Too slow

Really rafa? Torres?!! Just when I was getting my hopes up.. At least no Luiz in midfield.

Cech; Azpili, Ivan, Cahill, Cole; Ram, Lamps ©; Oscar, Mata, Hazard; Torres. - subs: Turn, Fer, JT, Bert, Ake, Marin, Ba.

Szczesny; Sagna, Mertesacker, Vermaelen, Gibbs; Diaby, Coquelin; Walcott, Wilshere, Cazorla; Giroud.

Fullham road atm: And Sky just confirmed the match is going ahead.

No way will the match be postponed. Here is the pitch now:

It's about short-term or long-term success. This is what I, and many other members where saying during AVB's time here. We, as a club, had a choice to make between instant gain, by firing Andre and getting our older players a manager they like, or long-term gain by keeping Andre, trusting his philosophy and the style of play he was trying to implement and raising our younger players on that philosophy. You are right, there is no proof that had we kept AVB we would turn into a club with stability and one that integrates youth players on a regular basis like Bayern, but that certainly won't happen with our current policy with managers. You can't say that the trophies we've won the last 10 years have been because of us firing managers. There are tons of other variables the most significant of those is the amount of money we spent. Our success has been largely been thanks to that. But eventually, as Neville points out in the article, you are going to run out of top-quality managers that are willing to join your club. My fear is that we are turning into a club that is largely unattractive to managers and players.

Robben didn't leave us, we sold him. And it was a good decision looking at his injury record. Madrid paid over the odds for him.

Spot on Mr. Neville.

Most of the times it is several people answering the questions unless I can't find a forum that allows me to post them. Thanks for letting me you never read them, Rmpr

He posted this on Instagram, legend:

Where did you get those numbers from? Seems very unlikely.

Completely agree. I made this same point before we signed him and was called an idiot. With the likes of Mata and Hazard, all it takes is a good finisher and he can easily get 20 goals a season if he stays fit.

Ferguson really fucked up with this one. That goal aside, he has been amazing whenever he plays. It's like watching Patrik Viera! Pogba just scored another screamer! EDIT: Here it is: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xww34g_pogba-2-spherachannel_sport#from=embediframe

He has instagram?

Missing all the action because greedy Al Jazeera decided that you have to pay extra $20 to watch the AFCONs

Nice little interview with him: http://m.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/10172716.Kane_sure_he___s_able_to_play_part_at_Blackburn_Rovers/ Some Rovers fans were saying he was their best man today.

My world! Pogba, son, take a f***ing bow! http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xww2f9_pogba-spherachannel_sport#from=embediframe

So?

Doing much better in the second half. In the first he seemed to just stand between 2-3 defenders and point at his legs.

Agreed. Josh was doing well next to Leadbitter, but the Boro manager said he wanted him further up front to dribble past players and take on shots; said he does it well in training. Completely baffles me, tbh.

ESPN and BBC now. An official conformation on the Chelsea FC website should be up sometime around June

Telegraph and Sky running the story. Basically confirmed :blue scalf:

Beat you to it

Agreed a one year extension according to the Sun! Please be true!
