Not just to maintain the balance though, it's also about the defensive side of things. If any of the wide player on the right flank can provide solidity and do their fair share of defensive work every time, then I'm sure RDM will play him rather than Ramires there. But we don't quite have that at the moment.

It's on Page 25 of the Fellaini thread and post No.445, if you haven't found it yet.

Found it somewhat annoying to hear him calling Mourinho as 'Daddy' this, 'Daddy' that.

Make sure you are really prepare to lose your house, in case.

Hope RDM doesn't risk them if they are not 100%. Have capable players to replace them if we need to. The Juventus game next week is also a crucial one too.

Meireles returned to Cobham today to say goodbye to his former teammates following his move to Fenerbahce. He thanked the fans for the support he received and also said, he enjoyed playing for the club.

Don't think anyone is really saying Azpilicueta is the better RB than Ivanovic right now. What we're saying is that Ivanovic probably needs to be dropped or rested, if you like, because his form has been dire as of late. Can't just keep on playing him if he continues to put in poor performances. Will just leave us exposed at RB.

Came in to see what the fuss is all with Mikel again but ended up seeing White Sox, Tigers and Claude Slothelele...

IF that award had existed in England, Torres would have won it at least once...

Agree! It's just bloody ridiculous that they are taking ages to solve the issue!!

Sounds good. Now, he just needs to do the same again for the club!!

Anyone here watched Serbia v Wales last night? How did Ivanovic fare? He scored 1 and assisted 1 of the goals too.

Dear oh dear Scotland...

Lampard has scored 5 goals and got 1 assist in the 7 games(out of 8) he has played for Chelsea and England this season.

Jagielka replaces Terry for England tonight. Means he will partner his former teammate Lescott against Ukraine. Gutted for Cahill.

No Torres for Spain tonight against Georgia. On the bench. Soldado starts in place of him. Good news that. Will get some decent rest before Saturday's game.

Was there ever any doubt?

1. Deary me. So so easy for Brazil. Hardly any pressure from China and they basically just stood of them. Their defending was non-existent! Most probably the easiest win for Mano Menezes. 2. What a horrendous miss that was by Oscar. Did a Kalou there. Good game overall though I guess. Scored 1 and assisted 3 other goals. 3. WTF is that funny tune played in the background after Brazil scored?!

We always seem to have a tendency to shoot ourselves in the foot by making comments like that.

IF we get Falcao because of the financial problems Atletico Madrid are facing with UEFA, then we should go thank Pinto da Costa for that.
