oy vey! why must such fools represent chelsea

yeah just like costa, right? lol why do people feel the need to troll when things don't go their way? grow up

hopefully he's spot on like he has been with fabregas

I truly want to know if you were serious? Surely you weren't?

bwahahahahahahhahaha are you freakin serious????? please tell me you're on a wind-up? please????

yeah i guess you're right... i just want to see him the chelsea group already and for him to stay

why not join the chelsea group then if he's skipping vacation anyways?

basically i love political discussions but they're just so emotional, argumentative and time consuming and i'm sure i'll end up having beefs with people here i would otherwise get along with fine, i realized this when visiting this thread but couldn't resist at least posting something lol... now i'm out for good, have fun people! lol country USA? you can't even get a basic fact right... obviously having an in-depth discussion with you on the most complex issues of our times would be a futile exercise... again, so long!

so much BS don't know where to start... i'll stick to this forum for chelsea related stuff or else these sorts of ridiculous responses will drive me to waste my entire work day, too much misinformation to sift through... at least excalibur knows what's up

off the top of my head, kompany, terry, cahill, curtis davies, skrtel.... all players i'd take ahead of own goal addict koscielny who always seems to choke at the most imporant times (that's him adopting the arsenal DNA i guess...)

LOLZ i almost spit out my coffee at that one!

if they are taking someone else story and reporting it, that means they back up that other story and are wilking to put their name and reputation on the line (to a certain extent)... So imo even outlets re-reporting other sites' stories is worth sonething

imo there's no problem with that, it just shows people that particular rumor is gathering pace as numerous outlets are posting it... the way i see it, the more links and sources the better

nor can you deny that there have been enough direct quotes from lukaku himself for people not to defend him over some of these statements... people here are, for the most part, smart enough to recognize media spin when they see it. This isn't what this lukaku situation is about, there have been plenty of long quotes from him, not out of context, for us fans to know where he stands on striker competition, wanting to being loaned out/leave, whoring himself out to other clubs etc... shouldn't have lol? he didn't outperform them at chelsea, he chose to leave for fear of lack of playing time... andthis is chelsea fc we're talking about! there are ALWAYS going to be other strikers at the club... either he deals with it and fights for his place or he GTFO, there is no middle ground

well i think people visit these "rumor" threads precisely in the hope of seeing links posted about the latest developments...

Don't shoot the messenger [emoji63] https://twitter.com/zaeeemh/status/487299372158574592

that's the very best they can achieve imo, their best scenario if everything goes perfect in terms of injuries, other teams underperforming etc

why are you guys going in-depth in analyzing where and how he plays for arsenal, who cares? I've read some arse fans saying that with him, debuchy and a DM, they will battle for the premiership and have a great chance of winning it... lolz, even with all these signings everyone already knows they'll finish with their usual 4th place "trophy"

Well mangala played CL whereas zouma didn't so in fact mangala played in a higher level of competition... But regardless, i just go by the eye test and what i see and i rate mangala higher...Zouma should be good as well and maybe he makes more sense for the future seeing as jt still has at least teo years in him imo and that would have meant mangala sitting on the bench until jt is gone... Just hate to see such a good player being partnered with kompany... At least mangala said he preferred us lol

he's better than zouma, other than the transfer fee, don't know why we didn't go for him...

yes i have, have you seen what type of scorelines bayern rack up? Did you see them win the league with 10 games left? And which teams other than the top 2 are good? Schalke? Bremen? Leverkusen? Swansea would handle those teams and they came close to a relegation battle in the prem

in terms of defending it is... and even overall, there's bayern, dortmund then.... anyhow, i'm not saying this to say he won't be good, i love him as aplayer and would love to have him, just a side point..

apparently his dad said he isn't leaving dortmund this summer, don't know if that was before the france football article or after...

wow francefootball reporting we're in advanced talks with him? that's awesome, i really rate this guy and if we sold lukaku and got him, we could probably make a profit... hopefully we make this happen very reliabe afaik

did you guys see this? probably means nothing but still kinda cool Paul Pogba plays FM on france flight after game, plays with chelsea and pairs himself with lamps in midfield
