Did you guys notice that their goal came from Maloudas reluctance to fucking center the ball to torres and instead gets easily tackled and they counter. Fucking hate malouda

He is not fucking useless. The other players (MALOUDA) are. He is poor, yes. But that is not entirely his fault. Fucks sake

What is the difference between bringing Torres on in the 60th min when malouda came on? Malouda has been dire AS USUAL. FFS I'm not asking to sacrifice the teams performance for him. But if you've watched the last 20mins you've seen how useless we are creatively. One goal would do wonders for torres ahead of The man utd game And what the fuck was that by malouda? Torres was absolutely open and didn't pass. Fucking joke.

Torres needs to score or he'll continue with this shit. Lampard is giving him absolutely nothing to work with jfc

I'm not talking about M&S being taken off. But Torres should have been given at least 10mins with mata IMO. He could have been brought on earlier. He's been on for 10mins and has had one touch. And malouda has had his usual pathetic shot

Don't see the sense in bringing Torres on with both Mata and sturridge not involved.. Same ol shit from last season. Why not bring on Torres when malouda came on and give him some time with Mata

Why are we bringing on malouda?

Damn I missed it! Well done Danny!!!!

I'd take sturridge off and bring Torres on

Torres isn't so emotionally fragile. If anything I see this spurring him on to improve his performances.

First time in a LONG time that I'm excited after seeing our starting lineup

Danny starts

Yes that's what dan levene said on twitter. Too much traveling

You guys need to chill about lukaku. He isn't going to play THAT much this season

Everyones saying that Anelka will be upfront, but I would think that Danny will be the CF with nico on the right, don't you guys agree?

VERY interested to find out if Torres has been dropped. Would be curious to see how he reacts to being dropped by Spain and us in the same week. Hopefully fired up and bangs a couple in off the bench. Also excited to see anelka sturridge mata, if true. Hope danny will be given the wonderful boost of being chosen as the main man.

Whoa! Didn't expect that

Jesus Christ man... I almost threw my phone out the window

Team news out soon..... Please please please no Kalouda

I remember reading an article that had an apparent quote with the BL manager saying he would give Micha the "honour of starting the match". Either way he will probably be subbed on or off so he'll get a great reception from the fans :D

Re: the Gyan news.... WTF?!?!?! Strange. So he's gone there for the money huh? Shame.. He's pretty decent and can do so much better

I can't see Sturridge starting, but hope AVB proves me wrong. As long as neither malouda or kalou start, I'll be okay.

I'm very glad that the two players we've sent out on loan - PVA and Kakuta - are going to be managed by Martinez and Coyle. Hopefully they'll both be fruitful experiences

yeah I didn't mean the injuries are his fault, but he should have signed more (and better) players and they wouldn't rue the loss of Wilshere and Vermaelen so much. He should have coughed up the additional 6-8 mil and gotten Cahill -- he wanted to join. Now, who knows whether they'll be able to get him in January. They should have also signed Samba. He's above-average but more than that, they actually need a defender like him. Instead they're once again stuck with Squillaci and the other muppets. Chamakh is absolute crap. and RVP is so over-rated, jeez. but yeah, with strikers like Bentdner, Chamakh etc over the years, they've found it easy to overvalue the importance of RVP

I do hope he gets a good amount of games. AVB and Owen Coyle are buddies so they must've communicated about it. The loan to Fulham last season was a waste of time; I'm glad he didn't go back there.
