So the board failed once again. Embarrassing.

Even if we take out his penalty failure, he still had a horrible game imo. Nothing came out. Was worse than Hazard, dunno why people concentrate only on him when he has a subpar game.

That last ditch tackle he made in the box though followed by Firmino's derp... dope And I did notice him trying to create something out of nothing, but the problem was that we were too few and limited in attack. He had only Costa and Willian to combine with, who were not on the same wavelength with him. In the end they neutralized him pretty effectively because we simply can't handle intense pressure with composure.

What an embarrassing post, go shiver in shame you hateful . "I hate Cahill more than Suarez" lmao GTFO

Fabregas came on too late imo, our game really improved with him. We were in control and closer to winning it once we went 3-5-2 and could have pushed it had he come on ~10mins earlier, but meh, a draw is good enough.

What would be the point of that?

Journos aren't even trying anymore. All about the clicks!

Both Ake and Kenedy are for the left side, doesn't really count. Kenedy doesn't fill me with confidence either, he was never a full-back and I don't believe he will make it here.

So we are actually weakening this window rather than strengthening, great.

On 26th Feb every Chelsea fan will temporarily convert to Southampton fans (except for the few who wish Mourinho well). I really REALLY want Soton to win, they deserve it more than those overrated mugs at manchester. Besides EFL cup is a drop in a tea cup for MUTD, but for a club like Southampton it's huge.

Yeah, Leicester didn't put up much of a resistance. We are actually very shrewd in the market apart from one big fuck up (Torres) which was ages ago. After that we have been making tons of smart buys and smart sales (except for, you know, De Bruyne and a few others).

Didn't mention him because he was 3rd choice iirc.

Some clowns think they can milk €100m from us The Chinese and the bastards from Manchester have distorted the market so much. We are not blameless in this of course because we were the first in England who started this, but have we really reached a point in just a few years where people consider 100 million for a 30 year old reasonable? Just 5 years ago we bought Hazard for €37m, 2 years ago Costa for the same amount. Let that sink in. The reported €65m fee is inflated enough as it is, but I would take that because he'd improve us immensely and you cannot expect sustained success by not overspending a bit.

I don't see anything wrong with that, people are just so stuck in their consumerism. The only point to making different kits every year is to sell them to people who want the latest and greatest. I wouldn't mind having the same perfectly designed kit for several years.

How is he physically? Still at the top of his game or declining? Has he had any serious injuries lately? Vidal and Sanchez used to be a a dream of mine, still is, getting Vidal would make 50% of that come true.

What's wrong with punching a nazi? It's too easy, that's what's wrong. If you're going to cause pain to them, rip their balls off so they can't reproduce.

He is right about that - we do have a wonderful life without him. Always the victim, always the one being wronged. If he hadn't choked last season, we would be in Europe as this season proves we are more than good enough to finish top 4, not one place above relegation. And we will win the title to his dismay immediately after his choke season... love it.

Referring to the article above? He didn't use "we", he said "they".

Yeah but together with Torres also came Luiz And he is far from flop.

This season the current starting XI will do, we will win the league anyway. But for next season we need to be looking at upgrades to certain positions, this is a job for summer. Luckily this season we have Ake as cover for the left side, but he's still a wildcard because we don't know how good he actually is in that system. And for the right side we have Aina, Ivanovic and Azpi covering. This will have to do until the end of the season, which isn't far away anymore.

Agreed. At this point it is impossible to go pre-industrial because of various reasons, and nobody really wants to because it makes our lives much more comfortable and advanced. You touched the correct subject, not nearly enough funding and resources go to developing green energy technology. There is a clear lack of incentive and even prevention due to greed. Take those trillions from tax breaks and also cut down from unnecessary bs like military expenditures and suddenly you have enough money to develop green energy across the world instead of building nuclear warfare... But this is just a pipe dream, our eyes won't see the day of such utopia.

Excellent signing if true. Exactly what we need.

Drogs was very problematic at first. Many stories of him wanting out, then wanting to follow Jose, stalling with contracts and whatnot. And he did admit that he didn't like it here at first and wanted to leave, but stayed... the rest is history. Don't give up on Costa just yet.

@BoyBlue96 that was uncalled for, @OhForAGreavsie is an old-time supporter here blue through and through.

We've been so lucky with backup keepers.. Cudicini, Cech two seasons ago, Begovic, (Terry). Even Hilario, despite all his faults, put in some spectacular performances when he first came. Bego is definitely good enough to be starting for somebody, as were Cudi and Cech.
