Why the F*ck is he in the side?

[TorontoChelsea 4,064]

£5.4 for Pierluigia Casirahgi and one goal might qualify him for this item, but he did surrcombe to a serious knee injury. However, prior to his injury he couldn't find the goal with both hands......or feet for that matter.

What an awful injury it was too. Finished him completely. I give him a pass because he played so few games with us (10). And as bad as he was, 1 goal in 10 games was still triple the scoring rate of Chris Sutton in the league. 1 goal for $10M pounds (in 1999 when that was a lot of money!!!) Jesus...

I would expect a player worth of 32mill and his wages would have performed better against those teams mentioned rather than go missing and start drama with the ball boy. But, yet AGAIN, I will state that it his first season and I am truly aware of the potential he can achieve in the future. Placing judgement already would be unwise

You however, failed to respond in your blatant and humorous error and trying to disclaim that I have football knowledge, ultimately making you look like a Twat.

Yep that makes me look like a twat. Whereas insulting someone on a forum makes you look very wise.

Casiraghi was finding his feet just prior to the injury i thought, he could've been a great player for us, he was pretty unlucky in so many games, especially his debut at Coventry when Magnus Hedman decided to be the best gk in the world for an hour. I don't think anyone really thought "Why the fuck is he in the side?". And Crespo was very good at times too, especially with Drogs in a 4-4-2 in 05/06.

Regarding the "Why the F*ck is he in the side?" players...

Definitely Kalou in many games and Ambrosio in goal, Ambrosetti, De Lucas, Panucci. Last season Malouda was in that category as was Torres a lot in the last 12 months. Also Ross Turnbull, he's a nervous wreck, we need a better number 2 than him tbh, there's no trust at all in him from me. Where's Hilario? He's better.

You of course are quite correct in saying that he was better in that respect compared to Chris Sutton, regarding the money, Tony Hateleys £100,000 in 1966 was a fortune but on reflection he did score six goals in about 30 odd appearances...

How did everyone miss Ben Haim? This is a player I kept saying "Why the F*** is he in the side?" from the day he signed for us.

I don't remember you saying that, you always said that he was a distinct asset or was it an ass? It's the drugs I tell you.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Torres. All the shit going on about him from the price we paid to his impossible misses, hundred times returning in form (my ass) etc.

Just frustrating. He was supposed to be 50mio worth striker, but he never was. The fact that he was getting chance ahead of Ba and Danny is weird too.

[Changingman_2000 876]

I see your Gareth Hall and raise you an Andy Dow - that was the period when we seemed to buy a new left-back every year until we got Soxxy.

Then there were a few randoms like Laurent Charvet and Jes Hogh who were just place-fillers.

lol, forgot about Andy Dow.

Tom Boyd?, then swapped for Cascarino!

We could fill this thread with just left-backs from the mid-90s. Barness, Barnard and Myers (better as a centre-back) were all varying degrees of average.

Amazing when we had Dorigo, Boyd and Le Saux before then.

Clive Wilson as well, late 80's. In competition with Dorigo for a time, although he was also used further up. Decent player.

Joe Allon anyone? bought from Notts County (I think) around 91

He was indeed pony. Almost single handedly ruined Pompey too. Absurd wages and all thats wrong with modern football.

[Changingman_2000 876]

Joe Allon

I recall thinking.........could he be the next Kerry Dixon?

Marin these days or am I the only one who groans when hes in the team?

Also Torres and that wanker who shall not be named who wouldn't leave due to his high salary (yall know who I mean)

Who do you mean? I really have nothing against any Chelsea player, except for Torres lately, he's just a lazy c*nt. He doesn't run, etc.. Why do you hate Marin? You've got to give young players time.

I think Marins had a certain amount of games where now surely we'd have seen something at the required level to be a main player here, which we haven't.

Yossi Benaytraitor = the one who won't be named.

Whatever happened to Assier Del Horno?

Oh ofcourse, how could I forget about that.

Well, for some it takes time to settle in the Premier League.. Who could have expected Lukaku would have been where he is now in just a year. Oh, I hope they get him back next year and put the pal right up front. He's a f*cking beast. Not the new Drogba, but he's what we need, I can tell you that. I'm done with Spanish strikers, give us some black (no offence, meant positively) ones !
