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.

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...

Amazing how we desperately need a goal, its always a midfielder that has to come to the rescue instead of our fucking forwards.

And what am i actually trying to say?

Was absent along with the rest of the squad..

My god that was Painful to watch

Ramires just no, just no

Oscar on for 40 seconds did more work than all of our players for 80 minutes

The worst Signing in football history
