For the second time, this about Lukaku not Torres. There is no need to compare the two at every oppurtunity. It seems discussions always evolve to accomodate Torres. Everything is always Torres this Torres that; I'm sick of it. A person will praise Sturridge by criticising Torres, they can't just praise Sturridge for playing well they find it necessary to criticise Torres. For example: 'Sturridge played well today and scored a goal. Why can't Torres do this?'. It seems that Torres is mutually inclusive to everything. Sure it's always relevent to compare and criticise Torres when concerning other players but is it alwasys necessary? NO, NO, NO, it is not necessary. Anyway since Lukaku is playing at a different club right now wouldn't it make more sense to compare him to Shane Long or Peter Odemwingie? He is compteting against these two at West Brom in West Brom's footballing system. Wouldn't it make more sense to compare him to his actual competition? Torres and Lukaku are playing with different people in a different system so it's kind of hard to fairly compare the two, isn't it? Sure we can easily compare their abilities and attributes (speed, first touch, strength) but to compare the two on match performances is unfair for both players.

I wasn't even talking about Torres was I? This is about Lukaku not Torres, everything that needs to be said about Torres has been said. I'm not going to praise Lukaku for almost scoring.

My problem is that he three fantastic chances and failed to convert all of them. Shane Long's goal with clinical.

I like to go for a couple of (dozen) beer with Gazza. Apparently he was quite drunk for a few days after the Champions League win.

It's always been a dream of mine to particpate in a riot. A strange dream but I'm a strange person.

Nerve wracking. They dominated about 25mins of the second half. When they went 2-1 up I had to turn the tele off.

I agree. Yet the EPL seems to think differently.

Go ding dong yourself.

Go ding dong yourself.

Good point but there never should have been a seven year dry spell there. It will always be Three Point Lane to me.

Because I hate them more than any other club and every time they score against Chelsea is like a knife in the stomach. I'm not happy unless they are utterly embarassed; today was pretty good even if they dominated periods of the match however I demand a bigger goal difference when they come to they Bridge.

I'll check it out. Most websites say no...Oh well.

I turned my TV off for ten minutes when the scored their second. Digusting that they scored twice.

This game made me feel sick. I hate Spurs more than anything.

DAN

I'm disgusted that they managed two goals against us.

I LOVE YOU JUAN HAVE MY BABIES

When did Marco Van Basten come out of retirement?

I was anticpating that joke. It was as obvious as a very obvious object.

Hugo Lloris to put in a transfer request. He is too talented for a pissant club like Twattenham; a keeper of his calibre should be at Barcelona (Valdes is worse than terrible) or at one of the Italian Giants. Bench the Captain of France. Right.

His accent is as thick as a very thick object. He'd be lucky if the referee understood him. They'd probably yellow card him everytime he argued just to be safe.

César Azpilicueta could become a leader; mayhap he already is? How I love saying 'César Azpilicueta'.

I believe that Juan Mata is very much captains material. He quite often gets all up in the referees face about decisions and has gotten fired up about things in the past. Remeber his reactions during the Olympics? I do have a preference for an English captain though.

Smart arse.
