  1. Corinthians have a very loud crowd I see (when they score).
  2. Make no mistake guys, Corinthians are a really good side. It's a shame to see them being underestimated just like Juventus and Shakhtar were by many on here. Personally I'd actually say they're favourites to win the CWC ahead of us.
  3. Doesn't he currently play as a defensive midfielder... but if he came here most likely play as an anchorman? I don't see this move making sense if we're sticking with a 4-2-3-1 (which we are). If we were still playing a 4-3-3, a midfield trio of Busquets, Oscar (in a more restricted role) and Ramires would make some sense.
  4. Why would you take such an awful penalty
  5. He made the joint most tackles (4) tonight in his team's 2-0 loss to Lille. 82% pass accuracy 84(!!!) touches
  6. Good to see Villa beat Norwich City. Villa have been a bogey team in recent seasons for us, but they're just soooo weak this season. Norwich City on the other-hand look to be becoming a bogey team for us and our players are just crap at marking Holt.
  7. I just absolutely love this guy to be honest. At times he comes out of the back a bit too far (like Luiz) but it's much rarer that he does that compared to Luiz. He's very solid. Not sure about his height, but isn't he a little short to be a Premier League central defender? I know it's not ALL about height and strength in this league, but he looks around the same height as Azpi.
  8. He hasn't done it on a rainy night at Stamford Bridge!! To truly set in stone that you are the greatest, this challenge must be concurred.
  9. Not to put anything against his goals, but the 2 central defenders he's up against are from the opposition's U21 & U19 team. Sooo it's kind of like Falcao vs. shit versions of Chalobah and Pappoe.
  10. Fucking hell. Good day of football sort of! I'll feel sick if i hear any pundits spewing that "This is a good poster for the Premier League" or whatever it is though.
  11. He seems to play best centrally as a creative striker, just off of another striker. No idea how he'd fit into our system if we gave him a cup game or 2 eventually.
  12. This comparison is usually used far too much.. but honestly, just watch some videos of Messi when he was in Barcelona's academy or "B" team. Pretty much like that from what I can see.
  13. Just something random I've noticed - When other teams pay money for a player, the transfer fee is what's quoted as them paying. When we pay money for a player, often these days 'journalists' quote the amount of money that the player would make throughout their whole contract while playing for us and not the transfer fee. If Manchester United want to buy Bony, it's - "Manchester United to pay £10mil for Bony." If we want to buy him, it's - "Chelsea to pay £48m for Bony." blah blah blah. It just annoys me.
  14. I'd rather a Manure win over a ManShitty win. As someone mentioned before - Another trophy on top of Manure's big pile is no big deal. I'd rather not have Man City win the league again. I don't want them to so quickly reach the heights we've reached.
  15. Well there's one player we won't be getting - Sneijder has apparently agreed to join PSG. He'll earn 6m euros a year w/bonuses on a contract which runs until 2016. Earlier today, before these details surfacing, there were rumours of AC Milan trying to get Pastore on loan from PSG.
  16. WOOOO!!!! LAMPARD AND RAMI THE DOUBLE PIVOT!! WORLD BEATERS I TELL YOU!!! Yes. We must sign a new CDM in January IMO. ORRR loan one. We could probably loan a decent player from Holland or Germany.
  17. Oooo so after doing some research it would seem that he supports Chelsea & Lazio. Good.
