RIP

So he is on the bench? Either way, he's as likely to get minutes on the pitch as Liverpool are of winning the league!

Yes, good point. Especially that the games are on thursday, meaning the players will probably return on friday morning which would be very tiring if they play in the PL on saturday. But still, the team can't just stop their persuit of fourth place, not with only a two point gap.

We're always looking for games for our younger players. There won't be any pressure because no one cares about actually winning the league.

He's not even on the bench for swansea today. We should just recall him.

Happy Birthday

Now I want us to reach the final more than ever.

Both blue bulls and Baselona slipped and I'm back to first!

Full prematch conference:

It's not very good, but this is the only highlights video I could find (hope Esk uploads something about the match):

Let's not also forget that a player, especially a playmaker, is only as good as his team. Yes silva is an inteligent world-class player, but he is able to make the passes that prove he is so because his teammates offer great movement and runs off the ball. Mata isn't as lucky.

I love your ava

^^ Thanks

So as it stands they go to extra time?

Do away goals count?

The games against us where his only decent performances all season. In other matches he had been catastrophic. Every time the ball is in the air, he will have trouble dealing with it. You can imagine how that worked out against the likes of Stoke and Blackburn.

^^ Yes, he was on the bench at Fulham.

He has apparently "fallen ill". This is getting ridiculous!

*cough* De Gea*cough* In England, everything is more physical, even for a keeper. On every corner or even cross there'd be players blocking his way and pushing him when the ref isn't looking. And he'd never face a Rory Delap throw-in for instance in Spain. I think that takes some getting used to, so it's better he does it at another club first.

I wanted us to sign him when Tottenham rejected our bid for Modric. Class player.

I just love that goal. By far my favourite Chelsea goal of all time!

Stay strong mate.

I too prefer a team that is not afraid to put in tackles iin a match. It's good to have a team that is physical, because other wise you'll turn into Barcelona

^^ I just hope it finishes in 90mins. It would be a total disaster for us if it goes to extra time.
