BlueLion. 21,491 Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Bertrand should be playing a minimum of ten Premier League games this season, in my opinion. Because not only he is ready, but because this Ashley Cole chap is nothing like the guy who was, in my opinion, our best player between 2008 and 2010.

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Lol I read some posts from last year's summer where BlueLion was defending Kalou and saying he is a good super-sub and a decent squad player yada yada, bringing out his impressive stats and stuff.. but now he's not far from Term X's hatred level towards Kalou FC Just goes to show what a shit season kalou hadI defended him out of naivety. I always held a belief I would fully support whoever wore the blue jersey. Now I've revised that notion to whoever wears the blue jersey and gives their best. I've become impatient with Kalou, five seasons without improvement is enough for even me to lose faith in him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDN Blue 7,903 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Meanwhile, Villas-Boas insists he is unfazed by a failure to secure the signature of Uruguay left-back Alvaro Pereira, who he managed at Porto. "We were very far from meeting Porto's demands for Alvaro. I am happy with Ashley Cole and Ryan Bertrand."Good to hear him name Bertrand.

termninja 5,290 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Good to hear him name Bertrand.He also said that it was maybe better that we didn't get Alvaro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 It's a shame though that some players play better then him even when they don't give a flying fu*k about the game well my way of thinking is i can forgive any lack of ability if they put effort in.Anyway i can remeber something when Kalou first joined don't know how much truth there is in it but i might aswell mention it now while i remember, apparently if Crespo left sooner than he did Kalou would have got the number 9 shirt.thoughts?

bluesman2610 1,417 Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 not a huge kalou fan but its hard to see the hate the player gets in these forums..especially as we call ourselves supporters of chelsea and its players..last season when we were in the depths of not gaining points kalou in a lot of those games was a bright spot to the team more than drogba more than lampard and some of the others..scored a few winners near the end of the season to even give us a chance to put pressure man u ...and all of a sudden he is a villian i dont buy it if he played and strung consecutive great performances would everyone switch how they feel about him..he has serviced the squad and i think we should just leave it at that...

Tomo 21,751 Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 What some fail to realise that we may not have won some off the trophies in recent years if it weren't for Kalou.Equaliser at home to Spurs which got a replay and saved home elimination, we went on to win the cup.Goal in the FA Cup 2 years later which prevented us exiting at home to Southend, we went on to win the cup.The early double against Stoke in the title decider which settled unbearable nerves.We would not have won 2 FA Cup's if it werent for Kalou goals saving us from elimination and who knows without his early double against Stoke the crowd would have got wrestless, the players would have started to panic and Stoke might have actually held us then bang, title gone.He should never be a starter but is a great impact sub as far im concerned, plus he always puts the effort in and runs his socks off, i can forgive any flaw in ability if they play their heart out. 1chelsea and bluesman2610 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Im not suprised that he is hear now and immediate back up to Cole, i have family that live up by Reading and saw a fair few Reading matches in 2009/2010 and i was impressed by Bertrand, i had a hard time trying to convince fellow Chelsea fans he was good enough and is actually better than Van Aanholt (at least at defending).I was always convinced he will make it and im now glad he is here and battling Cole, would have been better had he went on a prem loan last season tho having said that he played against Liverpool in the FA Cup for Reading and owned them.

Term-X 7,891 Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Lmao at these comments, the same arguments have been repeated & countered time and time again. In fact.. I imagine the Kalou defenders know this, which is why they choose to post now.i can forgive any flaw in ability if they play their heart out.'Ability' trumps 'playing your heart out', we are supporting one of europe's elite clubs here, not Accrington Stanley.
