Term-X

Hit the nail on the head.

Do we really need a seperate thread for this.. Seriously, what is the point of having 'player profiles' on this forum?

^ Sturridge making his claim to take the penalty, Mata dismissing him. I don't recall seeing this, clearly they were showing replays of the decision at the time..

They could have just taken Vitamin D supplements.

It's fake, Adidas don't use amateur mock-up templates like that. When an adidas kit gets leaked, it's usually through an 'actual' photo like last seasons.

Does AVB not observe Bosingwa's performances though? This news alone, is enough to question his managerial abilities.

Oh, what fresh hell is this.

I'd like to see 'actual' evidence that it was from a Chelsea fan, and not a journo.

I was in fact referring to the justification of the 'hype' around them, as the hype (for the most part) was justified with the bolden boot winner, unlike Piazon.

Lazy statement, they are incomparable. You are comparing a brazilian kid who has never played a single match in 'professional' football before, with a Golden Boot winner.

So naive.

http://www.soccercli...er-milan-cavani ^ Cavani's second goal against Inter.. this guy is World Class. Dread to think how many he'll slot past us in the CL.

No, it's not, clearly AVB isn't being backed financially, certainly not to the extent required for a top European club. Also, Hazard is by no means a 'star signing' in the sense that Torres & Shevchenko were. So you can drop the negative connotations with the transfer fee.

So let me get this straight, a club from the ukraine are demanding £25m (at the very least) for this guy.. How much more would Hazard cost, 10m extra? ... This is illogical, pay the extra 10-15m ffs.

Malaga CF's Billionaire owner has taken to twitter to ask the fans who they want to sign. Imagine Roman doing this, food for thought..

If I was Roman, I'd land by helicopter at the training base in majorca. Making a grandiose yet nonchalant entrance, just to put the fear of god into them.

The United situation is incomparable with Chelsea.

Wenger has lost the plot in regards to the transfer window, and you can hardly compare AVB with Sir Alex.. http://www.metro.co....nchester-united

That's essentially what Mancini says. Publicly declaring to the press that he wants one or two more players, and in the process keeping his current crop on their toes.

Not necessarily, many wise investments have been made in january, anelka, luiz, vidic, suarez, ashley young, evra etc etc.

The risk of losing our CL place is higher NOW, than it was last season.

It's the transfer window NOW, there is no reason to wait.

The worst element to this defeat and our current situation, is that Roman won't spend this month. Pathetic, disgraceful, embarrassing, depressing, lackluster.. AVB is a bigger flop than Torres.

Oriol Romeu likes 'hard football' and feels at home at Chelsea http://www.guardian....+%28Football%29 Promising quotes from the article, regarding his future.. And.. a not so reassuring quote.. Big things = Barca.
