he's still technically good. but his age has hampered his speed and movement

Watch Frank Lampard's interview after the CL final. We don't have the flair or the pace to play dominating attacking football. what we do have is sheer bloodymindedness that few other clubs possess. u couldn't possibly imagine arsenal or spuds coming back from a goal down with such little time left agree that we have to build on our defense and become a better attacking threat next season. i would love to see this team for next season Cech Ivanovic Cahill Terry Cole Ramires Lampard Hulk Mata Hazard Torres subs: Turnbull Luiz Bertrand Meireles KDB, Marin Sturridge reserves: Piazon Fereira Romeu Lukaku

kdb and marin will replace kalouda. don't think we need benayoun then although he has done okay at arsenal

I wonder how Capriccioso is feeling

dont like some of the sarcasm on here. he did well for the first few years and even this season, he kept his concentration up in the big games. maybe not a great signing but seriously, apart from the trophy hogging, i think he should be given the respect of a proper goodbye

brilliant ( i imagined the whole articled read in your accent)

the official cfc fb page cover looks fuckin beaut

bloody brilliant, jai!

Beautiful Alex, just beautiful. Really sums up his 8 years at Chelsea

i think these were his best moments for the sheer significance of it

Absolutely. 2-2, with time running out, only he could swivel and smash it like that

the best thing about didier drogba - big-game player. I can't think of many others who consistently turn up in the big games and that i feel, is a hall-mark for greatness

yeah. opposition fans said that it was fluke but i dont know why would he try that without meaning it?

but the source seems to be a highly reliable one. not sure but apparently its from a drogba diary in a french thingy

the accents will make this show even greater

it's over. didier reportedly told his teammates that he's leaving A true game changer if i ever saw one. He will be missed,

Napoli beat them yesterday. i am not too worried

maybe. not a very reliable source, mind u

i was sitting like mourinho did in the semis until the luiz penalty before a friend pointed out that sitting like that is bad luck. he turned out to be right lol!

likewise, my friend. likewise. a brilliant finale to an unforgettable season.

whatever it may be, he really shouldn't have said anything about the matter. just converse with the club privately

my apologies. i'll wait for a mod to hack this down

http://soccernet.esp...ea-exit?cc=4716 Bombshell - apparently he got pissed he wasn't starting the final and wasn't allowed to take a pen edit:Mods - lock this if it's not in the right section or if it turns out to be codswallop
