OneMoSalah

I think he has been over hyped, not by you specifically but by a lot of Chelsea fans who said he should be starting ahead of Lamps at the start of this season and that he should be used as our main creative midfielder etc. He does have potential just not the potential to dislodge someone like Lamps, Meireles or Mata from the attacking midfield position.

Yes we have. I've heard people called him the English Xavi.... he is good for his age but hes not "the English Xavi" or even the English Iniesta for that matter.

Lets be honest, we have over hyped him imo. He can still make it though, we just need to be careful in what we do next season.

Oh haha

Isn't Dzagoev not Russian too? So now we have to hope Roman has an all of a sudden urge to take in a highly talented Russian midfielder... FOR FREE. What a signing this would be. Perfect.

Welcome mate, stick around and never mind that guy haha!

Should get games either next season or the one after imo.

Hahahaha well put.

He has a dream to play in the PL, Dortmund's coach and his agent said this I'm sure. Hes apparently off to United though, its meant to be a "done deal" for 20 odd million.

How could I forget Chalobah in my post, omg :banghead:

Seen someone mention this on twitter earlier, do yous think we should give the younger players a chance to get some game time now in the PL since we are not getting top 4 after last nights defeat? The likes of Lukaku, Lucas Piazon, Bamford, Hutch, Romeu and even Davilla (since hes now back at the club) could do with some sort of experience/more games despite some of them "possibly" not being ready yet. I think in the Blackburn game, Lukaku, Romeu and Sam should start and maybe see Piazon and Bamford get 20 minutes or something if we are winning by a few goals. Also against Liverpool I'm sure Lukaku could get at least 20-25 minutes there and Romeu and Hutch could possibly even start. Plus Bertrand is getting games and doing well now too so we can start him. Plus if the youngsters get game time, key players would be fresher for the Bayern game, which is actually what I think Bayern are doing as well as they have missed out on the league. Yes we don't have too many youngsters but if the likes of Lukaku, Piazon, Bamford, Hutch, Romeu, Davilla and Bertrand play, it could let us rest Torres, Drogba, Mata, Kalou, Luiz, Bosingwa, Lampard and Ashley so they are in good condition for the CL final. Anyway thoughts?

Yes I kind of though that but I think we have changed a lot in the last 2 or 3 years, plus Man City are just trying to do what we did like 6 or 7 years ago.

Lmao basically they want 50 million euros for a slightly better Darren Bent, I hope they don't say the same about Belhanda or the chances of us getting him is ridiculously slim even though the chance is slim right now due to the fact he will either go to Arsenal or Italy.

Ah well looks like hes going to City for money, says one thing about him doesn't it. Hes in it for the money, what a cunt.

At least we know where to get players from in the summer.. Newcastle

Cisse you cunt what a fucking goal though take a bow

If it is 21 or 29.5 million... fuck it lets pay the fee he is awesome.

Good luck to AVB, great manager just a pity things didn't work out here. Personally I think the Serie A is a superb league for him to try and implement his philosophy as it is much more tactical than the PL, Roma have a few decent young players too which he will surely like especially Lamela, Borini and Pjanic. Hope he is very successful there and proves his worth.

They come to Scotland to try and get CL football as you said and to try showcase themselves off to clubs in the PL I think.

Rangers are fading a bit due to difficult financial reasons and the fact they are in administration but I think the current Celtic side will become a good squad in the next year or two.. yes I might be slightly biased as I support Celtic as well as Chelsea lol! The likes of Izzaguire, Wanyama, Kayal, Forrest, Matthews, Hooper, Stokes, Ki, and Commons could all cut it in the PL imo and they will get better as they are only like 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 except Commons and Izzaguire who are 27 and 26 I think. Also there are a few Rangers players who could also make it in the PL, Naismith, McGregor, Davis and Goian maybe. Jelavic was an ex Rangers player and look at how well hes doing and Bougherra could of defos been in a top 8 team in the PL if he didn't go to Qatar for money as well. Scottish football in general is poor but some of the players in it aren't.

Mate, with the amount of money we have given yous in the last 10 years this is the least I expected... plus how can you say David Luiz is a flop when he is a beast and the fact Torres, Kalou, Malouda, Essien, Meireles etc are too good for the Portuguese league in general just shows how poor your league must be if they are "terrible". Anyway isn't the Portuguese league not a two horse race ... so thats why Porto/Benfica usually win it? Yeah and we are the joke... clamp it idiot.

Seen something on twitter saying reports in France suggest PSG have bid for Hulk.... bastards!!

Lets be honest, right, we have an ageing squad which everyone says needs to be re-freshened so signing a player who is a year and a half (more or less) of 30 isn't the greatest idea is it? Yes Arjen was a beast when he was here but I don't think we will go for him because of his age and the fact he has said that he thinks Bayern will destroy us in the CL final lmao

seen it on the BBC gossip bit as well I think, its cheaper than I thought supposing they paid 15 for him in the first place..

That Spanish article is crazy why would Barca sell Dani Alves? I don't like him but he is essential to them...
