  1. Welbeck is benefitng from playing in the position he has been playing all his life. Sturidge is being converted into a RW and there are going to be growing pains along the way. He isn't going to play through the middle like he has done most of his young career. You all know I rate McEachran very highly and he is without doubt our future but Cleverly is 3 years older and has way more experience. Man Utd fans will no doubt claim their two players are better and we will obviously say ours are better. For the record I really like Welbeck and think he will be a England international for a long time...hopefully so will Sturridge.
  2. So you have the choice of taking one player from any team in the league, who do you go for and why? My choice is David Silva. Simply an amazing player who is exactly what we need i.e. vision, technical skill and final pass ability.
  3. I know, it's very pleasing. Now it's just about giving them a go!
  4. Good post. I just want to see us have some sort of plan for now and the future and at the very least compete seriously even if we don't win anything.
  5. Coceding a sloppy goal in the first 5 minutes and then playing like crap for the rest of the half. You think people are happy to pay £60+ to watch Kalou miscontrol the ball? It's a two way street mate. The fans will cheer but don't expect to charge ridiculous prices, serve up rubbish football and people to be happy.
  6. Essien's career is over in my opinion. Three big injuries and two bad knees. We've signed Romeu and Ramires and will try to sign Modric. I think the club themselves know that Essien is never going to get back to his level of 2006. Lampard is nearly at the end (already there if you ask me) and Ramires will be a very valuable squad player.
  7. Sod it, I'd rather play McEachran and Modric together in midfield. Mata, McEachran, Modric! The three M's bring creativity and technical football back to Stamford Bridge! Might even get a diamond going and get Mikel in. Mikel, Mata, Modric, McEachran. Marvellous.
  8. Spot on. You look at a player like David Silva who plays precise one-two touch football and he is creating play for City. Lampard doesn't care about that. He just wants to run into the box and get on the end of something. He is supposed to be the playmaker but is playing like a forward in midfield.
  9. Excellent signing. Hopefully we get one or even two more players in as well.
  10. They always do. Unsurprisingly Chelsea paid the most in 2009-2010 - http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/9244286.stm
  11. Fair enough. I'm just sick and tired of seeing the same style of boring, uncreative sideways football.
  12. The commentator said during the game 'the manager changes but the players always stay the same'. It is absolute insanity starting a game with Kalou and expecting him to play well.
  13. Gotta agree with you there. It's still the same old same old. How much can the manager really improve things when it's the same exact team as last season.You can't teach an old dog new tricks.
  14. Good second half? You must be having a laugh. Although that just confirms how sh*t he was in the first if the second was an improvement. Nothing will imrpove with him in the team every week.
  15. Stll the same team so still the same performances. If we're being entirely honest with each other Lampard is now one of our biggest problems. He is slow and just passes sideways. He has no energy, speed and doesn't make progressive passes. He was worse than Kalou in my opinion.
  16. I just like to see us get better and younger McEachran, Piazon, Mikel, Sturridge, Oriol, Luiz, Ramires etc all under 24 years old!
  17. He might not be the winger we all want but he's a very good young player. He is the best player from the 3rd best team in Spain. That tells you he is a very good and at only 23 he will get even better.
  18. That's already an improvement! We'll forgive him for being a bit hit and miss with his passing. I'd rather a player who sees the pass and can sometimes make it as opposed to a Kalou who can barely control the ball let alone see a pass. He will and thank god for that!
  19. You're right but I didn't mean to imply he doesn't play on the sides. What I meant is that his skill-set is very similar to that of a number 10. I've seen him play many games, I just posted the video for those who haven't watched him regularly.
  20. Some game videos for those of you who want to see what he plays like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwJzYYdxQr8
  21. I think you're in for a masisve let down because Mata is nothing like Robben. In fact he's a lot closer to a Malouda than he is to a Robben in terms of style. He is a number 10 that can operate out on the left. He's smart, technical and has good passing ability. What he doesn't have is the sheer pace of Robben that takes him past players. Mata will be excellent at finding space in tight areas, recieving the ball and moving it forward. That's exactly what we need so I'm all for this transfer.
  22. He's only 20 and instead of sitting on out bench could be getting experience of games in better leagues. I would rather he grow than waste away like Kakuta did.
