capriccioso

Damn, I really wish I had a job Is the CL star going to be a part of our badge forever now?

Shouldn't take penalties unless we're 3-0 up. Poor lad just doesn't have the nerve. Apart from that, there is very little to fault him. Brilliant player. Thank you for your career so far, Juan

He's the perfect 'Aryan' (never mind that German's and European's in general are about as close to Aryan as my cat). He is also a massive cunt. Mocked Sergio Ramos after that penalty, good to see Sergio get his own back: Nice, Sergio

I was delighted when I saw that. Then I scrolled down

Not for a few years, he won't be.

I am confuse. Is he really off? Gourlay was talking about contract talks opening up..

Cap the missionary I have converted you all with one article

What the fuck?! Noooooo! http://www.iol.co.za/sport/soccer/premier-league/drogba-leaving-chelsea-for-china-1.1301030?showComments=true

Messi and Ronaldo are not irreplaceable. Barcelona/Real Madrid could bring in Hazard or Gotze and not miss a trick (aside from probably 20 fewer goals a season, which means they'll have to settle for fewer 5-0 wins and more 3-0 wins). There will never be another Didier Drogba for Chelsea FC or the world, though. The man deserves more than a statue, he deserves a monument, an epic poem even.

If he can win the European Super Cup and the CWC with us he'll have won everything available to him. Quite astonishing, what a career he's had. Along with Drogba, probably the only footballer in the world who is absolutely irreplaceable.

No I'm not... I was recognising that I made a mistake in that I judged Torres too early without knowing the whole story.

To be fair, this isn't the first time he has managed to play massively below expectations.

Why does Arsenal have a teddy bear? Is it a reference to the perceived youth of that squad vs. the more mature United and Spurs (hence them having a drink)?

The Kalouda duo are still of some importance, they offer versatility and defensive responsibility. We can't let both leave at the same time, that would be a mistake comparable (although smaller scale) to letting Ballack, Cole, Belletti and Carvalho go. Better to let Flo Mo leave as we can still get decent money for him.

I direct you to the post directly above yours. Oops

And that is why I averaged a shade above 16.6666% in my final year of school at maths

Well said, we should be savouring the moment not nitpicking on what someone said or didn't say. Sorry, I just read the full translated interview. If you read these forums (unlikely ), you have my apologies Mr. Torres.

30%. I'd say 50% for City and 30% for United as well.

True, but I would imagine Platini would do all in his power to make it as tough for them as he made it for us by sanctioning idiots like Ovrebo to ref matches.

Pfft.. none of you thought he was overrated before the match, no, he was going to score a hattrick on account of our poor defenders Really, he's just a shit Inzaghi. Perhaps more prolific than the great Pippo but he'll rarely score when you need him to. 25 goals past former East German mining outposts makes him a world class player?

No one in the world has the right to say, I'll leave the club if Drogba doesn't. I don't care what they've achieved outside Chelsea, this guy is up there with Osgood as the greatest to ever pull on a blue shirt.

Problem with Pep is that he would be awful in his first few seasons. We've got to get to an Arsenal-like stage in terms of our footballing philosophy to consider appointing him. Can you really imagine the likes of Meireles and Ramires being short passing, possession oriented players? Or John Terry as a Pique like figure from the back, sublime in technique and lacking in physique. Also, that 3-3-4/3-4-3 shit that he plays wouldn't work outside Spain/without Messi.

To quote the Ivory Coast flag Drogba had: WHO NEEDS MESSI, WHEN WE'VE GOT KALOU WHO NEEDS MESSI, WHEN WE'VE GOT KALOU (should sound like the nursery rhyme, 10 green bottles)

Haha

Didn't you see the little on the bottom right corner?
