If the world ends in 2012, at least we can say we were the last team in Europe

Who'd have thought it... Ramires winning Goal of the Season two years in succession!

I agree. He has three objectives: Get 4th spot Win the FA Cup Win the UCL Achieve two of those objectives and he should be given the job. Win just the UCL and he technically gets us 4th spot anyway, so he should be given the job there and then.

Yeah, they'll probably deem it a 'frivolous appeal', kick Chelsea out of the competition, scrap the final and hand Munich the trophy on default.

Where's Alexis Sanchez when you need him? He can play for us, fall down in front of every QPR player and then they'd get two red cards (one of which laughable), get a dodgy penalty for a supposed push, then get two stonewallers turned down and lose the match 1-0 despite being dominating your opponents with just nine men...

Certainly, we are also having our TalkChelsea Shield competition return, which is a knock-out cup competition.

People are very unfair on Guardiola, saying he has actually underachieved with the squad he has, and that with those players you don't need a lot of management quality. Untrue, the best teams are the hardest to manage just because of one very simple factor - the pressure.

I have a radical idea: For the 2011/12 UCL Final, we'll wear our 2011/12 first strip. Bonkers, ain't I?

Yes, both featured in at least one game (Bayer Leverkusen at the Bridge) and thus are eligible.

Obviously the goalkeepers. Then Cole, Essien, Oriol, Mikel, Lukaku, Ferreira, McEachran and Bertrand.

Meireles against Benfica, talk about unstoppable!

We've never beaten a Liverpool side managed by Dalglish in 12 attempts...

In your head it isn't because you're frustrated as fuck

Agreed, as staff we're always on the case when it comes to this sort of thing. Its my pet hate.

All up to Sh0n, really.

Both articles are submitted!

Drogba is easily the most skilful player we have, IMO. But that's another argument. Coley is starting to look old now.

^ would certainly be happy with that haha!

I think because I'm still so pissed at what he did and emotions are still running high, I'm not 100% sure what I think about this. Of course its great for him to have the shot at redemption after Moscow, but then again if we lose, guess who's being blamed? Furthermore, part of me doesn't want him to lift it, but for Lampard and Drogba, who were our two Generals in the Nou Camp.

I used to utterly hate Fabregas. They say 'out of sight, out of mind', but after seeing him play for Barca it reminded me how much of a cunt he is. Hope he floods his house out by crying over the fact that Barcelona remain our bitches.

I want Bilbao to win because they are the team I have started looking out for in Spain, but I'd love Madrid to win it because of Courtois... Either way it will be interesting to see one of my favourite attacking sides going up against our future goalkeeping genius.

So does Andre Villas-Boas, what's your point?

And he got booked for that, Meireles got booked because Mascherano dived, Cech got booked because of the crowd. UEFA still fucked us over.

AVB deserves one if we win it, he helped us through to the knockouts. I have to say some people on here keep talking like we've won the fucking thing.
