Here's a crazy thought. Instead of replacing our best CB, why don't we replace our worst one? Hmm..if we keep doing that maybe then our defence will improve. I can't remember the last time Luiz made a mistake resulting in a goal.

He does drive forward from the midfield and has very good movement. Gets himself into very nice positions. Passing is pretty good but has to improve if he wants to play in the midfield.

Amazing pass!! God I love him.

Italy U21 team has to be one of the most disgraceful team's I've seen. The kind of shit they pulled at end of that match was embarrassing.

Even if they want him (which I'm sure they don't) we should not loan him out. Even if they are stupid enough to loan him, there is no way the fans will accept him. He'll get booed every game and minute he's playing.

Mata got like 10-12 assists from corners alone, I'd say he's pretty darn good at em too.

Really don't understand why people don't rate Rooney. Dude is class (as a Centre forward).

Would have loved to have him in our ranks, but it's probably smart move by him. I think we're so loaded in the attacking band that only one who'll ever get a chance over the next decade would have to be a mid-twenties established world class player. Oscar - 21 Hazard - 22 Mata - 25 KDB -21

Not happening. Some players just aren't good enough. Marin's best game he's ever played in his life and that's probably comparable to an average Moses game. I could understand if a player showed potential or the attributes to prove the doubters wrong but Marin possess nothing of the sort. We should sell him + money to Southampton for Luke Shaw.

Would Torres accept that move? No way Napoli can afford his wages and would Torres really take a pay-cut? The best we could hope for is that Torres gets as high terms he can possible get at Napoli and then we're stuck still paying him wages for the difference. That's really the only way I see this happening. Another thing you have to realize is that transfer fees are amortized and Torres still has 3 years on his contract which means 30M of his transfer fee still hasn't hit our books so if he's sold this summer that's really 40M for Cavani + 30M for Torres on our books. Although then Cavani's can be amortized but that's still a 30M lump-sum hit on the transfer budget by selling Torres alone.

Source? I thought it was just some false twitter quote.

I don't think we have to worry about loosing Courtois permanently to Athletico. Just think of it this way. Let's say he wasn't our player but was actually owned by Athletico for these past 2 years and next summer we came calling for him to be our new number 1. You think he would turn us down? He'd look at it as a step-up. Now if we promise him the number 1 shirt next year and then delay it and teams like Real and Barca come knocking then I can see that as a problem, but otherwise he'll be fine either with us or Athletico again since they are in Tier 2 in the club football. Real - Don't need a goalie for a while, Casillas still has plenty years. Barca - They need a goalie, but they'll address it this year so they should be out of the hunt for a while too. United - De Gea, young. Bayern - Neur, young. Who else would come knocking that really would be a considerable step up from Athletico? I don't see anyone. I dare say we can even wait 2 years and he'll still be fine with it.

I really don't think Marin is good enough. Piazon impressed me more in his very little time at Malaga than Marin did here. I'd reckon Marin gets loaned out or gets sold in a player exchange or something. I don't see a future for him here. Sure, he can play a carling cup game here and there but you're down 1 goal and Marin's on the bench, you ain't getting nothing worthwhile from him. His biggest asset is his dribbling but I don't think he has the confidence to hack it in the premier league. And whatever confidence he did have is probably shot to pieces now after the shocking first season. RW - Hazard, KDB, Moses, Oscar, Ramires CAM - Mata, Oscar, Hazard, KDB LW - Hazard, Mata, KDB, Oscar, Moses 4-2-3-1: 1. KDB - Mata - Hazard 2. Ramires - Oscar - Moses 4-3-3 1. Mata - ST - Hazard 2. KDB - ST - Moses Mou wants competition, Marin is no competition but Schurrle can be, so at a good price he'll be a good option for depth but that's assuming Oscar will be pushed back into midfield if we go with a 4-3-3, cause if not then we're probably fine depth-wise.

Think this just shows that Roman and the board have given control to Jose. Seemed like we were ready to send KDB on loan and bring in Schurrle but Mou walked in and told em to STFU and bring back the blonde sex-bomb (not to be confused with the blonde sex-bitch aka Torres).

I'm happy with Oscar in the midfield but not as a DM, way too far back imo and position requires positional discipline. I think we have to swtich to a 4-3-3. First choice: Mikel Ramires - Oscar Mata - Lukaku - Hazard Second choice: Romeu Essien - Lamps KDB - Ba - Moses

million people talked shit about the board before anything credible was reported about de bruyne, so i figured i bring it up for no reason again

omg the board is so fucking stupid

I'm going to miss it too Will be travelling for work. Someone please record it and have it for download please.

Schwarzer and Rob Green both available on free.

Cazorla & Fabregas

Spain vs Haiti - Charity Match, Spain with 2 goals already and both goals assisted by Mata

"Chelsea and Jose Mourinho have at a meeting where we clearly understand that Kevin returns to Chelsea for the new season," Reschke said: "Chelsea will definitely no longer lend the player - at any club. The thing is through - unfortunately. It was no longer possible for us to be coupled to a transfer with Andre Schurrle. " -Bayer's manager Michael Reschke

I have always despised him because of what he did to Ballack. Couldn't stand him here. Great player though and really would be a steal for the quoted price. But go somewhere else.

lukaku isn't good enough cause he shows no workrate and has poor attitude courtois isnt good enough because he conceded kdb isnt good enough because he was subbed off, obv cause he was shit hazard isnt good enough, he didnt even start, what a bum!

Courtois shoulda done better with that Kolarov free-kick. Btw, how underrated is that dude on free-kicks, never seems to miss.
