  1. what will the Fan Trust Organisation exactly do? What is the purpose? Do you have a rough outline to go on?@robdog,
  2. Also can someone clarify the situation with Eva and the rest of the backroom staff?
  3. Not the right time to post. I agree with your point of view but after what happened today, you should expect some extreme reactions. utterly unexpected and a bit of a daft decision really. post this if fans still call for his head next week. right now, anything said against Roman is out of sheer frustration and nothing else
  4. Rafa Benitez, Avram Grant, Harry Redknapp , , where does that leave us in terms of candidates? Pep Guardiola
  5. ffs. when did i question you? when did i say you are a glory hunter? . don't know you don't care either. i am questioning your decision to defend Roman at this time
  6. regardless of who the manager was. focus on the bigger issue here. ranieri/mourinho signed the players using roman's MONEY and built the club. no point defending roman now of all times. we all know he is passionate and all that but reminding that now is just plain useless. why even bother giving the job to di matteo if he's going to press the trigger at the slightest twitch? can't argue with that. daft nonsense from roman and the board.
  7. Money and the Mourinho revolution made you a Chelsea fan. Not Roman. Anyone else with that much money and the obvious logical sense to cash in on Jose would do the same for us. I am not going to the extent that he should be slated but this is just too extreme. if rafa benitez or harry redknapp come in, fml
  8. Forget the ridiculous Disgrace this has become Salute a real Blue blood for transforming a group of rag-tag footballers and winning THE Champions League in the most amazing fashion to save the season and the club's immediate future. Thank You RDM, for winning us our 7th FA Cup and for revitalising the squad over the summer. Thank You for changing the way we play and taking us upward in the footballing hierarchy. Stamford Bridge will always remember you fondly
  9. Fuck You Roman! Fuck you! should Have let di matteo build us this season and secure a friggin 3rd place. Guardiola/ Mourinho can come in the summer. If Rafa Benitez becomes Chelsea manager, I will call for Roman's head!
  10. good thing i'm in india then. one thing good around here is that my place is green and technology is not as developed as the West. still have a good time hanging out with my friends
  11. probably. both played poor on saturday. couldn't handle Shane Long at all. i think Azpilicueta should continue at Right-Back and Ivanovic should play Central Defence till Terry returns
  12. i think its fair. Luiz has been worse recently. Cahill was excellent against ManU - LC, Swansea - alongside Iva and against Liverpool - alongside Iva again. Not blaming Luiz but you see, Luiz's mistakes are directly costing the club points. Plus, the worst thing is they are completely Avoidable. can't excuse Luiz now. i always thought he would transform into a solid defender in the future but 2 years on from signing, i don't think that will ever happen. Luiz makes mistakes even when he has a good game. against Newcastle earlier in the season, he blindly tried to play his way out of trouble and was robbed off possession. Had Papiss Cisse scored, fans would have said Luiz was poor etc. He didnt score and it became a minor blotch in an otherwise good game. All these errors are simply that much more frustrating than Cahill. Plus, Luiz is First Choice defender (a pathetic one at that) and Cahill is a squad rotation player who's exceeding expectations
  13. Cahill was poor. Not particularly solid and uncomfortable with Luiz. total defensive breakdown at times. Long and Morrison were incisive in their link-up. David Luiz was also poor. But that's what i expect out of him now. Any decent centre forward can turn him inside out and his lapses of concentration is costing the club points. no point defending his ability if he keeps making mistakes EVERY single game
  14. terry-Luiz hasn't been tested enough to say that they are "solid" and cahill-luiz is just codswallop. we need to have a stable partnership at the back. i believe the chopping and changing has also affected the defence. it's not just luiz. luiz has made basic errors but none of the partnerships in defence is actually good. we need a good defender and soon.
  15. without luiz, the back Four has defended as unit. we barely let in a shot on target until Suarez corner goal and the 2 cb's were excellent handling the pace of the Swansea attackers. rather unfortunate that they have no clean-sheets to show for the 2 performances nonetheless , the defensive work has been great these last two games
  16. The thing with luiz, he has better potential than all our other defenders but at the same time he should be solid whenever he plays. yes, he wins the ball back and all that but his ratio of winning the ball back to making a rash challenge is still high. everyone thought that by now, he would have settled and transformed into a solid Ball-Winning centre-back but sadly the basic errors still undo all the work he puts in
  17. nah. Wigan, Stoke, QPR are hardly a challenge. Luiz-Terry did not play against Newcastle, our first tough game and made errors against Arsenal - dropped way too deep for the Gervinho goal. Swansea away and Liverpool home are far tougher and Ivan-Cahill and Terry-Iva, Cahill-Ivan were very solid. we defended as a unit
  18. Notice how the defence in the last two games has been markedly better with no Luiz there. Luiz should sit out a couple of games and should know that his place in the team is not a given. As for the amigos, I'd bring in Moses for one of the amigos. that's all. maybe use Marin late on for Hazard and keep people fresh for the Juve trip
  19. would play Mata instead of Hazard. the team is a headless chicken without Mata. He missed 2 games and we couldn't break down the opposition both times - QPR and Swansea (Moses set-piece header not withstanding). he drives the midfield forward
  20. twitter. some fans saying he played on injured because all the subs were used
  21. Gareth McAuley for Northern Ireland picked up a knock. defence unsettled
  22. Options we need to explore 1. Edinson Cavani - Beast 2. Radamel Falcao - Beast 2.0 3. Robert Lewandowski 4. Edin Dzeko 5. David Villa (?) - short term loan
  23. The goal ratio is rather worrying. Our midfield and defence scores a lot of goals but the responsibility of goal-scoring should be handled by the striker. In games where we don't create lot of chances, that's where Torres should score. Torres' goals this season have come from set-pieces, offside tap-ins etc. maybe the goal against Newcastle was the only goal where he genuinely converted a half-chance whereas van Persie, Tevez, Ba etc are converting half-chances for their teams with ease. that usually makes all the difference in the league. I am still waiting to see Torres take charge and bully the opposition defence in a Big game
  24. a 1-off affair like the Super Cup. possible to host in Monaco but the stadium is only 18k in capacity and i have weird memories of a long-haired Colombian raping our defence there but surely there are few other possible venues. it will globalise the game if the venue keeps moving and gives people of different countries a chance to watch the world's best. South Africa - good facilities, Brazil, Australia, USA are possible venues.
  25. true but no sense in playing CWC in just 1 location every year. i think the game can be globalised if the venue keeps shifting. maybe Tokyo-Sydney-Sao Paolo-Paris
