  1. Tbf Moses excells in the role oft the underdog. How often has he beaten the top Teams at goodison?
  2. Couldn't believe we haven't yet had a threat for him considering we have been linked with him for 5 years. http://www.tagesanzeiger.ch/sport/fussball/Mein-Traum-bleibt-Chelsea/story/13931437?track http://www.101greatgoals.com/blog/chelsea-target-cut-price-cska-striker-seydou-doumbia-the-bane-of-manchester-citys-existence/ http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/536915/Chelsea-target-Seydou-Doumbia-CONFIRMS-offer Probably will never be here but I wonder why we did not sign him in 2010, given we are his drema club, when he left Switzerland for peanuts and then loaned him out somewhere to ruin his career and still make decent money when sold. Given he is just like Remy just unproven and a bit shorter, this not likely gonna happen now. Might be an interesting option in the summer when Remy and Drogba have left us. Also he is Citeh's nemesis scoring against them about every time he faces them. I kinda like him because of his pace, great finsihing and agility, awkward looking technique and daft interviews.
  3. Given she is 38 next month it would only be a short time signing.
  4. On paper our squad is almost on par with theirs. But in practice, Jose only uses about 13 outfield players and never rests anyone. So City's is much better.
  5. Maybe he does a lampard and joins a direct rival to maintain playing his level. So welcome to Stoke then. Can still be an important squad player there.
  6. A loan would be beneficial. He still got 4.5 Sears on his contract. 1 vor 2 ys at a small vor middle sized Club in epl or buli and he would surely double bis resell value. We would need another Winger tho. Do not geht why he and remy are not given more chances. If we don' t win a major title again this season it will be due to jose's unwillingness to rotate
  7. No can't blame him for not signing an extension. There are a few players in this team that are not even close to his level. We have a well balanced team with very good players in every position but only a few of those are worldclass, none of our attackers is. You would not see guys on the level of Oscar, Willian, Brana or Cahill anywhere near the starting lineup of Real Madrid (oscar might have the excuse of his tender age). If better players would have saved us today, I don't know but replace some of our fringe players with guys like Hummels or Reus we would probably be still a fair amount of points above City. Hazard is the level we should aim for. We might not be a club of the size of real Madrid but we should fight to keep him and not surrender to the notion of losing him to RM. We have the money to offer him the same salary, we compete for the biggest titles. All what it takes is for the club to show the ambition go in for the very top players. True we don't have the same funds Real or Bayern have, but no club generates so much income through loan fees and player trading as us. We should establish more club cooperations and trade an army of loanees every year.
  8. We are tied with City on points and goals now. But City have an advantage inthe league now because they are out of the carling cup and will go out in the CL against barcelona, too. Also they have the better squad so our chances right now are rather meh. We have to beat them now at the bridge. I hope we still got what it takes to win titles.
  9. not an excuse for our performance but phil dowd once again has been abysmal
  10. There goes the top spot and we might never see it again if City countinue their run. This was always gonna happen. Apart from some isolated games we have been shit for quite a while now. We are unable to score more than 2 from more than 20 attempts per game. Our tactics today did not help but we need. We did never really get out of the sunderland-newcastle slump we just had a tiny bit more luck and our bad level of performance has come back to haunt us. I hope people now see we need some major reinforcement and we need them now if we want to win more than a carling or fa cup this season. Our defence has often faltered under persistent pressure and it did today.
  11. btw now wiziwig is down, any good stream site?
  12. The player is cfc's best ever and THE all time legend. The man surely is not. He was always gonna join City to make US pay for not offering him a new contract or more money or whatevs. I despise that attitude and that he did not open up about his true motives. But opposite to him we should take this with dignity. We are a Chelsea, we are above the Liverpool vor Arsenal mob who spit on their legends. We will win the league and wait for him to beg us to forgive him.
  13. Rumours are he has signed the extension. Thoroughly deserved. He has been close to his very best again. Proper legend. People say he can't play a high line but funny thing in the video most of tackles are even in the opposition's half. does not look that slow either. Gary Cahill, who is much faster on the other hand has failed the halfway line tackle more than once this season. Maybe high block is not only up to the defenders' pace.
  14. Swansea removing the buy out clause from his contract surely has made him too expensive for a back-up. He is going nowhere.
  15. this. His hold-up play has been miles better than Ba's or Torres's and not worse than Remy's or Drogba's. Costa despite not as gifted has been almost on par with Agüero in terms of goals+influence on his team and in his first season in English football. He has already scored about as many goals as Agüero scored in his first whole season in English football. At the beginning of the season I predicted him to score 20-25 goals in the league which is exactly what he will do and exactly what we bought him for. Drogba had his highest scoring seasons with 29 and 32. We should give Costa as much time.
  16. with decent profit i guess, which is exactly what he was bought for. He was a rather risky investment cos he cost a million or two at only 16 but I am sure we can make at least 5 or 6m with him. this. But i wonder whether Leicester is really the best option for him. Vitesse on the other hand need a striker really bad, they had to play our own Bertrand Traore as false 9 in recent days. In the Eredivisie he will score for fun. With Thorgan's probable departure he can be our no1 cashcow.
  17. so we should at least find a buyer who is willing to pay more now. He is one of our biggest cashcows. 8m is way below his market value. this. When they try to mess with up simply terminate the loan there. He wil still be 8m in summer when there are more bidders for him.
  18. He is worth much more. I doubt this is true. But his contract here only runs till 2016 so that's maybe why. But we should not sell him to Mönchengladbach. We should call him back to put them into place. Prolong his contract and loan him elsewhere. We can make much much more profit on him.
  19. I was sure Real were in for him too because their sporting director Zidane is such a big fan.
  20. 4 year contract would be too short to make decent profit on him. He should get at least 5.5 years contract. Vitesse might appear a level too low for him even though I am sure in that league he would score 30+ goals every season and would be worth a fortune in 2 years. sign him up and sent him to a striker friendly league.
  21. this is not yet done and dusted. We own the raced against ManU and Real the two biggest clubs in the world to sign Hazard, surely we can sign Reus for crazy money.
  22. In games like this he should take more responsibility and take the shot on. I remember at Arsenal and Barca he scored at least 10-15 goals per season. Why can't he do this for us?
  23. try reading the comment correctly? There goes A tilte. Bayern have already won the Bundesliga. How are we gonna beat them in the CL when they can rest their entire squad in their joke of a league while we have to play 4 competitions with 15 players?
  24. whatever this winning mentality is, City don't got it either.
  25. ings looks like the knife guy in Costa's mafia gang
