A Rooney in shit form still offers a lot to his team like creating and assisting, using his pace on the wings, and helping the defense. Whilst playing an off-form Torres is like playing with 10 men.

I certainly hope not. Those three can hardly have any influence on our season.

That's a bit harsh. He is no slower than Lampard tbh. Besides, I don't know a single player with better shooting technique than Kroos, not that he'd ever leave Bayern.

The Ivanovic one is a real blow, especially now, I hope he is fit for monday. About Mikel, why was he even selected over Romeu?

I am content. Of course there are some "what if"s as there always is, but this is where I expected us to be by now. Can't hope for anything more with our current squad.

Off topic: Who got injured yesterday?

Thanks guys. A little surprised to hear that we defended resolutely throughout the game, we haven't been able to do that in most games this season.

I had to miss the game yesterday. I am satisfied by the result because it was very important not to lose. Can anyone please tell me who was the better team?

I'd still support him too even if he was dumb enough to say that.

I hope he takes this chance, he running out of straws.

He's had enough loan moves, he needs to have the chance he deserves with the first team.

Yes please.

What are the odds that he is found guilty and not get punished by the FA?

^^ I'm not sure we can afford to let Ryan go on loan. What happens if Ashley picks up a long term injury in feb?

Ridiculous imo. He probably had a fight with someone in Chelsea TV and the dailyfail thought "How can we use this make AVB look bad?"

AVB's response practically confirmed we are interested. I just hope we can do what red nose is usually good at and finish this deal early on. The longer it drags on the higher we'll have to pay.

Btw Tomo, forgive me if I did not accept your invitation, I have no Idea how to do so!

This has been very informative. I learned that I really hate QPR fans.

I agree that Lampards word were twisted immensely. I am not worried as long as AVB has the backing of the board.

Luiz out is a blow. Lets hope Iva and Bos can replicate their performance against Man city. (Except the first 2 minutes of course )

Yeah I read that a few days ago, but I don't think he can ever replicate his form of 2006.

Oh I thought it starts automatically. Thanks for the info.

The french press reporting today that Beckham has agreed to sign with PSG.

Never tried it before, but I signed up a couple of days ago. When is the league starting?

That's a bit harsh on Pizarro. You don't become the Bundesliga's top scorer unless you're a great striker. He's not doing too bad this season either, already has 12 goals for Bremen.
