The diagonal stripe seems out of place...they could have done better to make it blend in or better yet, do away with the whole thing.

Thanks for posting that...Should probably be made into some sort of sticky note, so as to prevent more questions regarding the transfer.

Lol...he seems to be comparing them like Torres and Drogba..

Yes, he linked up well with Fellaini and Hazard today.His cross for Terry's goal against Blackburn also shows there's more to his game, than just being a goal poacher.

Not vouching for Kalou, but he can pick out players (occasionally). Remember the Drogba goal against Utd at OT 2 years ago? Offside yes, but its an example of how Kalou can play the good passes.

I think more than half the clowns in the media, were expecting Hazard to do something flashy like Ronaldo. The fact is, he was playing very intelligently today, keeping possession, and playing the right passes. The only time he ever gave up possession was when he shot on target. Will fit in easily at any good side.

England on the other hand is too dependent on Young and Gerrard for creativity. Hard to imagine that James Milner was a title winner this season.

Wish Hazard saw more of the ball like he did towards the end of the 1st half. He really knows how to pick out players from his setpieces. There was also an instance where he could have blazed past Cole, but Scotty Parker went and fouled Fellaini to halt play.

To make things worse, he'll most likely face a Chelsea defense! Clearly a no-win for us in that case. Just hope he plays on the left wing though.

Words of advice to posters when seeing a crappy post/spam: Ignore it. Let the mods deal with it when they see it. At the most, report it to a mod. That should prevent a lot of unnecessary arguments.

Interesting...have often seen him stand behind Lamps and Didier for the fk's, but I always thought that was just to intimidate the opposition.

True, that's how he was used. But he's become a better team-player with us, so we'll see whether he can adapt next season.

Nice read mate. Will be particularly interesting to see whether Torres can take on the "Trequartista" role. As opposed to most Spanish strikers, he has a strong build, and is an aerial threat. His passing and footwork should serve him well, when it comes to hold-up/build up play. With more natural wingers coming in, the front 3 of that 4-3-3 should become more viable.

If I remember right, he has picked up a similar injury once before for England. The reason for that one apparently, was a long flight in a cramped position, followed by training immediately afterwards.

Shame really...wanted to see if he could bring some of the Chelsea magic to England.

Well mate, if it cheers you up a little, I'll be there for you....Hope you can tolerate the occasional leave of absence, though.

Feeling a bit left out?

Yeah, but does that really matter? Villa in place of Sanchez. You know who has a better chance of scoring.

Not vouching for Pep or his style of play, but it would have easily worked against us if he had a proper striker (David Villa) upfront to finish the chances they created. Same goes for Arsenal, and an in-form Vanpersie

Well speaking of blue machines, we'll be going from this: to this;

Yeah, the guy who uploads them on youtube, nicolastale, has a pretty good collection...This is another one I've seen;

Dang...for a second there I thought Kalou had left.

I'd keep a cricket bat in hand as well, but I sure as hell wouldn't chase after it!
