Sheva.

How exactly has Lukaku been better than the 3rd highest scorer in the PL this season? lmao.

Over the past 2 seasons, he'll probably rank top 5 in strikers in the league, so it really is amazing to be getting him for 7m. Now it's about him settling down here and hopefully he will banging in the goals soon.

Welcome Demba! Happy to hear he can play in the League cup, because i really don't want to see Torres fail against Ashley Williams for 180 minutes.

Usually happens when we don't win the previous game, but then after we win you will start seeing overly optimistic people again.

Everyone reporting different wages lol.

Voted for The only place to be. Very active member and i agree with his posts majority of the time.

I'm sure he was very bored at the game lol.

There will be no announcement today then? i just hope they can get it all sorted by tomorrow morning so he can play at Southampton.

Mata and Hazard will and should start. Take them off early if we're winning.

Not really. Torres is a player who is simply past it at this stage, he doesn't fight with managers or players in the training ground - or on the pitch when they don't let him take a set-piece. And he sure as hell does not lack discipline like Balotelli does.

Very overrated player, not to mention he has an even worse attitude than Sturridge, the sooner he gets out of this league and i have to read less about him, the better.

There will only be 1 ACN during that period - in 2015. And Senegal are not exactly a good side that can qualify every time. City get a little under 2m from us for Sturridge. His fee effectively covers the Ba signing with some change left, and Ba will only make 15k more than he did - if that figure you posted is right.

Hopefully there's an announcement in the morning.

It's hard to have a plan when your striker can't hold on to the ball, or even win an aerial duel. What should we do, cross the ball more? well for sure Torres won't even be near 90% of them. Long balls? he won't win any. Try to play him in behind? he has terrible positioning.

I can't blame him for this because we have no other options, that is about to change soon though - hopefully.

Pardew said it's done.

For games we lose, there should be a Flop of the Match instead of MOTM. Torres would get most votes just about every time lol.

I'm not sure it has anything to do with character, he's just not good enough anymore, there's nothing he can do to change that.

The funny thing is we didn't even make 'many' changes. Oscar couple weeks ago was a regular starter and Moses has started almost every game under Benitez. The one big change was Marin, he was bad, but it just shows how reliant we are on Mata.

Luiz and Lampard were terrible. Torres lol, where the fuck is Ba?!

Hazard, Mata, Ramires on, please.

Hahaha this is so sad.

Can we bring on Mata and Hazard now? lol.

I didn't see this, you're right then.
