Villas-Boas appointed Manager. I have a feeling he will do a good job, no doubt he's a good manager.

Hey, what do you think about Maicon? i've heard he's been rather poor this season, not sure if true.

Hmm, not impressed by this at all.

He may be able to score a few goals but i doubt he will ever regain the form he once had. Even yesterday you can see he lost the pace he once had, that pace was so crucial in his game.

Footballers these days...

I cant see us going for both Hulk and Moutinho.

If AVB brings in the players he wants then i think he will succeed, no doubt.

Haha lets not compare teams, it's evident Spain, Italy and England are must better.

He could of said if last year and it got recycled.

SLIGHTLY worse than Anelka, sturridge, Joe cole and Duff... Also Kalou isn't fit to wipe Crespo's boots.

I comend your effort, but there is no way you can convince me Kalou was a good signing.

Depressing watching that video... it's not just his 'confidence' he's lost, it's his pace.

I thought he was one of England's best defender in that season, it certainly got him some caps for England.

Inconsistent? granted at the beginning of last season he was not on form but the season before he was England's best defender, teams were offering 18+ million for him. And when he joined Chelsea in January he's been one of our best defenders. I'm not going to discuss anymore about Morrison, i think he's not good enough and so does many here, i'm afraid you're not going to convince me.

No, James Morrison is clearly not good enough for us, maybe if he was younger but he is 26 . He couldn't even break into the England u21 squad thus joining Scotland. Also why are people talking about players like Cahiil, Valencia, Mikel etc, it was clear they all had potential. Cahill was one of the best defenders in England the year before we bought him. Valencia was Wigans best player, it may of been a risk but it was obvious he had the ability. Mikel was brilliant in the Fifa world youth Championships, it was a gamble but he was young and time was on his side. Lastly any player who was in Brunt's shadow is clearly not good enough.

who cares about Basketball managers...pshhh ; )

Or made in a sweatshop in china...

Even if Mata goes out on the wing he wont be in a fixed position, he will be free to roam and occasionally him and Hazard will switch. Use Man city as an example, Silva and Nasri.

He's great, but i do think Modric's better technically and will most likely cost less or at least the same.

So Ramires....

Although The Madrid may be annoying, how does that justify a ban? Also why're certain 'old' member here now saying they're leaving? it's getting rather annoying, just leave if you want no need to announce it.

What if we send him on loan again and it doesn't work out? another loan? If it was up to me, i will give him a try next season. Two years ago he played a couple of matches in the CL and a few PL matches, the idea was to ease him in last year but AVB didn't play him and we sent him on loan... now this year people want him on loan again? I honestly don't think our board wanted him to go on loan, he's not like Betrand, Josh is/was our biggest prospect for years and the fact that he played in the CL when he was 18 proves that.

Big if.

Ramires is good but not world class, not yet. As i said before he has a good engine and he is fast, plays with a lot of heart. BUT he somewhat lacks technical ability, his passing, first touch etc needs improving and than maybe you can call him world class.

Ramires is good, but he is limited in what he can do. He has a good engine and fast, but technically he isn't all there yet.
