Special Juan

Tell roman he's shit, and he's got no fans!!!

No, no problem, just laughed at it.

I have no idea why but this made me laugh.

Kalispera.

whilst we have the best manager in the world at the club I feel we will have one of the most talented kids at the club. Hand in glove scenario.

He's the man.

Love the white one.

Some player the boy.

The cup final day is well over. Pardew is still celebrating that win I think.

Just scored v Dortmund...1-1

For me it's one word...'Integration' I can 100% see why they haven't been given the so called limelight debut in a full capacity, but in the same breath it's like nurturing a flower to grow but then allowing it to blossom in full sun light. Games like Schalke away are good examples where games are dead at one certain point and that's the point they should be shown the field and I think this is the main point. There is massive emphasis on this group and club to produce something this season and right now it's looking very good, but there is also a point where there will be games where players like Ake and Boga can be integrated onto the bench and given the chance in the last 15-20 minutes. The frustrating thing from my point of view is seeing games dead, and then fetching on say Schurrle, when the option of young blood can then be brought on.

Does him carrying the stretcher go down as another assist?

Not an easy game and like stated City v Palace is a dead rubber for me, so I fully expect it to be all level on points. Tibo Ivanovic Cahill Terry Azpilicueta Matic Cesc Willian Oscar Hazard Costa That's the line-up I think Jose will go for IMO- I'd personally like to see Willian replaced by Andre and Cahill for Zouma.

Bad shit Koeman not shaking hands, I don't like to see that no matter who it is. He's under severe pressure now, you can tell.

Maybe it is best you stay out of this thread for a while to cool down, and whilst you are around the forum please refrain from telling people to 'Fuck off'

A tad sloppy in the early moments last night but grew into the game.

Not many can say they were injured by Cech's helmet

He is speaking about when they run on without anyone on the stretcher.

I know it's early but this could easily be one of the best purchases this club has ever made.

Very professional display from start to finish and into the semi-finals we go. Thought Cesc was brilliant and as a whole everyone did their job brilliantly well. This whole running onto the field shit is PC gone fucking bonkers again....a bloke is in a serious way laid on a field and they saunter on like they are walking for a fucking paper. Total bollocks. Delighted to see Andre on the score sheet again, thought Hazard took his goal brilliantly and that was a sublime FK from Filipe. Delighted with how we went about our business last night, this was a more difficult task than some gave it credit for. The good thing about this football club is how we treat every game like a final, and the line up said exactly that, Jose wasn't allowing any banana skins here and we reaped the rewards of both respecting our opponent and fielding a line up to see us through. Fucking get in...

Too quick to key bash and squad bash without even reading properly.

Suffocate what will be a very noisy crowd, get one mid point of the first half and dominate from that point. I fucking hate Steve McLaren and when I watched Boro v Derby on Saturday they were shocking Derby......that doesn't mean much tonight because it's their cup final, but that line up for me is far too strong for this Derby side.

This forum before SKY. DD is in good form and I fancy him to continue it tonight.

Really, really strong that. That means business.
