Fuck, is he really another winger turned attacking midfielder? Are all good wingers going to become attacking mids now? Soon wingers will be the new full-backs - low in quality numbers but high in demand. The same shit is with de Bruyne, apparently he's better in the middle rather than on the left, his original position. Anyway, we could play a dynamic 3 in the 4-2-3-1, with the wingers and the trequartista given free roles to drift into each other's positions.. that should keep everybody happy and the opposition's pants wet.

I don't remember the last time when somebody got compensated for less work.

Lampard was immense that night. Noticed how he ran everywhere to help defensively, side to side, end to end. I especially remember when Bosingwa was pinning Contento(?), then all of a sudden out of nowhere Lampard runs into the frame 100 km/h and Contento falls over anticipating a tackle. That summed up his performance and contribution, doing a large chunk of dirty work for the team. It's astonishing that a player, who is mostly known for his attacking and goal scoring ability, is such a presence in defence as well. Mostly players are unipolar, being good at either one or the other, but rarely at both like our super Frank.

This can't be true. Lampard I understand, but Essien and Slo-Mo? That's not right

Drogba is a genius. He explained that before his penalty he made a shorter run than usual so that Neuer wouldn't have time to figure out which way he would shoot it, and it worked. I really didn't think of that, I thought he made the short run just to end it quickly. He also said that Cech won the game for them and that he was the real man of the match... top man.

Is he another 800k pounds per week player at city?

Here's a little about Roman's bird. Dasha Zhukova Her father is Alexander Radkin Zhukov, a prominent Russian businessman, oil-magnate and illegal arms dealer. Her mother is Elena Zhukova, a Russian scientist, and now retired UCLA professor of molecular biology. So a daughter of an oligarch ends up dating another oligarch and having his children. Elitist life in Russia.

If Chelsea were a movie, who would be the actors?
manpe replied to manpe's topic in Matthew Harding Stand
haha I guess Spacey would play the old Terry, perhaps him telling his children about the old glory days of him and his teammates and then Jude Law plays the not so old Terry. -
I edited my post heavily in meanwhile. I agree and don't agree that he is the greatest.. I just refuse to rank them in order, as it would disrespect the lower placed players, but in truth I don't feel any of them were less important than the other and I feel affection for all of them. They always complimented each other and said they couldn't have done it without them, so it's only natural to carve the whole group as "the best" ever. Also Dids and Lamps perfected one another so well, they truly were the perfect partnership. If I'm going to name Drogba as the greatest, then I will take Lampsy up with him. In words of Term X, he is a phenomenon and so is Lampard. About JT. He's an exceptional player 'cause he's the only one who is from youth academy. He's Chelsea since little boy. Him and Lampard were in the club when we weren't exactly in the bestest of positions. Drogba would never have come here if it wasn't for Roman's money and Mourinho, at first he was even disgusted for joining us. In that sense, Lampard's and Terry's roots extend longer and deeper. JT and Cech also almost literally died for the team, had it happened we'd be singing a different song. But in terms of gaming impact, Drogba is right up there with them and generally he's a big human being with his philanthropy.

I agree with those comments in that article: "This is a stupid poll; put this poll up after Lampards left, Lampard will probably get most of the votes. Put it up after JT leaves, he'll get most the votes probably. People are more likely to vote Drogba because he's only just left, and he's left with the parting gift of the UCL, and so people hold him in a higher regard than those still here like Lamps and JT" "typical hyperbolic exaggerations of a player after they retire/leave the english league. Drogba was/is a class act, but he's no zola" Also, this poll unfairly disregards JT. I won't be calling Drogba the best ever just yet, I know I would make that knee-jerk sentimental decision based on his recent heroics and departure. Not too long ago I called Lampard the greatest ever and I don't think I'm ready to kick him off the throne just yet (in hindsight I regret questioning his legendary status after the AVB debacle)... when he retires, the outcry would be just as strong as is with Drogba now, if not stronger. The same with JT, although he's doing a great job in sabotaging his image. Anyway, it would also be a bit disrespectful to rank players in order. For me, our legends should be treated equally.. that include Drogba, Lampard, Terry and Cech... all every bit as important and will be missed as much as Drogba will, all of them worthy to be "the best ever", thus there's no point in choosing one and disrespecting others.

Just like after the last Lille game? When are those matches?

Yes sponsors, pressure him! Would be oh so sweet to steal him right from under united's nose

Drogba: "Torres is the future"
-
There is no hiding now, we simply must change our playing style with Drogba gone. The following season might have perhaps been the time to appoint AVB, not the last one.

For a while number 11 shouldn't be given to anyone, it wouldn't feel right. But it shouldn't be retired, once all the fuss cools down and we get used to it, it can be assigned again.

One day he will return as a coach, mark my words.
