Nic!

That was dumb Malouda.

Swansea playing ball around nicely.

I do, at home. But not at my studenthome, where I stay most of the time. I can use the account from home to watch it via their website (Yele.be) though. So nice quality and Flemish commentary.

Trying to not get my hopes up for some Lukaku time. Can't count the times AVB let me, sitting in front of PC wearing Lukaku's CFC shirt, down.

Just watched the interview with him. Some points that were noticable: - He made it very clear he's not moving this transfer period, will leave in the summer. - He will not go to PSG, he says he played enough games in Ligue 1, won both Cup and Championship. - When asked what his favorite destination (countrywise) would be, he clearly said 'England' - He chooses England above the rest because you can learn there the most - When asked which club in England, he just said 'a top club' - When asked to be more specific, he said: "Well, I'm not going to a team to sit on the bench." - The interviewers then said: 'So Manchester clubs are out?', he basicly agreed without saying anything - Then he said: "I will also choose a club that fits my style" - Interviewer 1 suggested Arsenal - Hazard remained silent - Interviewer 2 suggested Chelsea - Hazard remained silent - End of interview It felt to me that he's more eager to join Arsenal. But they're also talking about 45 million and nothing less. So that rules Van Persie FC I guess.

Chelsea's Director said he thinks that Chelsea's plan for Kevin is to do the same as with Courtois. Loan him again next year. But that's how Chelsea sees it now. I think this will be decided based on his pre-season.

Welcome Kevin!

Yes, they're saying that KDB will give a press conference regarding his transfer this Wednesday. Genk also confirmed loan-back until end of June.

"But Chelsea maintained an interest and have now sealed the move, which will see the youngster stay with Genk on loan until the end of the season." - SkySports

He signed for 8 million euro, but there could be another 1,5 million euro involved performance-based.

Woot! Game's on Belgian TV. I hope to see Lukaku in action (for a decent amount of time). It's clear Lukaku only gets a chance when Chelsea is more than 1 goal up or not winning.

Le Roman: "I really want Hazard signing for us this summer. He's looking to go to England anyway." Le AVB: "Well, we have Lukaku & Courtois. Man City has Kompany and Boyata. Man United have De Laet. Arsenal has Vermaelen." Le Roman: "Okay, lets get another Belgian then. Any suggestions?" Le AVB: "This Kevin guy looks promising." Le Roman: "Great, I'll wait till transfer deadline day to seal the deal. He'll join us in the summer so Hazard can choose Chelsea based on the fact that we have a shitload of Belgians." Le AVB: "Excellent." Le Roman: "Oh, and André. Try to play some decent football from now on, 'kay?' Le AVB: "Well, I don't have Hazard right now..."

Yes, the most trustworthy source in in Belgium is reporting this as well. KDB is doing is medical tests today, then signing for 5.5 years for a fee of 8 million euro.

Account seems legit, because Cabaye answered to that tweet: @hazardeden10 au CFC, propre sur lui comme d'habitude.. Ne dis pas de bêtises, je te regarde!! So basicly, they're talking about CFC, Canal Football Club that is. A French TV show. Not Chelsea FC. Cabaye replied: "Don't tell any lies, I'm watching you!!".

Now in Belgian press. Hazard not leaving Lille this winter. But almost 100% certain leaving in the summer. Also said PSG is an attractive club, but when he's going away it's to a club abroad. Not in France that is.

Lille won 3-0 against Saint-Etienne. One goal and one assist from Eden Hazard.

Like BlueLion said, I (implicitely) meant in recent history.

You are 100% correct. I wasn't trying to single out just Torres. Everybody (expect for back four) was simply not good enough today. But with Torres, my expactations are even higher than for the rest. Cause he's intrinsicly the best player on the field. And it bothers me that he can't ventilate his talent.

For Chelsea it's just not good enough. I'm not trying to be cynical, but really. I've been waiting for games where Chelsea is 2-0 up after an hour. Can you count one, just one, since AVB is manager? I'm not suggesting AVB should go, I'm suggesting he needs to get some balls and use them to make some (drastic) changes. It's time.

Sorry man, I'm all pro-Torres, really. But today he was nowhere. He didn't score, but that's no surprise. But even when he doesn't score he's at least usefull. Not today. Expect for one or two proper actions today, he's done barely something good.

Torres, awful game.

Luiz, that was stupid.

No Lukaku minutes today.

Wow, that was not a penalty.

That was bigger chance than Malouda made it believe to be.
