Yes it is up to him and that is what is giving me hope. Barca can pay the money required to activate the transfer clause in his contract which will allow them to talk to him and offer him a contract. It is all up to Oriol to decide where does his future belong.

Unless he returns to Barca You are right though, he has absolutely amazed and I really like him. I hope he stays.

I really don't understand a lot of the CPO and the club situation, but I do hope it ends well for both the club and the fans. It's a tough choice we are gonna have to make in the near future regarding the stadium.

I have a feel he'll simply explode tomorrow and destroy Arse. Let's see if my feeling is right.

I know a lot of fans hold Stamford Bridge in a very special place in their heart and that a lot of them would be broken if we moved, but if the club wants to continue growing and most important to remain what it is today, we do need a move to a bigger stadium. I've never been to the Bridge as I live in the foreign country so it is not hard for me to be objective and I have to say I am disappointed that the 75% weren't met.

He was alright. Solid is the word. Still, could've done better at the goal we conceded. His runs from defense are very good though. There was one awesome through ball to Ivanovic which he couldn't reach.

I'm disappointed Swoopz...I would've given you rep even if you posted the source and made it look like you only pasted it. Whatever, we all make mistakes, just don't make 'em again

We have a big mastermind behind everything who has probably watched over 20 videos of recent Arsenal games and has probably devised a top secret tactic Anyway, we are a much better team, but in the end it comes down to who scores more, and we were a better team against United too...Still Torres is in form, Sturridge is also, Lamps has been hitting, Mata and Ash have been rested and Cech is being Cech again. I do expect a victory, but not an easy one.

I know I am and I hate doing it, especially to someone like you, but I do believe I am right. He stated his opinion and you have sworn at him for it. Agree with LDN B.

I don't like posts like that either, but you don't need to get offensive. It's just an opinion.

Good one mate

Oh City and United would be awesome. It would draw the media and tire their players. We really deserve an easy opponent for this one.

Come on guys calm down. First, everyone has the right to voice their opinion and there's no need to curse at them. This is the point of the forum, to exchange opinions and discuss them. And second, Justin Stan stop making a victim out of yourself every time. Escaping Leaving is never a solution. Honestly, I find AVB amusing. He is full of faith, optimism and he trusts all of his players. He isn't afraid to risk and big names aren't safe under him. He's passionate and emotional and you would think his life depends on the match looking at him on the sidelines. The press doesn't like him obviously as he doesn't reveal anything and defends his club and players. Add to that the already negative attitude they have towards us and voilà!

Just finished watching the CTV rip. Holy hell that was quite a match 2 red cards, 2 missed penalties, extra time, 1 crossbar, 1 post, late goal, 3 wonderful saves from Cech...and we won Really, the team spirit under AVB is absolutely stunning, and what made me also pleased is that Everton struggled to create chances when we backed up after Ross got sent of. Nice to see a good defensive display. Oriol has been once again really good and I think he deserves a league start in the near future. Josh had a good game, but was unfortunate again. Bertrand was good and solid and I'd like to see more from him this season. To summarize, a good victory, not the easiest one, but we're through and it's good to see the lads never giving up. Big thanks to didiforever for his rip Oh, and I nailed the scoreline in my prediction

Tough choice, but we would've lost the game if Cech didn't save what he did. Legend. Oriol once again magnificent! Keep it up lad! Ivanovic, Alex, Luiz, Bertrand, Malouda and Mikel also did well. Anelka looked tired though, and Kalou wasn't involved too much. Shame Josh was sacrificed again

Is something wrong with the votes? I can't find Chris Foy... Lampard.

It is supposed to be here. We shall see.

No way CFC would pay that much. I'd be disappointed if he went to PSG

Mikel or Romeu - Mikel is good, but Romeu has shown that he is a immense talent and doesn't hold up our play as much as Mikel does. McEachran or Ramires - Josh won't be replacing Ramires, but I'll say Josh anyway as he is the most talented young English midfielder along with Wilshere. Sturridge or Lukaku - With Torres and Lukaku Sturridge won't get a chance as a striker, so Lukaku. Drogba or Torres - Torres. Younger and on form. Ivanović or Bosingwa - Bane is a better RB simply. Mata or Malouda - No explanation needed Turnbull or Hilario - Experience. Alex or Luiz - Offers more to the team and is also younger. Bertrand or van Aanholt - Seems a bit ahead of Bertrand, especially when it comes to attacking. Lampard or Meireles - Very hard. If Lamps can play like he used to then him. You should've defined prefer more clearly though.

stupid...can't believe I won't be able to watch the damn game...and some idiot will probably spoil the game for me before I can find a recorded match (if there is any). also, I won't be able to watch the Arsenal game...that's 2 games missed in 4 days

Oh Johnny my man I feel your pain

Incredible player. Shame about that release clause and the fact that he plays for Porto who hate our guts Oh, and the new hairstyle? Fugly.

Hahaha that dude! Never stops surprising me Love him

From Kenya? Nice Welcome mate and enjoy your stay! :cfc:

^ It's official, Vidic has retired from Serbia. Just heard it on TV. I really hope Bane becomes the new captain!
