Spike

I'd rather a system that gets the best out of all players. I disagree with the statement Barcelona plays to get the best out if Messi. They play to get the best out of their very technical players. A lot of players just lazily look to Messi to win games and get the out of holes. Messi makes the system better not vice versa. A better example would be Ruud van Nistelrooy at United, almost everything was focused on Horseface scoring.

My only regret is that Sparky's team was not deliberatly dismantled and annihilated each minute for ninety minutes. Like a well played game of chess, each turn should have furthered their demise into losing their king.

Hey! Don't steal my thunder Dr. Thunder, I already mentioned not all shots are on target!

A lot of crosses, through balls and shots are ineffective so I suppose they should be stopped too. Since only kids enjoy 'these type of things' I suppose players should stop using elasticos, step overs, rainbow heel flicks etc.

Good lad. What an insult. Why if someone said that with negative implications regarding my integrity I'd probably kill myself. Joking aside, it doesn't really matter who started it in the end the only fact remains is that both parties are guilty and both exasperated the situation.

You started it.

Steve is and administrator; not a moderator. But I'm sure you knew that already and it was just a mere typo.

Please, tell when I mentioned our players being a 'bunch of scrubs', hell I didn't say anything about our players. YOU quoted me with that message about our players, KOF talked about resting players, not SPIKE. I was asking how Nordsjaelland are harmless and a weaker team than Norwich and I've yet to get a justifiable response .

Cassano has scored again.

Nonsense, the only reason Chelsea (or any other team in the world for that matter) deserves to win a game is if the score more goals on match day. Having a sense in entitlement for your club is arrogant. Next thing you know Chelsea supporters will be saying "We deserved to win because we play beautiful and they don't".

Prove that Nordsjaelland is harmless. I bet you know nothing of the club. Plus you also have implied that Norwich is a harder fixture than Nordsjaelland, what makes this so?

As I always say: "there is no such thing as a wrong opinion, just having the wrong reasons for an opinion".

1. Five new signings in the Summer Window and four major departures and you expect the entire team to have gelled after about ten games? 2. Manchester City have a larger wage bill than Chelsea. 3. The team still plays shit? Oh, I'm sorry if being undefeated and top of the table is not good enough. Besides, you seem to expect a total revolution in a few months. 4. Arsenal and Wenger have had 16 full years to establish a philosophy and RDM has had six months. That is why the play 'better' than Chelsea (yet they are seven points in behind Chelsea).

That happens every Chelsea v Arsenal derby. They really hate him.

No it shouldn't. We aren't Liverpool or Arsenal we don't need one player to carry the rest of the team.

I'm getting a big head from this.

That save was bloody unreal. Incredible reaction time.

I would have preferred Gazza to start...this bodes poorly for my predictions.

Rami's pace will be more than helpful in this match however it is pertinent that he restrains himself and attempts to achieve a consistent level of discipline.

The 4-2-3-1 pretty much become a 4-3-3 when Oscar, Hazard and Mata are playing. At nearly all times of them has dropped deep into midfield to collect the ball and begin attacks. The 4-2-3-1 is just a formality. The next person to complain about Lamps in the pivot should be kicked in the bollocks.

He obviously means injury time.

I'm very excited for this game. I love derbies.

Out in the cosmos somewhere a malevolent deity is destroying cute woodland critters in direct response to that post.

I swear this bloke would make a magnificent Muppet.
