Sheva.

Howard is so lucky, he could have been sent off for 3 different things

Le sigh.

This happens a lot when we're close to sealing a deal:, some random team comes in with late interest.

He barely did anything today but exchange words. In la liga he was very bad, and used to punch/spit on people. Hasn't done it here so far.

Everything about this was so good. The pace by Mikel. The run by Costa. The back-heel. The patient composed finish...And even the celebration

He's the type of guy i used to hate because he's so good and plays for a rival team. Man oh man, it feels good to have a top striker.

2 way street, Azpi can't attack, Hazard can't defend. Very unbalanced wing.

Lol

Omg

Stoke's attack looks very solid.

He was shit, but he was also played as CM. I do think when all is said and done though, he will be the one dropped from the XI.

I like this. Quick, good on the ball, good finisher with both feet, and for a reasonable price. He can also be used on the wings if need be. Now let's see if he can pass a medical.

Liverpool gave us Torres, and they also helped get rid of Torres by signing Balo.

No way in hell his contract will be renewed.

His contract with Chelsea ends after 2 years. He will be a free agent immediately after his loan with Milan. Chelsea are done with him essentially.

He won't be coming back is the whole point here.

James won't play tough games, i'm pretty sure of that. Khedira or Illara will come in.

Kaka, Essien and now Torres - AC Milan are on a roll.

On a more balanced team like say PSG, this is a type of signing that could really take them to the next level. But Man utd have a lot of holes in their team - Di Maria won't cover their RB and CB problems, or the fact they somehow don't have a real DM. It is a good start though tbf to them, and if they can at least get decent options in midfield and defence, they can fight for top 4.

It was annoying when he went to retrieve the ball from the defence, and lost it with a stupid pass under no pressure. Otherwise he was quiet in the 1st half, but did some good things in the 2nd and deserved to score.

Leicester didn't play as we expected them to, I'm sure that's one of the reasons we took a while to settle. We also tried to play the same narrow football that worked against Burnley, but there was no space and time to execute. Everything was much better when Azpi and Ivan started going forward much more in the 2nd half.

No one is playing wide at all, even Ivanovic is not present in attack.

Everyone is bad, but Oscar or Schurrle are the only players who can be changed.

50m player can't make bench, 175k free wages, amazing.

Shame he's returning to the PL, every single thing he does will be a big deal in the media. I'm guessing they will rotate between their hybrid 4-4-2 and 4-3-3.
