Agreed. Made brilliant runs but simply not played as a striker often enough to put them away in my opinion. Needs to start its like asking kalou to play on the wing for years and then pay him centre forward and expect him to finish like a striker simply doesn't work like that in the real world. Def want him to start up front for us though. Excuse any typos on iPad

Im in no way his biggest fan, not even a fan of him to be honest but lets not forget what Drogba was like when he came here, showed flashes of brilliance at Marseille and when he came here but it took a long time for him to turn into the hero and have a great first touch etc.

I can only imagine what that would have done for his confidence had he smashed that ball in the back of the net.

Agreed.

Sorry but I'd take him over Torres right now.

Wouldn't mind him back here tbh, good finisher, still has pace, good first touch/link-up play if our board want to do something on the cheap.

Get Anelka back in, play him as a striker, done.

Bascailly now the FA will take the police enquiry into consideration, which they didn't do for Terry (he was cleared), and go with the two assistants "I heard nothing, i swear" "Well is it recorded?" "no.."

Ballack back in for 6 months I say!! xD

I actually think he'd do well there tbh, it'd be a mistake for us to send him there. At least he'd take some shots there and try hard there/be under specific instructions not to come deep as its Suarez's job whereas RDM or the staff are too scared to tell him anything here, CLEARLY. Atletico or bust for him if it was my decision.

I don't think that we need to bring in Moses, Marin AND studge - I think thats too much of a change for what people might be under estimating the task ahead.. West Brom are a solid team this season and led by a man with some tactical sense! I think Moses and Studge in then introduce Marin @ 50-60mins

Newspaper sites, the usuals chaps, dailymail etc. I'm not saying 2 weeks as in I spoke to the Chelsea Doctor or whatsapp'd JT..

Why is he a c...? He must be looking at Torres/RDM and thinking "Am I asleep? This cant be real, surely this is a joke, I'm going to play, surely... aren't I?"

2 weeks apparently

^^ Agreed, I'm finally there with wanting him out, sadly.

Papers reporting that its not bad at all this morning.

Some places reporting could miss rest of the season and some saying not serious at all

Not the first time this has happened

It's just worrying how we just let that game slip instead of really going for that 2-0+

Mikel was quality today but sadly, like the rest of our team, faded from 60min onward.

Were you watching the same game? He was terribly wasteful and dribbled into completely the wrong areas with little to no support gathering. Stick by my week about a week ago, needs to do more.

Today it was very evident that the players needed some guidance from the manager e.g. Suso change made Liverpool a much more potent thread as we just didn't change anything it reminds me of AVB reign where it would be a 'wait, we'll get our chances' and what if they never come like today? We were so comfortable and Liverpool were on the backfoot but we needed a change around 58 minute mark and I kept saying it to the people I watched the game with.. time went on, nothing.. and nothing.. ANNNDDD they score.

Most annoying thing? RDM constantly leaves it late to make subs!!

Thats a shame, not unexpected, goodluck.

Accept a one year deal, do the right thing, don't be money hungry, receive a new one year deal at the end of the season. Same to Cole.
