capriccioso

He wouldn't have improved us by enough to justify 40 million. 40 million pounds. Just think about what a huge sum that is for a centre midfielder not known for penetration.

Hate(Cap)erz gonna hate.

There will be 'scenes' in France. I think he'll be fantastic over there. Not that he wasn't here

Wenger is a genius. Very few managers in the world can consistently get their team there or thereabouts at the top while losing their best players without fail every season. Vieira, Bergkamp, Cole, Henry, Fabregas, Nasri (lol) all left and he recovered from their losses every time. Arsenal will still be an enormous threat.

I dislike him because he's shit and gets unfair plaudits for doing things you would expect any striker to do. I put away that dislike when he plays, because as a Chelsea player he deserves our support no matter how shit he is. It's a shame that for many that attitude didn't go across from Torres to Anelkalouda/Bosingwa/Mikel.

Nah. It doesn't look that great. I think SBS (lol) looks great on kits. Here is an old kit I made for Man United for FM:

Not quite. It comes from this Chelsea 'fan' I know who used to racially abuse Drogba whenever he scuffed a chance and always called for Torres to play. He would then proceed to suck Torres' nuts.

Put me on that list as well. 12 goals in all 7 competitions available to him, at best, is my prediction.

Hi Or should I say Gruss Gott?

If we win all 7, we can claim we're better than Barcelona 2008/09, as they only won 6 We'll just brush under the carpet that both of us had 100% success rates.

It's a prestige thing. If we win the CWC we can actually say we are World Champions. Winning a trophy midseason is a nice little morale booster for the players. There's also a lot of prize money involved and the trophy itself is magnificent. That and the fact that it's something that even the best team of it's generation can only win 3-4 times a decade makes it a top priority for me.

Top 4 finish, and 3 trophies (Community Shield, European Super Cup, Club World Cup) would be great. Even better if we win a quintuple of cups (throw in the Carling and FA Cups to those three). A decent showing in Europe, where we defend our title as well as we can, say quarter finals or semi finals in addition to 3-5 trophies would be excellent. It's surreal to think we're in contention for 7 trophies next season.

I expect a rep for this: Press ctrl+shift+delete Choose whatever you like for "Time range to clear" Tick only 'cache' Then press clear now, wait for it to finish, close firefox and re open it. Your avatar will now be working. REP PLEASE.

On here? Try clearing your cache. I just did that and I can see it's now Essien in a Ghana shirt.

If it makes you feel better you can change your name any time you like on OTC..

You can't change your name. I, on behalf of the admins, forbid it!

More on why the 4-4-2 is antiquated and headed for a long spell out of favour, from the horses head himself:

There will be tears when he tears up Ligue 1 with his unique brand of timely goals.

Am I an icon?

Pre-empted it.

Yes.. the blue of Shanghai Shenua!

You'll always be Sempiternal (Adjective: Eternal and unchanging; everlasting.) Salomon to me Lille are in the CL this season, right?

I still think my 4000th post, "Alright, lads." far outstrips that.

Who's the fatty? I love our away kit this season.

If we get Martins
