The rumors of our supposed "need" to sign homegrown players are greatly exaggerated.   We are currently using only 14 of our 17 HG slots.  One of these is being wasted on our 3rd string Goalkeeper, Eduardo.   I'm nearly certain there is better value and quality to be had with non-homegrown players in this market, which makes our obsession with Chamberlain and Drinkwater all the more puzzling/frustrating.

He's right, Pizy. As abhorrent as it is that the dippers are most likely going to win the league, we should focus on the only competition where we have a chance of victory.

fuck the SCUM ,, lets win the CL

This is why we watch football. Everybody gave everything. Brilliant. Is someone cutting onions?

Happy 1000th Arsene! Here's a 6-0 tonking!

Very apt comparison.

Must win game.
Fucking hate those slags, they are so far up their own arses.
They are like southern scousers.

Fabian Delph adds his name to an illustrious list of players that have scored against us that includes, but is not limited to, such top talents as Ireland, Assaidi, Altidore, Sigurrdson, Naismith, and Anichebe. You can't make this shit up.

Good heavens, what a joy it is to finally have a top class Central Midfielder again. It's been too long.

Hope he doesn't play. One of those annoying players that is kind of a shit footballer but makes up for it by being super athletic and having bags of pace. A player that can cause us problems and keep up with Hazard.

I highly suggest you watch our game against bayern or barca under RDM to understand what park the bus means.

I DONT ....I like the Turkish people ,, I dont like the idiots who come on here spouting shit ,, and even more despise the animals who go to their games threatening violence .
FOOTBALL is a sport ,, NOT a war ,, if you want a war ,, we are quite good at winning them as well

DISGUSTING POST ,,only a Hammer or Scouser would call Lampard that ...... I would get banned for using the term that would accurately describe you

It really is amazing how you one can blame every single thing on one person.

Too bad. I was hoping Roman would hire a gang of toughs to find Arnesen and beat the money out of him for including Matic in the Luiz deal.

when you say Fridge do you mean that monster that used to play for the Chicago Bears ???? HE WAS ICONIC

I have never doubted he was a great player, but I still think we should have used that 32mi elsewhere...

I tend to agree with this. Mata simply doesn't have the attributes that Mourinho wants from a winger. If you want Mata on your team, you need to largely build an attack around him. This is true of a almost any top offensive player. To me, this whole thing seems disingenuous and a way to isolate Mata without seeming like the bad guy. Mourinho is not going to make him a better player. We've seen the best of Mata which is pretty fantastic and know what he can and can't do. Take any player and say "you have to play at a position and role you're clearly not suited for and compete with 4 other players for it" and what do you expect to happen? If Mourinho didn't like the way Chelsea played with Mata on the team, then why the hell is he still here? Mata as the centrepiece of your offense is incredibly valuable. Mata as a squad player, playing a system and position that doesn't fit him is not worth a fraction of what Chelsea could get for him. I would have been fine if Chelsea had sold him, that would have made sense to me, but this treatment is much worse.

Fixed.

Of course not. But what kind of forum would we be if we did not jump to conclusions?!
