Reddish-Blue

Why would he want to be third choice?

Liverpool won't beat us because they are the better side....they'll beat us by diving/acting and getting favourable decisions.

Thanks for the link Was looking for some quick highlights

I'd be very surprised if we win the title Our chances ended after losing to Crystal Palace

Watching City's defence getting owned by pace... I'm worried about Sturridge, Suarez and Sterling running at the likes of Ivanovic, Cahill and Terry.

I just hope Boga doesn't turn out to be another Kakuta... as in great at youth level..but lacks the consistency to make the step up to the first team.

Going for City...if they win the title, they're won't be a media wankfest.

If only Matic was available for these 2 matches....it would have made a massive difference to our midfield.

How much is the "fee"? Why don't they just lower the Costa fee for us? Win-win situation

Well said

I don't see the big issue about Courtois playing against Chelsea. He gets to experience a UCL Semi-final and we get to test ourselves against a solid defence which happens to include Courtois!

Even if United make all those signings...they won't be better than 3rd in the EPL with MOYES in charge. I still think our main rival next year: City. I'm expecting Liverpool to drop off a little bit as their players should be more fatigued from CL football

I completely agree, he was on fire during the early matches of this season....but since January, his performances have been below-par Maybe it's just fatigue setting in...hopefully he works on conditioning during the off-season and comes back a better player

The lack of winning mentality comes from the manager. If you don't win anything for 8 straight years...how are you supposed to motivate your players in the big matches? Arsenal need a fresh face in the dugout

Hope Ashley Cole and Salah get to start....the rest of the team picks itself Prediction: Swansea 1-2 Chelsea

Great in UCL, below-par in EPL

You can't stop thinking of Barkley as an AM..because that's his position: the most advanced of Everton's three midfielders. Barry and McCarthy do the dirty work in midfield and then Barkley gets forward to support Mirallas, Naismith/Pienaar and Lukaku I'm not sure how well Matic + Barkley with Oscar as the CAM would work...but it doesn't look like the right combination.

We are basically playing 4-2-3-1: -------------Striker----------- Hazard --- Oscar -- Willian -------Matic -- new player --------Back Four----------- ---------Goalkeeper-------- The problem is...Barkley isn't experienced enough to sit deep and play alongside Matic...his best position seems to be as the most advanced midfielder. Even at Everton, Barkley has the support of two deeper midfielders in terms of Barry and McCarthy. If Everton are willing to sell, I'd much rather sign McCarthy instead of Barkley as Matic's new partner.

I was surprised that more clubs didn't make a bid on Eriksen, whilst he was at Ajax. Perfect CAM

Wenger has to be considered a genius... In over 8 years, he has turned the Arsenal invincibles into a joke. He has won f*ck all, lost the Carling Cup to Birmingham, and he's managed to lower the fans expectations to a point where they are 'satisfied' with a 4th place trophy Yet, he still sits on the sidelines and gets paid a nice salary Arsenal has some quality players...but that losing mentality seems to have spread through the squad...there is no more fight in the team

Perfect squad player to have. Can't believe we managed to get him for such a low fee!

1. Hazard 2. Azpi 3. Terry

The best thing for HIM would be earning a permanent move to Everton and working with a manager who believes in him. (If they get UCL football, Everton should be able to afford him) It's pretty clear that Mourinho doesn't see Lukaku as his main man...so why should he come back to Chelsea and get the Sturridge treatment?

The problem is...our team isn't complete! What I would love to see with Mourinho: A solid goalkeeper (Courtois/Cech) A solid back-four (Azpi - Terry - Cahill - new LB) Two defensive mids ( Matic - new player) Center-midfielder... (Oscar) Two attacking mids ( Willian/Schurrle - Hazard) A quality striker (Costa/Balotelli/Bony?)

He doesn't "need" Chelsea...if he chose to leave, there would definitely be alot of interest in his services We have a 20 year old who has scored 29 goals in roughly 60 EPL games....yet just because he left the club to improve his skills and play reguarly in a world cup year, we're willing to sell him?
