Fulham Broadway

Lol true. He seems like one of those instinctive players that knows where the ball will drop, ala Nistlerooy, and can see him linking nicely with Joe Cole, Shevchenko. Would definitely score a few, and even if he was a flop, a good reason to piss the yids off.

Lol! badboy. Wind up maestro. Ballack did show the German World Champion ability for which he was bought, and has to be preferential for the taking of set pieces. Cant understand why Belletti getting slated, he gives 100% and has been a top buy. Hilario was on form as well.

Bloke shouldn't be in the job and is winging it. We have a chance of the title, with or without Grant. Abramovich needs to open his wallet this month, and buy Berbatov, Anelka and a quality defender. And Ronaldhino while we're at it.

Ok, so he made some grunting noises, cant see the miserable fucker being inspirational somehow.

Terry Venables. Ex- Chelsea legend, out of a job atm, tactically aware.

Pacey but a bit erratic form wise...-and its Tribal football

Grant has ran a line to the tabloids how he fired up all the players at half time, motivated them, and gave them a 'right Ballacking'. Cant see it myself somehow.

Yeah good shout Aroop, we need a defender or two. Offload that bag'o shite Haim while we're at it as well.

Berbatov, Ronaldhino or Anelka . Theres no excuses for not splashing the cash this January. £250 million should do it for starters.

The Yids have said they want to hang on to Berbatov, but his agent has said hes open to offers. Come on Roman give Grant the dosh and howver much it costs (it'll be loose change in your world) and get him immediately. We could be in with a serious chance of the League if you do.

3 points welcome but pretty shambolic performance, even with the absentees. Israeli weakest links more than evident now -Ben Haim, and Grant. Both liabilities , but Grant is finding it harder to hide his cluelessness. Kalou offside but ...great..about time we had a dodgy decision in our favour.

Shocking -only 35 .

Pleased with the three points but there seems to be less and less of Mourinho stamped on the performances. Theres no way he would have tolerated that kind of slapdash losing of possession. I hope a decay isn't setting in. Arsenal, ManU and us all had luck on their side this weekend. Yids should have won, I dont care that that even Moyes said Pienar fucked up ..-fact is Giggs knew the game was drawn, and definitely knew what he was doing playing for the trip. We were lucky to get three points as well.

Slightly shades it over Bridge for me.

Apologies are always small and hidden away and er yes, Vital Football , papers rarely print anything thats truthful. 1. Apologies are always small and hidden away

Right. Also I think France had more colonies in Africa than the UK ? So some would be entitled to dual nationality.

Racist. How does Wenger manage to get his hands (no pun intended) on so many ?

Never easy against the dirty northerners. I still blame Savage for Kezmans shit performances. He elbowed him on his debut. Welcome to the Premiership. Anyway, even with our absentees we should come away with three points, which we need if theres any chance of catching the gooners 6 point adrift. Mark Hughes’ side have conceded 14 goals in their last five games and not won since the turn of the month.

Still it's history now. They're out of the competition, we take on their Merseyside cousins , and are 180 mins away from another final

Already applies to Italian teams Thats gash, cant be true.

No word from the FA yet about Crouch swearing at supporters as he went off. Funny that.

Arnesen should have emphasis on scouts in Africa, if he hasn't already, judging by the quality of players coming from there. Something Arsenal realised a few years ago.

If it'd been the other way round Mikel would have been pilloried in the media, and booooooed at following matches.

Although no CL game is a foregone conclusion, it'd be safe to say we'll overcome the Greeks. LuaLua still there ?

Good news, and from the Telegraph The deal represents the first fruit of a network of scouts in South America established by Chelsea's sporting director Frank Arnesen that has also alerted the club to Corinthians' 17-year-old Brazilian prospect Lulinha. Arnesen has been tracking Di Santo for a year and the signing comes after Chelsea saw off interest in the player from both Liverpool and Manchester United. "The operation is closed with Chelsea," said Audax Italiano club president Valentin Cantergiani, "and the only detail now is the percentage of the fee we receive if Franco moves to another club." Di Santo, who has been one of the stand out performers in the Chilean league this year, has agreed a five year contract and will arrive in London to join up with his new team-mates in January.
