I could pretty much say the exact same thing. When I was fourteen I listened a lot to Guns N Roses, Alice In Chains, Pearl Jam etc. Fucking hate that shit now though. But Bowie always remained, since I was 8 years old. I'm actually listening to Hunky Dory right now. Couldn't find Low and Hunky Dory was within reach, so I put it on! Bowie is belting out 'oooooh you pretty things!' Radiohead are actually my favourite band, by a long way. I don't like Pablo Honey or The Bends so much... but OK Computer, Kid A, Amnesiac and In Rainbows are some of my favourite albums. Hail to the Thief and The King of Limbs are pretty good too. And The Smiths are another good shout. My favourite Smiths albums is The Queen Is Dead though. 'I Know Its Over' gets me every fucking time. EDIT: A recommendation: Get a bag of weed. Light up. Listen to Low. Trust me!

First time for me was when I was 8 years old and broke into my uncle's record collection and put on 'Low' by David Bowie (because I liked the cover). Fucking hell, my mind was blown away. My music taste has changed a lot over the years but Low is still my favourite album to this day.

I can see where you're coming from, but Oscar's work rate is fantastic. All Rafa would have to do is tell Oscar to track back and he will happily do it for 90 mins.

Strange! I just finished 1Q84 recently and have started reading The Idiot by Dostoevsky.

Bertrand instead of Oscar? Against Stoke, where will have most of the possession.

No one is forcing you to insult him. You have a right to make your own decisions, as does everyone else. In fact, if you can find a post on here where I insulted him then please, let me know. But yeah, I'm done arguing with you. Take care!

I explained why many fans feel the need to insult him. But because you say 'there is no need to insult him. Get it?' we should all just listen to you and do what you tell us? If you can't see why fans insult him, then you are blind.

For most fans there is a need to insult him, of course there is. Can't you see why? This isn't just a player who has played badly for so long now but a player who sulks constantly and doesn't give 100% for the badge on his chest. And that's why fans will always feel the need to insult him for as long as he's here. The fans feel insulted by his attitude to the badge.

When a player consistently plays terribly for two years, then the fans have every right to criticize him. I don't agree with insulting him but I can understand why many fans do it. We have to vent our frustration about Torres somehow. He has let the club and every single fan down since he joined.

I think I would give that title to Liverpool fans, to be honest. United fans would be a close second though.

It's funny how a lot of Chelsea fans seem to go through the five stages of grief coming up to a match. This one must be denial.

Ah I see. Thanks for clearing that up.

I thought Mata had played there last season?

Yes, but there are many other factors to consider as to why that happened. Suggesting that we shouldn't have signed any of those players because potentially could have been knocked out of a few cups is madness.

You mean we signed Hazard and Oscar, who are two of the biggest prospects in football? Yeah, that was an idiotic decision. How about Moses, who has been one of our best players over the past two months, and all for 10 million? Yeah, another stupid decision. Azpilicueta for 7 million when we had no other right-back? Who has also been playing extremely well and has been the best right-back we've had in a long time. Another idiotic decision, I suppose? You're just being a miserable twat for the sake of it at this point.

We haven't even signed him. You're just looking for something to complain about.

I seriously doubt Barcelona would sell him unfortunately. He hasn't quite broken into the first-team like Thiago has but Sergi Roberto is seen as Xavi's replacement.

Everything will be in its right place then.

Thom Yorke for manager, anyone?

Fuck. Now we'll have to sign Fellaini.

I'm guessing Swansea would sell him in the summer for 10-15 million.

I'm with you there. Negredo is a good player, good at what he does. And having Ba + Negredo would be a lot better than Torres + Ba, but he's not worth what Sevilla want for him. Which is why Chelsea moved on and bought Ba (a fantastic decision in my opinion).

Well that was out of the blue.

That's the last thing this thread needed!!!

Yeah, it's okay. Pretty much what I expected to be honest. If you're busy with other things at the moment you can do the course online too if you wanted to. Oh, and if you do decide to come to Spain, I would definitely avoid the main tourist areas as apartments in most of those areas seem to be so expensive.
