Looks like it wasn't offside https://scontent-vie1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/55719293_2119297524805999_3458154495320522752_o.jpg?_nc_cat=106&_nc_ht=scontent-vie1-1.xx&oh=28de47cbc908666beed00fa219b8a85c&oe=5D06783B

They are ridiculously lucky this season. This win, the Everton one, all the penalties, own goals, Klopp-time goals(yeah this is a thing now).. They had like 5-6 wins this season which was as lucky as our one today.

On paper - these are the keywords. Anything can happen in the Premier League. Let's support Newcastle tomorrow, secret agent Rafa and Kenedy might surprise Arse. MU and Liverpool will have tough Champions League games in April, their energy/focus might be more divided than ours. I knoiw, I am also overly optimistic, I can't help it but I firmly believe we will beat either MU or Liverpool.

We'll see. Even if they lost it's gonna be two tough game for them - Napoli just beat AS Roma 4-1 in the Stadio Olimpico - hopefully they will drop some points prior to/after those matches. Also I am hopeful about Spurs, they'll face Man City 3 times in April.

Anyone remembers this guy? TARAABT FINALLY MAKES DEBUT Well it's taken him 1,378 days, but Adel Taraabt has finally made his Benfica debut four years after joining the club! The 29-year-old signed for the Portuguese club from QPR on June 12, 2015, but failed to make an appearance until coming on as a 71st-minute substitute in the 1-0 win over Tondela. And he certainly left his mark. The former Tottenham playmaker, who had a spell at Genoa last season, was lucky not to be sent off for a heavy challenge in injury time, perhaps taking out his frustrations after a barren four years. He has always been a moron but THAT 2010/11 season at Queens Park Rangers was pure magic.

Yeah, but they'll have two matches against Napoli while we face Slavia Praha.

Wait, don’t they? Higuain and Barks a quite acceptable, at least they’re trying hard.

Why wouldn't they? They probably regret spending 30M on Mina, Barca made the business of the year with him. I really hope won't get rid of him. Cahill is leaving and Luiz might be too, we need him. Not sure if he can be a long term solution but the very minimum he deserves is one more chance at the club, he was great until that knee injury.

He pretty much did. He's been excellent lately, improved a lot under Guardiola and still only 24. He can be one of the best CB's in the world for the next couple of years.

Well, we did buy 28-31 year old over-the-peak players in the past few years, so nothing surprises me anymore But I really hope this tendency stops. Torino has an option to sign Aina, true. No doubt they are willing to pay that 8 million Euros but they have to convince Ola to stay too. If he is homesick or anything else he is not obligated to sign for them. Would be nice to have him back.. Agree with Reece, looks like a banger at RB and CM, he is needed here, especially if the transfer ban hits this summer.

Havertz seem to be Bayern-bound. They will have a busy summer for sure. Already got Lucas and Pavard, they are nearing to Havertz and probably haven't given up on Hudson-Odoi yet. Also, it's official that Robben, Ribéry and Rafinha are leaving. Should have happened years ago, they overslept. You mentioned Jovic, that could happen, his agent is Pini Zahavi, Israeli friend of Abramovich, key man in some scandal Premier League signings.

His pre-match conference is in 30 minutes.

Looks like the only way to make him stay is giving him the LW position next season with Hazard leaving.

Yeah, in a heartbeat. He is cooler, more elegant, I firmly believe that him and De Ligt will be magic together in two years or so. I don't say Umtiti is shit, he is a good player, especially next to someone like Pique, but I always thought he is a bit overrated.

Good player but no wonder Barcelona is willing to get rid of him. Lenglet is better and they are on the verge to sign De Ligt, obviously a step forward. Would be a good signing to MU though, Umtiti is better than Lindelöf, Rojo, Bailly or Jones.

I have tickets to the final so I really hope I can support our girls. Should be fun anyway.

Well, it's his team, obviously personal relationships matter I was surprised with Viera, I forgot they play together, and Cesc is still only 31, it's crazy...

Cesc's dream team(mates) with 3 Chelsea blues: And Batshuayi's reaction, gotta love this guy

You look very confident about these things, I think it's a little early to give up on 17-18 year old kids, they can change so much - in both direction.

Yeah, it's hard to tell at this age. Kakuta looked like Messi at youth level, or even better, Josh McEachran was amazing for the senior team at the age of 17, and now.. I don't even know if he's still playing football. On the other side, what if we sell this Redan kid for 8 million and becomes the next big thing? Like Sancho and City.

He is just 20, he may improve a lot. Of course I’m insecure about him too, but I’m optimistic, hoping for the best His run and his goal against Chile was great, so was his 1v1 on Valencia, we can see he has the talent, let’s hope consistency will come with age.

Also, it's possible that we won't play in the Champions League next year. And what if we will? City, Pool, Barcelona or Juventus are years ahead us. We can close this gap with hard work and consistent building but not in a few months. So I don't think signing Sancho was an option for us.

Because it's real life, not Fifa. 30 more? So do you think the first club who is willing to pay 90 million pounds gets him? No matter if it's Juventus, City, Real or Blackburn Rovers? It's not a grocery store, we are talking about human beings with decisions. You have to agree with the player too. Sancho is like the most wanted player in Europe right now, not our category. We were never even rumoured to sign him just like De Ligt or De Jong.

He did. It's a 'team of the season, don't look for too much sense Pukki didn't play as a winger either.
