When did he say this? Just seems like a random twitter quote someone would make up.

Not bothered, would love to get 3rd but even if we get 4th our UEFA co-efficient is so high we'll get the easiest play-off draw around.

I'll be at both games, give me a shout if any TC members wanna get a beer before the match.

Wow, getting dominated. Luiz, Lamps, Ramires all over the place. I say take off one of Mata or Oscar for Moses and just concede possession and just look for counters over the top. Just doesn't look like we'll be able to build up to decent scoring chances. I would say that's more due to the lack of technical ability in our defence and midfield and our striker. Really only the 3 amigos, Luiz and Azpi are comfortable on the ball, everyone else shits their pants whenever someone is 5 feet from them and pass it back or launch it forward. You can't have a decent build-up when every second pass ends up at the feet of someone who needs 10 yards of free space and 3 touches to make a decision.

Very nervous, I think Benfica are a very good team and this is the kind of game that we need to take our chances and Ladyboy doesn't instill me with any confidence. Oscar will have to be big tonight because Mata alone can't do this alone. Hope the referee is strong because imo Benfica are one of the biggest cheaters (divers) in European football.

Beginning of the season was 9/10 Slump in the middle was 7/10 Ending of season back to 9/10 Sexiness throughout the season was 69/69 Plug x/10 for kicking the ballboy to arrive to 8/10 cause I know some assholes will calculate and bitch that 8/10 isn't the correct average. Overall average 8/10

Just read, IF Arsenal win 2-1 at Newcastle and Chelsea draw 0-0 with Everton, the two clubs will be level on points, goal difference, goals scored and goals conceded and since there is no H2H in the PL, it's been confirmed that there would be a playoff for 3rd spot!

I think his kicking is his biggest weakness. He's bad with his feet, must improve there especially cause we're going to be more and more likely to increase building from the back from here on forward.

He won't win Ballon d'or or Player of the year awards until he adds more goals to his game. Just like how Bale is doing now. I mean, yeah he's scoring goals right now but his finishing is probably the worst out of our 3 amigos. That said, his potential is easily the highest of the 3. Potential wise: Hazard > Oscar > Mata which is scary cause Mata is the best of the 3 right now and he could end up being the worst, scary scary potential we got here.

Here's something different than what everyone wants to hear: KDB will NOT be sold. I don't see any reason why we would other than if someone comes with a 35M transfer fee which isn't going to happen. We don't have a manager yet and if it's Mou, KDB is exactly the kind of player Mou would like to work with. I guarantee you if Mou is our manager than KDB comes back next season. KDB is probably one of the best counter-attacking players in the world. KDB is impatient and he probably feels that he's not needed at Chelsea but once Jose gives him a call says I want you, KDB will come running back. Worst case is that he will go on loan if Mou feel's he's not needed or ready yet. But I don't see why we'd sell him. If we want Dortmund players then we can just pay for them, we don't need to send anyone the other way to negotiate a smaller transfer fee, we can afford anyone on that team.

Yeah, I was enjoying that article but that statement just completely ruined it for me, lost all credibility right there.

Yeah, I didn't say this game, I said lately. He was our top scorer in Next Gen and he's still top scorer for our youth and reserve teams I think, just been completely off the last month of so.

Don't want people watching Feruz for the first time this youth cup to get the wrong impression. Dude is a lethal finisher but no idea what's happened to him lately. It's very weird because his movement is still good but just the finish is lacking quality. Doesn't even seem like confidence issues because he's still doing the same things and taking the same shots, just bizarre.

What I don't understand is that why all you morons find every half chance and cry about KDB leaving yet choose to ignore every reliable news source when every reliable source has said that Chelsea have no intention of selling KDB. Seems some just want to cry for crying's sake. Talking shit about the board seems to be the flavor of the month or rather the year. Every post reeks of the same shit - Maybe people will give me a like if I keep repeating the same bullshit again and again. Every reliable source I've come across has said that he might go on loan or return but will NOT be sold.

Yeah, was just about to post this. Seems odd to play like this at youth level.

Is this on Adi? Maybe not tell your full-backs to bomb forward when it's clear all Norwich want to do is play long balls to the flanks.

Fuck Norwich.

HOLY SHIT! BAKER! Goal line block of the season!!!

Feruz with another great chance, he's been missing chances he used to finish in his sleep.

Btw Clive Walker irritates me to hell, all he does is criticize the team. I mean they are still young, give em a break. Even if you want to be critical please be within reason. Every play he finds something wrong.

BOOOGAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, if he wants to come here, he'll have to take a pay cut. No way does he deserve to be our highest paid player. I would love him here but 250k/week is fkin stupid money.

I don't buy it. No way he can come back that fast from a hamstring injury. Incredibly risky and downright stupid to play him imo, 99% chance he makes it worse if he plays on it.

Actually, he was trying to hit the post and then the defender and then the post and then the defender again and then go in, but he said he couldn't be bothered so he just scored the easy way.

You can't blame the board for Sturridge's departure. If anything the board probably deserve some praise. It's the managers that never rated him and gave him a chance. The board actually did an exceptional job getting 12M for a guy with only 6 months left on his contract because there was no way he was going to sign an extension if we hadn't sold him and he would have left for free!
