Santiago.

Nonsense

Bar none, if he wasn't good looking, he wouldn't be the center image of Spanish and World football. Fact

That's not even fucking funny, rather disgusting and the fact he is a world cup winner

That's the mere thing. In order for this club to move forward and to take that monkey off our shoulder, Benitez and Torres need to leave as well as our board.

Hernandez, Rooney, Welbeck, RVP, Lewandowski Yup, that is possible.

You forgot to add his Torres esq miss too Still, Him, Ba, and Lukaku next season would be quality

Where did I say those players listed are in their prime? I believe it was stated underneath the list that they are proven world class players who delivered on the grandest of stages. Or did you miss that part due to pure ignorance in failing to see a point? And it was a list I conjured up in a mere 10 seconds which only provides a reference towards my argument. Lahm and Bastian have performed at the top level both internationally and at club level for a decade. They've got the experience, mentality, and talent that is easily misguided or viewed by others due to sheer irrational thought. Lahm is the most complete versatile RB in the game and has been a threat going forward and a leader in the defense and has shown it for years. Sweinstieger is on par with Yaya Toure as the most complete box to box midfielder in the world. Not to mention if it wasn't for the Spanish Dominance in recent years, guaranteed they would be picked for Team of the year several years running. The Premier League has reached new heights in the terms overrated and over hyped. The likes of Cazorla, Mata, Silva, Michu, Aguero, as soon as they hit the Premier League and play for clubs who either have a high prestige or have a stable base with the media, they are all of a sudden world class which has been said countless of times. If that's the case, I can name about 25 world class players who don't play on Barca and Real in La Liga let alone other leagues. That is why over the years the term World Class has been spreading everywhere rather than being labeled on players who truly deserve that title. Mata, for me, not yet world class. From my time of watching him, his best performances were still to this day at Valencia and once his talent fully emerges and the quality he had returns to make him fully blossom, only then can he actually be considered. His consistency, mentality, and to deliver on the grandest and biggest occasions, will also come with his progression. Now were you able to comprehend that? Or did my statements yet again 'make zero since' and/or shows "i don't know what i'm talking about" .Now I find it highly ironic considering that cringeworthy and laughable prediction you have posted in your signature.

Drogba in red is disgusting

I never stated he was world class now did I? He became a big name player at around last year because of what club he was on and what league he is currently at when his best performances were at Valencia. I simple implied that he does not fall into that category of World Class yet considering he was performing better at Valencia than he is now. Any player that steps into the Premier League, they are all of a sudden world class. Silva, Cazorla, Mata, Michu. La Liga are filled with players of that quality which just truly emphasizes in how overrated and hyped the Premier League is.

And WHY can't we call up Blackman? Ross Turnbull, another joke to win the European Cup

Have never been impressed by him nor Hazard at some moments, but it's their first season and it would be unwise to place judgement now

That goal was historic. Easily up there with the greatest players of all time imo

Can't even respond to that

That and the fact he liked our group of current players and system, paticularly Harris who always gave him a good round

Rooney ? Right now he lacks consistency, as I stated. The likes of Xavi/Iniesta/Yaya Toure, they provided a great amount of ability and strength in those areas through a consecutive period of time, especially from 2007-12 where as Mata has only been on the headlight in 2011-12 which is appaling as his best ability was easily was when he was at Valencia. Thiago Silva has proven domestically that he is a great CB, not during the CL nor International stages. That's like saying Baines is the best left back in the world but he hasn't played a sniff of European football. World Class is a tricky statement to fully deprive from and I apologize for even bringing it up as I don't want to be the cause of another thread derailed

As stated, completely opinionated in defining the term 'World Class' so no, it is not stupid, but subjective, as is your opinion. Now do i call yours stupid? If anything's stupid it's your premier league prediction I rank players in that category because of how they contribute to their abilities in the highest measures and given we haven't seen Mata at his absolute best, considering his absolute best was at VALENCIA if you actually heard of him before he came to Chelsea, i don't rank him there just yet but there is no doubt that he will.

Sidwell

If we don't win by more than 3....what ever, i'll take any victory

And because he lacks the actual attributes to be in that category Messi Ronaldo Iniesta Falcao Xavi P.Lahm Yaya Toure RVP Alonso Pirlo Casillas Buffon Sweinstieger They are world class, They are proven, delivered in the highest amount and grandest of stages, and provide a strong length of consistency. I do not put Mata in that category just yet.

It's always got to be us...we always have to deal with the biggest flops

Debatable in how you actually define World Class. Highest Performance on the European Stages/International Stages as well as a High Amount of Consistency. I don't rate players in that category until their prime and Mata surely, (Considering how he has performed with Valencia because i actually know what he can become) is not in his prime yet.

Think we are all missing the quite obvious one. George Best "I had a lot of offers but Chelsea were the only club I would of signed for"

He has a weak mentality, which in my opinion, is his biggest flaw. I absolutely hate this cunt with all my fucking heart

Still lacks the consistency to be 'World Class'

Not Dragonball Z? Still waiting for a response...
