Agreed. Remy can take #14 or #18.

I'll do a happy dance if this comes off.

And he might not even be loaned at all if Torres leaves and we fail to bring in Destro or Remy.

Stingray is by far the most suitable candidate for such a job.

Fuck you David, fuck. you.

Torres is like thrush, he just keeps coming back.

Imagine if we got Juventus, Leverkusen and Monaco

I also use Kasperksy 2013 and have no problems...

In other words, he's out for a while. If it was hardly anything to worry about they wouldn't have commented.

As a couple of posters have said, we played them in 2009, but it would be wonderful if we could acknowledge Matthew Harding's life with a minute's applause at the start of the game.

Now or never...

Sign Falcao, Cavani, Destro and Zlatan immediately.

Really want United away. Edit: oh.

PLEASE STAY NANDO!

I'm ambidextrous (can write with both hands) but right-footed. One of my best mates is left-handed but right-footed, even my old man, who is left-handed, is a right-footer as well. Just depends on what you use most when growing up.

Preach.

He started last season brilliantly and look what happened... I hope the genuine competition he has this season helps maintain these performances.

Don't jinx it, we all went mental when Ba scored two on his debut as well....

Some of the posts in this thread are just so... dismissive of Cech. Heartbreaking to read. Discarded like a leper.

José Mourinho has praised his side for their second-half display as his Chelsea side overcame Leicester City this afternoon. The Blues were made to work hard for the three points against the Championship league winners, eventually securing the win through goals by Diego Costa and Eden Hazard. "In the second half we had complete control", Mourinho said. "Leicester came with great defensive intensity, and they tried to scare us with their counter-attack. "We were a bit slow - slow in moving the ball and slow thinking and we needed to change and we did that. We didn't play good in the first half, but the second half was complete control". Mourinho admitted his side were lucky to not go a goal behind when Thibaut Courtois miraculously denied David Nugent one-on-one. "I don't forget their good chance with the result at 0-0, but we created so many chances in the second half that we deserved the victory". The Portuguese was not dismissive of the visitors this afternoon, and was full of praise for Leicester and their bold approach to the match - a sentiment echoed by Foxes boss Nigel Pearson: "I thought we played exceptionally well but you have to take your chances when you create them". "There are more positives today than there are negatives. We're not talking about us coming to places like this and being happy to lose the game, but I think the players showed what they're capable of. What we need to do is sustain it for the entirety of the game". Mourinho was also pleased with Diego Costa maintaining his scoring start in a Chelsea shirt, but it was his other Spanish striker who he reserved a little of the post-match praise for, at the same time as expressing a desire for the player to stay at Stamford Bridge. "Fernando [Torres] is an important player. I want him to stay and be one of my three strikers. He will play. I want him to stay, I believe he will". Click here to view the article

Diego Costa netted on his Stamford Bridge début as Chelsea scored two second-half goals to overcome a resolute Leicester City. After a rather insipid opening forty-five minutes, the game exploded after the break with both sides creating excellent goalscoring opportunities. Foxes keeper Kasper Schmeichel made two outstanding stops from Branislav Ivanovic either side of Oscar rattling the goalframe with a curling effort, whilst at the opposite end Thibaut Courtois produced a miraculous one-on-one save after David Nugent ran clear. But in a game that Chelsea bossed both territorially and in terms of ball possession, it came as no surprise when Costa was able to give the Blues a warranted breakthrough on 63 minutes. Rather than capitulate, Leicester continued to defend manfully, but up against a Blues offence boasting pace, guile and ingenuity, the constant pressure eventually told and Eden Hazard was on hand to make the points safe with a trademark drive from the edge of the box. Chelsea produced 27 shots on goal - ten of which on target - most of which in a second period full of attacking dynamism and flair. It is a tell-tale sign of Chelsea's Premier League title candidacy that they were ultimately able to overcome their stubborn opponents - last year it was precisely this sort of game that cost the Blues in the race for the league crown. José Mourinho opted for the same starting eleven that so gloriously disposed of Burnley on Monday evening, though Ramires was welcomed back into the first team fold as a substitute following his absence through suspension - and the sort of direct play offered by the Brazilian was precisely the thing Chelsea were short of in the opening exchanges. It was in fact the visitors who had the first shot in anger, as Mahrez produced a low save out of Courtois with a fierce drive from the edge of the box. It was clear Leicester would not be content with parking the bus and hoping for the best, and when Chelsea finally showed some penetration with 35 minutes played, Wes Morgan was on hand to throw himself in front of Costa's goalbound effort after a clever cut-back by Hazard. That represented Chelsea's best and only meaningful opportunity in a half largely controlled by Nigel Pearson's side. Whatever Mourinho said to his charges at half-time seemed to do the trick, though, as his side re-emerged with renewed fire after the interval. Their intentions were signalled inside two minutes when Oscar's bending shot beat Schmeichel but not the base of the far post, and just 23 seconds later the City goalkeeper was forced into action to beat away a Branislav Ivanovic header. Courtois was then called into action in the most significant moment of his fledgling Stamford Bridge career so far when he expertly denied Nugent one-on-one. The importance of that save cannot be underestimated in determining the final result of this game. Schmeichel was proving an equally unbreachable barrier as he made a full-length save to divert an Ivanovic drive wide, and minutes afterwards he was again required to parry over a cheeky chip by Cesc Fabregas. Costa then supplied the telling touch as he converted a deflected Ivanovic cross after 63 minutes, and after Hazard had already once had one shot saved, the Belgian provided the killing blow just ten minutes later as he beat a swathe of defenders before threading the ball underneath Schmeichel via a slight deflection. By that time both Ramires and Willian had been introduced, and the Brazilian duo's energy had served only to take the game away from Leicester - and the latter may well have added to the scoreline when his fierce strike was tipped over after a mazy run. The loudest cheer of the day was reserved for the return to Stamford Bridge of Didier Drogba as the Blues threw down a marker in their challenge for the title following a more testing afternoon than many people predicted.

We're egging them on so they overcommit, and we hit them on the counter. Ain't working so far, though!
