  1. Very difficult for Hazard there but you would expect more from our best player.
  2. I don't think I can take it if Cuadrado is dog dirt here...
  3. Haha, Rambo not offside and Fernandinho should've been sent off. We've definitely played badly but some key decisions have gone against us. The press conference will be entertaining if we lose this.
  4. May as well thrown in the towel if that happens.
  5. People, dogs, the mirror...anything punchable!
  6. Looks like Costa is just as likely to pick a fight with a teammate than a City player.
  7. Someone tell Fabregas that's how you take a set-piece.
  8. Fabregas is decent enough at corners but he is somehow horrible at set-pieces. Very slow deliveries. We've missed Mata greatly in that regard - for me, that feeling of 'we can score from this' has gone since he left.
  9. What's most frustrating is that when you look at their defence and centre midfield compared to ours, you would expect us to cause them a lot more problems than we currently are. City's defence and midfield can be exploited and we don't seem to have the drive to do it.
  10. Fucking hell, why is JT on Silva and why is Cahill on the pitch. Baaaaad.
  11. Wow, Tibo might have a bit of a problem displacing Asmir at this rate!
  12. There's Hazard! I honestly forgot he was playing.
  13. I wonder is Mourinho angling for new signings in terms of just Stones and Baba or does he want more? I would understand though if the board told him he's not getting any more funds for the final third of the pitch considering how much money he has spent/wasted on the RW alone...
  14. Always impressed by this lad anytime he speaks. Interesting the way he spoke about that 3rd striker spot possibly being available when Didier left... Anyway, I hope he does really well in his career no matter what happens. I just hope that his time with us only benefits his career in a positive way, be it on loan or in the first team. He really has a fantastic attitude. I would love to see him here.
  15. Well, he made that look very easy!
  16. Just scored for Vitesse. Right foot outside the box.
  17. I thought he was very tidy on the ball when he played a bit under Benitez. Still has the capability to replace Mikel in the squad I feel.
  18. Juve line up Chelsea double swoop Juan Cuadrado and Ramires are targeted. Buy two get one free (Mikel)? Seriously, that's one way to help people forget this whole Eva thing. It would be great if we bring in the likes of Pedro and Witsel to replace them...or, dare I say, Pogba? One can dream. Doubt it's happening as much as I would like it.
  19. All I'll say is that things aren't always black and white. I don't want José to get sacked obviously, but it doesn't change the fact that he's acted like a knob here. HE was the one who brought this into the media - shouting on the touchline, talking about it afterwards and doing nothing to try and remedy the situation since. He aired his dirty laundry in public and now we as a club are paying the price with this sort of garbage in the press. It also doesn't change the fact that Eva knew what she was doing with that Facebook post, it was kind of like poking a lion with a stick, and it's just made everything that much worse for the entire club. I'd just like the circus to be over as soon as possible. We have an important game to focus on and it would be great if we didn't have shit like this in the press that has the potential to be an unnecessary distraction - maybe José wants this, but it also has the potential to backfire. Either that or I also wouldn't mind if they just give José the money to sign someone. It would keep the fans happy and it would stop José throwing his toys out of the pram!
  20. Ah, I understand that. Just hoping that if he moves on and makes us look a bit silly for keeping the likes of Mikel instead it may have a positive effect for future prospects like Pasalic or MVG...but I doubt it.
  21. I've a feeling he'll do really well. I think all he needed was the chance to play in a good organised team, he should get that at Soton. Sadly, his big chance seemed to pass him by when he got that injury just after Benitez arrived. It seemed like he was going to be a starter for us under him. I wish him all the best, I really do. Maybe it might make Mourinho reconsider his CM options.
  22. Get out asap. 27 years old, won't even be able to sell him for a bag of compost next season.
  23. While we actually have legitimate income compared to City. Not to mention our Yokohama deal is one of the best in the business and the general increase in PL income, yet we spend basically nothing.
