Correct, Bolton at home

I have no doubt your right..We can dream though..
-
Really hoping it's something along these lines.

This reminds me of the "blue in their veins" promo for 07. If that's anything to go by, we should be getting a pretty decent kit..
-
Just do what i did, block him.. It's much more enjoyable now..
-
Fuck, that is one ugly kit! i definitely won't be buying it. Might as well just buy another one of this years kit.

Is Chalobah ready for the first-team?

The entire youth set-up in football is an absolute joke imo. So many players rot away playing on some half assed training ground week in and week out. I know Rugby league is nowhere in comparison to football, but here in Australia, the youth set up is extraordinary. The under 20 (youth comp) open for the first division every week. This means they get to travel and play in front of the same crowed as the "big boys". This has proved a massive success as at least 5 players per team graduate to the first division every year, some to there parent club and some get picked up by rival clubs. My point is, some players thrive on big crowds to perform and it also gets players ready for what to expect in the future. It's also good for sponsorship and television ratings as people have a chance to see how the youth system is going and players get more exposure. -

My opinion, you have way too much time on your hands... -
I'll never forget how when Drogba was doing well, the club was doing well. I think a lot of people still underestimate how good he actually is. 04-05 first year at the club, limited opportunities but takes all that are given including the winner vs Liverpool in the Carling cup final. 05-06 cops some flak for diving and says he wants to leave, but a long chat with Jose changes his mind and he stays playing a huge part in the squad to win the EPL including an absolute blinder vs Liverpool at Anfield. 06-07 scored 36 goals including the winners in the Carling cup and FA Cup. 07-08 injured for a long time during this season, never quite got over Jose getting the sack and the club buying Nico Anelka. He returns to have an absolutely amazing game vs Liverpool at the bridge (actually my favourite ever game). Unfortunately this was DDs worse season that ended with that red card in Moscow. 08-09 started the season injured and unsure if he was staying. Fell out of favour with big Phil, copped a 4 match ban in his return match vs Burnley for coin throwing. Big Phil gets sacked, Drogba, imho hits his greatest form to date including goals in both legs vs juventus, the winner vs arsenal in the FA cup semi and the equaliser vs Everton in the final. 09-10 Carries his form from last season into this season and has without a doubt his best season for Chelsea. Scores important goals vs arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham and Manchester united to clinch us the EPL title, he also gets the epl golden boot and scores the winner vs Pompey in the FA cup final. 10-11 starts the season with a hattrick and Chelsea are flying. He hers malaria while away on international duty and didn't quite recover. The club then go on and make the biggest mistake of it's history and buy Fernando Torres, and drogba become a bit-part player. Carlo Ancellotti gets sacked and a finish with no silverware for the first time since 08. 11-12 Didier's final season at the club and his most memorable. Scores the only goal vs Barcelona at the bridge and the winner vs bayern in the final. An absolute legend at the club on and of the field. Should have been given another contract and allowed to retire wearing blue. . Would welcome him back with open arms. Makes me sick to go to Wembley without him.

Can't see us getting fourth. Arsenal have nothing else to play for but top 4, and Tottenham seem to leave there best till last.
-
First time in my life that i couldn't care less which way the result goes.. If we lose, we can focus on getting in the top 4, no chance of an Fa Cup for Rafa and i'd be very happy. If we win, we'll go on to lose vs Citeh and have to play another game anyway. I know i sound like an utter fuck-wit at the moment, but this season has had it's toll on me.. Fuck it, I'm tired...
-
I hope to God we get knocked out on Monday. I'd rather nothing then watch that fucking disgusting excuse for a manager touch one of our trophies. I knew his ploy from the beginning..
-
Oh no, not at all! i swear, your the dumbest person I've had the displeasure of conversing with. I'm gonna add you to my ignore list with Henrique..
-
He wouldn't would he? absurd you say?? My friend, your opinion is about as important as the Europa League trophy...
-
I can't believe anybody here would actually be against Jose coming back. Its baffling actually.. Nobody gets shit done like the Special One... If you're comparing his relationship with the players at Madrid, to the ones he'll manage here, please stop. The Madrid players are a bunch of overpaid, celebrities. They have enough talent to win every trophy but lack the passion to win. I have a feeling that's what Jose is sick of. Imagine having to deal with the likes of Ronaldo, Ramos and Benzema on a daily basis? Fuck that! Come home Jose, to where your actually loved.
-
I just got an erection! Now to wake the wife....
-
I bet it will be nothing...
-
Fucking cricket news! Who gives a fuck!!!!
-
Don't be so sure.. His hate for Mourinho would be dangerous.. BTW, he will have a job regardless of our finish. Have you seen some of the managers going around these days?
-
The worse thing Chelsea can do is announce that Jose is coming back before Benitez fucks off. He (Rafa) will make sure we don't make the Champions League..
-
Like most intelligent football fans, i'd rather sign Lewandowski. Falcao or any player would never live up to a 60,000,000 price tag...
-
My point exactly.. Big fish in a small pond.
-
Over this bloke. The only reason he gets so much attention is because he's the only player outside barca or real that does anything. If he played for either team, he wouldn't be worth as much. Look at David villa before he went to barca, everybody wanted him. Now you could probably pick him up for half the price barca payed.
-
Can't believe we are still in it. Honestly our boys are playing at around 60% and we are still going through lol. Fuck it, it is what it is..
