Pacquiao

RDM is clearly worried about there attacking fullbacks Fabio and Bosingwa, both will get forward so it makes sense to play Bertrand and Ramires, as they will need to stop them as Ivanovic and Ash will be busy dealing with SWP and Park so a smart move from Robbie.

if he doesn't join up with the team training tomorrow then no.

Surprised it hasn't been posted already. http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11668/8071700/Chelsea-crowned-European-Club-of-the-Year

we should have loaned them Lukaku and De Bruyne in the summer as part of the deal!

we have more Spanish speakers and South Americans in the team than City do as well, also its likely he would prefer to live in London rather than Manchester. So these could also be factors that could put us ahead of City to sign him.

you miss the point, its perfectly ok to criticize Torres even he would admit that, but what gets people angry is the way certain people criticize Torres they make out as if he has never put in one good performance for us and as if he he gets 20 one on ones a games and misses all of them week in week out! its perfectly fine when people say 'Torres just hasn't been good enough for us and needs to improve alot this season' but what we usually read about Torres is 'Torres is crap! he is the worst striker in the league! he is one of the worst strikers ever! blah blah blah!' that is why the Torres arguments always happen! people always go way OTT with the criticism towards him.

why are you so certain that he wont join Real Madrid?

Mikel is class simple as that, best thing is he keeps on improving. I really want to see Romeu in the double pivot with Mikel though to see how that works out.

the perfect time imo to unleash Marin would be if were winning comfortably at around the 70th Minute against Stoke then bring Marin on for the last 20 minutes then give him a start against Wolves. Qpr and Juventus games should be where we can give Oscar a start against Qpr and give Moses some minutes in both.

Torres is already 'back' didn't you know?

did you not see Torres's goal against Newcastle! about 15 passes in that move.

he done nothing spectacular yesterday but alot of his simple one touch passes were a joy to watch, simple but effective is how i would describe his performance yesterday.

it could be argued that the Striker position is just a weak as we haven't had a striker score 20+ league goals since the 2009/10 season. Why wouldn't we spend big on a striker when that striker is the best in the world and could actually be a realistic signing.

they were brilliant but damn greedy! every time they got near goal they just shot! it was like a team full of Sturridge's. Falcao kept making great runs but whenever his teammates had even half a yard to shoot they would, even though alot of the time Falcao was in a better position.

Falcao scored in 2 minutes against Uruguay! Cavani has done nothing in the game so far. 1-0 HT.

Falcao vs Cavani tonight! Colombia vs Uruguay! i'm looking forward to see them both especially Falcao.

I would love Torres or Hazard to score a last minute winner at Old Trafford to secure us the title!

one of my memories of Ballack is in the dressing room after the F.A Cup final in 2010 where Ballack was taking the piss out of Kalou for his open goal miss!

I would love Ricky back here! i just cant believe he is still at Madrid!

not true! Falcao is not that type of striker who needs good service to score goals he only needs decent service as he is capable of scoring from nothing and is capable of creating his own chances, he only needs half a chance and he will put the ball in the back of the net, just like Drogba, he never needed great service to score as he could do the rest on his own Falcao is no different.

age is not an issue Ballack showed last season that he has still got it, just like that ginger fella at united.

wow that would be amazing! imagine getting to a penalty shoot out in the CL final again but this time Ballack steps up to take the last penalty and smashes it in to retain our CL trophy!

all depends if Romeu or Oscar or even Ramires step up into the double pivot role and make it their own!

with the club letting Meireles, Essien and Lukaku go this summer i can see us signing replacements in January. I have a feeling its going to be an exciting January transfer window like in 2011 when we signed Luiz and Torres, hopefully this January it will be Falcao and a DM coming in!

he wont go anywhere he only wants an improved contract at Madrid.
