  1. Ha, I knew she would have a very French name. I was ecpecting Claire or Charlotte. I think I met a French girl named Maia once. I think it was spelt Maïa though.
  2. We can always say it in retrospective.
  3. Record win – 13–0 v. Jeunesse Hautcharage, Cup Winners' Cup, 1st Round 2nd Leg, 29 September 1971 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Chelsea_F.C._records_and_statistics#Results
  4. I think he is bulkier and stronger than RvP. He is also a few inches taller than him.
  5. Maybe two years ago I'd agree with you. In 2010 he was the undisputed best player in the world, dragged the Netherlands to the WC final and was arguably (Milito) the best players in the most successful Internazionale team ever. Ever since then, he has missed a step due to injuries, lots of them. Still a bloody brilliant player, that I'd love to have here as I'm quite sentimental towards him (go back in this topic, you'll see a lot of my posts praising him and begging to sign him). He is not the player he was. My main gripe with him is that he seems to only love one team. Oranje. When he plays for the Netherlands he is a different beast, I see a passion that is lacking from his club games. He will do anything for Oranje, run his socks off, play out wide, defend, defend, defend. He just simply does not offer that in club football, he is so static. Practically useless unless behind a striker and offers little in defence.
  6. I do prefer Soldado, but Negredo is alright. I can't complain.
  7. Juan Mata is doing a great job replacing Lampard's goals and assists. Lamps is too unique of a player to just replace, I honestly can't name another person who plays in a similar style to Lamps.
  8. James Joyce would also be applicable. The dense and long winded arguments reminds me of the time I tried to read Ulysses, I read the first few words became bored and put it down. Though, I do admire that he will sit at his computer and hammer out something that long everytime. That's great dedication.
  9. I have no idea how WBA didn't score just then. Freaky.
  10. So it continues. Why do I come to thread expecting something different? The only place to be vs. super frank8 is now taking bets.
  11. Providing for his missus and son. I often see him post in live match day threads.
  12. I'm a serious kind of fella. Besides, I'm so hungover that I can't handle anything. My hands are shaking and other stuff.
  13. So? I don't need someone else's allowance to make a statement.
  14. I don't know, I can't remember a thing. It's just general anxiety.
  15. Newcastle are probably going to land Debuchy. I'll take any chance to use this photo.
  16. Gazza was a good player, but looked at how he turned out. Sometimes their personality is just too strong and it affects everything around them, whether it be the manager or the squad.
  17. The manager probably doesn't like him. He is more than a bit of a twat.
