From Adidas retail store in Hong Kong. Where are you from mate? You can always try ebay, and don't worry you just can't buy a fake Techfit, because there's no fake Techfit in the market.

I agree Hilario WAS a decent backup to play few odd games, but I doubt he IS now.

Those who said he is overpriced should really start watching him, watch before judge. I have to reiterate, 25M euros for a 20 year old Brazil NT No.10, what a bloody bargain! Hope he stays injury free in the Olympics. Can't wait to watch him links up with Mata, Hazard and Torres.

It doesn't look too bad, especially in the revealing video when players are wearing it. Have to say Adidas has done a quite good job on this year's 3 kits in general.

Yeh, I say release Turnbull, promote Jamal as third, and sign a decent experienced one as second.

Romeu is on

BTW, where is Azpillicueta? On the bench?

Agree! Deep down I hope Spain gets knocked out early so Mata can come back to Chelsea soon. But I know Mata would love to win it for his country so I'm going to support him, same goes to Oscar.

Spain is in deep shit now. One nil down, one man down.

And yes, the decision of keeping Hilario and Turbull really puzzles me. We're the champion of Europe it's simply stupid to keep players this bad.

Exactly! The recall option should only be triggered if Cech is out for an very long period of time, I'm talking about something like a whole season. If Cech is only out for few weeks, you don't recall Courtois because it's simply not a wise decision. And the scary thing is, without a decent gk even for just few weeks, it could easily cost our season, worst case scenario we are talking about 10+ points gained or lost here. Any shit team with a decent forward could hurt us if Hilario or Turnbull stands between the posts.

Can we send him back after Cech has recovered for example?

Thanks man. We've got the numbers, but lack of qualities.

I keep hearing people says how badly we need a Right Winger and a Right Back, yes we need them, give us Hulk/Moses and Azpi/Debuchy will make us more balanced. However, I'm very much surprised no one gives a damn about us desperately need a bloody DECENT backup Goal Keeper. Let's be honest, if something wrong with Cech, we are most likely screwed! No matter how great we are up front, defence is the foundation of being success, and a good GK not only saves shots but also provides tremendous confidence to the defenders. Now, Cech aside, we have Hilario who is on his retiring process; Turnbull who has slower reaction than my granny; Blackman who is still very young and inexperienced; and the last but not least Courtois who is on loan who shouldn't be brought back to jeopardise his developments. So here we go, are you guys confident to have Hilario, Turnbull and Blackman to be our backup GK if Cech is unavailable?! I know I am certainly NOT! Now please discuss, do we need one? Who are the available candidates? P.s. Mods, I dunno which sub-forum to create this thread, please help me to move it to the right place, cheers.

Hopefully RDM has the balls to select who plays based on performance not price tag. So far I'm impressed by Hazard's ability but dislike his "can't be arsed" attitude in friendlies.

Probably but unlikely. Hazard will be a dead-on starter.

I really don't like what I have seen about Luiz. So far he's been nothing but cocky and clumsy. RDM needs to sort out his attitude quick. For me right now Cahill+Terry should be the starting combo.

Cech Ivanovic - Cahill - Terry - A.Cole Essien - Lampard Ramires - Hazard - Marin Torres Please field this next match and let them play & gel for at least 60 mins!

Who else thinks Luiz was bloody shite at the pre-season so far? Did some stupid tackles and lost his position cheaply. Tried too hard to be fancy and stole all the good positioned free-kicks!

What the FUCK is wrong with this fucking ref?! It's a bloody friendly match ffs!

Luiz, Hazard, Piazon on please!

Boring first half, the ref made it worse!

Essien looks fit and much better than last season! Keep it up BISON!

Marin for me is just simply not good enough.
