  1. We didn't learn from Man City, when, in 2014, after winning the PL, they didn't spend anything. We repeated that this year. I hope we can learn from them and wait until the end of the season before appointing the new manager. The team's confidence is already hanging by a thread... to completely undermine any rescue operation Hiddink is heading up would be counter-productive.
  2. In all honesty, Guus' superman image has now dissolved. I was one of those in the Shed back in 2009 (vs Blackburn when Malouda scored one of the best headers I've ever seen...) when we were singing "Guus Hiddink, we want you to stay" and "You can stick your Ancelotti up your arse". Guus' short reign in 2009 was a near-perfect period for the club. We went through a stage of being the most-feared team in Europe. We secured third place in style (that 4-1 win at the Emirates was the single best Chelsea away performance in the Abramovich era until City away in 2013/14), won the FA Cup, and only a cunt of a referee prevented us from getting revenge on United in the Champions League. We would have won that final in Rome. We'd have fucking smashed them, because we were unbeatable with an inspired coach. I remember him bringing Kalou off after half an hour in the 4-4 draw with Liverpool. He was having a shocker - so Guus brings on Anelka who ends up having the game of his life and sets up three goals for us to knock the Scouse cunts out. Even José didn't have the bollocks to pull stunts like that in a Champions League quarter-final! We all desperately wanted him to stay, because he got the best out of an outstanding squad. We played some very exciting football and we just would not fucking give up. This time round, it's almost as if he's realised this is an impossible job, trying to sort out a bunch of spineless tossers. He's done an incredible job - to get 25 points from 39 since he came in (especially since we only took 15 out of the first 48) is a massive, massive turn-around. But his team selection, his substitutions, and his approach to games in general have left an awful lot to be desired. We looked hopeless in both games vs PSG, and the Everton game on Saturday is the lowest I've felt in an unbelievably shit season. I can't blame him for not really giving a shit, especially considering the poverty options available to him, but when he came in, I think we all had serious hopes and ambitions that he'd genuinely inspire us on to win a piece of silverware of maybe even get us into the top 4 - another miracle job - in order to help plaster over the cracks of this campaign. But there just haven't been any signs that would indicate that, and now our season is over by mid-March. His biggest challenge, now, is motivating this bunch of bottlers for the final push in the Premier League.
  3. Who's unpinning this until September 2017, then?
  4. Buzzing to see "Payet vs Kenedy" in the hardcore section of PornHub on Saturday evening.
  5. Any manager with a pair of bollocks would have Baba and Aké rotating at LB next season, the same way Jose used Wayne Bridge and Ashley Cole in 06/07.
  6. I would add the following: Jesus Chuck Norris Rick Grimes Then we may stand a fighting chance of fourth place.
  7. This. Someone on the previous page said people are saying he has "regressed". Nobody is saying that. However, his performances are dire at the minute, though in fairness nobody else is exactly coming to the fore. He is young and needs time to develop and settle - replacing Cech, who was more of an institution than a goalkeeper, was always going to be difficult.
  8. We NEED a new CB to replace Terry. Any of Juve's four CBs - Barzagli, Chiellini, Bonucci, Cacares - would be an improvement on present options.
  9. There are only TWO ways the Club can appease the fans right now: Spunk HUNDREDS of millions on new players in the summer GIVE JT A NEW FUCKING CONTRACT
  10. Give Juventus whatever they want for Pogba and Dybala. If that's £50 million plus Oscar and maybe even another player, then no problem. Dybala would be the perfect strike partner off of Costa... 4-4-2 is making a come-back, ladies and gentlemen.
  11. Gutted Falcao wasn't on the poll, so I went for my number two man, Matic, instead.
  12. This is more of a joke than the Falcao move.
  13. Hope he leaves. He deserves better than this shit. Drogba was similarly right not to come back.
  14. I disagree. He had a superb season last year. My concerns, which are shared by many on this board, evidently, suggest he is performing well below his usual standards. He must believe he is undroppable as he has started in every game against Scunthorpe in the FA Cup since Hiddink arrived, despite some very insipid performances. If we had a braver manager than Hiddink, and/or someone who wouldn't accept second-rate performances, Courtois would be one of many rotting on the bench at present.
  15. On current evidence, so is Lukas Fabianski and Ben Foster.
  16. You're clearly missing the point, and/or blinded by the fact I'm criticising your countryman. He simply isn't good enough at the moment.
  17. The way I look at it: we're now only 9 games away from the end of this abysmally shite season.
  18. Drogba played with malaria and still gave 100%. Just saying.
  19. Victory/defeat today will make or break our season.
  20. He was fucking dogshite for a dogshite team, why would we want him? That being said, we're also dogshite.
  21. The sad thing is that Willian has actually been little better than 7/10 this season. Nothing against the kid, and he's playing out of his skin, but the fact he's been our best player shows how badly the rest of the squad has done.
  22. Bullshit Twitter rumours. These guys must be bored.
  23. Hope we do them with another 98th minute offside goal just to hear the bitch WHINE.
  24. I genuinely hope he comes back and proves me wrong next season, but his head is all over the place. I don't think he wants to be here.
