You can see the joy on his face in that video. Settled very well in the team, he is feeling important again.

Sports journalist apparently......

Yeah, top top prospect this lad. Was watching the first 30 mins of Marseille - Toulouse before Liverpool started and he looked damn good. Modern holding midfielder and left footed, just like Matic

Colin Young

Agree. Loftus-Cheek, Baker, Tielemans. Let the overrated Brazilians stay in their country. Or join Liverpool and Arsenal.

In normal circumstances Madrid would put 5 past them, but knowing this is before the bloody El Clasico, then I don't know... Their minds are already set on that game, I'm 100% sure they don't give a fuck about Balotelli and that gang of wankers.

Must have been in training for sure because today it was Honda with a brace and an own goal from a Verona defender.

He rates Mertesacker, Vermaelen, Sakho and Vertonghen as world class centre halves and thinks Thiago Alcantara is better than Cesc in his prime. Just so you know who you are speaking to.

You can make a fail compilation out of Balotelli's performance this season. The guy has scored what? 1 goal in 75 shots? What a rate. And what a clown. Fits that dreadful team like a glove

Liverpool are a shambles. Slippy G to win it from the spot? Any early bets?

To be honest I don't think the situation got worse than it was before the international break, it is just a measure of precaution to have him as fit as possible for the Old Trafford trip.

He will start against Maribor, no doubt about it.

I feel sorry for Azpi, he rushed into that stupid tackle right in front of the eyes of the ref and that's exactly what Filipe was waiting for. You can't do such thing with one of the best left backs in the world breathing down your neck. Now it's Filipe's spot to lose I'm afraid.

Mertesacker must be the worst defender to have ever won the World Cup

Did you even bother reading the posts before?

Chadli is stealing a living as a footballer

The fact that you are comparing football's greatest with Marquinhos, Vermaelen, Vertonghen, Mangala, Sakho, Koscielny, Mertesacker and Howedes is just an insult to this sport and sums it up about you, really. I have to take back what I said, you are not one of the worst posters on here, you are THE worst poster in terms of football knowledge. Never understood why people like you choose to waste their only neuron on sports they will never understand. Stick to you local sports soccer boy and save us from this new generation bs. This sport hasn't started three years ago when you first watched a football game.

lol Sturridge out for three more weeks

Cannavaro, Baresi, Passarella, Bobby Moore, Beckenbauer, Bergomi, Gentile and there are many others that I can't remember now. Man you really are one of the worst posters on this forum in terms of football knowledge. No offence.

The translator got this one wrong. "per Cuadrado si muove il Chelsea" = "Chelsea is interested in Cuadrado" "I viola sono ad un passo dal rinnovo del contratto del colombiano ma il club allenato da Mourinho è alla finestra" = Fiorentina is a step closer from renewing Cuadrado's contract, but the club managed by Mourinho is at the window (looking at the situation). "Il colombiano è in attesa del nuovo accordo promesso la scorsa estate, è nel mirino dei club più forti e ricchi d'Europa. Negli ultimi giorni anche il Chelsea di Mourinho è sulle sue tracce ma la società viola fa trapelare che tutto verrà sistemato molto presto" = The Colombian waits for the new contract and he is in the sight of the biggest and richest clubs in Europe. In the last few days even Chelsea has shown interest in him, but sources inside the Viola club said that everything will be resolved very soon.

Based on what? Youtube compilations? Have you actually seen Cesc play in his Arsenal days? Thiago is 23 and I don't even know if he has played 80 games for Barcelona and Bayern combined. Cesc at 23 was already captaining the Arsenal side and had 200 games in the EPL. Plus Champions League, FA Cup and League Cup matches. Yes, Thiago is a great talent and an exciting player to watch, but better than Cesc in his Arsenal days??? No way

Get in!!!

He would have been already on a hattrick if this was Chelsea vs Luxemburgo. So unlucky.
