  1. Isn't Dzagoev available on a bosman? Or has he signed a new contract? It's blatant that we need good, solid rotation options for Hazard/Oscar/Mata and he'd be perfect in my opinion. He supports Chelsea (apparently), is Russian (Roman likey ) and I'm pretty sure we had solid interest in him last season.
  2. I said this when I thought we were getting dumped out of the CL last season by Napoli and I'll say it again - Europa League = Blessing in disguise. This could be the sort of chance Piazon, Feruz (long shot), Saville, whoever really, can grasp with both hands and try and make a mark. Obviously it would've been more exciting with Chalobah, McEachran, Kane etc. at the club but at least they're doing well elsewhere for now. It's also a chance to add a brand new trophy to the cabinet. Although I don't really fancy us for the trophy I'll concede.
  3. Chanting "Torres, Torres" over and over again yet I don't remember any Mata chants... hardly any for Drogba when he was here...none for Oscar vs. Juve... It's just sickening to me.
  4. How people on here like Luiz as a player is beyond me. That stupid thing he always does (letting the ball roll through his legs without him even checking behind him) would have cost us there in an important match.
  5. Yay. Torres is scoring against what's basically League 1 opposition in a game which doesn't count from the looks of it. GO TORRES!!! NO NEED TO SELL HIM!!!
  6. We must be the only club to put 3 defenders on the bench as well as a goalkeeper and defensive midifelder... *sigh*. Yes, I'm sure Bertrand, Azpi or Mikel coming on could win us the game!!!
  7. Hopefully we lose if Shakhtar fail to win vs. Juve. I thought I could stand Rafa being our manager but I just can't.
  8. The only worry for me is players like Oscar, Mata etc. leaving for 'bigger' teams like Real Madrid as they're more stable at this point and can get just as many trophies as us. No offence to him or his fans, but I don't care too much for Hazard at this point so he can do what he wants. Hopefully some of our newer players are loyal to us.
  9. Hmm... what to use today...
  10. Luiz, in my opinion, needs a completely different role. Instead of strolling forward and leaving a slow Terry as our last defender, he needs to act a bit more like how Carvalho was during his time with us - more like a covering defender when partnered with Terry; scooping up loose balls, punting the ball away, and just making sure the ball does not go into the back of the net. Similar has happened at Barcelona with Puyol. With his decline and loss of pace (not like he ever had much), Pique has had to stop roaming forward as much and now often covers for Puyol.
  11. I wouldn't mind us going for Fischer from Ajax! I often forget we're one of the biggest and best clubs in the world (despite our form), so we deserve the very best. I see Fischer becoming everything Gronkjaer was hyped up to be and more. He's brilliant.
  12. You're all just haters. Rafa has what it takes to become one of the top 5 managers of all time and our best ever.
  13. De Bruyne only has 67% pass succession so far.
  14. What we saw today from Falcao really was that he offers very little unless he's around the opponents penalty box with a soaring cross coming in or if he has the ball at his feet.
  15. Does anyone know of any decent English-speaking journalists on Twitter who focus on or talk allot about the Eredivisie?
  16. Hoping for an Atletico Madrid win tonight. Anything to increase the chances of Mourinho being sacked and coming back
  17. How can people who started supporting the club because of Roman be saying "Roman out"? Do people not realise it's not as simple as that? If we get a new owner you can all fuck right off with your Cavani/Falcao/Whoever fantasises and likely settle for the likes of Bendtner and Lampard playing until he's 50.
  18. It's not Benitez's fault that our players don't give a fuck about games after taking the lead. They've been this way for ages before his appointment.
  19. I literally and genuinely hate Torres with a burning passion. I've also had enough of Rafa already. Awful subs today. However people need to stop blaming everything on Torres and Rafa. The other players have the fucking worst mentality i have EVER seen in football. "Take the lead and stop trying".
  20. I want to fucking kick the shit out of Torres.
  21. Azpi looks like he could be the next Paulo Ferreira (when he was in his prime). I believe Mourinho made a comment on Paulo a few years back saying something along the lines of - "He'll rarely win MOTM, but he'll always get a 7/10." I can see similar from Azpi.
  22. Just a quick reminder for anyone interested - Later on are 3 potentially amazing games - Real Madrid vs. Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich vs. Borussia Dortmund & Ajax vs. PSV!
