André Ayew is a winger, definitely not what we need.

Atletico Madrid will not part with Radamel Falcao in January, but have hinted that they could be persuaded to cash-in on the highly-rated striker next summer. "€60 million for Falcao would solve all the economic problems at Atletico," general manager Gil Marin told COPE Radio. "I can say for sure, though, that he will stay with us until the end of the season. Not only will he stay, but so will all the players that the coach wants to stay. "We will fight to perform a miracle which is what we are doing with what we have available. "In Europe there are 50 clubs with more income than we have. If we were to sell Falcao for €60 million then that would cover our debts." "If Atletico do not qualify for the Champions League or cannot afford to meet his wage demands then I do not think that Real Madrid could afford him either," he continued. "We have to do impossible things and take risks so that the fans can have the team that they want. It is difficult to maintain." http://www1.skysport...-Radamel-Falcao

Actually their back up for Nasri and Silva is very poor, considering how deep they are in strikers, full backs and midfielders. You dont always need more than one AM back up if you play with two in your line up, but Sinclair is nowhere near the highest level. but thats the player they wanted so...

I read that he went to this game for Malaga's Isco, not for Falcao.

I haven't read what he said about the "History" thing, if he did say it like that than its stupid by him, but i cant blame him for what he said about our management and our owner himself. Now things are going well, but back then we all hated Roman's decision. The guy got hurt by the club, rightly so.

realy? didnt heard of those... like what?

So... why exactly you are all hating AVB now? because i remember pretty good that almost all of us went crazy when he got sacked. Is it because he went to Spurs? thats kind a childish. He only been here for 7-8 months, and its a good job for him. Or is it because he benched Lampard? again, i remember 90% of the forum agreeing with this move and seeing it as a 'brave' move back then. ahmhypocritesahm.

Source? i realy dont think they will go for him, its too ridiculous as they already have 4 top class strikers, whice is too much already.

But WHY would they sell him in January? what's the rush?

Simple questions for you guys: 1. Is he better than Torres? 2. Is he good enough to be a starting striker for us? I know we havent seen enough of him as a striker, but your thoughts... I think its a healthier topic than Falcao/Cavani.... as they wont come in january. we need to know that.

Wow, couldnt disagree more. Its the last thing i want in Chelsea, a player that will look like he's playing in a different team. I can honestly say that i dont want Ronaldo here even if we can get him for free (and i dont hate him or something, rate him very much). But, i do agree that he can be a bit more selfish. Shoot more, taking players on a bit more..

Off topic- just looked at our next 10 matches after this one... and its very scary. Shakhtar x2, Man United x2, Tottenham Away, Liverpool, Juventus away, Man City. Other two are Swansea away (tough as well), and WBA away. Good thing is that our next 10 games after those are very 'easy' compare to this.

I dont have a real problem with it, but i dont understand why this is one of the 'hottest' topics in the forum when we're in october?

haha i love ashely... and it will be perfect if he'll fuck them up and retire. just hope the club change is way and offer him a decent cotract. i can see him flying to Madrid or Paris... they will both offer him the same money and on at least 2 years. we should close this quick.

Realy hope Sturridge will start this one, any chance you think?

Scored some goal tonight... typical Meireles: http://www.101greatgoals.com/gvideos/raul-meireles-super-strike-fenerbache-v-moenchengladbach/

1. Lineup vs. Arsenal 2. Premier League 3. Maybe get a new CDM in january, but im open to see more of Mikel when he's playing with Ramires, till now he's doing well so im not too sure about that. As on the strikers thing... depends on Torres and Sturridge production in the coming months. I think Sturridge could surprise us. 5. I think we can win the Premier League, and im optimistic- right now i think we'll win it. CL... hard to say, depends on the draw, but we can get as far as anyone imo. 6. Hope Sturridge will get chances as a striker, and for Marin- think he will be an important squad player, looking forword to see him.

First, i got to say that we're by far the best english club in Champions League games. Last year results for english clubs were not a surprise. And City are looking very poor, its not just that Mancini was outclassed by Klop - which was expected, until now their defense and especially their central midfield is just awful. Plus their players dont have enough urgency, looking very apathetic at times, and its not the first time. last season they almost lost the title with the same attitude. And the responsibility is mostly on Mancini. I dont think City will ever get very far in this competition with him.

Whats with Benzema? he's definitely not in the level of the other players you mentioned. For me he's like top 8-10 only in strikers.

Mata is in such a great form, and his numbers are just great. The Boss of this team.

No its not, its called tactics. You need that in big games (unless you want our games to look like the 2nd half of Man u - Spurs game, or our 5-3 from last season).

Best defender for us today imo. Realy good game from him, i just love his tackels in the middle of the pitch when there is a pass to an attcker. He's like storming at him and take the ball... off course somtimes he's fouling this way, but today he did it nicely like 3-4 attacks in a row. Arsenal got frustrated by it. Its annoys me that when he have quiet, good games like today the media doesnt mention it. He have alot of does, thats not fair to him.

What Dembele, Sandro, Vertonghen done so far in this game... its a rape! Bravo Spurs. perfect game so far from them.

I think so too... wish they'll all start the game. And i dont know why some have said that a midfield of Ramires and Mikel (and Oscar, even if he's playing in front of them he's tracking back and press well) wont be enough to deal with Arsenal's midfield of Arteta, Diabi and Cazorla? I think they'll have a hard time getting through us. Thing is i think Lampard will start..

Is Sturridge fit for this one?
