Sheva.

Because they trained in the kit - team photo was taken today.

Heskey to Chelsea.

http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/id/1144843/michael-essien-expected-to-leave-chelsea-for-turkey?cc=5901 Fenerbahce are reportedly interested in him.

They refused his resignation.

Just sums up how poor Bilbao have been. Anyway i'm done watching the game, it's just boring now

Has Courtois had to make a save so far? lol.

Yes, they're having it in 2 consecutive years because they want it to stop being in the same year as the World cup.

Yes, him and Arda are the 2 people RDM will focus on stopping. I think Bertrand might be deployed on the left again.

Don't really follow them, but on this evidence i can see why lol.

That is true lol, but today they look really clueless going forward and the 2 goals could have been easily prevented.

Bilbao are without 3 of their best players tbf - Llorente, Martinez and Muniain.

Lol Falcao again.

Falcao is a fucking beast.

The fuck? not just one but two? does he have parents? lol.

They're not a force, but they are still a big club and their games against other top clubs still attracts a lot of attention.

They didn't forget, just ignored

People should actually play football to play, not to sit on the bench and receive a hefty paycheck. I don't like Barton but i have new found respect for him because of what he said on twitter today: "I am not the type of player to sit on the sidelines and take the cash. It's not me. I could do that for the next 3 years but it's not me. I want to play football"

---------Cech---------- Ivan--Cahill--Luiz--Ash ---Mikel-----Lampard--- Moses---Mata---Hazard ---------Torres--------- I expect Ramires to start in place of Moses though. And i also hope Oscar gets significant minutes in this game.

LMAO, i remember when he tweeted this and some pessimistic people were saying he could mean Man utd, since they won CL in 2008

Why are you comparing a club and a national team? Spain didn't pay 16m and then keep the player - or players in this case - on the bench. There's no point at all in signing Moses especially, then getting Hulk - it's just wasting money and talents.

That was a foul outside the box at least, lol at the ref. Arsenal really can't do anything in Stoke's half despite all their possession and dominance of the game.

Because RDM prefers the midfield 2 of Mikel and Lampard. Essien will get his chance soon though as those 2 can't play every game.

Arsenal have been good really, need to do better in final third though.

Arsenal vs Stoke about to begin - Arsenal have their 3rd choice GK in goal.
