Special Juan

Moyes In.

Get the fuck in. The press wanked them off all week and now the media darlings sent packing. Wankers.

Won't stay like this.

Imagine that as a plus... How the mighty have fallen eh!!

It was a joke mate, sorry you didn't get it.

Here is a thought, we are now ready to KO the PL season and already the media are hyping United to the hilt and saying they are the ones who will shock everyone…. They have signed only two players this summer, that's scary for a team that was so poor last season.

Would love to see this lad kick on now this season, opinion is divided on him…the lad can do better and i think he can. I'm just not ready to throw in the towel just yet on the boy. But I still stand by that it is a huge season for him and Willian this year. Hope they both produce.

Love big Pete, absolute legend. But it's time this club took a chance on a huge talent, look no further than Tibo, he's fucking immense. Nobosy, and I mean nobody will have a bad word against Petr, he's done it all here. A new chapter for him and for us hopefully. Proper Chels, proper legend and a fucking top bloke.

Not a big move at all IMO, the right move.

Him and Bojan could be really good for them.

I will be there about 5pm and get some food with the lad and a slow walk to the ground. "Dad how many hours till we leave for Burnley" "Are we there yet"

Now edited to say 11. Drogba

Edited to now say 8. Oscar

Well, after today's PC it maybe there is, the window is open, are we going in for the kill again?

People speak as if Atletico aren't worthy of going too. Why wouldn't it make sense? Atletico are a superb project, not only that they have made some superb purchases already and look to be trying to build on last season. I think it would be a great coup for Atletico and also a great move for Reus. The lad is giving himself a challenge in another league if it all happens, fair play to him.

Sounds like someone is going according to Jose. Mourinho: "OR if Petr plays, Courtois can think about leaving and vice versa. I cannot have one top keeper on the bench for 3 or 4 months" Mourinho on the goalkeeper situation: "I don't think any manager happy to see one player not comfortable."

Mourinho: "The market is open. You never know what can happen. You don't know the reaction of players in these last days" Mourinho on the goalkeeper situation: "I don't think any manager happy to see one player not comfortable."

Vitesse apparently. http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/12040/9422700/transfer-news-chelseas-josh-mceachran-set-for-vitesse-arnhem-move

Boro trying to get Baker now, and the deal for Bamford is also close. What a side Boro will have if these two deals come off. http://www.gazettelive.co.uk/sport/f...-baker-7617482

It's nearly upon us, the start of Chelsea's quest for PL glory begins on Monday against a lesser know PL outfit in Burnley. Now the name Burnley won't strike fear into many and I think some are seriously under estimating what they are and how this match is some what of a blank canvas. I remember being at the Bridge for when we hosted Hull a few seasons back, sat there, thinking hey '4-0, 5-0' and how I got a shock, these were new boys ready for a fight, they didn't care who we were, what we have won, they wanted a fight, they gave us a fight and nearly give us a fright. Boos rang around the Bridge everytime Hunt touched the ball, we know the history, and yes I said Hunt, and wasn't it just typical he pops up and scores the opener, it just had to be. The moral of the story here is never, ever under estimate the opposition, Hull had nothing to lose and neither will Burnley because Sean Dyche will have his men ready and firing just like the managers represents on the sidelines. Isn't it madness that years ago pre season was just a smattering of fans watching from the stands and the atmosphere so quiet you could here chairs popping back up into the closed position as people went for a pie or left for the loo. Look at our game earlier in the week against Sociedad a nigh on full Stamford Bridge was on hand to witness Diego Costa take apart Sociedad within six minutes, it just shows you how far football has become and how eager fans are now to get a glimpse of the new stars and be part of the welcoming and also ready for the tape to go up. I liked the player introduction on Tuesday, I felt it was good for both players and fans, not only that but it added the personal touch as each player was introduced especially that introduction of Drogba, wasn't it great to see him back on the hallowed turf and getting the reception he deserved? Marvelous. I was well surprised at our new lighting on Tuesday and how now the world has moved into the LED light world, the pitch looked immaculate, the football was good and Stamford Bridge with a huge downpour didn't dampen any spirits, in fact the image of Diego Costa wheeling away whilst the rain poured is stuck in my head. I mean come on, there was a rainbow above the Bridge on Tuesday, reminded me of the Wembley arch........We will be back there this season, that told me so. I think all the 'i's' have now been dotted and all the 't's' been crossed and we are ready to go. Summer has been a long one, even with the World Cup, I thought it would of been 'Blink and it's Kick Off in the PL' not so, it's dragged but now it's here. Pre season was good, the gaffer seems happy with his signings and the fans seemed in good voice on Tuesday. See you all Monday......CAREFREE!!!!! Click here to view the article

I think this is the first time I will ever say this.....Roll on Monday.

Be a very stupid move.

Can't believe Pulis has gone. Aguero signed a new five year deal at City.

I've made this point clear in here before and I will try and make it again, but please read it and understand it. This thread will divide opinion probably more than any other thread on here because of the player concerned in the debate. Lads, debate is fine, no problem with that at all, its when the sly the digs and provoking of others kicks in is when it all starts to go pear shaped and we have to step in. There has been a number of incidents in this thread which closed it down and as mods we don't want that, we want these threads to run smoothly and without us having to step in every two minutes. Us mods have a role to keep as much as we can on track and keep the forum running smoothly and as members you can easily help us by staying on track and being civil, that's all we ask. If this is adhered too all is good, and this applies for every thread on the forum. Keep it clean, keep it civil and keep on track on our jobs is easy and you help to move the forum forward. Not everyone will agree on everything, debate it right or agree to disagree. This isn't who gets the most house-points and who wins the most cakes, it's just debate. We are all here for the same thing, to chat, raise points and be civil…..if we can't stick to the basics then you shouldn't be here. So my advice to you all is simple……Play nice, enjoy the forum and most of all respect others. Take this advice into threads and respect others and this forum will be better for it.
