Slam Dunk

Problem is, with Sturridge playing centrally, we'd have to play Malouda/Kalou on the wing and we'd never hear the end of it.

Cech; Ivan, D Luiz, JT ©, Cole; Ram, Romeu, Meir; Sturr, Drog, Mata.

Romeu to start! A bit of tenacity in the holding role. Good!

Architecturally speaking, it's a fantastic opportunity. Would love to see what the architects could come up with.

I actually thought Drogba played well. Put himself about the pitch well. His hold up/link up play was also very good, which was lucky because we seemed very insistent on playing the long ball over the top from the defence (probably because the midfield couldn't get anywhere near the ball).

The players need to work harder. Not enough pressure on the ball (particularly from the midfield trio).

Some of you lot need to calm down, we've not been that bad. Fact is they've pressed us very well.

Christ. Cech off? I mean seriously, defending that should be elementary.

Time to show us what you can do, Danny!

With Sturridge, Mata and Lampard playing from the start, we would've won. Another thing, i'll be very disappointed if we don't step up our efforts to sign De Bruyne. He could be brilliant. Very intelligent player.

Well played Genk. Spirited team. Absolute joke how cheaply we gave away possession at times.

Jesus christ, commentator's moved on from 'Romoo' to 'Batron'.

Kalou/Malouda would be the obvious choice for me. EDIT: Can someone phone the BBC and tell this commentator that 'Romeu' isn't fucking pronounced 'Ro-moo'.

The match hasn't even started yet, where's your belief?

Probably NSFW. Pretty harrowing: http://gawker.com/5851757/gaddafis-last-moments-caught-on-video?popular=true

Probably one of the reasons players ought to be banned from using Twitter. Too many people using it as a gateway for abuse, case in point being the guy who wished Jack Wilshere's baby die of cot death, a disgusting act within itself, and yet he (the Spurs fan) tried to brush it off as 'banter'.

You are wrong. Without Apple, you wouldn't have a graphic user interface on your computer now. You wouldn't be using a mouse. Without iTunes, you wouldn't be able to download music digitally on a mass scale. Oh, and please try and tell me that without the iPhone and the iPad to lead the way, that the market for smartphones/tablet computers would be of the same standard compared to if they were never made? Fair enough, you prefer PC/standard MP3 players and Android phones, whatever your reason for that is, it doesn't matter. Saying that Apple are not innovators, however, is ridiculous.

RIP to one of the true visionaries of the technological age. His memory will live on through the millions of the people inspired through his work.

Well, the club have mentioned naming rights numerous times as an extra source of income. You can hang on to your hope all you want, but its highly likely that it'll be something soulless like the 'Samsung Arena'. Football is a business.

If they boycott the club by refusing to go to the new stadium, they're not die-hard fans. IMO.

It won't be called anything involving the words 'Stamford' or 'Bridge'. Face it, naming rights will go to the highest bidder. Sad, but true. Best thing we can hope for is the club gets a decent return on it.

Terrible refereeing yes, but come on, we didn't score a second and therefore let Valencia back into the game.

Why raise your arm in the first place. Ridiculous.

As long as you can put up with Chiles & Southgate.
