Yes, but why spend needlessly when we already have the option(s) at the club right now? Should be getting in the players for the position we need the most first before anythng else. And while the club may see something special in Schurrle, I'm also concerned of the fact the club is just buying young talents for the sake it, when we already have many at the club, and overloading them rather than actually having a proper thought on how to build a balance squad in terms of the numbers and of course the quality. We are getting latter but at the same time also creating problems in regards to the numbers. I get your point but what I said was De Bruyne can be used out wide, if needed. Otherwise, he would probably be played in the pivot. And besides, De Bruyne is much more equipped to play out wide than Oscar anyway.

The general definition and consensus for an assist is: It's only like in those Fantasy Football Manager games that count winning penalties AND free kicks which lead to a goal that counts as an assist as well. And the fact some others like bigger numbers because it looks good on the player they're praising. An assist should only be those final passes that led to a goal, be it through balls, crosses or free kick/corner kick deliveries.

Not sure why bother with Schurrle when De Bruyne can also play out wide if needed. We should be spending the money elsewhere on a more important priority like getting a creative midfielder and a striker!

No Bale, Lennon and Defoe for Spurs for the next few games. Shame that we're not playing them next weekend!

Congrats The Skipper.

IF Arsenal beat West Brom at the Hawthorns later, they will climb above us into 4th..for 24 hours at least. Need Agent Clarke to do his job!

Funny thing is his mum told Cole to grow up and yet her Twitter name is 'biebermum'...

LOL! Didn't mean to imply such things and you assumed I did.

At least someone understands what I said, unlike a certain fella..

Raphael, I know that ok. Am just saying the idea of covering the whole body with paint etc concept isn't Lampard's thing, OK?!

Sort of. Lampard isn't exactly one that likes to be or looks like a poster boy, is he??

Don't think this whole concept of covering with paint and all really suits Lampard. Not exactly his thing you know. Let's see when they reveal the kit photo shoot.

Petr Cech: I'm a better goalkeeper now, five years ago I wouldn't have been able to make Javier Hernandez save An interview with Cech in the Telegraph.

Those pictures are just creepy! EEEEEKKKK!!!

Adidas tweeted in their account(adidasUK) that the full kit will be revealed in the next few weeks.

We have an uruk-hai...

This is so obviously a scam. They designed an ugly kit and want us to pay 1st before seeing it..

This is rather interesting(especially the 1st one).... http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2013/apr/05/chelsea-sunderland-squad-sheets

You're obviously suffering from a short term memory loss. In all competitions: 6-1 win vs Nordsjaelland 3-1 win vs Sunderland 3-1 win vs Monterrey 5-1 win vs Leeds 8-0 win vs Villa 1-0 win vs Norwich 2-1 win vs Everton 4-1 win vs Wigan 1-0 win vs Sparta Prague 4-0 win vs Brentford In the league: 3-1 win vs Sunderland 8-0 win vs Villa 1-0 win vs Norwich 2-1 win vs Everton

Yeah...I'm sure if there is one on Torres, most of the performance scores would be 0 or in the negatives! And really, such numbers and figures are pointless. The context and factors on why the scores were high and/or low weren't even explained!

Not sure about this transfer, even if De Bruyne only goes there on loan. Schurrle is not exactly what we need right now in terms of another wide player. Right now, it just feels we are buying young talents for the sake of it without having a proper thought in building a balance(and quality) squad. If this transfer goes through, it would show another case of us not addressing the main problem with the squad and just indulging ourselves with buying a not top priority player!

Barca lodge complaint with UEFA Oh the irony! Barcelona should have sent a complain letter to UEFA on what happened in April 2009...oh wait!!

HA! He threatened to leave City a few weeks ago because the contract talk stalled. Now, he has signed a new contract and said "This is where I want to be"... Classic. http://espnfc.com/news/story/_/id/1398830/yaya-toure-signs-new-city-deal?cc=4716
