Special Juan

I love how it's always 'On collision course' Bring Cavani.

It's absolute madness mate.

That's what I am saying!!

Charged for what comments, he never said anything out of order did he?

Should be moved on come the summer, he's had a good stint here but needs a pat on the back and move him on. Did well last night, hair was awful and is like the coffee Revel for me.

100k a week for an 18 year old and 30M price tag......deary me.

If you asked Ramires to run five lengths of the field he would and quick. If you give him a ball he would be like a Kangaroo on fucking speed.

Let's get a plane up.......Jose out banner.....

Football at this level is about planning, having a game plan and deploying in such a way that suits the tools you have and what the opponent bring to the table in terms of threat and their and philosophy. Nobody will pissing it going to Atletico or Liverpool but what will be required is a plan on how to play. Atletico was a two legged affair where we could not, and didn't, play ourselves out of the tie after 90 minutes and leaving us with every chance come next Wednesday, we did, and it's on. Every team relies a little on luck or rub of the green, but what this team has that a lot of teams don't is desire and that never say die attitude and most importantly on the biggest stage of all.

That's just been over picky. He commanded his area brilliantly and made a tremendous save from a FK. What a stage to come in on, the SF 1st leg of a CL cup tie and produce a rock solid performance.

Hazard and Eto'o could be ready for the return, that in itself is a huge boost.

Let me drive this home to you. I have been having a go at Ramires for the most of the season because his performances have been well below par, everyone can see that. You, are making excuses for his first touch last night by blaming Torres for being behind him for crying out loud. His first touch had nothing to do with Torres, had his first touch not been like a school boy he probably would of got to the box and then allowed Torres to actually get into a position to deliver, but no, this is Ramires we are talking about and the thing that has been so poor all season from him again rears it's ugly head.......So yeah let's blame Torres. The team last night as a whole and as a collective group was good, what wasn't good was our decision making and the fact when we got the ball our touch or choice was fucking bordering on pathetic. Our chances to get out and retain the ball last night were limited, when we did we panicked and our touch and distribution was so poor. I class the final result as really good, but when you talk about individuals who struggle to do the basics right and correct then there was some culprits who stood out and who have been doing it the majority of the season.

He was excellent once again. There was a point in the game he chased down the ball right back to Tibo, and that wasn't an isolated incident either, he did it all night from the word go. Hence for me, the player of the season by a long, long way.

That bolded bit has nothing to do with his first touch at all. You are simply making excuses for him and how bad his touch is without actually looking at it properly. You are making things up to suit your argument here about suspensions making him have lack of of confidence. The long and short of it is, Ramires is a poor reader of the game and plays in such a position that means that is not possible. He's clumsy and that is why he has found himself booked/suspended more frequent because his reading and judgement is not what it should be.

No, no it isn't. That was a basic pass and managed to completely fuck it up. The bloke is struggling to pass and do the most basic things asked of him. His only asset is pace and that's that. He's been a complete passenger for 90% of the season and why he is constantly selected for well under par performances is beyond...He's awful.

My opinion is not just based on the match, but his whole season.

What the fuck was he playing at when he was put in last night? His first touch was that of a school boy on the playground and there isn't anything you can say good about the ball he played. He's fucking useless right now.

Obviously I don't read other news outlets across the world, or many other forums but I bet we aren't far away from it in all honesty. Something I do know though, the Arsenal obsession with us is bordering on obsessive.

Bale out of tonight's game with flu.

Listening to Colin Murray and Dietmar Hamman on Talskport is quite funny....I am not sure why they don't just come out and say "Chelsea are wankers and we don't like them"

Schwarzer Ivanovic Cahill Luiz Cole MvG Matic Salah Oscar Schurrle Ba

There was a point when Luiz had the ball last night, and instead of making a run across Godin he ran towards Luiz His big daft fucking smile in the tunnel did my head in. Like a kid just seeing his birthday cake.

Barca's transfer ban suspended. http://www.fifa.com/aboutfifa/organi...794/index.html

It's 0-0 with a home leg at home to come. You say your tired of the team doing it the hard way......So did you expect us to go to Madrid and come away with a convincing against one of the best sides in Europe? Then your mad and have seriously underestimated Atletico Madrid and what they are capable of. Then you speak of 'Miracles' sounds like you think we are 4-0 down, it's 0-0, and whilst there is a lot of football to be played we can win this no bother at all.

Stamford Bridge on a big night is immense, have you ever been on a big night occasion? We had a game plan and people talk about it as if it's not allowed, and instead of moaning all the fucking time give the lads and manager a bit of credit for going to the leaders in Spain and getting a draw. This isn't a sprint, it's a marathon.
