we even have a Pepe thread?

Hugh Jackman wishes.

^ From the same blog cap linked above, Fabregas' quotes (in 2011, mind) about playing at CM : Cause for concern?

'Describe yourself in 3 words.' 'Lazy.'

This is the key for me.

Anyone else think those MARCA quotes are way too particular and frank to be from Jose himself? I mean those guys tried everything in their power to make his Madrid stay a living hell and here he goes and grants them an exclusive interview with direct, 'yes' or 'no' type answers about Courtois, Costa, Ramires and Fabregas? I'd be delighted if all that's been reported is genuine but I'm a little skeptical.

You don't seem obsessed at all.

Amazing how nicely Chelsea fans treat the players, even someone who's so shockingly inept at his only job (even Torres gets en masse cheers and chants of 'Torres! Torres!' most times he comes on).

Bloody hell, just noticed the Harlem Shake button at the bottom of the page

'No Jose, I was just kidding about wanting Ramires ... Jose, STAHP!'

Nah, RvP was just Thiabuting.

Talk about covering all bases.

I know, I just find this amusing. Far be it from me to question xpetrcechx
