Admiring that save probably.

Maybe Oriol needs to shave his head again and his quality will reemerge?

I'm not sure that's the case. Like Ramires, his entire game is based on his energy and dynamism. Its now (understandably) very hard for him to replicate that. Essien has always been a fighter, but his will seems to have been sapped.

Good point, but by extension, I'd say the whole squad should have given more respect to Villas-Boas. As for the second part of your post, I am amongst those that have been hoping he would have honed his game because of his limited game time. In fact, he has purely become even more selfish.

Nevermind successors, we need a second choice and we need one now, as a stop-gap until TC is ready to step up to the plate. Someone with experience and quality. Jussi Jaaskelainen is out of contract in the summer, he'd be a perfect back-up.

Cracking shout there. Also Jussi Jaaskelainen is out of contract at Bolton. Perfect signing as a number 2 in my opinion.

I appreciate that Ron, but his attitude has been terrible. No respect whatsoever. You know I would never go as far as some people and make wild accusations, and whilst I praise his professionalism, he has shown a blatant disregard towards Chelsea Football Club; purely out of spite. I have no love for the player at all.

I am beginning to dislike him myself, he is becoming a thug like Ben Thatcher - he doesn't need to, he is a classy defender.

The club are SUPPOSEDLY in talks with Didier Drogba over a new deal.

Was about to say 'great post' then I realised it was me who typed it. Nonetheless, great post, sir!

Should have been sent off for that. He's always had that in his game.

No, but he'll be playing LW and Mata in the centre. Imagine a season of Mata threading through-balls to... Kalou.

We should have known we were getting into trouble when we signed Middlesbrough's number 2.

Fuck you Yossi.

That's exactly what I've been saying. Gives a chance to blood the youngsters in the group stages before the shit gets real in the knock-outs. And we'd probably win a European Cup this way

FFS, bastard hackers. Suck my cock you fucking cunt!

Cech © Bosingwa - Hutchinson - Ivanovic - Bertrand Romeu - Ramires Piazon Sturridge - Lukaku - Kalou With all the old bastards on the bench.

If we win the Champions League as well as the FA Cup, you can only say it has been a great season. Win just the FA Cup then it has - just - fallen short of expectations. I wanted a top 4 finish and one of the cups. I got one half of the bargain last weekend, so I am moreorless satisfied.

Going to buy a Munich one... if we win it. Otherwise it would be an awful memento.

Why is Branna becoming such a thug? He didn't used to elbow or punch people, its just mindless.

Granted, yet it also ensures us Mods know that people aren't just creating accounts and voting for themselves. Believe me, its happened before.

You joined a month or so after last year's awards

Get back on topic you dirty embarrassments.

Looks entirely usable!
