Peace.

No at all.

Yes !!! We will finally be able to instantly buy some (average) players, just to emulate Liverpool !

I'd take what Wilkins said with a pinch of salt. Even though he has been sacked, he stays fidel to Chelsea and never said and say a bad word toward us. So I don't think he would have said that Ancelotti didn't have his word in transfers, on purpose to avoid to add fuel to fire...

Well, if our transfert policy is to buy our stars look-a-like, I've got an idea. We should buy real talent for cheap and then do them some plastic surgery. It will be cheaper than £20m.

Don't cry, we still can negotiate that, if you see what I mean :eyebrows: ps : I was joking huh ^^

You won't get my vote, you will be a bad mod, nobody listen to you :lol:

Yes Mikel knows to dribble. Don't get me wrong, I ain't saying he is Messi. But we didn't see him to do so under Ancelotti's area because the latter man gave him the order to stay deep with the defense.

Here what I could have understand : It is not a lot... Can't understand more...

I'm agreed with Madmax here. He may give the ball away a few times, but this year Lampard and Essien gave the ball away far more time than Mikel. And at the opposite of them two, Mikel doesn't look like a hopeless newborn when under pressure.

Thanks Mr. Degraen ! I'd rather us to give up on him than loan him to a belgium team. No disrespect here, but the Jupiler League isn't enough good, he needs to play somewhere else. By the way, Vitess would be also a shitty move... So, the better would be to keep him at the Bridge, and if our board is so desperate to loan him, then loan him to a mid-table team of the EPL. Otherwise we will never hear of this guy again.

Same for me. After all, we did the same thing on the home kit last year, with this out-of-place red on the collar..

^ It's too late for this. We already have this tag since we bought Torres.

Yup. To be honest I'm become worried of that... At the moment we doesn't seem to be bothered to get a right back, the only winger we are linked with will likely be loaned... And we will get another forward and maybe another center back (Godin)... At the moment it doesn't look as good as I expected and hoped. I hope this is because the mercato has yet to open entirely...

Piazon is a second striker.

A ) I wouldn't say it is because of his suspension that he has to started to play badly. Neither because he has integrated a team which was playing poorly. We got to keep in mind that during this period, he picked up an injury to his toes. I think it was the straw that broke the camel back, ie his body has suffered from injuries too many times. B ) Wrong. Our « Bad Moment ® » started well before the Sunderland game. Actually, it started against Aston Villa. We got a draw there in a poorly way, then we have won against the Wolf in the same way. Against BBurn we were very lucky to not lose. And then Liverpool made us look like fools. So, our bad form started before Wilkins got the sack, before the Sunderland game and before Essien got that red card. C ) I don't believe Ramires was awful... He was more the scapegoat than anything else...

Forget him mate. He has done just one good season at Bordeaux, and it was when they win La Ligue 1. After that, he was average during his second season there, and since he is at Lyon, he is a ghost. At Bordeaux he was good because it was the case of the "big fish in the small pond". He doesn't seem to handle the pressure at Lyon. And to be honest, when he was tagged has the new Zidane, it wasn't because he had the potential to become so, but that was because of the sweet dream of having found the new Zidane. In other words, he was way too much overrated. I am pretty surprised you mention him. He was a good player at the level of La Ligue 1, and that's that. And if I say "he was", this is because since Knysna he is really poor.

Do you mean a team of the level of the UCL or a team based in Europe ? At 18 he didn't even playing for a professional club !!

This topic going on the same pattern than last year. First, we are strongly linked with Neymar. Then, the deal seems to be done according to some journos. After that, the deal seems to be more and more unlikely because of the price asked for and some quote from X. Afterward, we start to say he can go else where. Finaly, we will very soon be saying "good riddance, we have X (who is better)".

Of course no. But when he (Drogba) was 18 years-old, he didn't cost £20m and he wasn't dubbed as the new [enter a name].

:censored: That's really awful. I didn't like the orange away kit, but this kit makes me love it... This turquoise is pretty much ugly. Would have been better if it was all in black... At least, there is no stupid color on the badge. i don't know who has designed our kits this season, but he needs to get the sack alongside our medical staff and some of our yes men. lol

I wouldn't understand the board if we loan him...

I guess with Torres' wage it won't decrease... And that's why I am concerned with the buy of Sneijder.

I can't guarantee you anything, though... Long time I didn't deal with spanish ^^ I'll do that tomorrow, I'm too tired currently.

Will try mate...

I'm fully agreed with the fact we do not need Lukaku. But my post wasn't on purpose to say he was a good signing. I did notice some signs of impatience because we haven't yet to sign someone, some comparisons with Liverpool which has signed Henderson, etc... I was just stating the fact we weren't inactive.
