  1. Let's not forget we played with a diamond midfield for much of the 06/07 season - which also happened to be Frank's highest-scoring season.
  2. I'm quite certain he won't leave Atletico, its quite clear they don't want to sell.
  3. Fuck off, Carvalho shits on this poncey-haired bastard.
  4. Fucking brilliant, need more chappies like this in the game.
  5. I agree with you there, DV, but the way Riccy has played the last two games, we have to keep him in the side, as good as Alex is.
  6. Wow, I never knew that. Imagine Essien wearing a Burnley shirt, and not a Chelsea one. I mean, its hard to, because he is a Chelsea legend... but just imagine Chelsea without Essien... its pretty difficult.
  7. I've moved your topic, Raymond, so other people can comment on it. Yes, the players do move around; often in fact. The 4-1-2-1-2 is a bit of a concrete system and doesn't allow much movement between the players, but you will often see the Lampards, Ballacks and Essiens of this world moving around and sometimes changing positions. A great example of players moving around between different positions is Michael Essien, who has played centre back, right back, defensive midfield, attacking midfield, right midfield and left midfield during his time at Stamford Bridge. During the 4-3-3 formation used in the past, our forward three of Anelka, Malouda and Drogba last season often changed positions. An example is the Fulham game at home we won 3-1 - all three of these players scored. Drogba moved out to the wing whilst Anelka came central, and at times, they'd change to have Malouda come inside from the wing and play behind two out and out strikers. You often see wingers changing flanks and midfielders sometimes can change their position - its very rare to see other players do so, however, unless instructed by the coach. But regarding the goalscoring question; any player on the pitch is allowed to score a goal, but it is very uncommon for goalkeepers to do so. These goals by keepers tend to be long-range (such as Paul Robinson's versus Watford) or in the dying seconds of a game when a team is losing and the keeper comes up to attack a corner or freekick.
  8. We can get him for a cut price, if he plays in the CL.
  9. I think this is going to be a very difficult game; its their first home match so they'll be fired up. I'm hoping for a win, I'll take 3 points and any scoreline. I have a feeling we'll win this 2-0 but we're going to have to work very hard. Mikel needs to have a big game.
  10. Youtube allow embedding, because if you click on any embedded video it redirects to their site.
  11. Lampard shouldn't play at the top of the diamond, it simply just doesn't suit him.
  12. It's in effect now. And Raymond; regarding pictures, I'm not sure, but we tend not to post images from sites such as IP or Getty as they get a bit pissed about it.
  13. I'll never forgive the club if they allow Bosingwa to go. We wait for YEARS to find a perfect right full back, we get one and then want to sell him? Forget it.
  14. Navas is reluctant to go and play at away matches for Sevilla as well, I think.
  15. Wow, that's strange. I'm using the latest version as well. I'm not really sure why that's happening - does it stick like that or does it revert to normal after a second or two?
  16. I hope he isn't another Robben in regards to injury.
