Lol, very good indeed

Yup i do. I play Call of Duty WAW and SOCOM confrontation.....

Would like to see Drogba and Anelka linking up well again in this game, getting them gelling quickly could be a the vital detail in us winning the league this year.

This is by no means an easy draw for us. Porto and Athletico will be tough prospects, especially away from home. Would have liked an easier group but at least we avoided Inter and Real Madrid.....

Glad he never went to United. Would have liked us to keep Robben, even though he picks up injuries frequently, when you do get a game out of him he is a very effective player....

This is an awful idea, it will keep the big clubs on top and will effectively stop any team ever breaking into the top 4 barring a miracle. The only true way to level the playing field is to impliment transfer and salary caps....

Starting to pick up even more celebrity fans. The trips to the states seem to have aided in that cause..

Lol, loving the jacket JT......

It will certainly be interesting to see how Ancelotti approaches this game. Burnley have certainly given teams a tough time already this season so we will need to be very clever in how we go into this game.

There is not a single supporter who didn't gladly welcome Sheva with open arms. It is a real shame how things turned out for him, i don't think his first season here was that bad! Sheva was judged on his goals, which didn't look good.

I doubt that means that Sheva is on his way out this summer (although of course he could still). Our Champions League squad is going to have to be short again due to our lack of "homegrown" players. And with Drogba, Anelka, Kalou and Sturridge it was somewhat innevitable that Sheva was going to miss out on the Champions League squad......

The trouble is that strikers are judged on their goals. And when playing in a 4-3-3, particulary in those first 2 seasons Drogba has to play more for the team which limits his scoring chances. It is no coincidence that his best scoring season was when we played with 2 up top for the main part....

Should be an interesting draw. There are some potentially very tricky draws there indeed. Hopefully we won't pull out Madrid.....

lol. Your right, bloody swarming with the buggers round here!!! Had to laugh at the pitch invasions though, no attempt to do anything other than run on the pitch waving their arms about going "look at me"!! Don't think a single made an attempt to get to the Milwall fans

So bloody stupid..... The funny thing about it is that the main reason that there was trouble and violence is because it was expected of them in this game....

Without doubt they will not underestimate Burnley, Ancelotti has already mentioned Burnley a couple of times in press conferences and i am sure he will have studied very closely their games so far this season. It will be a tough game for sure...

Excellant, just what we need, another centre back.......

Yeah i think they did, absolute madness when these things happen in friendly matches....

Yup, a pretty much perfect start to the season so far. We havn't done much wrong and have looked like we can do very well indeed this season. Obviously it is early days but there is just a good vibe i am getting from the team and Ancelotti at the moment and i hope it stays that way.

Kalou is an excellant squad player. Can really pop up with a vital goal or assist. His stats have always read pretty impressively, but he is one of those players that people tend not to get on with for some reason. I hope he signs another deal and has a very good season this time around.

lol, very good..... And £24m for him is just outrageous....

Absolutely, having Joe Cole and Zhirkov in a diamond with Lampard and Essien would be something i would very much like to see.....

Absolutely, and Ancelotti is not mug. But when you have Mikel, Essien, Ballack, Lampard, Malouda, Zhirkov, J.Cole, Deco fighting out for 4 midfield spots then you can afford to rotate and keep players fresh, replacing one for another does not weaken the team in the slightest, also you can see that he wants to use certain players for certain types of games and situations.

After their last couple of results we will not be underestimating Burnley..... Hopefully Burnley will be on a high and may try and take the game to us, we will then be able to open them up far more easily. Burnley will make it hard for us but we most certainly can brush them aside if we approach it in the right way.

Perfect performance. Complete control of the game without letting Fulham in and getting the couple of goals needed to keep the game out of reach for Fulham.. Do not underestimate how difficult Fulham can be to play against at home. And much like the Sunderland game, we didn't give them a chance. I have a very very good feeling about this season and in Ancelotti, not just the results but the way we are playing and controling things is great.
