We Hate Scouse

Dortmund topped the group, it's impossible

so we can get leverkusen, gala, olympiakos, zenit or milan Not baaaaaaad at all

Had high hopes for him, looked like a player that had developed incredibly well and was a really exciting prospect. Very disappointing, I don't see him staying.

That's why I was only 90%

90% sure this will be on Monday evening Forest got West Ham at home in the cup, so the two games already have to be different days. With WHU being in town they'll all be out Saturday evening as will a lot of Chelsea and Nottingham will be the choice of the night out. The only logical option is to move our game to Monday night for BT Sport under police recommendation, as our game will draw more of an audience than the Forest game.

I'd be "buzzing" if we signed him

Any idea where?

He was doing some Christmas shopping in London. Big deal.

Get in Everton!!!

Yeah he's one of the nicest guys I've come across at Chelsea. Proper Chels he is.

Again, another scrappy game. Should claw through it, but it'll be difficult.

No truer words have been written in this thread. Absolutely spot on, couldn't have put it better myself.

Mourinho being afraid is a good thing as it means he actually realises his class. He wants him to stay. You can get nothing but positives out of those comments.

Apart from the goal he had a really poor game apparently

Get a new one then tight arse

You should consider selling your body Alex. I'll donate on 20th when I get paid.

Not an easy game by any means. It's a long way to travel on a cold Wednesday evening New manager = Honey moon period I expect it will be a scrappy 1-0/2-1 win

CB's? It was straight over their heads they were facing the opposite direction whereas Rodriguez was facing goal. He had an advantage over the CB's...Why Essien was even playing that ball, with little power on it I'll never know..

From BBC Goodness me! Talk about making an impact! Michael Essien - on his first Premier League start since May 2012 - plays a shocking backpass straight toJay Rodriguez and the new England man pokes home inside 20 seconds!

Essiens first PL game in 18 months and his last?

Because it allows adequate injury time in the other matches without viewing numbers being affected. Basically all because of TV...

He was a sub against Burnley the other week and got very good reviews from the Forest fans. Apparently he completely kept them in the game and they would've lost without him. Disappointing it didn't warrant him a start on Friday. Hopefully he will feature on Tuesday against Millwall.

Sturridge?
