Constructive? He hasn't even played for us for over 10 days and yet he's all we can talk about. Half the threads in the "Current Squad" section are right now dedicated to this "constructive criticism" (I'm sorry, but comparing Oscar to Coutinho and Joe f***ing Allen, is not criticism, it's just embarrassing). So, I'd personally call it a mild obsession. But excuse my rant, it wasn't aimed at you in particular. Yes, we should definitely get back to Cesc.

Why don't we just rename all the threads into "Oscar"? Please, get back on topic or take the discussion into the appropriate thread.

Well this a Chelsea forum and he is a Chelsea paler so the odds of finding "love" for him and any of our other players are high. At least that's what you'd expect, but reading through the threads I reckon half the posts are bashing and over bashing of our players. You'd think half our members were Liverpool fans in disguise. The love and support are always good to see, for any member of the team. It's the bashing and agendas against players that I never get.

Last player to do that with us is Adrian Mutu

He was creating all of their chances in the first half. Too bad he has Mario Gomez up top.

Gatusso makes a terrible coach. But he makes an excellent mob leader

I those in particular we don't get fees for because their wages are relatively high. I remember last season we paid about half of Nathanial's wages for his loan to Forrest. Burnely are of course can pay more, but I'm not sure they'd be willing to pay the full 30k/wk for a 20 year old.

Gave you a like just for the avatar!

Well this came out of no where: My word! Best of luck to him.

What are you even talking about? The Saddam regime was complete secular and, culturally, his era only helped 'westernize' the Iraqi societies. Apart from politics, it was a liberal progressive country, as was Syria under Al Asad. I can assure you that the female vagina was way better off under both than now.

Not at all. If you had read the post, you would have noticed that I made the point that the ideology is not hundreds of years old but was started in the late 70s and has been started and sustained only through billions and billions of Western money to emulate an ideology or rather and era that had long been gone in time as is proof by the fact that it did not exist in the slightest in any part of the middle east prior to 2003. Try again:

David has A LOT of heart. A lot of 'Grinta'. But if the issue is positional errors in midfield, then I can't imagine he'd be the solution because that was one of his biggest weaknesses there.

It seems you're attempt to run away from all the facts I made in that post is a bit too obvious, so I'll quote them again for you: Good luck coming up with a proper response.

Yes, you did. The root of this ideology is the south of what was the Soviet Union where your country and the US spent millions on arming and funding extremists groups to fight against the soviet union. More importantly, millions were paid to Sheikhs to promote this ideology of Jihad among people in Mosques (especially in Friday prayers) and convincing Muslims that it is their duty. The religious leaders of this movement who later became the leaders of Al Qaeda, all spent some time in their lives living in the UK. Ben Laden, Al Zarqawi...etc. All of them. Look them up. The ideology only crept into the middle east after invasion of Iraq. They had a place with no order and peace to grow and with people that were willing to do anything to fight the invading forces. Contrary to what you are told, very very few minorities in Iraq supported western involvement, let alone an invasion. They hated Saddm, but not as much as the UK and US. But your governments never really severed all the ties with them. I remember in 2004 or 2005 when a Qaeda related group killed a few Lebanese Army soldiers. The army hunted them and killing and arresting a bunch of them. That is when Condalisa Rice herself decided to come to Lebanon to convince our President at the time Emile Lahoud to release the extremists, funny right? The US knew they could still use them and they did. A revolution was shaping up in several countries at the start of the 2010s. It had absolutely nothing to do with religion or even politics. It started with a guy setting himself on fire because the police had confiscated his vegetable cart! But after they lost an ally in Tunisia the US decided to ride the wave...well where it suited them at least. They brought their old extremist friends to the party. They had a beef to settle with practically all the existing regimes in the area, The NATO armed and funded them in Lybia and got what they wanted, they backed them in Egypt (different group, but not too dissimilar) but Syria was different. Al Assad had a strong army and the backing of A LOT of his people. Billions of dollars worth of weapons were given to them, and to be fair, secular Syrian rebels. But the secular rebels disappeared in time and part of the extremists groups turned against the US and the other extremists groups and formed what is known as IS. Those barbarians you talk about have never in their history fought with anything except for 'your' weapons. And they never bought those weapons, they were always given to them to serve a political objective of yours. You really know nothing of your own countries interventions in the region, do you? The Baath party in Iraq was first brought to power by the US and UK to overthrow Qasim and minimize the power of the communist party in the country. Then Saddam himself was helped by your governments to force Al Bakr into retirement and replace him and execute hundreds of leaders in his party to stop a proposed Iraqi-Syrian unity that Al Bakr. He was 'your' man from the start and did your bidding for a long time. He took his whole country to war with Iran after the Islamic revolution for your sake alone.

Impossible. That's his middle name!

Didn't know where to put this, but so much legend in one pic!

By not helping to create them in the first place? Stop arming and supporting them in Syria and Libya (and to a lesser extent Egypt). Aim to actually end them instead of just keeping things in the balance in order to use them for political gains when you want. Collaborate with with Iran, Al Assad and Hezboullah to form an alliance against them. That would be a good start...

As long as it counts for the right team, I honestly don't care who the goals goes down for.

Thibaut MUST be the priority now.

Thank you, sir. I was only kidding of course about reading the article I think, judging by his post-match interview, Jose will be working a lot on with the players it in training.

Not talking about numbers, but about performances and he was brilliant last season in so many matches. You're talking about the only two Juve matches you've probably watched last season i.e. against Real, but those two mistakes are literally the only two he made all season. He was amazing in the league pulling off incredible saves at critical times very often in matches.

Buffon was BY FAR the best keeper in Italy last season. I've said this before, but it was one of the best seasons in his career. The two seasons before that he was often injured and out of form. PS: Handanovic's footwork is rather poor. And it takes him about half an hour to get down to a low shot.

Why do I feel that no one apart from Barbara actually ready the whole article? My fault, I guess, for making it so long

FML....

Completely stopped doing this. Lost all interest to be honest. So if anyone wants to take my team, feel free.
