  1. Great idea mate! Maybe someone from 'article guys' could do this, if the want of course.
  2. Yea. David Luiz has more goals against Chelsea than Messi.
  3. Man, this guy is winger not left back.
  4. I see why there are doubts about signing this guy, I have them myself too. You see, who did we have most problems with this season? Teams that sit back with 10 men and only attack (if, they do at all) on counter-attacks or spam long balls and try to win corners to score from them. West Ham, Palace and other fuckers... And we did exactly the same in first leg in CL and Costa couldn't do fuck all. I know West Ham ain't Chelsea, but I would expect for striker with such pricetag to score even against teams that park the bus. And please, don't bring that shit argument: 'Messi didn't score against us too'. That's the most stupid shit I've ever heard. Messi is one of the two best footballers in the world and he is proving it season after season. He may have a few bad months here and there, but most of the time he is the best footballer in the world. Nobody heard about Costa until two seasons ago, so we don't know whether this season he is good just because of the way Simeone set up team or because he is actually good.
  5. He probably doesn't even want to play for Chelsea. And I don't care about his feelings, if he wouldn't play, we would have much better chance to win.
  6. Worst performance in the whole season, when we had to play the best. Absolutely no spirit. We showed nothing. One of the most stupid decisions to allow Courtois play in the semis. Congrats to Atletico and good luck in the final.
  7. Azpiliciueta could be right back and Ivanovic central back, then its 5-2-3. He could be CM then it's 4-3-3, or he could be RM, then it's 4-2-3-1. We will see what it is in one hour.

  10. Mourinho explains why Bayern lost yesterday… I like attacking football, who doesn’t? But what I like is effective football. Rijkaard’s Barca of 2004-07, Pep’s Barca of 08-11 were effective and that’s why they should be praised. The problem is when the opponents change their tactics in response, you adapt or your strategy dies. Football is as much attack as it is defend. This is why I consider Ferguson the finest manager in the world in the past 12-15 years at least. He adapted. Wenger came, beat him, and he tweaked the team and won 3 Premier Leagues in a row with a CL to boot. Mourinho came and smashed the league, Ferguson finished outside the top 2 for 2 years in a row (one when we had Ranieri) and he went back to the drawing board. Sometime in the 05-06 season you saw Man United suddenly charge behind us mid-season, but couldn’t prevent us from winning. They did manage to win the league the season after. City came with their wealth and players and won… Ferguson again adapted and won in his final season with what was not a very attractive footballing display. Ferguson had delightful attacking teams that won leagues, and defensive performances when he needed. Their CL semifinal against Barcelona in 07-08 was a quite defensive performance… but it was necessary. Adapt the teams based on the players you have, the opponents you face and make the teams effective. That’s the quality of good managers. What makes the manager great is if he can do all that and rebuild the squad over the years at the same club, which puts Ferguson over Mourinho and almost all other managers for me. This asinine Holy-Grail quest football philosophy that has a ‘perfect style’ of football that all must seek is as brittle as it’s inflexible and it is not worthy. I have questioned Mourinho this season because at times I thought his strategy wasn’t effective against weaker teams. But I would love it, just love it, if he first smashes Atletico and then Real in Lisbon and throws the finger at the press by winning.
  11. If that news with Cech is true, either Mourinho trolled every fucking person on this planet or Eva & co. did amazing job.
  12. What a brillliant analysis by Carragher and Neville. Put everything I thought in the words.
  13. Can anyone imagine midfield trio of Bastian-Yaya-Vidal? The best midfield ever.
  14. I think it was funnier when he was like WTF?!?! "Sorry...?"
  15. Your survey is not fucking fun stop spamming with it.
  16. How fucking good is this guy? When Cech was injured against Atletico, I had a really bad feeling, but Schwarzer was fucking immense in that game. And now again. I'm not worried at all about our goalkeeper in CL. Cech or Courtois or Schwarzer next season?!
  17. No problem mate, the only thing that is predictable in GoT is that at one point everyone will die haha. I love you. <3
  18. Fuck you and your spoilers. -.- No seriously mate, not cool for us who didn't read the book.
