I was one of his backers up until about November but with every passing game it's becoming increasingly clear that Torres is done. To go on one scoring drought then beat it the following season beggars belief. My vote goes to Falcao, this guy is a goal machine.

Can you make an anyone but Torres option?

I don't think so, and when your looking to sign players they don't say whether they have leadership qualities unless you evaluate the buy. A player might pick up leadership qualities in time but i doubt it you know the saying you either have it or you dont.

Kalou-----Walcott----Malouda Tasty

The players 'revolting' against him should be sacked immediately but we all know that won't happen.

Any idea when were getting the change report?

How? both players are struggling for goals just as much as eachother.

2 more, wow.

The only good things to come out of this. 1. Torres helped get us Mata. 2. Liverpool wasted the bulk of the £50m on someone even worse.

5 and a half and we will seriously struggle to flog him unless he takes a massive wage cut of he goes on loan with us paying the bulk of his wages.

Van Der Wiel? no thanks, if we somehow ship off Bosingwa last thing we need is a younger version through the door.

Those players were still around in 07/08 when they flopped horrifically.

This myth that Guardiola is just a lucky passenger on the Barca steamtrain is annoying. Under Rijkard Barca had just finished 3rd, TEN points behind Villareal and nearly 20 behind Madrid, they had over-egotistical and/or past it players (sound familar?) like Thuram, Zambrotta, Deco, Ronaldinho and Eto'o, he put all 5 up for transfer, 4 left Eto'o only saved himself by a change of attitude but even he was gone the summer after. Also when Pep took over, Iniesta, Xavi and Messi were obvious talent's but nowhere near the world beating level they are today and what makes Pep extra special is he never stands still. 1st season he wins the treble but still goes straight out in the market for Ibra and Maxwell aswell as promoting Pedro. 2nd season, another league title, does he settle for that? no straight in the market and gets Villa and Mascerano in. 3rd season, 3rd league title in a row do what does he do? sign Sanchez, Cesc and promote Thiago. Pep has won Barca more titles than the 10 years previous to his takeover where they won 2 Ronaldinho inspired titles. Pep is just as important to Barca as Messi, if not more.

"oi, Ivan, is that new lad still eyeing me up??"

I would rather Allardyce than Rafa and im not even joking.

Who will go on the right?

Where was the creativity last season? he still scored 11 goals. So basically it's like playing Torres but with the hope he might actually get a goal.

If we had a forward other than him that can score i wouldn't even consider it.

GK - Petr Cech - No brainer. RB - Branislav Ivanovic - Under par tonight but give the guy a break, his first under par match at right back in some time, he is awesome at RB. CB's - Gary Cahill and David Luiz - Terry for Cahill when he returns. LB - Ryan Bertrand - Cole isn't performing, title is over, what will hurt in giving Ryan a run of games? DM - Oriol Romeu - Has to play every match from now on in after Raul Meireles's pathetic display's in that position. CM - Ramires - Who else? CM - Really don't know, despite his pathetic display's lately Meireles did play well in December when Romeu-Rami-Raul was the midfield 3. Essien would make this midfield far too defensive and Lampard doesn't fit into AVB's system, im stuck with this one. RM - Danny Sturridge. LM - Juan Mata ST - Saloman Kalou - Dont wanna hear the rest. His goals may be tap in's but atleast he gets them unlike Drogba these days or the £50m 180k a week "forward". Drogba and Torres have been frustrating for 90, Sala frustrate's for 89. This team as often as possible and we might just save our season. One last thing, if a Cahill or Luiz injury forces Ivanovic back in the centre, Paulo at right back not Bossy please!!!!

Can i request to LDN Blue that when he sets a date for a new season he sets the start date in about a couple of weeks, form is completely out of sorts after a change report we all need at-least 3 or 4 friendly's to get back to normal, which is why pre season friendly's often come up with crazy scorelines.

Bottom line is, Kalou scores, Torres doesn't and Drogba isn't looking like doing so anytime soon.

Lucky tap ins from 2 yards are sounding a better proposition with every passing week.

If Kalou came on what would have been the odd's of a "lucky tap in" that made this 3-2?

Said it countless times for the last month but i keep saying it until im blue in the face KALOU IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fernando Torres playing under Big Sam just imagine that? "Torras, win dat second balll, stand on the keepers toe's"
