  1. I love Caballero (think he's a fucking nutter), but doesn't he just show how brilliant Courtois is at commanding the box!
  2. Don't sweat the fact he can't play UCL. We only have two games left in that competition anyway.
  3. This is far, far, far too good to be true. Either that or I was just resigned to Andy fucking Carroll, even Jermain Defoe would have been an improvement.
  4. His performance against Brighton will still probably be an improvement on recent showings.
  5. He's fucking decent at stopping penalties!
  6. We'll be 4th by tomorrow, most likely out of both cups within a couple of weeks, too. Shocking.
  7. You're right, he was good against Atletico, however his MOTM award against Huddersfield was, for me, the biggest surprise I've seen in football since Leicester won the title. He did a couple of backheels and Robbie Savage on BT comms was jizzing everywhere. He doesn't convince me, never has, and probably never will.
  8. Even I have to admit that he's being ignorant with his team selection and tactics.
  9. We're going to have to disagree, here. I respect your opinion but think you're watching highlights of his performances from last season. I can't remember his last meaningful positive contribution to the team.
  10. The problem is we've said this about 10 times this season.
  11. This is exactly the point I'm making. He's been awful since the Newcastle game, yet he pulls off some stupid backheel and people wank off over him. He's so incredibly over-rated
  12. Right on cue, he's been horrendously shite today.
  13. You don't help your reputation by over-reacting because I said your compatriot isn't world class. There is no need to be so salty, I didn't call him shit and say I wanted to slap his grandmother.
  14. What Conte is doing with the sack of shit some of you refer to as "our best XI", is nothing short of miraculous. We won the league thanks to his revolutionary decision to do something that (in my opinion) had not been done consistently successfully in England before by switching to the back three. Let me just state that again - we won the league with a right-back, Gary Cahill, and David fucking Luiz as our three CBs. Miracle worker. He'll go to another huge club and piss the league there, too.
  15. If it was up to me, we'd have spunked £100m on Dybala already by now and have a half-decent back-up striker in place, ready for a push for Sandro or another LWB candidate who can actually defend... sadly it isn't up to me and I recognise that this club's ambition is now to sign B-list players from mid-table PL clubs in order to bump up the English contingent.
  16. Has there ever been a more nailed-on 1-1 draw? Can't see us being able to deal with their pace on the counters without sacrificing attacking creativity... I expect a Bakayoko-Kante-Drinkwater midfield and for Hazard and Morata to both be at their usual invisible and ineffective best.
  17. We're no longer an A-List Club. It's not even as if we're not at the top table anymore - because we still are. We are just about still an elite European club (but that is largely down to the fact that the state of European football in general is far weaker now than it was even 4 or 5 years ago). However, whilst everybody else at the top table shows at Marks and Spencers or Waitrose, we're not even window shopping at Asda. We're walking down the aisles at Lidl, looking at the likes of Andy Carroll to somehow save our season. I have no expectation for Antonio Conte to be here next year, because he has absolutely no say on matters. We might as well not even bother having a manager - I wouldn't be surprised to see the return of another yes man, such as Avram Grant.
  18. A PL loan would be ideal, but only if we can impose some sort of minimum appearances clause.
