Let me put it this way: If we were Barcelona and had the likes of messi and xavi and all the best players in the world, then we can moan about having Mikel in our squad. But for the current Chelsea squad, Mikel is definitely one of our better players. He is by no means our main concern this summer. For me, Mikel does the job just fine. He is no Maka, but then again very few are. He might not score 30m strikes or get past 3-4 players, but what is extraordinary about Obi is his sublime passing with one of the best accuracy in the league and his great tactical discipline. I don't expect everyone to apreciate the role Mikel plays, but saying that he should go when half of our squad are well over their prime is very harsh.

At a pub if I can find reservations somewhere. I'll probably end up watching it at home, though.

LMAO He can stay at Arsenal. In fact they can take Bosingwa with him as well.

Back off, he's mine!

I didn't watch him tonight, but from the last few matches he has played, for me, he has completely justified the hype around him. I'm usually not very optimistic about talents from our youth academy, but I honestly think he and Feruez might just make it through!

Yeah, maybe this should be decided during the pre-season depending on how good Hillario plays. Either way I think the club has already taken the decision to loan Thibaut back.

Thanks We just won the FA youth cup, why isn't anyone celebrating on here?

Fully deserved win for Madrid, Bielsa got completely owned in terms of tactics.

Shocking! I'd explain how much those two have done for the club in the past especially in the double winning season, but I'm sure you're already aware of that.

So? What was the final score?

Hillario has done very little wrong this season. He should be an adequate back up for Cech next season, imo, unless Petr suffers from a lengthy injury in which case we would recall Courtoise. I think it is in Chelsea best interest that Courtoise gets all the games and expirience he can now so that he could reach his full potential with the club in the future.

Good luck mate

Where is Justin? I don't see him claiming that he was right and that we should have signed Bielsa instead of AVB

Falcao again! 2-0 Bilbao.

Athletico's defence as a whole is extremely solid, everyone is just so tactically disciplined.

It's actually No.3 since the Chelsea U17 girls team also won the FA cup last week The boys must not get too confident despite the 4-0 lead, it is vital that concentration levels are sky-high, just like we won 4-0 they can turn the tables on us and win by a similar margin. COYB :cfc:

^ Gracias!

I'd see a doctor before posting about it on TC if I were you!

Isn't the return leg tonight?

I think what Robbie said summarizes it all: " Let's be objective, we have played 37 matches in the league this season, fourth place was not lost today or against Newcastle". As for the FA cup, it is most definitely worth the sacrifices. It is after all the oldest and one of the most treasured cups in the world.
